Clearly, Wendy hadn’t noticed a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suzy lowered her head and pretended to glance at her watch. \"Dad, Sis, I still have something to take care of, so I’ll be heading out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn’t say anything in response––their objectives had already been achieved. Their thoughts were no longer on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few perfunctory words of polite insistence, they watched Suzy leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once she stepped out of the villa, a cool breeze brushed against her face. She let out a long breath, her brows relaxing as the tension melted away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The weak, innocent façade she’d worn vanished without a trace, leaving only a satisfied smile behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a worthless contract and a fake gold pendant, she’d reclaimed everything she’d left in the Kale household, and even walked away with three million in cash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a bad deal at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suzy happily got into her car. She started the engine and drove toward her university—A University.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were still three months before the apocalypse. And with the end of the world coming, who the hell still cared about going to class?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suzy planned to apply for a leave of absence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she suddenly disappeared, her academic advisor would probably call George Kale and inform him of her absence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they noticed something was off, it would only invite unnecessary trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Suzy left, the air in the living room seemed to grow lighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George Kale clutched the signed agreement, barely able to suppress the excitement on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was finally his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona Smith hurried over, her eyes fixed on the documents in his hand. \"Did it work?\" she asked eagerly, the greed and delight in her gaze impossible to hide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George smiled smugly. \"Of course. That airhead didn’t suspect a thing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona’s entire body trembled with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over a billion was now in her hands—just like that! That was more than a billion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what if Elisabeth Ashford had been such a good wife to George and an amazing woman overall? She’d left behind all that wealth, and in the end, it still fell into their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy, who had been sitting nearby, finally put down his phone after overhearing them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, since you got all that money for free, you should at least give me a share of it. It’s only fair.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George looked at his precious son—the heir he’d worked so hard to have—and nodded repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course. Of course I’ll spend money on you. You’ll get anything you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy straightened up, a glint flashing in his eyes. \"How much are you planning to give me then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George waved his hand generously. \"I’ll transfer fifty million to you later. Spend it however you like.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy frowned. \"That’s too little, isn’t it? You got over a billion for free, and you’re only giving me fifty million? Make it a hundred million.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hundred million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George hesitated briefly, but then agreed. After all, it was money that had fallen into his lap. He didn’t feel the sting, especially when it was for his beloved son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wendy spoke up as well. \"Dad, I want some too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hundred million at least. With that much money, she wouldn’t have to worry about stockpiling supplies anymore. Easy gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George had always doted on his eldest daughter and agreed without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright. You’ll get some too. Once the paperwork is finalized, I’ll transfer the money to both of you right away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he finished speaking, George picked up his phone and called his personal lawyer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Wendy clutched the gold pendant and headed for her room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The funding issue was solved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next came the space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering her room, she hurriedly shut the door and locked it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did she open the box again and take out the round, gleaming gold pendant once more.\u003C\u002Fp>",659,"2026-05-30T15:23:36.664Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.774Z",1,"novelbin.me","9c2bbc10a409f2d3f703d055120847068121c00a41e114c793ec02c981e9f4d7","sickly-cannon-fodder-spoiled-by-the-powerful-apo-chapter-9","sickly-cannon-fodder-spoiled-by-the-powerful-apo-chapter-7",210,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsickly-cannon-fodder-spoiled-by-the-powerful-apo-cover.jpg"]
