Chapter6 The next day at noon , I arrived at the loan company .
I had asked around and found that this place had relatively low interest rates , and they had an unspoken rule .
They dont lend too much or for too long on installment plans .
I walked in , my high heels clicking on the floor .
Inside , a group of people were gathered around playing cards .
Hey , its a woman ? A man with a cigarette looked up at me .
1/12 Chapter6 + 5 Points Women cant borrow money ? I raised an eyebrow .
The man smiled .
Of course , you can .
He then had one of his subordinates hand me a contract .
Name , address , ID number , amount , repayment date , fill all of this out .
I took it and signed it without hesitation .
The man raised an eyebrow .
Pretty quick ? Before he could finish speaking , his eyes widened when he saw the amount .
Three million ? He threw the contract down .
That much , and you want cash ? No way .
I took a deep breath .
I urgently need it , I must have it right now .
Whatever the 2/12 Chapter 6 + 5 Points conditions , I can meet them .
At that moment , the door to the side room opened , and Joseph walked out , long legs striding confidently .
Bertha , why didnt you ask me for money ? Joseph asked .
I owe you a favor , I replied calmly .
I had considered asking him for help , but after the last time with the car rental , he had already helped me .
The man at the loan company saw Joseph and asked , Big brother , do you know her ? Big brother ? I froze .
This company was Josephs ? 3/12 Chapter6 + 5 Points Upon hearing this , I said nothing more and turned to leave .
Wait ! Joseph crouched down and picked up the contract .
I turned back and saw him handing it to me .
Forget it , I know youre stubborn .
Ill lend you the money according to the terms , with the repayment date at the end of the month .
His gaze was deep , concealing emotions I couldnt quite read .
Thanks .
I took the contract .
Joseph looked at me , as if he wanted to say something , but I interrupted him , I also need one of your subordinates .
Joseph swallowed his words and nodded , 4/12 Chapter6 + 5 Points calling over the man who had been smoking .
I knew Joseph had feelings for me .
What he wanted to say was probably about that .
But right now , I had no interest in discussing love or relationships .
Besides , I had lost trust in men a long time ago .
I gave Marta a set of earpieces so I could hear her and Irvins conversations in real time .
Through the villas surveillance cameras , I could see them moving around the place .
5/12 Chapter 6 + 5 Points Marta , in a red dress , sat on the sofa , sipping a glass of wine .
You came to find me , arent you afraid Bertha will find out ? Irvin smiled .
You made it so obvious last time .
I cant pretend I didnt notice .
He walked over and hugged Marta .
I watched impassively .
The timing was just right .
As they sat down and had a few drinks , there was a knock at the door .
It was one of Josephs subordinates .
I had instructed him to deliver the money as per my plan .
6/12 Chapter 6 + 5 Points Seeing Marta , the man handed over several bags of cash .
Cora , this is the last dividend .
Marta nodded and smiled as she opened the bags .
She took out two stacks of money and handed them to the man .
Good , this is your payment for running errands .
The man smiled and took the money .
After moving the cash to the coffee table , he left .
Irvin stared at the piles of money , his eyes gleaming .
You give so much just for running errands , you really are generous .
Marta , sitting carelessly on the sofa , responded , Its just small change .
Every week someone brings me this , no need to 7/12 Chapter 6 + 5 Points care about a few tens of thousands .
Irvin looked up , I dont know what kind of business you do to make so much money ? Marta moved closer , placing her leg on Irvins lap and wrapping her arm around his neck .
Investments .
I have informants ; every time I invest , I make a fortune in just a few days .
Irvin still seemed a bit hesitant .
He pushed Marta away .
Cora , youre Berthas cousin .
We … I was listening closely, and I could tell Irvin was testing Marta .
Marta smiled and stood up .
Dont worry , Bertha is the kind of person who looks down on others .
Id never be sincere with her .
Irvin sighed in relief , seemingly reassured .
8/12 Chapter6 + 5 Points After a while , he said , Cora , Im currently lacking money to invest in a project .
Im not asking you to give me money , but could you help me with the business ? Marta snorted .
You think Id help you without anything in return ? I was watching everything unfold with a sense of satisfaction .

Irvin had fallen for the trap .
After their brief conversation , Marta received a call from Irvin inviting her out again .
She replied briefly and told him the address of the villa I had already rented .
Once the call ended , Marta looked thoughtful .
Irvin agreed , but what about the 9/12 Chapter 6 + 5 Points three million ? I punched the sandbag again , my mind filled with thoughts of Irvins deceitful nature .
Ill have someone deliver it at noon .
Just tell him its money you earned from your business .
But if he asks you to bring him along , dont agree .
Why ? Marta asked in confusion .
Irvin is very suspicious .
If you agree immediately , it will seem too obvious , I stopped and wiped the sweat from my face .
Let him see the money .
If you refuse to bring him into your business , hell think youre after him , not just the money .
Once this step is completed , Irvins doubts will fade away .
10/12 Chapter 6 + 5 Points After that , retrieving the assets will be much easier … Marta thought for a moment and gave me a thumbs up .
Clever ! Irvin had indeed fallen for it .
Seeing Martas praise , Irvins eyes flickered , and he reached to hold her .
When I first met you , I could tell you were different .
He reached for her , but Marta immediately grabbed his hand and laughed .
Not in the mood today , maybe next time .
With that , she walked over , opened the door , and asked Irvin to leave .
Irvin exhaled in relief and rolled his eyes at her retreating figure .
11/12 Chapter 6 + 5 Points When Marta turned back , he immediately put on a smile and said , Alright .
12/12
