“Pete, we… We’ll pay!”

May shuddered with fear when she heard what Peter said. She quickly stammered out a response before taking out her phone and started making calls.

Lily was cowering beside May and had also started contacting her friends.

Even though May and Lily came from well-off families, they had not reached the point of being wealthy.

As such, fifty thousand dollars was a huge sum to them.

Ten minutes later, the two of them had contacted all of their friends on Facebook.

However, no one was willing to lend the two of them money.

“May, what do we do now? None of my friends are willing to lend me some money…”

Lily said in a choked voice. She was feeling so anxious that she was about to cry.

“How would I know what to do? All of my friends are saying they don’t have money…” May said helplessly while frowning.

Lily hesitated for a moment and said lowly, “May, I heard from Mandy today that Connor might have hit the jackpot for a lottery scratchcard. That’s why he had the money to treat everyone to a meal yesterday. Why don’t you give him a call and ask him to lend the two of us some money?”

“We humiliated him badly yesterday. Would he still lend us money?” May asked hesitantly.

“Well, we can’t find anyone else right now. Why don’t we give it a try…”

“Alright!” May nodded helplessly and dialed Connor’s number.

In the classroom.

Connor saw May’s incoming call. He did not even have to think to know what was happening, so he immediately declined her call.

May did not give up. She dialed his number again.

“Who’s this?” Connor asked with an unfamiliar tone.

“Connor, it’s me. I need a hundred thousand dollars right now. Could you lend it to me?”
