Betrayed on Deal Day

On the day the weapons deposit was due, my fiancé suddenly gave the money to a rival family’s daughter.

A subordinate reminded him, “Don Sanchez, what about Miss Anna?”

“For the sake of this weapons deal, Miss Anna hasn’t bought a single new dress for three years. If she finds out you gave the hard-earned deposit to Miss Lily, won’t she be angry?”

Jackson only curled his lips indifferently. “Anna? It’s fine. She has the password to my safe.

“Even if she knows I gave the money to someone else, she’ll just sell her jewelry and make up the amount.

“She loves me and can’t be without me. It won’t affect our wedding.”

I stood at the door, listening in silence.

Then I smiled, turned, and left as if I had heard nothing.

I didn’t urge him to pay the deposit, nor did I ask about the weapons deal.

What Jackson didn’t know was that while he was trying to please Lily, I was pursuing my own goals.

Even my years of frugality were never for him.

I stood at the door, listening to Jackson Sanchez’s words in silence.

That money totaled ten million dollars.

Every cent was something I had saved over the past few years through careful budgeting.

For three years, hundreds of days and nights, I, who once loved fashion, didn’t buy a single dress. I even cut back on food.

Every expense was planned, as I was always afraid of overspending and not saving enough for the deposit.

I did all this for the sake of this family.

So that he could successfully secure that batch of weapons, and his father would approve our marriage.

I didn’t expect that after finally saving this money, he would give all of it to Lily Wilson to buy jewelry, just to please her.

Inside the room, his subordinate couldn’t help but speak up for me.

“Don Sanchez, that was all of Miss Anna’s savings after such a long time.

“She will be angry if she finds out.”

Jackson let out a cold laugh. “Does it matter whether she’s angry?”

“I’ve already given the money to Lily. Even if Anna finds out, what can she do to me? She can’t leave me.”

Jackson picked up his glass of red wine and swirled it.

“You don’t understand Anna. She can’t be without me now. For the sake of marrying me, she would do anything.”

The subordinate still hesitated. “But this is not a small amount. It’s ten million. Even if Miss Anna wants to make it up, it won’t be easy.”

Jackson frowned, showing some displeasure.

“Since she knows it’s not a small amount, can’t she ask her parents for it?

“Besides, Lily and I grew up together. I know her best. She’s delicate and cares about her image. If she wears cheap jewelry to her birthday party, others will criticize her, and she will
