Chapter 124
Laci’s heart was filled with excitement. “Does speaking count?” she asked.
“Of course,” Kaleb replied.
Laci carefully took out her phone from her pocket, holding it tightly in her hands as she operated it. Her eyes occasionally glanced at the police, afraid that they might see her transaction password and try to snatch her phone.
After two minutes of operation, Laci was overjoyed and proudly placed the phone in front of Kaleb and the police. She said excitedly, “See, see, I told you it can withdraw money. This platform is real, it’s real. You promised to compensate me ten times.”
I glanced at the amount of money she withdrew and said, “Why did you only withdraw one hundred thousand? There are still over two million left to be withdrawn.”
“I just need to prove that this platform is real,” Laci said with a proud smile, her obese body wiggling with joy as she looked at Kaleb. “My brother–in–law is a wealthy man, you know. He always keeps his word.”
Kaleb sneered, “Laci’s greed was too strong, unwilling to give up the temptation of high profits on the platform, and wanting to earn ten times the compensation from me. Where in the world does such a good thing exist? If you can’t retrieve all the principal, I won’t give you a single penny.”
Laci gritted her teeth and pondered for a moment. Greed made her choose the latter, with twice the profit from the platform and ten times the profit from Kaleb.
Afraid that Kaleb would go back on his word, she pointed at the police and me and said, “Did you both hear? He promised me ten times over with his own mouth. You must testify.”
I nodded quickly.“Laci, you go withdraw the money, take as much as you can, hurry…”
Laci reluctantly watched the platform that was continuously accumulating money, operating it slowly and sluggishly. The police officer peeped to look, and she intentionally dodged for a moment.
In less than two minutes, her face changed suddenly, and she instantly panicked, her voice trembling, “I just withdrew one hundred thousand, why can’t I withdraw now?”
