Super Detective in the Fictional World

Whatever jokes Selina might crack about the little witch, the truth was that Big Dipper was indeed closer to Wanda.

But she wasn’t really a kid.

Big Dipper was cold and ruthless, and could be considered a ‘decent’ version of Wade.

In battle, he would occasionally talk crudely just to infuriate the enemy to death.

He wasn’t a taciturn person.

!!

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so ‘notorious’ among the ladies in Afterlife.

By the same logic, he was strict when it came to teaching, but was very easy to get along with outside of that — provided that he could accept the occasional poisonous tongue.

After a few days, even Pietro liked to chat with him, let alone Wanda.

After all, the serious Big Dipper was actually quite cheeky when it came to casual talk.

With what Jenny had given him, he could make a comeback of sorts.

Maybe it was because of his glory days of the past that he liked being flattered all the time, but her father never stopped obsessing about speculation.

Those who knew better didn’t dare get involved with Jenny’s father; that would be making an enemy of her.

So, he had been trying to get investment funds out of Jenny for the past two years.

Her father earned millions every year, and naturally wouldn’t look for Jenny for a ‘small project’ worth 10 to 20 million.

He had asked for 200 million at first, and then lowered the amount many times; 100 million was fine.

Of course, Jenny refused!

Her father had made a loss of more than a billion in 2008, and he himself had been almost 100 million in debt.

To prevent him from being sent to prison, Jenny had finally forked out almost 300 million.

For her sake, many people didn’t demand the exorbitant price of 500 million.

If her father now borrowed 200 million, and something else happened, wouldn’t she have to fork out another several hundred million?

Forking out hundreds of millions was rare, even for her father’s sake.

That was USD, not toilet paper.

If it were 2005, Jenny would probably be tearing her hair out.

Thankfully, it was the end of 2010 and, while she had already stepped down from the managerial positions of several major companies, she had a lot of connections and resources; it was basically impossible for anyone to threaten her through her father.

So, although her father’s problem was a headache, it was ultimately just a family matter.

As long as she was patient and didn’t give him a chance to squander money, Jenny didn’t have to worry about anything untoward happening.

In the name of visiting her ‘boss,’ Catherine, Jenny visited Texas again for the holidays, and was enjoying himself. She also envied Luke’s family.

If her family cared less about money, she might not have to hide here.
