Feigning composure, Hailey told the Hoffman family, "Of course, I know I can't cast pearls before swine. If you don't want such a fine thing, there's nothing I can do about it." With that, Hailey took back the ring. With a smile, Maeve said, "That's the way, Mrs. Brooks Senior. I'll accompany you to get the cash." Maeve held onto Hailey's hand, leaving her no choice but to take Maeve to the room.
Hailey opened the large leather suitcase again, revealing countless gold bars. Maeve glanced at it casually, and her face lit up with surprise. "Mrs. Brooks Senior, I didn't realize you were so wealthy." "The Scott family may be a prestigious, scholarly family, but I doubt you've ever seen so much personal wealth." Hailey proudly stroked the gold bars, but Maeve just smiled and said, “Even though what's in this leather suitcase is more than most people make in a lifetime, it doesn't look like a billion dollars to me."

Hailey sneered, "Marve, you finally reveal your true colors. Lettell you, you will never get a single cent from me!" "Mrs. Brooks Senior, you've gotwrong. I don't want anything of yours. But if you can't cup with the money today, you might becthe laughingstock of Seathburn City tomorrow." Maeve's words left Hailey in a bind.
Maeve smiled and took her hand before saying, "Mrs. Brooks Senior, I'm doing this to help you, not take anything from you. I can lend you the money, but I think the items in this leather suitcase aren't worth that much.

"So, why don't you use this leather suitcase as collateral? We can sign an agreement, and when you have your one billion, I'll return the leather suitcase to you, untouched." Hailey frowned as she looked at Maeve. “Are you really that kind-hearted?”
