My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 821

Jaxon calmed himself down and slowly made his way to his tiny wooden cabin.

Felicity pursed her lips and followed after him.

The cabin was sparsely decorated. Other than a table and chair, the only other piece of furniture inside was a meditation cushion.

A piece of silk with a picture of Jesus embroidered on it hung from his wall.

Jaxon took 500 dollars from the box on his bedside table. He had gotten this money in exchange for spending half a year weaving baskets.

He also needed to purchase medicinal herbs when he provided medical treatment to the villagers.

Although some of the herbs could be sourced from the mountains, most still needed to be purchased from apothecaries.

Felicity glanced at Jaxon’s box and asked, “Is 500 dollars all the money you have?”

Jaxon replied calmly, “It’s just enough to get by!”

Felicity took 400 dollars, leaving Jaxon with a hundred dollars. “Come see me next time you’re in Sagen. I’ll repay you tenfold!”

After a moment’s thought, she took off her left earring and placed it in Jaxon’s hand. “Just in case you don’t believe me, I’ll use my earring as collateral. This is one of Van Cleef and Arpels’ finest pieces of jewelry. It's worth over 35 million dollars. Don’t lose it!”

She turned and walked away after saying that.

Jaxon stood rooted to the spot in shock.

This tiny thing… was worth over 35 million dollars?

He was not money-driven, but the price still shocked him.

Letting out a soft sigh, he put the money and earring back into the box, which he then placed beside his pillow. Then, he walked over to his statues and began meditating.

After Felicity said her goodbyes to Yana and the mayor, the mayor gave her a ride to the nearest train station.

She spent an hour getting herself a temporary identification card and then another hour waiting in line to get train tickets. All she managed to get was a standing ticket, which meant she would have to spend the next six hours standing.

“God, there isn’t even a high-speed rail station here… I can’t believe this!”

Felicity had never been this flabbergasted in her life.

The next time she took a long trip, she would ask her grandfather to let her use one of his helicopters.
