In such a situation, her only option was to borrow money, and the only person she could borrow from was Faye. Even if she was unwilling, she had no choice but to accommodate.
As soon as she got home, Tessa Caldwell asked with a shameless face, "Faye, can you lend me some money?"
Faye was surprisingly easy to talk to this time and directly asked her, "How much do you need?"
"Five thousand." Tessa held up one hand. Then she added, "Don't worry, I'll pay you back."
Faye's expression turned sour instantly; it was clear he didn't like Tessa's use of the word "pay back."
He replied coldly, "Wasn't it this morning that you looked like you could do without ever seeing me again, afraid of any entanglements with me? At that time, in your mind, our relationship hadn't reached the point where we could lend money to each other, right?"
"Why are you so stingy?" Tessa frowned.
