chapter 9 Please give me my husband back!

Karen Chen did have this plan. Of course, the precondition was to make sure that the money did indeed belong to Pryor Ye.

Karen Chen's voice trembled as she said, "Pryor Ye, when you had no money and no power, I was by your side! Now that you have money, do you want to dump me? No way!"

Pryor Ye sighed, "So, are you willing to reconcile with me?"

Karen Chen was overjoyed, "Yes, I'm willing."

"Now that you have this five million, you are worthy of me!"

Pryor Ye said, "Alright, let's go get our marriage certificate."

"By the way, do you have any money on you? I don't have any. It seems like we need ten yuan for the registration fee."

Karen Chen was stunned, "What do you mean? Aren't there five million here?"

Pryor Ye replied, "This money isn't mine. Actually, I'm so broke right now that I can't even afford breakfast."

Karen Chen was astonished, "It's not yours, and you can't even afford breakfast with it?"

"Damn, you're still that poor guy. I told you, you couldn't even come up with thirty thousand yuan for a dowry, how could you have five million?"

"Just a poor guy like you wants to marry me? Dream on!"

Pryor Ye shook his head slightly. How did he not notice before that Karen Chen was so materialistic?

Nelly Xu asked curiously, "It's not yours? Then where did this five million come from?"

Pryor Ye pretended to be mysterious, "Have you forgotten what my identity is?"

Nelly Xu said, "Aren't you just a salesperson at our steel mill? What does this have to do with five million?"

Karen Chen laughed, "A salesperson from a small factory. You actually have the nerve to say you want to marry me. That's a laugh."

Knowing that Pryor Ye couldn't compare to her, Pryor Ye felt much more at ease.

Pryor Ye handed a contract to Nelly Xu and said, "This is an order I secured for our factory today. The five million is an advance payment."

Ah!

Nelly Xu hastily took the contract. She couldn't imagine how big the order must be to require a five million advance payment. After reading the contract, Nelly Xu was in tears of joy.

"The steel mill is saved, Mom! We don't have to go bankrupt!"

"How is that possible!" Karen Chen ran up like a madwoman and snatched the contract to read it.

After reading it, Karen Chen's eyes turned red. Pryor Ye had actually secured a one-billion-yuan order from the richest family in Linhai! That was at least ten million in pure profit, two five million!

Pryor Ye was once again the millionaire he used to be, one hit after another, and Karen Chen was starting to lose her mind.

She howled, "Pryor Ye, you... you were just playing me!"

Pryor Ye shrugged, "I wasn't playing you. I'm just a small salesperson, and this order belongs to Nelly Xu. It has nothing to do with me."

"I don't care!" Karen Chen hysterically pleaded, "Pryor Ye, let's get married. Let's go get the certificate now."

"If you give me this order, I can even take you to the grand debut event of Ye Shuai."

With this order, she could earn tens of millions in commission. Although she had an invitation to Ye Shuai's event, the invitation could only bring her power and status, not real money.

Pryor Ye ignored her and walked up to Nelly Xu. "Nelly Xu, stop crying. This order from the Shen family is urgent. Let's start working right away."

Nelly Xu wiped her tears and said, "Yes, let's start working right away."

Saying that, Nelly Xu started to call the employees to start working. However, Karen Chen wouldn't let them leave.

She hurriedly approached and desperately begged, "Nelly Xu, I'm begging you. Give Pryor Ye back to me."

"Pryor Ye, the invitation can bring us power and status. With this order, we can start a big company together."

"We are a perfect match. Please give me a chance, and give yourself a chance!"

Pryor Ye looked at Nelly Xu and said calmly, "You don't need to beg me. If Pryor Ye wants to return to your side, he can come back anytime."

Karen Chen glanced at Pryor Ye, who said, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. I can't help it."

Karen Chen blushed, thinking of the words she had just mocked him with: "You're not qualified to marry me." Now that reconciliation was out of the question, she could only seek the next best thing.

She cried and pleaded with Nelly Xu, "Nelly Xu, please, you must supply my company this time. Otherwise, the Fang family won't let me off! Don't you want to see me beaten to death by the Fang family?"

Nelly Xu softened her heart, sighed, and nodded, "Thank you, thank you." Karen Chen forced a smile and then quickly left, afraid that Nelly Xu might change her mind.

"Do you blame me for helping her?" Nelly Xu asked Pryor Ye cautiously.

Pryor Ye shook his head, "Do you know what I like most about you?"

Nelly Xu blushed and asked, "What?"

Pryor Ye replied, "Kindness."

Nelly Xu stomped her foot in annoyance, "Are you implying that I'm not good-looking?"

Pryor Ye remained silent.

Women's hearts are as deep as the ocean. Nelly Xu was angry and didn't pay attention to Pryor Ye. Instead, she called the workers to start working.

"Brothers, get up and work. Starting today, your wages will double."

The workers were overjoyed and started working enthusiastically.

"Thank you, boss."

"Thank you, boss lady."

Pryor Ye happily handed a pack of cigarettes to one of the workers just because he called Nelly Xu "boss lady."

"Pah!" Nelly Xu blushed.

Pryor Ye then looked at the ten burly men brought by Karen Chen and furrowed his brow, "You haven't done anything yet? It seems I have to take action myself."

Suddenly, a burly man in the crowd knelt down with a thud, tears and snot streaming down his face as he slapped himself in the ear.

"I was wrong, I deserve to die. I shouldn't have acted out. Grandpa, spare my life, please."

Pryor Ye sneered, "The act of pretending to be injured won't work here. Leave your hands and feet behind."

Mamie Li, who had been clutching the password box tightly, finally came to her senses. She hurriedly shouted, "Ah, no need, no need. Don't hurt him. Just let him slap himself a hundred times, but don't cut off his hands."

Mamie Li was just an ordinary woman and couldn't bear to watch someone get their hands or feet chopped off.

Pryor Ye said, "You should thank my mom."

The big man kowtowed in gratitude.

Mamie Li, with mixed emotions, said to Pryor Ye, "Although I still don't agree with your marriage, I have to thank you for saving Nelly Xu's factory."

Pryor Ye replied, "I just did what I should do."

Mamie Li hesitated several times but finally spoke up, "After Karen Chen attends the debut event, her status will definitely rise. Coupled with the Fang family's threat, your days won't be easy. Be careful in the future."

Pryor Ye nodded, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. Mamie Li's underlying message was that she wouldn't interfere in this marriage anymore, so he should just let it run its course.

Mamie Li patted the password box, "I'll deposit this money into your bank account for you in case of any future needs."

Pryor Ye suddenly remembered something and hurriedly took out a purple bank card from his pocket.

"This is a meeting gift from me to you. Please accept it. With this card, you can enjoy super VIP treatment when depositing and withdrawing money, without having to wait in line."

"The password is Nelly Xu's birthday."

This purple bank card was called the "Royal Card," with only 99 cards issued globally. It could overdraft up to one billion yuan.

Nelly Xu looked at the bank card and her eyes lit up. This kind of bank card seemed familiar; she had seen it on TV before. However, she couldn't recall the details at the moment.

Mamie Li didn't think much of it and thought it was just a regular VIP card, not something particularly valuable. She picked it up and left.

Just as she left, a row of black luxury cars suddenly stopped at the factory gate, and a group of men in suits and leather shoes got out.

Nelly Xu became nervous instantly, "Oh no."
