Chapter 1691: 411: This is a tactic of loosening the reins to grasp better!_3 Chapter 1691: 411: This is a tactic of loosening the reins to grasp better!_3 Sabrina Sabir hesitated.
A 75-year-old man.
Ten years her elder.
How could she face her relatives and friends if they knew about this?
No.
This wouldn't do.
Selling her daughter to a 75-year-old man for 1 million dollars was simply inhumane!
Sabrina Sabir looked up at the matchmaker and said, “I want 2 million dollars!”
Since she had already decided to sell her daughter.
Why not just ask for 2 million dollars?
After all, the old man wasn't short on money.
And whether she asked for 1 million or 2 million, she would be criticized just the same, so might as well ask for more.
That way, Christina Armstrong's value could be maximized.
Upon hearing this, the matchmaker's eyes widened in shock.
What was Sabrina Sabir saying?
2 million dollars!
Wasn't this asking for the moon?
The matchmaker had thought that as a mother, Sabrina Sabir would refuse such a deal.
After all, Christina Armstrong was still just a young girl.
And that old man was already in his seventies.
The matchmaker incredulously asked, “Did you say 2 million dollars?”
“Yes.”
With that, Sabrina Sabir stood up from her chair and continued, “Sherry, please go back and tell the man, 2 million dollars, not a penny less.”
With that 2 million dollars, who would dare look down on her!
After saying this, Sabrina Sabir turned and walked away.
The matchmaker watched her leave, frowning subtly.
She had certainly put it bluntly!
Sabrina Sabir soon returned home.
Edward Armstrong had already prepared dinner.
At that moment, Edward Armstrong was sitting alone at the dining table drinking, while Christina Armstrong was playing with her phone on her bed.
Seeing this, Sabrina Sabir frowned slightly and asked, “Where is George?”
“In his room.”
Upon hearing this, Sabrina Sabir said sympathetically, “The child isn't coming out to eat. Isn't he hungry?”
Sabrina Sabir spoke as she walked towards George's room.
She quickly reached the door.
Sabrina Sabir knocked and called out, “George.”
There was no response.
Sabrina Sabir sighed, knowing her son must be angry!
If she were in his place, she would be angry too.
800,000 Dollars was not a small amount.
Even now, just thinking about it made her heart ache.
But thinking of the impending 2 million dollars, Sabrina Sabir suddenly felt nothing at all.
What was 800,000 Dollars compared to 2 million?
A smile returned to Sabrina Sabir's face as she said, “George, open the door. Mom has something very important to tell you!”
“We're about to have 2 million dollars in savings.”
2 million dollars?
Upon hearing this, George got up and opened the door.
Seeing her son finally open the door, Sabrina Sabir was very happy.
“George.”
“What's going on?” George asked with some coldness.
“What do you mean 'what's going on'?” Sabrina Sabir was momentarily startled.
George, growing impatient, asked, “What's this about 2 million dollars!”
Sabrina Sabir then realized and said with a smile, “Here's the thing, George…”
Upon hearing everything, an expression of disgust appeared on George's face. “How is this any different from selling your daughter?!”
Selling your blooming-age daughter to a man over seventy for 2 million dollars, how is that different from selling your daughter?
That's just disgusting!
George could not understand why he had ended up with such parents.
A father without backbone.
A mother who was scandalous.
At first startled, Sabrina Sabir then said with a smile, “George, why would you say that! It's always been said, 'marry a man for food and clothing,' and it's a blessing for your sister to marry such a man. If your future brother-in-law can come up with 2 million dollars just like that, it shows he's no ordinary man. Who knows, he might even be able to support our family one day!”
Having said this, Sabrina Sabir paused, then continued, “I've already decided, we'll use the 2 million dollars to buy you a car for commuting. You like that BMW, right? Let's buy that first, and the remaining 1 million dollars will go as a down payment for a house for you. As for the loan, we'll have your sister pay it later.”
Housing prices in Southern City are 30,000 Dollars per square meter, putting 1 million dollars down and paying seven or eight thousand a month should do.
Christina Armstrong, having married into wealth, naturally wouldn't mind that seven or eight thousand dollars.
George looked at Sabrina Sabir and then said, “You've already arranged everything?”
“Yes.”
George frowned slightly.
Selling your daughter for glory was truly disgusting, yet now, Sabrina Sabir had arranged everything, and as a younger family member, he had no place to say anything, he could only comply with the elders' arrangements.
