Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1004 A Reunion Of Sisters

“I’ve already had someone secretly take the real crown back to Yu Sea City and hand it over to my grandfather.

What’s in the bag now is a fake crown that I asked Terence to make. We need to be careful now that everyone knows that we’re back.”

“What? Madam, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I was so worried,”

Carol said as she wiped the tears that formed at the corner of her eyes.

“If I had told you, we wouldn’t have deceived them so easily,”

Carla said as she patted Carol on her shoulder. “Well, the sun is almost up now. We have to find a bank and withdraw some cash as soon as possible. Otherwise, we’d run into trouble.”

Lucia had been in charge of Yu Sea City for so long now, so she surely had a lot of connections. She would only need to make one phone call to test if the crown was real or not.

But for now, Carla still had the real gold crown. She now had 50 million without even trying.

“Yes, madam!”

Carol said as her eyes lit up in excitement.

Soon, they arrived at Yu Sea City.

It was already morning by then.

The first thing Carla did was to go to the bank to withdraw some cash and transfer money into her account. Afterwards, she went to the courtyard to meet Andrea.

But as soon as she saw Andrea, she felt that something was wrong.

“Mom, what’s wrong?”

At her voice, Andrea stopped her train of thought and looked at Carla. “Oh, nothing. Don’t mind me, Callie. Did everything go well during your trip?”

“Of course. I’ve always been blessed. Everything went well! You look a bit worried. What’s wrong?”

Carla asked with concern and sat beside her.

Queen Eleanor’s birthday party was starting at ten o’clock that morning, so they still had some time to kill before they had to start preparing.

Andrea continued to look at Carla, who was still optimistic despite everything. She didn’t know what to say. Carla would find out about it sooner or later so she might as well break the news to her.

“Callie, I’m useless. The Eastern Tribe and the Northern Tribe both have decided to support Lucia. The Western Region would wanted remain neutral. And I’m afraid that we have very low ch

satisfying life these years as a rich lady. Look at you. You look almost as young as the teenage girls of Yu Sea City. It’s hard to tell that you are from here!”

Dorothy said sarcastically, putting on a fake smile on her face. Girls raised in Yu Sea City tended to be coarse and unrefined.

And they were proud of it.

They thought their homeland was the best.

“Dorothy, you have changed a lot. I could hardly recognize you now. I suppose… You must have taken a lot of birth-control herbs these years,”

Andrea said with a smile.

Unlike anywhere else, the women of Yu Sea City were open-minded. If they were attracted to a man, they wouldn’t hold themselves back. They would make the first move and get to know him. That didn’t mean they wanted to get pregnant though, so they often took traditional birth-control herbs.

Taking the herbs several times could prevent them from getting pregnant. They were convenient and safe for women.

But there were some side effects.

Dorothy’s complexion had become darker. She had an appetite bigger than most women her age. Even now that she was older than 50, she still had many men around her. So she still had to take the herbs from time to time.

“Hey, Steven!”

Before Dorothy could respond, Lucia noticed Steven not too far away from them.

He was already moving towards them so she met him halfway.

Carla’s eyes followed Lucia’s figure as she met Steven.

Lucia took Steven by his arm and led him towards Carla with a smug look on her face.
