New River Community wasn't far from Ramblas Avenue. The market place would be right next to the avenue.

Coincidentally, the newly reopened pharmacy started a publicity campaign.

Free eggs!

Although only five were given to each person and the price was less than two Yuan, it was still tempting for the middle-aged and elderly people who were calculative.

On the way back from grocery shopping, Mary Grimm queued for more than an hour just to get a few eggs. Then, she returned home in high spirits!

"Mom!"

"We've already rented the shop. I believe that in less than two days, we'll be able to get the documents." Emilia said with excitement.

"The clinic can officially open for business!"

She couldn't wait to share the good news with her mother, who had suffered with her for years.

After all, as children, they wanted to make their elders at home feel at ease!

"Oh, really?"

After Mary Grimm heard this, she laughed happily. "Today's a double blessing!"

"What other good news do we have?" Emilia asked as she was confused.

She really didn't expect that there would be another happy event at home.

Even if cash was falling out of the sky, they would never be hit by it.

"Mom, what's the matter? Why are you so happy?"

Oliver Walker was getting interested as well. He sat on a small stool and helped to clean the celery.

After all, he couldn't just be a freeloader!

"I got five free eggs!"

"This pharmacy owner is really kind. He gave everyone five eggs!" Mary Grimm said with a smile. 

"Once Olivia comes back from school, I'll stew an egg for her to replenish her nutrition."

Both Oliver Walker and Emily were embarrassed.

This ...

How could getting five eggs for free be considered a good thing?

This was especially so for Emilia. She had just given away five hundred thousand dollars in the morning and she was still grumbling in her heart. She kept feeling that something bad was going to happen!

Oliver Walker continued asking instead. "Where did you get it? Do you need to apply for a membership? "

After all, it was indeed something to be happy about when his mother-in-law was happy.

However, many stores would use the excuse of giving small gifts for free to collect personal information from citizens.

There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world!

"Nothing of that sort!"

Mary Grimm immediately denied, "No! I would be able to tell if it was a scam."

"These eggs are free indeed!"

"It's so lively there!"

"It's at the pharmacy on Ramblas Avenue. There's a long queue!"

When the location was mentioned, the atmosphere dropped to a freezing point!

Emilia's heart, which was already pounding. It suddenly jumped into her throat as she asked anxiously. "The pharmacy you mentioned...is it No. 18 on Ramblas Avenue?"

Oliver Walker also noticed that something was wrong. He and his wife had visited that place but there was no pharmacy that was newly opened!

The only possibility was the shop that they rented!

It was a public pharmacy in business but because the rent was due, it had only been closed for two days.

Now that his wife had already paid for the rent and they were open for business. What did this mean?





This was a huge problem!

"Yes, yes. yes ..." Mary Grimm quickly answered.

"That's the one! Is there a second pharmacy on Ramblas Avenue?"

When the truth was revealed, Emilia felt as if she had been struck by lightning and the sky was about to collapse!

Why did the shop that she had just rented in the morning reopen in the afternoon?

Could it be ...

She got tricked?!

"Emilia?"

"You .. What's wrong with you?"

After Mary Grimm saw the change in her daughter's expression, she realized something had gone wrong.

At this moment, Emiliano longer had the time to care.

That was five hundred thousand yuan! The retirement fee that her husband had exchanged for with his life on the front line!

She would kill herself if all that money got scammed!

Then, she got up and rushed out of the house with a panicking heart.
