Goodbye Mr Ex I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1320

Marion came back, and Randy pretended to whistle, acting like he hadn't said a word.

Debra turned to see Marion holding the ledger.

"Was someone badmouthing me?" he asked.

Randy shook his head. "No way. Everyone was praising you as a role model for modern men."

"Really?"

"Absolutely."

Erica smacked his arm. "Stop the joke and let's see the ledger."

Debra spread it and said, "Based on our calculations, the Houston family's foreign goods business made 300 thousand silver dollars annually but spent 600 thousand. My family's cosmetics business earned 100 thousand and spent 200 thousand. The Osborne family's agricultural ventures brought in 200 thousand but lost 400 thousand. As for the Potter family... Their annual income was 1.2 million, but the expenditure was zero."

Randy mused, "So, our families were bleeding money to subsidize the Potters?"

"Exactly." Debra nodded. "Those two elders claimed the 1.2 million funded their intelligence network. But that amount's way too high."

"But what's this got to do with the hidden treasure?" Randy frowned. "You're not telling me our ancestors left behind a crate of illegal guns? Those things are ancient junk now."

Erica turned to Debra. "Could we be wrong? Maybe these ledgers have nothing to do with the treasure?"

"Right." Randy threw his hands up. "This isn't a treasure map. If the mastermind behind all this was so skilled, they'd have found the treasure long ago."

Debra's head snapped up. "What were you saying?"

"Uh..." Randy blinked. "That if the mastermind was so skilled, they'd have found the treasure already?"
