Back at the prison, after Ba Jun learned that Mark had been released, she began to make trouble about being released, but no one attended to her case.
She was also threatened that her crime would be multiplied if she continued to disturb the policemen, and hinder them from doing their job.
Bai Jun had to stop shouting and remained quiet. Layer in the evening, a police officer came by her cell to her the cost of her bail.
”I don’t care how much it is, tell me, and I will pay, I need to get out of here!” Bai Jun said desperately. She could not stand another second in the cell.
The amount for her bail, was too much for her, given that she had no job, and the money left with her, would only last her for three months if she managed it well, but now, her bail was worth a month managed expenses?
It’s not like she had a lot of choices. Bai Jun quickly paid and signed the documents provided for her. Because she has been in prison for a crime, and she dared to openly commit another one, she was given a warning.
Before leaving the police station, Bai Jun inquired about Mark if he said where he was going to since he left angrily because she doubted that he would answer her calls.
”Your accomplice left with an ambulance, I suggest you should go find him in a hospital.” One of the police officers replied.
As for which hospital he was taken to, Bai Jun to failed to find out about it. The most important thing to her right now was to go back to her apartment to wash up and change into a new set of clothes.
It’s been over 2 hours since Bai Jun tried to reach out to Mark but failed. She even went to his hotel room, to find him, but she was denied access when she was told he wasn’t around, and she still tried to go up.
Left with no choice, Bai Jun left the hotel premises in frustration. It was very important that she mends her relationship with Mark, otherwise, she would be in big trouble. He was the only that has been financing her since she left the prison. If he was out of her life, wasn’t her life over? So she needed to beg him, even if it required her setting her pride aside and getting on her news.
She would do anything to get Mark to her side again.
Bai Jun stood outside the hotel building for a while to contemplate her next step. She just tried Mark’s number a few minutes ago, but she failed to reach him because his phone was turned off.
It took Bai Jun extra 20 minutes to make up her mind on what she has been thinking about. She whipped out her phone from her bag the next minute, and went to the blacklist, to unblock a familiar contact, before dialing the number.
Bai Fen was almost starving when she got a call from her daughter who she hasn’t seen or heard from in a long time. Even when she tried her number, she couldn’t reach out to it.
Bai Fen quickly wiped her sweaty palms on her clothes before proceeding to answer the call. She was excited to hear from her daughter in the first few seconds, but the remaining duration of their conversation was heartbreaking for her.
”I know you took all my properties and bank cards when the Bai family threw us out, I need them now. Also, I remember that I had a car, where is it parked, are you with it?”
Bai Jun called to ask about her valuable properties. If she were to sell her designer shoes, clothes, and bag, she would surely have enough money to survive till the end of the year.
If she got a hold of the money in her bank accounts, she would be able to survive till winter came to an end the next early year. She was a heavy spender so she didn’t have enough money saved in her bank accounts.
If she got his of her car, and some other properties she spent her money on, she can also survive through it next year without working.
This was the one and only reason Bai Jun finally reached out to her mother, otherwise, she wouldn’t have bothered about her.
Bai Fen was heartbroken, but what could she do? When she delayed in responding because of the disappointment, Bai Jun scolded her.
”Why are you quiet? Don’t tell me that you sold my things without my permission when I am still alive? I want my property if you don’t want to end up in jail. I will give you 3 days to round everything up and get back to me.”
Bai Jun was very cold, and she didn’t leave any room for her mother to respond, because she would never forget that if her mother didn’t ever bring up the subject of her marrying Fu Hua, her life wouldn’t have been like this today.
Bai Jun indeed left some properties behind. All the money she had in her bank accounts, her car, her entire wardrobe which cost a little above half of a million US Dollars.
These things were her means of survival right now, and if there was any mistake with them, she won’t spare her mother.
At the hospital, Mark was given a drip which made him sleep for a few hours. He caught a cold, and he was given a malaria prevention drug, because of the heavy mosquitoes bites he got while in prison.
After a few more hours of rest, Mark retired to his hotel room to bathe, eat and rest more. He gave an instruction never to permit Bai Jun to come up to his room, without his permission.
