The delivery guy looked at Brogan, pale as a ghost, trembling, but he never expected him to actually hand over 500 bucks.
“This is for medical expenses, go get your arm checked out.” Brogan said.
The delivery guy shook his head repeatedly, “It’s my fault, you don’t need to compensate me for the car, I’m already grateful, I definitely can’t take this money.”
“Our boss said to take it,” Brogan insisted.
The delivery guy shook his head, stuck to his principles, and then walked towards Heriberto’s location.
He didn’t knock on the car window, just bowed to Heriberto through the window, and said loudly, “Boss, you’re a good person, you’ll definitely be rewarded.”
Heriberto looked at the dark–skinned and thin delivery man outside the car window, inexplicably, he rolled down the window and said, “Take the money, go treat your wound.”
When the car window was completely down, the delivery driver saw Heriberto’s face and couldn’t help but widen his eyes in surprise. He immediately exclaimed excitedly, “You’re Mr. Hale, no wonder, you and your wife are both good people, really good people.”
Yes, this delivery guy is none other than the one Mara found to help Heriberto pack up at Acme Villa before. And because his daughter had leukemia and they had no money, he stole Heriberto’s starry cufflinks and some of Iris’s jewelry to sell to that Gavin.

“My wife?!” Heriberto furrowed his brow in confusion.
“No, no, no, it should be your ex–wife, Ms. Aguilera,” Gavin quickly corrected.
Heriberto was confused for a moment, “Do you know my wife?”
Upon hearing this, Gavin felt extremely ashamed and proceeded to explain the whole story.
Brogan stood aside, listening quietly.
Heriberto also listened quietly, but his face couldn’t help but turn paler and paler.
“Mr. Hale, you and your ex–wife are both great people. I stole
something, and she not only didn’t give me a hard time, but also helped us apply for overseas relief funds.”
“If it weren’t for your ex–wife applying for the relief fund for us and covering all the medical expenses for my daughter, I’m afraid my daughter…”
Gavin got more and more excited as he spoke, tears welling up in his eyes. In the end, he just went plop and knelt down in front of
Heriberto.
Heriberto quickly got off the car and helped the person up.
“How is your daughter doing now?” he asked.
“Okay, now it’s all good.”
Gavin wiped away the tears on his face, excitedly saying, “The doctor said as long as it doesn’t come back within five years, I’ll be able to live like a normal person, with no more worries.”

Heriberto nodded, “What’s the name of that overseas rescue fund you mentioned?”
Gavin thought, “Call M.P. Children’s Cancer Foundation. As long as the applicant meets the foundation’s assistance criteria, they will take care of all the applicant’s medical expenses from now on.”
M.P. Children’s Cancer Foundation…
Heriberto took the five hundred bucks from Brogan’s hand and put it into Gavin’s hand, “Go take care of the wound.”
Gavin looked at the money in his hand, didn’t refuse anymore, and kept saying thank you.
Heriberto got in the car, and Brogan hopped into the passenger seat.
The car drove off, and Heriberto told Brogan, “Go find out what that M.P. Children’s Cancer Foundation he mentioned is all about.”
“Yes, Mr. Hale.”
Heriberto leaned back in his chair, remembering what Gavin had just said, and then recalling the scene when he couldn’t find the pair of starry cufflinks, forcing his way into Iris’s place with Mara, accusing her of being a thief.
How much of a jerk was he back then to do something like that to Iris?
At this moment, he really wished he could kill himself alive.
No wonder she hated him so much.
