Chapter 62: Rich
Bella had a dream. She dreamed that Alice and Jacob walked into the marriage hall hand in hand, and then they gave birth to a girl similar to Red Wolf. In the end, the girl married the cool, always 18-year-old Edward Cullen.
How did this magical operation take shape in her mind? She couldn't figure it out, but she was just glad that she didn't reach the level of turning the virtual into reality and affecting the reality in the dream, otherwise she wouldn't have the heart to see these three friends.
The next day, she went to find Jacob, hoping to express some meanings clearly, but the Indian uncle gave her an unexpected news.
"Going to Seattle alone?" She just felt that it might contain some information that she didn't know.
The Indian uncle in the wheelchair nodded: "The young eagle always has to leave the nest, and the cubs have to learn to hunt alone. His decision is beyond my expectations, but I support him."
Bella said goodbye to the Indian uncle and left the Quileute tribe. A long-term meal ticket, no! A long-term praise growth point disappeared from her life.
Apart from Shaw, Jacob was the person who praised her the most. Of course, considering Shaw's existence, it is not wrong to say that Jacob was the 'person' who praised her the most.
"I hope Jacob is well, don't be deceived by some unscrupulous liar!" She shook her head and sighed as she returned to Forks.
After a month-long tug-of-war, the compensation plan for the victims and survivors of Flight 180 finally entered the substantive stage, that is, compensation.
Are Bella and those who didn't even get on the plane considered survivors? There was some controversy at first, but after she led a group of old men and women to win the pension claim case, the airline didn't want to cause any more trouble, so they included them all.
The specific figures are too scattered. After removing the messy expenses, the relatives of each victim will receive about one million US dollars in compensation, while the survivors will receive less, 500,000 per person.
This is the compensation part for the victims and survivors. The additional pensions for the employees who died on the plane, the sky-high fines issued by the state and federal governments, and the fines from the Aerospace Industries Association (AIA) are all included.
The insurance companies and airlines will have to pay more than 380 million US dollars in cash for compensation.
Few companies can come up with so much cash these days.
The insurance company was straightforward and declared bankruptcy.
TWA struggled for a while, and the final result was that it was acquired by a multinational company called Trassel Pharmaceuticals.
The company is headquartered in Italy and is a giant enterprise that integrates multiple projects such as transportation, pharmaceuticals and natural resource development.
The acquisition of TWA is to improve their transportation capacity. The pharmaceutical company also promised that the compensation would be paid by the pharmaceutical company.
In today's global economic downturn, the pharmaceutical company is still rich! Although the capitalists used the usual routines, dragging! They would never pay the full amount until the last moment, but the first compensation was paid truthfully.
Bella received $300,000 in compensation. When will the remaining $200,000 be paid? Who will pay it? It's all unknown, and she needs to wait.
She is very satisfied. The $300,000 is enough for her to spend for a long time. In the whole accident, the airline company actually did not have much responsibility. If the god of death wants to make trouble, it will be useless no matter how well you maintain your plane!
$300,000 was deposited into her account at the Bank of the West. With money in her pocket, she naturally straightened her back.
An important basis for maintaining self-confidence and appearance is money. Without certain material conditions as a foundation, it is useless to be naturally beautiful.
Clothes, shoes, bags, jewelry, and a large number of brand-name cosmetics became Bella's first choice.
With appearance, there is confidence, and with confidence, there is spiritual power. With spiritual power, she can put her ideas above the real world!
At that time, it is not the wind that moves, nor the flag that moves, but the heart that moves!
At the same time, on the other side of the world.
The ancient city of Taranto in Italy.
This city was first established by the Greeks. At that time, historians called this area Greater Greece.
Athenians, Spartans, and Romans all stopped in this city. Scholars such as Pythagoras and Archimedes also traveled between these city-states and taught their disciples, shining a dazzling light for the development of human civilization.
Painting, sculpture, poetry, medicine, natural science, literature, computer, physics, chemistry, all the subjects that can be thought of, Italians can find their own pride in them. Even in terms of weapons manufacturing, there are famous brand guns such as Beretta with a long history and world-renowned. Except that the soldiers are a little dragging their feet on the battlefield, this country really has no big problems.
After entering modern society, Italy, and even the whole of Europe, has become dim. Have they declined? Yes and no, the rich are still rich, and very rich!
Wearing suits and leather shoes, with an elite style, those who appear on Wall Street every day are all wage earners. Those middle-aged people wearing leather sandals and big shorts, walking in unknown European cities, and drinking cheap beer, may be super-rich.
Trassel Pharmaceuticals is such a multinational company that looks ordinary but actually has a deep foundation.
"Madam, our customers in Israel want to see the power of the latest weapons." The president of the company in a suit said to the phone.
The voice on the other end of the phone was a woman, a little greasy and a little charming: "Contact their people and let them follow and see. Isn't the acquisition of TWA completed? Just choose Arizona and find a small town to try the effect. But remember, don't make it too big, those congressmen are very greedy."
"Understood, ma'am."
Thirty-five minutes later, two Mossad agents secretly escorted a special agent to land secretly at the TWA airport by plane. Nineteen minutes later, a truck passed through the town of Prosperity in Arizona, and they abandoned a barrel of chemical agents outside the town.
Bella turned eighteen years old and had the right to freely dispose of money. Three hundred thousand dollars was a huge sum of money for her.
She wanted to go shopping and spend! In short, it was about buying, buying, and buying!
But she still had some conscience and knew to bring the pendant Charlie with her.
"Let's go to Samantha's town for a few days? It's not far from Phoenix anyway." She mentioned what she and Natasha had been planning secretly for a long time.
"Samantha just got divorced, is it appropriate for me to go?" Charlie asked with a bit of hypocrisy.
Man? Haha! Still pretending to me?
Bella didn't reveal the little secret. After all, he was her father, so she should give him some face.
She presented facts and reasoned, and described for a long time the miserable situation of Natasha's mother raising a child alone. In order to take care of Charlie's self-esteem, she even used her trump card.
"Let's just stay outside the town. No, I mean, let's just take a look outside the town, but not go in!"
