Ethan had looked excited at first, but the moment he managed to read the banner, he froze in disbelief.

"You won the lottery?" he questioned me, his eyes blazing with jealousy.

Jocelyn looked stunned, too. Then, she turned to me, her face full of excitement.

Sean still could not read, so he looked completely lost. He tilted his head up at Jocelyn as he asked, "Mom, what does winning the lottery mean?"

Jocelyn ignored him and hurried over to me. "Honey! Did you really win 1 million dollars? Why didn't you tell me sooner? That's great! I can finally pay Franco off! No wonder you told him the money would be ready in ten days! So, this is what happened! You won 1 million dollars!"

She reached for my hand, but I stepped aside and avoided her. Then, I walked straight over to the lottery shop owner.

"You must be Mr. Johnson, right? Congratulations! This is the biggest prize my shop has ever sold!"

Before I could say anything, Jocelyn made her way in front of me. Then, she said in a matter-of-fact tone, "I'm Jeffrey's wife. Put his prize money into my account."

The lottery shop owner rolled his eyes at her and ignored her.

"Why are you still ignoring me?" Jocelyn asked. "You're obviously jealous of me. I have 1 million dollars now, while you're just the owner of some tiny lottery shop."

Jocelyn raised her chin and spoke with open arrogance.

At that moment, the bullet comments appeared before my eyes again.

[The female lead has finally found out that the supporting male lead won the lottery! Her good life with the male lead is about to begin!]

[I do feel a little sorry for the supporting male lead, but I still want to watch the male lead and female lead live their sweet life together.]

Fine. I would give the comments exactly what they wanted and let them watch those two end up together. As for whether they would be happy or not, that was another story entirely.

When Jocelyn saw that the lottery shop owner still would not pay any attention to her, she quickly came back to my side. "Honey, he has no respect for anyone. If he asks you to donate anything, don't listen to him!"

She even rolled her eyes at the shop owner when she said that.

Even Ethan came over to join in the little excitement.

"Jeffrey, you should listen to your wife. You have to hand the lottery ticket over to Jocelyn." He did not even try to hide his jealousy as he ordered me. He then looked at Jocelyn affectionately as he said, "If I were the one who won the lottery, I'd definitely give it to my wife."

Jocelyn was clearly moved by his words. She was already a bit full of herself, and now, she looked even more pleased with herself. "Jeffrey, you should learn from him. When the time comes, transfer all the prize money to my account!"

The owner could not be bothered with Jocelyn. He walked past her and asked me again, "Mr. Johnson, congratulations again on winning the prize. Would you like to claim it now? I've already helped you file the paperwork. You can cash it out right away!"

Before I could even nod, Jocelyn answered for me. She quickly recited her bank account number and did nothing to hide the greed in her eyes as she said, "Just transfer the money into this account."

The lottery shop owner frowned at once. "Do you have the ticket with you, then?"

Jocelyn froze for a moment, then turned to me. "Honey, take out the ticket and throw it in his face. What a scumbag... How dare he look down on me!"

I stood at the side and quietly watched Jocelyn and her performance without saying a word, ignoring her. By then, she had clearly already decided that the one million was going into her account. She didn't even bother hiding herself from trading flirtatious looks with Ethan in front of me.

"Thank you, but I'm not claiming the prize right now," I said.

"Jeffrey, why aren't you claiming it? Franco already said that if I can't pay in ten days, he'll take my kidney! Are you trying to get me killed?!" Jocelyn yelped.

Jocelyn was not the only one upset. Ethan was unhappy, too. "That's not very manly of you. How can you treat Jocelyn like this? She'll divorce you eventually."
