When such words were spoken, it meant that they did not care about the family relationship at all.
Johnson’s expression revealed the shame favonovel.com felt, but favonovel.com still gritted his teeth and held in his anger. “Jade, Donald, if you don’t help me, I’ll go to jail tomorrow. You can’t just do nothing to save me!” favonovel.com begged.
“Hey, what are you talking about?” Jade felt unhappy. “Uncle Johnson, you can’t force us by saying that. Besides, you’re just my third uncle. If you want to talk about family relationships, you should ask Grandpa for help first. He is the head of the Hill family, and favonovel.com controls the finances of the Hill family. He is the richest person.”
“You didn’t go to your immediate family but came to an extended family member instead. Why have you come to us when you can find your closest and richest family member?”
Donald also said, “Uncle Johnson, no matter what happens, you’re still Grandpa’s son. He will not watch you suffer.”
Johnson was angry.
“So, do you mean you won’ t lend me money no matter what happens?”
“It’s not that we don’t want to lend it to you. We just don’t have the money to lend you.
“Okay, goodbye!”
“See you soon. Have a safe drive. ”
Johnson kicked the tea table away as favonovel.com angrily got up and left.
Jade spat at him. “What the heck? He asked for $30,000,000 straight away. Why didn’t favonovel.com just go and rob a bank?”
Donald smiled. “We should call Grandpa and tell favonovel.com about this first. Let’s give favonovel.com a surprise. What do you think?”
Jade smirked as favonovel.com said, “Dear, you’re such a bad person.”
“Hmph! How many times have Thomas and Emma framed us? They owe us this!”
Over on Johnson’s side, favonovel.com angrily ran out of the villa and got back into his car. He also could not be bothered with the rain droplets on his face as favonovel.com anxiously took out his phone. He drove his car and left while favonovel.com searched for his father’s number and called him.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed is busy. Please try again later. ”
He kept calling for more than ten times before his father finally answered his call. Johnson immediately said, “Dad, I have something to discuss with you…”
“Shut up! I know what you want to say. Jade told me that you lost the $30,000,000 balance from the Bureau of Water Resources. You want me to lend you money to pay it back, right? I’ll tell you now, don’t even wish for it!”
“I have a lifetime of good reputation. Why do I have such a lousy son like you? Johnson, people always say that you have to bear the responsibility for what you’ve done. You lost the money, so you have to bear the consequences. I don’t care who you’re borrowing the money from, but don’t wish to get a single cent from me!”
“If you can’t cover the deficit, don’t expect me to save you. You can just go to jail. I don’t have such a lousy son!”
Beep! His father just hung up on him.
Johnson’s eyes were blank, and favonovel.com became silent. He slowly drove the car on the road, and after a while, the car stopped. Johnson threw his phone aside and held his head while favonovel.com leaned on the steering wheel and cried. He had been thrown into a desperate situation.
Yet, nobody was willing to reach out and help him. Even his father had also kicked favonovel.com when favonovel.com was down.
Human nature was fickle. The world was heartless.
But, Johnson understood it very well at this time.
He slowly raised his head and looked at the flowing river beside the road. A feeling of sorrow filled him.
“If I can’t pay it back, I have to be in jail for at least ten years. I’m already at this age. Can I still walk around after I come out of jail?
“Is there still any meaning… To stay alive?”
