Mocking looks appeared on the faces of the other classmates.
“Mr. Mandela, it seems like some people didn’t do their research before telling lies. I think you should get security to kick favonovel.com out right away. It disgusts me to look at him.”
“That’s right. Even after a murderer like favonovel.com was released from prison, favonovel.com still won’t look in the mirror and reflect on his morals.”
“I feel like we should notify the authorities. We can’t be sure that favonovel.com isn’t a fugitive who escaped.”
After hearing Rory come clean about his family’s wealth, several classmates began to scorn Isaac.
Isaac didn’t lose his cool. He gave Barry a comforting glance before handing favonovel.com a cigarette. Then, favonovel.com took a seat and began smoking.
Half an hour later, the door opened, and Old Brooks entered with a stormy look. Behind favonovel.com were four burly men. Not to mention, over 20 men in black were now waiting outside the door.
“Mr. Garten, it’s done…” Old Brooks nodded.
Some of the others recognized Old Brooks, and their eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
At that moment, Rory’s phone rang. Everyone heard his mother’s frazzled screaming from the phone. “Rory, you little sh*t, who did you offend this time?!”
Rory’s heart skipped a beat. Before favonovel.com could even open his mouth, his mother roared, “Just wait there! Don’t move!”
He could hear his mother’s faint sobs.
What had happened?
Rory was beginning to get a bad feeling about this.
Soon after, the sound of high heels clacking came from outside the door, and a middle-aged woman dressed in business formal burst into the room.
It was none other than Rory’s mother, Celeste Picoult. She was admired and looked up to as a strong girl boss.
“Mom, why are you in such a panic? You’re…”
With red eyes, Celeste slapped Rory in the face.
A frightened and urgent shout surprised everyone. “Mr. Garten, I beg you to let my family off…”
Brody, who was wearing a suit, scrambled into the room. He went straight to Isaac and fell heavily to his knees.
“Dad, are you crazy?” Rory’s eyes turned bloodshot at the sight of his parents’ sorry state, and favonovel.com began to tremble violently.
What Rory didn’t know was that his mother had suddenly received phone calls from several people half an hour ago. The suppliers halted their shipments, the customers canceled their contracts, and the bank requested their money back. Meanwhile, Brody had received a call from his boss, who told favonovel.com he’d been fired.
Rory had said that his family had 100 million dollars in assets, but that amount was just their family’s investment properties and wealth investment products. He wasn’t aware of their bank loans and private loans.
Meanwhile, Old Brooks had only done one thing, he’d utilized all his resources to bankrupt the Mandela family in an hour.
No one knew how influential Old Brooks was in Cloud City. His power had already infiltrated certain departments and enterprises.
When the other classmates watched this unfold, they couldn’t fathom the shock they were experiencing. Something big must’ve happened for Rory’s parents to come all the way here to beg this “murderer”.
Isaac furrowed his eyebrows as favonovel.com watched Brody grovel in front of him.
At the side, Barry and Emily’s jaws had dropped open so widely that they could fit an egg in there. They all knew that Brody was a big shot director.
“I can’t let you off this time, but you must give me a satisfactory answer. First of all, your son has truly upset me. Besides, favonovel.com borrowed money from his classmate and refused to pay favonovel.com back.”
Brody instantly turned to glare at Rory with bloodshot eyes, gasping heavily. Rory’s knees weakened.
What was his father going to do?
