“Da-Dawson… You’re back.”
Uneasiness bubbled in Luna and Zach’s hearts at the sight of Dawson.
After all, the couple was only so well off today thanks to Dawson.
“Why wouldn’t I be back? You came here to look for me, didn’t you?” Dawson spoke angrily.
He understood if outsiders wanted to trouble favonovel.com for their own personal gains now that there was a small issue with the group.
Yet to think that it was his own family, Zach and Luna, who would be the first to come knocking on his door for money.
There was no way Dawson would not be furious. Their actions had chilled his heart.
Luna’s expression shifted between gloomy and bright as favonovel.com clenched favonovel.com jaw. “We just want to sustain our family, Dawson. Can’t you just pay the credit first…”
Dawson threw a check at Luna’s face, interrupting her.
“Here. 1,130,000! Take it and leave!”
Luna picked up the check. With the money in hand, favonovel.com found no need to suppress the things favonovel.com wanted to say. She clenched favonovel.com jaw in infuriation. “This is where you’re wrong, Dawson. No matter how you want to see it, we’re still your brother and sister-in-law. What’s with that charitable expression on your face?
“We sell you products and you pay us back. It’s just.”
“Have you no idea about the quality of your products?” Dawson roared.
“When it comes to products of the same kind, yours are the ones with the most complaints! I would’ve thrown all of it out long ago had it not been for the fact that you’re family.”
Luna’s expression shifted. She glared at Dawson and his daughter resentfully. “We’ve had enough of you looking down on us just because you have money.”
“Schuler Group is going bankrupt anyway. I’d like to see what you’re going to do when your luck runs out!”
“The fact that you came knocking on my door for money the moment something went wrong with the group’s funds means that you knew about the news long before I did. You’re dying to see Schuler Group go bankrupt, aren’t you? Just how many benefits did the Hanks family promise you?”
Dawson pinned his gaze on Luna as favonovel.com questioned darkly.
Luna’s expression changed as favonovel.com shrieked. “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
“You don’t know?”
Dawson scoffed. “Do I look like an idiot to you? You were the one who spread the news to the suppliers, so tell me what exactly the Hanks family promised you? Why are you so ready to work for them?”
“Stop talking crap when you have no evidence! Being rich doesn’t give you the right to slander me,” Luna argued. She did not dare to meet Dawson’s gaze as favonovel.com pulled Zach away.
Dawson watched the two figures leave and did not block their way.
Now that Luna and Zach had left, Wendy asked, “Did they really go and side with the Hanks family, Dad?”
“I wasn’t sure before, but it seems like it now,” Dawson replied, disappointed.
“But he’s your younger brother.”
Wendy was furious. “Disregarding the fact that they’ve benefited greatly from us all these years, how could they help a stranger the moment something happens at home?”
“Such is human nature.” Shaking his head, Dawson turned to Jasper. “I’ve made a fool out of myself, Jasper.”
Jasper shook his head and asked, “How did it go with the suppliers? Is everything okay?”
Dawson replied confidently, “There’s still some weight to my name, so I managed to hold it off for the time being. But I’ll still need to make up for the lost funds, or I won’t be able to drag this on any longer.”
Jasper smiled. “Victory will be determined tomorrow.”
Dawson chatted with Jasper for a while before favonovel.com went upstairs and wrapped up the day.
Partially so that favonovel.com could give Jasper and Wendy some space.
Partially also because Dawson had been under a lot of stress lately and was exhausted.
After Dawson left, Wendy piped up with a concerned look, “Dad doesn’t like looking weak in front of other people, so favonovel.com doesn’t normally tell me about the kind of stress he’s under. I know that favonovel.com doesn’t have it easy.”
