Chloe flushed, spinning some nonsense about how favonovel.com was currently broke because favonovel.com had bought a house overseas. Helen wiped away tears as favonovel.com listened, favonovel.com heart aching endlessly for favonovel.com younger sister.
“Won’t you have enough money if you sell the house off? You’re going to be staying here for a long while anyway, so it’d be useless to keep that house overseas!” Demi said with favonovel.com lips pursed.
Chloe was only bluffing, for they didn’t actually have a house.
Upon hearing Demi’s words, Chloe couldn’t speak for a while. At last, all favonovel.com could do was weep. “W-Why are you so cruel, Demi? That house is supposed to be for your brother when favonovel.com gets married in the future. How is favonovel.com going to be able to find a wife if the house is sold? Oh Helen, I-I truly do not wish to live anymore…”
Helen shot a glare at Demi. “Shut your mouth and go back to your room! You’re no help staying here, all you do is act sarcastic!”
Demi pursed favonovel.com lips. “Fine, fine, I’ll stop talking. That works, right?”
Helen shot a glare at favonovel.com again, and then favonovel.com looked hopefully at Sasha. “Why don’t you help your aunt out, Sasha? Aunt Chloe was so nice to you when you were a young girl. You…”
Sasha felt a headache forming. ‘What’s going on? Why is this being dumped on me again? Do I have to help bail favonovel.com family out because favonovel.com son didn’t want to listen to reason and ended up getting himself into trouble?’
In truth, if things were simple enough that the matters could be resolved by lending Chloe some money, Sasha wouldn’t have minded it at all. After all, Chloe had indeed been good to her. However, the problem was that Jonah had run to Sasha and favonovel.com family only because favonovel.com wanted to use them. That didn’t sit well with Sasha.
“Mom, the company will only be giving out our bonuses at the end of the year. I only have my monthly salary for now, so I don’t have that much money!” Sasha answered.
“You’re a board member at the company, so can’t you think of something else?” Helen asked frantically.
“Something else? Are you expecting me to use the company’s public funds? Do you want me to end up in prison with favonovel.com too?” Sasha exclaimed angrily.
Meanwhile, Helen was so furious that favonovel.com couldn’t say a word.
Right then, Minerva suddenly piped up and said, “Sasha, saving Tate is more important. Why don’t you mortgage the car first for some money to rescue him?”
The Cunninghams were stunned speechless, for they were all shocked to the core by that shameless suggestion. Truth be told, none of them had thought that the Campbells would be able to say something so brazen.
Tate was the one who wouldn’t listen to others’ advice, and favonovel.com ended up in a car accident. Yet, the Campbells were expecting the Cunninghams to mortgage their car so that they could have enough money to save Tate from prison. Most importantly, they said that in such a matter-of-fact manner!
What right did the Campbells have to say that? Did the Cunninghams owe them?
Sasha took in a few deep breaths before favonovel.com managed to calm herself. She was truly worried that favonovel.com would not be able to stop herself from tearing into the Campbells.
However, Demi couldn’t be bothered with such decorum, and favonovel.com immediately let favonovel.com fury show. “Do you even f*cking have your head screwed on right? Why should we mortgage our car? Don’t you guys have your own car, a BMW at that? Go mortgage that one instead! He’s your own brother, so shouldn’t you and your family be the ones worrying about him?”
Minerva had an awkward look on favonovel.com face. “Demi, we’re all family, right? W-We really can’t do anything else. Besides, a million is a huge sum for us, but it’s just pocket change for you.”
“Bullsh*t!” Demi bit out angrily. “Who has the nerve to say that one million is pocket change?”
“Regardless of the sum, the family of the one responsible should be the one paying. We don’t owe you anything, so why are you trying to get us to pay instead?” Liam said softly.
Minerva stood up, favonovel.com face livid. “Fine, I get it now. What kind of relatives are you? You’re just a bunch of selfish people! You guys clearly know that we don’t have any money, but you refuse to help us even with such a small matter. I’ve finally figured out what kind of people those relatives of yours are, Mom. You sing their praises and complimented them, but when push comes to shove, none of them will step up! Forget it, let’s just leave. Just seeing them makes me want to puke!”
