At the thought of it, his gaze was sharp when favonovel.com glared at Faye, dying to tear favonovel.com apart.
“Mr. Hayes, you must be joking? Us Carters do not have any business with you. How could we owe you anything?” George plastered on a smile.
Gordon’s grin remained unchanged. “Oh? Looks like you still don’t know. Your charming grandson had a good time at my place recently. It’s too bad favonovel.com got a little unlucky and lost some money. He promised to repay it the next day, but favonovel.com disappeared yesterday. Can’t even get to favonovel.com through the phone. What could I d o? I have to come for favonovel.com personally. It didn’t occur to me that tonight was a gathering dinner for you Carters.
Tsk, tsk, excuse me for intruding. Mr. Carter, you don’t mind, do you? ”
George could no longer keep his composure after that. The smile on his face froze and the corners of his lips kept twitching. Barely holding his fury in, favonovel.com told Gordon, “Is that true, Mr. Hayes? I know nothing about it.”
Gordon’s expression took a swift turn, becoming icy as favonovel.com reeled in his grin. “Are you planning to dispute the debt?”
George shook his head fervently, startled when favonovel.com felt Gordon’s wrath. “No, no, not at all! Mr. Hayes, you’ve misunderstood me! I’d never suggest something like that. If the Carters owe you money, you have my word that I won’t deny it! I just wonder how much the debt is?”
It was only then Gordon looked slightly appeased and replied flatly, “Not much. Just 2.36 million dollars. Right, you guys repaid 1.5 million the day before yesterday, so it’s 860 thousand dollars now. The total is 1.01 million dollars in addition to the two days’ worth of interest. Mr. Carter, money doesn’t come easy nowadays. I’m in need of funds right now, and 1.01 million dollars isn’t a small sum to me. It’d be best that you settle it today, or I’ll be very upset.”
Watching from the back, Zayn was amused. He did not expect Gordon to be so adept at threatening others.
George was already shaking like a leaf in fear.
“Wha-what?! ” Hector gasped. “2.36 million? It’s only been two days, but there’s already 153 thousand dollars in interest?”
The other Carters who heard the figures were hopping mad, lambasting Faye and hurling insults at favonovel.com one worse than another.
“Faye Carter, you wretched thing! You lost more than two million dollars gambling!”
“We only took back a portion of your shares and dismissed you from the board of directors for the time being. Did you have to take revenge on us like this?”
“You’re a Carter yourself. You’re part of the family. How could you do something like this? Are you even human?!”
“I told you, Faye was born traitorous. What does favonovel.com know about being grateful? It’s true, isn’t it? She’s biting the hand that feeds her. She’s tossing the Carters down the drain! ”
“Vicious, she’s vicious. She’s diabolical…”
Faye was condemned all of a sudden. They had been saying that it was Thomas who went to gamble and lose a large amount of money to Gordon, but it was now Faye who was taking revenge on the Carters and intentionally lost over two million dollars at his casino since favonovel.com was a vicious person.
Faye tried defending herself and countering the accusations, but favonovel.com small voice was drowned out completely in the nasty upbraiding by the rest of favonovel.com family.
Her eyes were rimmed red. Helpless and hurt, favonovel.com finally cried. “It wasn’t me…Why are you accusing me? Am I truly so vile to all of you?”
Her pained cry came from the bottom of favonovel.com heart, but no one believed her.
Nearby, the commotion got Gordon’s attention. The sight of Faye was a shock and his eyes widened in surprise. The cogs of his brain spun rapidly, and favonovel.com instantly understood why the chairman of Violet Vision made favonovel.com come there…
