A Crazy Night Novel

Lyle replied, “No. She left after apologizing and leaving behind the money for the medical expenses. Mrs. Hadley, if you have something to ask her, I’ll get her to come back.”

“No need. It’s nothing important. Just let her be.” Christina did not wish to see Anya and had nothing to talk to her about. Whenever they saw each other, they would either insult each other or get into an argument, or the conversation would always lead to a discussion about money.

“We have managed to get in touch with Mr. Taggart. Everything is well with Mr. Hadley. Mr. Hadley has also instructed his subordinate to pass a message to you, telling you not to worry.

“All right.” A rare joyful smile appeared on Christina’s face. Feeling less gloomy, she said, “I’m going to get some rest. Wake me up after an hour.”

“Understood.” Lyle walked out of the lounge and stood guard outside the door.

Without looking at the caller ID, she picked up the call and started lashing out at the other party. “Why are you in such a rush? I will return whatever I owe you!”

“Anya, did you and your mother steal money to gamble again?”
