Chapter 18 Repulsive Faces

Quiana wore a bitter expression as she said, “Rhia, please don’t speak like that. They are your

relatives, after all.”

Melinda huffed in agreement, “That’s right. Is that how you speak to your elders? Moreover, when your father was left paralyzed after being beaten up previously, our family was willing to lend you two thousand, so what’s wrong with asking you to lend us some money now?”

“How do you have the audacity to say that?” Rhiannon’s face flushed red with anger. “You lent us the two thousand after my mother begged you on her knees. Moreover, you even shamelessly charged us interest and made us pay four thousand!”

“Isn’t it customary to charge others interest when lending money to another person? Just cut to the chase and tell me whether your family is willing to lend us the money.”

“Aunt Quiana, your family will receive four million in compensation for the relocation, so what’s the harm in lending us three million?”

“Relatives should help one another. How can you be so heartless when we need a*sistance now?”

Melinda acted willfully while her son, Max Lane, and her daughter, Helen Lane, chimed in with their opinions, preventing Rhiannon from interjecting.

Hearing that, Finnegan roughly figured out what had happened.

Poker-faced, he pushed open the metal door and entered.

Rhiannon hastily approached him and said, “Finn, hurry up and chase Uncle Adrian and his family out of here. They are without shame. When Dad was met with mishaps in the past, and we needed money, Mom begged them on her knees for half a day, yet they only loaned. us two thousand. After that, they demanded we repay them four thousand for the principal and interest. Now that they know we’ll receive the relocation compensation, they knocked on our door early in the morning to borrow money from us.”

Finnegan patted Rhiannon’s shoulder to calm her down. Only then did he turn to gaze at Adrian and his family.

Melinda immediately uttered with a smile, “You’re back, Finny. We’ve missed. you. You should persuade your parents to lend us the money now that you’re here. Max needs to buy a house for his wedding. Otherwise, the girl won’t agree to marry him!”

On the day of his return, Desmond invited Adrian and his family over to have a meal, but they mercilessly rejected the invitation. Hence, Finnegan doubted those relatives, who would only show up when there was something to gain, would actually miss him.
