Chapter 123

“You want to solve the problem? Then hurry up and give us eighty

thousand! They’re demanding one hundred and sixty thousand. Your

granny and I dug into our life savings, and we now have a total of eighty

thousand. Emerson is your mother’s brother, so it’s only fair that she helps

pay for the remaining eighty thousand!” Hermann said in the most

matter–of–factly tone possible.

Alessandra didn’t dare protest even though she had no money.

Roselynn, on the other hand, was on the verge of exploding with anger.

Uncle Emerson is nothing but a sc*mbag who indulges in vices like

drinking, gambling, and fooling around! I wouldn’t even pay one dollar for

him, let alone one hundred and sixty thousand! He got a woman pregnant

at the age of twenty–one and married her as a result. After she gave birth

to Henrietta and Jamison, however, he divorced her with the excuse of her

gaining weight. He never even bothered to look after his kids after the

divorce. All he did was leave them with Granddad and Granny while he

enjoyed his life of vice outside. He even took things to a whole new level by

trying to make a fortune overseas, only to end up failing and getting

himself in trouble with the gangsters over there! Serves him right! A
