Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 43

Upon receiving the loan, Emmanuel went to pick up

Alessandra in a taxi.

“Mom, why did you come to Uncle Benny’s house?”

Emmanuel asked Alessandra when she emerged from

Benny’s residential area.

“I–It’s nothing! I wanted to inform him of your marriage

and invite him over for a meal just to get to know each

asked Benny for a loan. Moreover, she was hiding the

fact that she was rejected in order for him not to

resent his uncle.

Emmanuel had no illusions as to what kind of person

Benny was. Despite the latter’s wealth, he had never

lent them a single penny. If that wasn’t bad enough,

Benny’s family, being cheap, would take whatever they

fancied every time they dropped by Emmanuel’s home

for a visit.

“Mom, Mackenzie has given me thirty thousand. I can

afford to pay for your treatment now,” Emmanuel

informed her once she got into the car.

“What? You borrowed another thirty thousand?”
