Chapter 593: Annie York Leaves

「In the car.」

Chloe Reed handed Annie York a bottle of water, then straightened her hair and dress. "Here," she said, "have some water and calm down."

Annie York nodded, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip. She wiped away her tears and looked at Chloe, her eyes red-rimmed. "Chloe, that was my brother, Gregory York."

Hearing this, Chloe Reed raised an eyebrow and scoffed. "That name... Looks like your parents had high hopes for him."

Annie York nodded. "It was my grandparents. He’s the only boy in our family, so my grandparents doted on him. He got whatever he wanted growing up. But he’s completely unworthy of it. He certainly hasn’t brought any glory to the York family."

Gregory York started gambling and became an addict. He gambled away the family’s savings, racked up huge debts, and then just ran off. He only came back this time because he was out of money and had lined up a buyer to sell Annie to.

Annie York clutched the water bottle. "Chloe, I’m going to resign. I can’t stay here anymore. I’ll only bring you trouble."
