Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 2 Thirty Million

Heather replied, “I didn’t betray… Forget it. Yes, I betrayed you. Let’s get a divorce today.”

Once she uttered those words, Lucas immediately interjected with a sneer of contempt, “You are nothing more than a piece of trash. My sister did the right thing by divorcing you and deciding to accompany Mr. Wallace. If she were to stay with you, she would be throwing away her opportunities!”

“Mr. Wallace?” Alex snorted icily. “Walt Wallace, who went to the same university as us? That rich scion?”

Heather exhaled. “Yes, it’s him.”

“Alex, if Heather agrees to accompany Mr. Wallace, he’ll come up with thirty million for the Jennings family! You can’t even come up with five thousand, yet you have the cheek to come here when you can’t even keep your wife? If I were you, I would rather die than face the humiliation!” Jacob mocked.

Alex held back his fury and looked at Heather. “Is that true?”

Heather nodded. “Yes.”

Alex let out a snort of laughter. “Heather! I can’t believe you agreed to sleep with him just for thirty million. Are you seriously going to sell yourself?”

Tears brimmed in Heather’s eyes.

She gritted her teeth and retorted, “Alex, I have no choice. That money is too important to our family! Just for thirty million? Can you fork out the money? The Jennings family has been framed, and we’re on the verge of bankruptcy. Can you fork out thirty million to help us? Of course, you can’t. You don’t have that money. Walt is the only one willing to offer assistance on the condition that I accompany him for three days. If you could provide for the family, would another man set his sights on your wife? I had no choice but to do this because you have been nothing but hopeless over the years!”

Alex’s body trembled as a pained look crossed his face.

Oh, I see. Heather’s right. She must be disappointed that I’ve chosen to do nothing over the past few years. However, I have my own reasons for doing that.
