The Established Siblings Of The Pack

Chapter 34

arm, “Everything’s going to be fine. Trust me.”At this moment, the doorbell destroyed their peaceful moment. Both Elijah and Ysabel’s screams resonated from outside. “Reene! Open up! Open the f*cking door right now!”When she heard her adoptive parents’ voices, she sat up sharply. “Why are they here?” She flitted to the door and opened it.Even before she could say anything, Ysabel pushed her and walked straight into the house, making Reene stumble. “Where is that b*stard?! Ask him to come out now!” Elijah followed behind Ysabel, entering the house with a darkened face.Once they were inside, they marched right up to Kingsley as he sat on the couch. “You murderer! Get out of here now!” Elijah pointed at Kingsley and bellowed, “Do you know how much trouble you’ve caused us after killing Gordon from the legal department?!”Following that, Ysabel sat on the carpet and hit her thigh while crying, “How can we continue to live like this? You’ve really made our lives miserable!”As he looked at the chaos, Reene frowned and asked, “Mum, Dad, can you explain what’s going on? What does Gordon’s death have anything to do with you?”“His family came to us and asked for five million in compensation!” Elijah glared at her in fury. “Your grandpa has already made a statement that we cannot let this matter affect the Wynn Family’s reputation! We can either hand this prick over—it’s an eye for an eye, after all—or we’ll need to pay the five million on our own!”When Ysabel heard the words ‘five million’, she started to make a scene again while sitting on the ground. “I’ve never earned this much money in my entire life! Asking five million from us is like asking us to die!”At this moment, Reene was feeling troubled too. If this happened in the past, borrowing five million from the company was not a big deal, but now that Neveah Department Store was on the verge of bankruptcy, wanting to borrow five million from the company had become an impossible task. “Mom, Dad, I’ll figure out a way.” She bit her lower lip and continued, “I’ll see if I can borrow some money from my friends. It may be enough after adding it together with my savings.”Hearing that, Ysabel finally stopped her sobbing and got up from the ground. “Do it now! Immediately! I need five million today!”“Mom, it’s five million, not five thousand! How can I collect so much money in one night?” Her facial expression revealed her distress. “How about this? Give me two days, and I will return the money to you for sure.”“No way!” Elijah stated categorically. “We don’t believe you! I already know that Neveah Department Store is going down! What if you flee with this b*stard? Who am I going to get the money from?”He glared at Reene furiously and said, “If I knew that you couldn’t even handle a department store, I wouldn’t have sponsored or even adopted you in the first place! D*mn it! I thought I had adopted a business prodigy, but you just ended up losing all of my f*cking money!”“That’s right! You even said you’d return a hundred million to us!” Ysabel shouted bitterly. “Why can’t you just take out five million now?!”With her eyes reddened from their criticism, Reene clenched her fist and gnashed her teeth, saying, “Don’t worry, for I’ve never owed anyone anything! I’ll definitely return the hundred million I promised you! By that time, I’ll leave the Wynn Family in an instant, and I won’t stay even if you beg me to!”Ysabel rolled her eyes and said, “Okay, okay. There’s no need for you to bluff. Just give us the five million now. Otherwise, just let this b*stard pay for it with his life!”“Fine! I’ll borrow it now!” Reene
