“You bastard! Did you gamble at the casino again?” Glenn had also heard these words. He came out of the room with a pipe in his hand. His face turned scarlet with fury. He landed two hard blows to Jeff’s head and said, “You bastard! How could I raise such a failure like you?”

Eva rushed to Jeff to protect him. “Why hit him so hard? We only have one son!”

Glenn clenched the pipe in his hand and said, “Well, now that he has landed himself in such serious debt, what are we going to do?”

Eva wiped her tears away and complained, “You like drinking and gambling yourself. You are no better than him!”

“The point is that we don’t have so much money now. You two might as well take my life to pay them!” Glenn was exasperated and his face darkened.

One million was indeed a huge sum of money for them.

Holding Eva desperately, Jeff said, “Mom, we can go to Lila! She definitely has the money!”
