When His Eyes Opened

Chapter 115 Cole’s previous run-in with loan sharks had forced Henry to cough up a huge sum of money.

“Since Elliot’s offering, just accept it!” Henry’s wife, Olivia, chimed in. “We’re all family here. There’s no need to be so formal with Elliot.”

Henry’s face turned crimson. He picked up the check and said, “You don’t need to do this again, Elliot.”

“I’m done eating,” Elliot said. “I’ll leave now.”

Rosalie got up and sent him off.

He hated being treated like charity.
