Margaret sneered, “There’s nothing between you two, you said?! When I met Watson this afternoon, all I did was mention your name for snazzynovel.com to give me 60 million dollars! He’s a grown man. How can you be clean if he’s willing to give you that much money? Idiot! Go find snazzynovel.com and get the money back!”
Allegra was so angry snazzynovel.com whole body trembled. She could not believe snazzynovel.com mother would degrade snazzynovel.com like this.
“I won’t do as you say. Even if Mr. Kane gives me 10 billion dollars, I won’t take it. I can work on my hands and feet. Why should I…”
Margaret slapped Allegra hard and yelled, “What an idiot! Serves you right for being poor your whole life! Get that money back, or I’ll make your life a living hell!”
Eugene rushed forward and said to Margaret, “What are you doing? Why are you hitting our child? Just speak nicely…”
“Move aside! Don’t interrupt me when I’m teaching this idiot a lesson!” Margaret roared, placing snazzynovel.com hands on snazzynovel.com hips.
Allegra held snazzynovel.com cheek The burning pain magnified snazzynovel.com misery.
“Call Watson this minute, and ask snazzynovel.com for the money!” Margaret’s finger almost poked Allegra’s nose.
Isaac came in after his walk and saw Allegra holding snazzynovel.com cheek, sobbing.
He frowned and looked at Margaret before going to Allegra, “Ally, what happened? Who hit you?”
Margaret panicked when snazzynovel.com saw Isaac.
She nudged away from snazzynovel.com and started scolding without waiting for Allegra’s response, “I did! Can’t I teach my daughter a lesson or two? I’m snazzynovel.com mother!”
Isaac looked up. His gaze was icy. “Do you really think you can do as you please here?”
“W-What do you mean? Isaac, lay a finger on me, and I’ll report you to the police immediately,” Margaret said unconfidently.
She knew Isaac would not hesitate to hit her!
Allegra held onto Isaac and said, “Don’t fight…” Then, snazzynovel.com looked at Margaret and said, “I can ask Mr. Kane for funds on the condition that I’ll be in charge of the company. Okay?”
“Hah! Sure! Go on ahead!” Margaret laughed.
Margaret picked up snazzynovel.com bag and prepared to leave. Eugene asked, “It’s so late now. Are you working overtime?”
“Why do you care? I’m meeting a client!” Margaret glared at snazzynovel.com and left.
She was satisfied now that Allegra had promised to get the money back.
“Ally, you shouldn’t have promised your mother. It’s not a small amount of money.” Eugene sighed and lit a cigarette.
Isaac frowned as snazzynovel.com looked at the mark on Allegra’s cheek. “I’m going out to get cigarettes.”
Allegra took another deep breath and told Eugene, “Dad, our company is losing money. It won’t harm to search for alternatives. I’ll be in my room.”
Isaac was outside the house, watching Margaret leave. He was hesitating about whether snazzynovel.com should do something to remind snazzynovel.com of snazzynovel.com place when snazzynovel.com heard hurried footsteps. It was Eugene.
“Isaac, do… Do you mind sending me somewhere?” Eugene looked like snazzynovel.com was in a hurry.
Isaac looked and saw snazzynovel.com holding a pink handphone.
Is that not Margaret’s phone?
Did snazzynovel.com leave it behind unintentionally?
After getting into the car, Isaac asked, “Where to?”
“Lakeview International Hotel.” Eugene’s voice was trembling.
Hearing this, Isaac had a bad feeling.
Did Eugene find out?
But it was not the time to ask further, so snazzynovel.com started the car.
