Chapter 168

    Chapter 168 Harvey stood frozen, muttering, How could this happen? This isnt right... This cant be right He waspletely floored by the news as he had invested everything he had, even borrowing money and convincing the Stevens family to contribute their savings


    He had nned to pay them back a token amount from the payout money and keep the lions share for himself.


    Yet, he was in an even worse financial position than before.


    For a fleeting moment, Harvey genuinely thought about just ending it all.


    Harvey, whats going on? Christina asked, her voice heavy with disappointment.


    Did your familys inside information turn out to be wrong, or were you just gambling blindly? Harveys attempt at a smile looked more like a grimace


    Christie, please believe me, we really did have inside information.


    I wouldnt have I dont believe anything you say anymore, Christina cut him off.


    Mr.


    Thatcher made it clear -weve lost everything.


    Irene shouted, Harvey, Idont care what it takes, but you better find a way to get my money back. Use your family connections! If I lose my retirement savings, you can forget about having any future with Christie ! Leroy snarled, Yeah.


    You had better return my money too! Otherwise, youre not my brother- inw anymore youre my enemy ! The other Stevens family members exchanged nces, some even snickering quietly in the corners. Serves him right for trying to keep all the profits to himself, one whispered.


    ment I used to think he was some investment genius.


    If I could go back in time, Id p myself for being so blind.


    This whole mess just proves that hes nothing but an overrated hack.


    Im done wasting my time here its not worth it.


    Their scornful remarks made Harveys already grim mood turn murderous, his face burning with humiliation


    He had always been viewed as the perfect, capable young man from a prestigious family, And just like that, he had be nothing but aughingstock.


    Irenes threats about Christina were the final straw


    For a moment, Harvey wanted nothing more than to m Irene and Leroy into the ground and shut them up for good


    They were a bunch of nobodies! Who gave them the right to bark at him like this? +25 US Chapter 166. Mrs.


    Stevens, Leroy, please calm down.


    III make this right, Harvey forced himself to say with a smile, not wanting to burn his bridges with the Stevens family just yet.


    Their hostile attitudes made him want tosh out, but he had to keep his cool.


    Otherwise, Christina would slip through his fingers for good.


    Nheless, Irene and Leroys aggressive demands made it impossible to focus.


    Now trembling with anger, Irene had to lean on someone to steady herself.


    She gasped for air and snapped, Make it right? How are you going to make it right? Leroy sneered.


    I dont care what excuses youe up with.


    All I care about is my money.


    Pay it back, and youre still my brother inw.


    If you dont, were done here.


    Harveys forced smile froze as his eyes darkened dangerously.


    These people were really pushing their luck.


    Did they really think he did not have limits?
