    *Two minutes have passed.” Arabe said.


    Arabe hung up the call, blocked the number, and was about to head into theb when another


    unknown number called.


    Arabe was speechless. Without a doubt, it was Attlee again, shamelessly calling her from a new


    number.


    Arabe hung up again, blocked the number, and strode into theb.


    Attlee had predicted she wouldn’t answer, so he had prepared a bunch of new numbers before calling


    her. Each time Arabe blocked one, he’d switch to another. Finally, Arabe switched off her phone,


    leaving Attlee helpless.


    “How’s it going?” Olga, watching Attlee’s fallen face, had a bad feeling, “She’s still not answering your


    call?”


    “She switched off her phone.” Attlee sighed, ncing at his daughter on the sofa.


    Ynda was hanging her head, looking guilty as tears silently rolled down her cheeks. She looked


    pitiful.


    “That girl is outrageous!” Olga gritted her teeth, hating Arabe to the core, “No matter what, this can’t


    hit the news or not only will Yoli’s reputation be ruined, but our Murphy family’s reputation will be


    destroyed too!”


    Humph! It was just six million? They were the richest family in Tranquil City, they could definitely afford


    it!


    Attlee was silent for a while, then took out his phone, ordering his men to put up several of his


    mansions and shops for sale, “The buyer must pay in full.” Otherwise, waiting for the bank’s loan


    process would take too long, and they wouldn’t get the money within three days!


    “Make it fast. If it doesn’t work, lower the price a bit.” Attlee hung up, looking at his wife and daughter


    with a defeated look, “Once we sell those, all we’ll have left is this house and a few shops.”


    The maid serving tea on the side was startled by this, almost dropping her tray.


    “What are you doing?” Olga, noticing her sneaky behavior, couldn’t help but scold, “Trying to give us a


    heart attack?”


    “Sorry, ma’am, I didn’t hold it properly.” The maid thought, what was the point of acting high and mighty


    when they were about to go bankrupt! She needed to find a new job. The Murphy family was definitely


    going under soon!


    “Dad, mom, I’m sorry.” Ynda sobbed, tears falling continuously, guilt written all over her face.


    “Ah.” Attlee sighed. Once the mansions and shops were sold, he would no longer be the richest man in


    Tranquil City. His status would plummet. Then, the Murphy family’s business would be on the brink of


    copse.


    “It’s all my fault.” Ynda knew she’d messed up, sobbing, “If I hadn’te back, dad would still be the


    richest man, and mom would still be living a luxurious life. I ruined you. I ruined our family! I’m sorry, so


    sorry!”


    If she didn’t apologize now, she was afraid her parents would get angry and kick her out. She could feel


    her father’s disappointment in her. Even though she was crying so hard, he didn’t offer any words of


    “Silly girl, you’re our child. You’ve lived outside for eighteen years. You’ve suffered a lot!” Olga said.


    Olga gently stroked her head, softly saying, “You couldn’t afford piano lessons before, but things are


    different now! We’re here, and we won’t let you suffer anymore. If you still want to learn piano, we’ll hire


    a tutor for you!”


    Ynda’s tears fell, she shook her head. As if to say, she didn’t want to learn piano anymore.


    Olga’s heart ached even more, “It’s okay, as long as we pay the six million, only the people at the


    ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    awards ceremony will know about this. It’ll soon be forgotten, and won’t be known by others. Won’t


    be… Theirughingstock.


    Ynda nodded, looking guilty.


    “In a few days, the results of the entrance exam will be announced. With your abilities and level, getting


    into a good university won’t be a problem!” Olga said.
