Chapter 793


    Chloe flushed, spinning some nonsense about how she was currently broke because she had bought a


    house overseas. Helen wiped away tears as she listened, her heart aching endlessly for her younger


    sister.


    “Won’t you have enough money if you sell the house off? You’re going to be staying here for a long while


    anyway, so it’d be useless to keep that house overseas!” Demi said with her lips pursed.


    Chloe was only bluffing, for they didn’t actually have a house.


    Upon hearing Demi’s words, Chloe couldn’t speak for a while. Atst, all she could do was weep. “W-


    Why are you so cruel, Demi? That house is supposed to be for your brother when he gets married in the


    future. How is he going to be able to find a wife if the house is sold? Oh Helen, I-I truly do not wish to live


    anymore…”


    Helen shot a re at Demi. “Shut your mouth and go back to your room! You’re no help staying here—


    all you do is act sarcastic!”


    Demi pursed her lips. “Fine, fine, I’ll stop talking. That works, right?”


    Helen shot a re at her again, and then she looked hopefully at Sasha. “Why don’t you help your aunt


    out, Sasha? Aunt Chloe was so nice to you when you were a young girl. You—”


    Sasha felt a headache forming.


    What’s going on? Why is this being dumped on me again? Do I have to help bail her family out because


    her son didn’t want to listen to reason and ended up getting himself into trouble?


    In truth, if things were simple enough that the matters could be resolved by lending Chloe some money,


    Sasha wouldn’t have minded it at all. After all, Chloe had indeed been good to her. However, the problem


    was that Jonah had run to Sasha and her family only because he wanted to use them. That didn’t sit well


    with Sasha.

    “Mom, thepany will only be giving out our bonuses at the end of the year. I only have my monthly


    sry for now, so I don’t have that much money!” Sasha answered.


    “You’re a board member at thepany, so can’t you think of something else?” Helen asked frantically.


    “Something else? Are you expecting me to use thepany’s public funds? Do you want me to end up


    in prison with him too?” Sasha eximed angrily.


    Meanwhile, Helen was so furious that she couldn’t say a word.


    Right then, Minerva suddenly piped up and said, “Sasha, saving Tate is more important. Why don’t you


    mortgage the car first for some money to rescue him?”


    The Cunninghams were stunned speechless, for they were all shocked to the core by that shameless


    suggestion. Truth be told, none of them had thought that the Campbells would be able to say something


    so brazen.


    Tate was the one who wouldn’t listen to others’ advice, and he ended up in a car ident. Yet, the


    Campbells were expecting the Cunninghams to mortgage their car so that they could have enough


    money to save Tate from prison. Most importantly, they said that in such a matter-of-fact manner!


    What right did the Campbells have to say that? Did the Cunninghams owe them?


    Sasha took in a few deep breaths before she managed to calm herself. She was truly worried that she


    would not be able to stop herself from tearing into the Campbells.


    However, Demi couldn’t be bothered with such decorum, and she immediately let her fury show. “Do you


    even f*cking have your head screwed on right? Why should we mortgage our car? Don’t you guys have


    your own car—a BMW at that? Go mortgage that one instead! He’s your own brother, so shouldn’t you


    and your family be the ones worrying about him?”


    Minerva had an awkward look on her face. “Demi, we’re all family, right? W-We really can’t do anything


    else. Besides, a million is a huge sum for us, but it’s just pocket change for you.”


    “Bullsh*t!” Demi bit out angrily. “Who has the nerve to say that one million is pocket change?”


    “Regardless of the sum, the family of the one responsible should be the one paying. We don’t owe you


    anything, so why are you trying to get us to pay instead?” Liam said softly.


    Minerva stood up, her face livid. “Fine, I get it now. What kind of rtives are you? You’re just a bunch of


    selfish people! You guys clearly know that we don’t have any money, but you refuse to help us even with


    such a small matter. I’ve finally figured out what kind of people those rtives of yours are, Mom. You


    sing their praises andplimented them, but when pushes to shove, none of them will step up!


    Forget it, let’s just leave. Just seeing them makes me want to puke!”
