Hugo narrowed his eyes ungratefully and stared at Keira very unhappily, "Even if you don't want to admit me as your father, the kinship can't be completely broken as you want."
"Besides, before you met Mr. Chad, you was raised by my side for 19 years. What do you pay for the grace I raised you?"
With Chad who was from the White family, Keira will never get rid of her father in her life. Being the father-in-law of the deputy director of the National Investigation Bureau must be a very respectable thing!
Hugo was already dreaming of wealth.
Sadie echoed, "That's right, Keira. Don't be stubborn with your dad. You come back today. Let's go out for dinner tonight, treat Mr. Chad well, and discuss your engagement. Don't worry. Your dad and I will definitely do our best to handle your big event well."
At this moment, she wished that she was Keira's biological mother and could be connected with Crana's leading family. Later, she could brag in front of her friends, which would be so honored. Who dares to look down on her?
Keira was simply shocked by the couple's shameless behavior, "One of you is shameless and the other is mean. You are a perfect match."
Hugo glared at her, ignored her sarcasm, and said recklessly, "Anyway, I won't agree to cut off the relation. I had raised you for many years. Even if it is really cut off, you must pay back the money."
Chad wrapped his arms around Keira's shoulders, and patted her lightly with his broad palms to soothe her depressed mood and give her a sense of security.
"I'll pay you back the money."
He took out a diamond-series bank card in his pocket and showed it to Hugo and Sadie's eyes, "This card contains 2.5 million. It is several times the price of the living conditions you once gave Keira."
Hugo and Sadie stared at the card.
Sadie was even more cheerful and eager to pick it up, "Thank you Mr. Chad. You're so kind to Keira. It's too generous of you to give us such a gift."
Hugo was much calmer than Sadie but the eagerness and excitement in his eyes cannot be hidden.
2.5 million, although this number didn't look very good (250 means stupid in a homophonous way), they had never seen so much money in their life, let alone selling Keira into the White family as a daughter-in-law.
Even if Hugo needed to let Chad buy one and get one free to take Sadie away, Hugo was willing to it as long as he could have the money.
Chad could clearly sense the greedy intention of the two, and before Sadie could touch the bank card in his hand, he turned his wrist and raised it two inches, making Sadie miss it.
"What do you mean? Isn't it for us?" Sadie asked anxiously.
Chad sneered, "What's the hurry. I haven't finished speaking yet."
Sadie had no choice but to withdraw her feet and stood beside Hugo very reluctantly.
Chad's voice was steady and powerful, "It can be used as the alimony you once raised Keira, but this is not so easy to get."
Hugo and Sadie looked serious at the same time and looked at each other.
Chad continued, "Hugo Norris, you illegally trafficked Keira to European Swye, and all the illegal money you obtained was used for gamble. I have asked the bureau to organize the detailed evidence. You two take the money and have to be prepared to go to jail at the same time.”
"What!?"
Hugo and Sadie exclaimed.
Sadie was even more confused, "It's none of my business! Why should I be sent to jail?"
Keira replied, "You dare to say when I was brought to European Swye by Hugo to be resold, you didn't encourage him on purpose?"
Sadie refused to admit firmly, "How is it possible?! I have persuaded him not to do so!"
Chad smiled, "It doesn't matter. Since you don't recognize it, you can go to the bureau. I believe we will have the means to let you tell the truth, but then the punishment will be heavier."
Being so scared, Sadie ducked behind Hugo and felt a little bit guilty.
Hugo was also stunned.
