Cupid's Arrow hit me hard! novel Chapter 2641

The Clark brothers dared not breathe heavily.

Belinda had been nice to them all along. Although neither of them was an heir to the Fisher family and they took on their father’s surname instead, they were still young masters of the Fishers.

Most people regarded them with respect as well.

They also held important positions in Fisher Enterprise, which had provided them with money.

While Caroline also held a high position in the company, she had to bear Belinda’s wrath every day. On the other hand, Belinda had never scolded the brothers unless they brought it upon themselves or committed a grave mistake.

Nevertheless, they desperately wished to turn invisible when dragged into their father’s mess. They did not want to face their mother’s anger.

The brothers knew how possessive she was of Hunter.

Hunter was the poorest person in the family; even a maid had more money on their hands than him.

“Which of you gave Hunter money? You better come clean with the exact amount you gave him ever since I left for Wiltspoon. Otherwise, I’ll stop giving you an allowance. You’ll have to earn and spend your own money without using a single penny that belongs to the family.”

Emma quickly surrendered. “Mom, Dad had borrowed some money from me. I gave him a thousand dollars because he’s my father-in-law. It was only that one time. He even complained that the sum was too small.

“When Adrian and I were quarreling, Dad said I was useless for not being able to keep an eye on my husband and that was why Adrian cheated on me. Thereafter, I never gave him money anymore.”

Justin’s wife, Ava, added, “Dad mentioned he didn’t have any money left, and he felt shameful that he couldn’t even treat his friends to a meal during gatherings. I did think it was embarrassing that a man didn’t even have five hundred dollars, so I gave him five thousand.

“When Emma came to me and complained that Dad favored his cheating sons and blamed us for being useless, I got mad and stopped giving him money.”

Ellie, Belinda’s youngest daughter-in-law, chimed in, “I made a fuss and went to live with my family for a few days after discovering Jason’s affair. Dad was barely home after I returned, and I hardly saw him. He never asked me for money, so I didn’t give him any while you were away, Mom.”

Caroline said, “I didn’t give Dad any too.”

She and Hunter did not have a father-daughter bond, nor did Hunter care about her. He never borrowed money from her because he knew he could never get any from her.
