Chapter 683
It alerted Liberty’s internal alarm bells to ring.
She callously asked, “Who told you that I got that much money? I didn’t work or have. any income after I got married.”
“Your mother–in–law said so. Liberty, my business has hit a rough patch and is in the red. I lost all the money I profited from over the years. I don’t have cash going into. the business, so I was thinking if you could lend me a million bucks.”
Liberty sneered in anger.
There were no boundaries when it came to these people.
They would not stop bugging her and Serenity.
“You might want to look in the mirror and see if you can find your dignity, Mike. After all that you’ve done to me and my sister, you have the gall to ask me for money?! That’s right. I do have a million dollars, but I won’t lend it to you. I’d rather give the money to anyone else than you!”
“Oh, come on, Liberty. We’re family after all. Look, you girls were stubborn then. You didn’t get your husband to pay us for family support. He married you without forking out a dime to us. Look where it landed you. You should ask your future husband to pay for our grandparents‘ care, so he would feel responsible to the family and would not ditch you unnecessarily.
“Your future husband will only treasure you if he commits a sum of money to marry you. You don’t have use for the money you have now anyway. Why don’t you lend me the million dollars? I’ll pay you back when my business recovers. Besides, you and your sister are the reason my business is failing.
“My business wouldn’t have suffered if you didn’t ruin me with your post on Twitter. I’m taking in a loss every day.”
“I’m not going to lend you the money! Not even a dime!”
“Liberty…”
Liberty hung up on the call.
