Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 952

Chapter 952 Refusing to Lend Money

"I understand, don't worry, there won't be anything like this again," Jenna nodded, feeling bitter inside.

Maybe she liked Rhys too.

But at this point, whether she liked him or not was meaningless. All she could do was keep this to herself.

After leaving Mrs. Williams' room, Jenna went straight to find Rhys and took a deep breath before speaking, "I already have someone I like. Please don't pursue me anymore. I'm afraid my crush will misunderstand."

Jenna didn't even dare to look into Rhys' eyes as she spoke and quickly ran away after finishing her sentence.

She ran out onto the street with no particular destination in mind until her best friend called her up and invited her out for some fun.

The two of them met up at a nearby coffee shop.

"Wow! It's been only a few days since we last saw each other and you've turned into such a high-class lady! My dear bestie, tell me how you suddenly became so rich." Her friend's eyes widened as she looked at the luxury brand logos on Jenna's clothes.

If she remembered correctly, Jenna's father was clearly a gambler. How did Jenna suddenly become so wealthy?

"Don't tell me your dad won millions in gambling overnight and became an instant millionaire who bought lots of properties? Is he now a landlord?"

"Lorelai, what are you thinking? That's impossible!" Jenna laughed bitterly inside.

If only that were true... But unfortunately for her father who couldn't stay out of trouble, getting rich seemed highly unlikely.

"I got married but my husband comes from money too. However our marriage is coming to an end soon," said Jenna with another bitter laugh.

She briefly told Lorelai about what had happened recently but left out the part where she had been kidnapped.

As Lorelai listened more intently to everything that had happened recently in awe; "They say fools have all the luck; looks like you have dumb luck."

That was the Williams family after all - they were considered aristocrats with access to whatever they wanted whenever they wanted it.

Even if Jenna didn't do anything for the rest of her life, she would still live an affluent life, unlike herself who lived miserably.

"By the way, since you're so rich now, can you lend me some money? I had a boyfriend before, as you know. He was into stock trading and lost all his money in it. He even lost all of my money too. Later on, someone told me that it was called a Ponzi scheme." Lorelai grasped at the last straw and kept complaining to her.

You see, that money wasn't just her savings; she also borrowed some from online sources!

If her savings were gone, then they were gone. She could just cut back on expenses. But borrowing was different. If she couldn't pay back the loan, then the bank would sue her.

"You're so rich now, can't you lend me some? I don't need much - just $500 thousand. I plan to invest in a small business and when I make enough money, I'll repay you immediately. We're good friends after all; please help me out!" Lorelai kept pleading.

She asked many friends but who had that much money? After asking around for a while, she only managed to borrow less than $100 dollars with a huge gap left.

"I... I'm sorry but there's nothing I can do about it. I don't have that much money." Jenna shook her head.

She wouldn't accept this kind of charity!

"You misunderstood me; I can't ask Rhys for money because my mother-in-law won't allow it!" Jenna shouted without thinking about anything else.

Mrs. Williams made herself clear that if Jenna went looking for Rhys again, then her mother's medical expenses would be cut off immediately.

Jenna was really scared now; she didn't dare gamble anymore!

"Just leave me alone! Stop lying; aren't you disgusted with yourself?" Lorelai didn't want to hear any more lies, so she picked up the lemonade on the table and poured it directly onto Jenna's face before standing up angrily while looking at the disheveled state of Jenna who seemed like an abandoned puppy.

"Wasn't I good enough to you before? Everyone said that nobody wanted anything to do with a gambler's daughter like yourself, but did I believe them? Not only did I not believe them, but also defended your honor when others spoke ill behind your back! And how are you treating me now? Get out of here right away; I never want see your face again!"

Seeing that Jenna still wanted to continue defending herself only fueled more anger inside Lorelei who turned around and walked away.

"What good friend is she supposed to be! She's just a liar. Even after marrying into wealth, she's still so stingy. Is she so afraid of me not repaying it?"

If she had options, how could she possibly try borrowing money from Jenna?

Besides, the borrowed money would go straight into paying off online loans rather than being spent recklessly by herself. Why should Jenna act so heartless towards her? It was obvious that Jenna had no intentions to be friends with her anymore.

Well, she had friends anyway. Losing Jenna wouldn't be the end of the world.
