Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 621

Chapter 621 Merciless 

Suddenly, Yerek remembered something. I didn’t even ask to borrow that amount of money from Sheridan! He offered it to me willingly and said I could use the money to get myself out of trouble. He even told me there was no rush to pay him back. 

Ever since Yerek and Nigel got kicked out of the Gibson family, their company had run into all kinds of trouble. Although they had already sold off their assets, they were still struggling financially. 

That was why Yerek was willing to humble himself and ask Sheridan for help. 

“Didn’t you tell me there was no rush to pay you back? Why are you going back on your word?” Yerek was annoyed. 

With a cunning look in his eyes, Sheridan answered, “I told you that, but that doesn’t mean you can delay the repayment for however long you want. Mr. Gibson, nothing comes for free in this world. You shouldn’t take advantage of my kindness.” 

“I didn’t expect you to act this way.” Yerek sighed. He tricked me! No one has ever done this to me. 

Livid and embarrassed, Yerek fumed, “You tricked me, Sheridan!” 

“Nigel and you are both illegitimate children. You guys were worthless since the beginning. Why should I waste my time and effort on insignificant people like you?” Sheridan chuckled. 

Sheridan was definitely playing Yerek for a fool. 

Since Barnaby hadn’t officially welcomed Nigel and Yerek into the Stone family, the father, and son were indeed illegitimate children. 

Back then, Yerek wouldn’t think twice before buying a car worth a few million. However, he had landed in hot water at this moment, and he didn’t even have a few hundred thousand to spare, let alone a few million. 

“You’re into Christina, aren’t you?” Yerek asked tentatively. “I can help you get her.” 

Sheridan’s gaze darkened, and he asked in an intimidating tone, “Who told you that I was into her?” 

“We’re both men. Your eyes were filled with desires whenever you saw Christina. Why don’t we work together?” Yerek asked. 

“Do you think my love life is worth a measly few million?” Sheridan sneered. I’m a businessman not a philanthropist. Does he really think he can get rid of me with a mere few million? That’s naive of him. 

“What do you want me to do, then?” Yerek gritted his teeth. 

Sheridan pondered for a while and suddenly said, “I sold Gibson Corporation’s shares to Christina for twenty million.” 

Yerek looked at Sheridan in shock. 

Sheridan was satisfied with Yerek’s reaction because he had ended Yerek’s dreams mercilessly. 

“I don’t need help to get what I want, Yerek. You can’t even take care of yourself now. Why should I work with a piece of trash?” Sheridan mocked. 

“Sheridan, you’re crossing the line!” 

“Get your facts straight. You owe me money now, so you’re supposed to pay me back. I want you to pay me back with interest in three days’ time. Otherwise, you’ll face the consequences.” 

Yerek had nothing to say in response because he had an obligation to pay back the money. Sheridan can easily tell the media companies about this, and my reputation will be ruined! I’m in no position to bargain with him. However, he was too proud to submit to Sheridan. 

“Just you wait, Sheridan!” Yerck stormed out after saying that. 

Sheridan’s expression turned gloomy at once, and he called someone on the phone. In a cold tone, he said, “Tell everyone to attend the family dinner tonight. I have something to announce.” 

Meanwhile, Yerek refused to swallow his anger. Sheridan sent me a text yesterday, asking me how I was doing Why did he suddenly turn his back on me today? 

With that in mind, Yerek narrowed his eyes. Could this be Christina’s doing? I must meet up with Christina no matter what. 

Yerek drove to Gibson Corporation after that. 

Coincidentally, Christina had just sent those accountants off, and she was about to walk back into the building. Right then, she saw Yerek arriving in his car from the corner of her eyes. 

Yerek opened the car door and exited his car. He cared about his reputation, so he had no choice but to suppress his anger when he said, “Christina, we need to talk.” 

Knowing that Yerek was most probably up to no good, Sebastian shot Lyle a look, signaling Lyle to chase Yerek away. However, Christina stopped Lyle from doing so. 

In a flat tone, Christina said, “If you’re here to return something, fine. If you’re not, I’m sorry. I don’t think we have anything to talk about.” 

It was almost time for a lunch break, so the entrance of the company was getting packed. The passersby were all looking at Yerek curiously. There have been plenty of scandals involving the Gibson family recently. In fact, Yerek who is also an illegitimate child is receiving even more attention than Ms. Steele. 

Yerek didn’t want to cause a scene, so he uttered softly, “I came here because of that.” 

Christina stared at him intently before saying, “Let’s talk in the coffeehouse opposite the road.”
