Chapter 53
Everyone in Terence Group knew how terrible
Mackenzie’s temper was.
Not only was she indifferent, but she was also
heartless.
She hated people who came up with excuses for their
mistakes more than anything else.
Derek was furious, thinking it was all Alessandra’s fault.
D*mn it! I must rip her off! I won’t rest until I get my
money!
In the meantime, Alessandra was still panicking even after arriving home. She wondered if she should tell her
children about the incident.
After asking the neighbors, she found out it would cost
at most a few thousand to fix a computer and a
phone.
Hence, she thought of borrowing money from others.
Perhaps this can be resolved. I don’t want to make my
children worry again.
Soon, Derek’s call came.
“What? Twenty thousand?”
Alessandra almost pa*sed out from shock when she
heard the number.
“Mr. Schwartz, h–how could it be so expensive?”
“Hmph! Expensive? I can’t retrieve the data from my devices, which affects the company’s project. We could
lose tens of millions, and I haven’t even taken into
account that amount! If you’re not willing to pay, I’ll file
a police report. We can settle this in court.”
Derek vented all his anger on Alessandra.
He purely focused on scaring her. It intimidated her to
the point she did not dare to argue. She could only
agree for the time being and promise him she would
find a way to compensate him.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
Roselynn came back just in time to see Alessandra in a
daze. The latter’s eyes were red, and she looked as
though she could faint at any time. Seeing that,
Roselynn hurried over to check on Alessandra.
At first, Alessandra did not want to tell her. Thanks to Roselynn’s incessant questioning, however, the former
finally opened up and recounted the entire incident.
She even teared up helplessly when she reached the
end of the story.
“What? Twenty thousand for repairs? He’s clearly
extorting you! That’s no different from robbing
someone.”
Roselynn instantly exploded with anger, and she gave
Emmanuel a call.
Emmanuel had just gotten off work and was about to
head out for his part–time job. He, too, lost his temper
after learning about the incident from his sister.
sense.
I can’t cough up twenty thousand now, but I can’t
woman?” Mackenzie questioned coldly, only to regret it
