Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 556

With a superior air, Bella smoothly signed the papers and walked away with a hundred million dollars.

These weren't amateur loan sharks; they knew that even the wealthy sometimes needed a discreet infusion of cash for turnarounds the public couldn't know about.

They were also aware that the Mercer family had been borrowing frequently over the past two days, a clear sign of a major capital shortfall.

Most of the lenders had already decided to cut the family off, but it seemed Bella's finances were unaffected.

A hundred million dollars was quickly transferred to Debbie's account.

The moment she saw the money, Debbie clutched her phone, kissing the screen a few times.

Bella was truly devoted to her.

Better than her own son.

Debbie was already scheming. Bella was clearly resourceful.

Just by being with her son, she could casually pull together hundreds of millions to lend her.

She couldn't imagine how much money her son must have.

However, Debbie was also keenly aware that her son wouldn't give her a single extra dime.

So, her only option was to cling tightly to Bella and ensure she remained a constant source of cash.

She would start with manipulation and flattery. When that stopped working, or after she'd drained Bella dry, she would switch to another method.

In any case, Bella was going to marry her son, so she had to have plenty of money.

With the hundred million, Debbie paid off her casino debt and triumphantly returned to the tables with Lucas.

The casino had given her a very high credit line, so she could play as she pleased.

Debbie took a drag from her cigarette, exhaling a perfect smoke ring. "Just showing Lucas a good time, so we're keeping it casual. Besides, I've seen how you people operate. The last few times, all you did was spoil my mood. What else are you good for?"

What else were they good for? The host was left speechless.

"Ma'am, please don't say that. We didn't realize the extent of your resources before. Now that we do, we certainly won't spoil your fun again."

"Rest assured, we've extended your credit limit to a billion dollars. You can play as much as you want."

"We promise we won't bother you until you hit that billion-dollar mark."

Debbie's eyes lit up. A billion dollars?

They were raising it that high? They were giving her that much?

She couldn't contain her excitement and immediately asked, "Are you serious?"
