He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 156

Meanwhile, Corinne was utterly dumbfounded watching Gwen frantically cycle through her banking apps, only to reveal a total of around a million. She immediately yanked Gwen aside, her eyes practically bugging out of her head.

"What is going on?! How do you have no money? Last month, when you asked me to invest twenty million into that beauty clinic, you swore you pulled in eighty million in dividends last year! And last year, you borrowed eight million for 'startup equity' that was supposed to pay out immediately. Where is my money?! Where did all the money I loaned you go?!" Corinne shrieked, furiously smacking Gwen's arm.

Gwen winced in pain and burst into tears, shaking her head frantically. "Corinne, I... I was investing it for you! Investments have risks! That wasn't a loan, we agreed on that in the contract! I... I just haven't seen the returns yet, so my cash flow is a little tight right now. It'll bounce back soon, I promise..."

The moment money was involved, the bond between the two sisters evaporated. Corinne's face turned purple. Looking at her sister—who had always been more cunning and manipulative than her—and recalling a specific piece of gossip she had heard recently, the horrific realization hit her.

She grabbed Gwen by the collar, screaming, "You... you're that socialite the other wives were gossiping about! The one who constantly flies to Harbortown to gamble and loses millions! Ten million the year before last, over twenty million last year, and another eight million last month! Did you blow all my money at the casino?!"
