Queen of Wild Cards novel Chapter 582

...my dad, as the guarantor, had to bear the joint liability.

So, the court's verdict was that his friend owed the money, but the debt ultimately fell onto my dad's shoulders.

The verdict went into effect, and when it reached the enforcement stage, the judge sought out my dad multiple times. My dad felt it wasn't his debt and refused to pay.

Because of that, the court legally placed him on the defaulter list and restricted his spending. Left with no choice, we've had to scrape together whatever we can."

Stella looked at Serena in sheer disbelief. Was this family just a magnet for scammers?

Her dad got tricked into co-signing a loan three years ago, and she was recently lured into a trap in North Myanor.

What a mess!

"Is there really no other way? Are you seriously planning to marry that old creep?"

Serena smiled bitterly. "I just graduated from college not long ago, and my younger brother is still in school.

My parents' salaries barely cover our tuition and daily living expenses. We have absolutely no savings.

Once our relatives and friends heard about our situation, they started avoiding us. If I had any other choice, why would I be willing to meet a man like that?"

Stella asked, "What do you do for work right now?"

"I haven't found a job since getting back from North Myanor. My parents won't let me go back to my old one."

After she was tricked, her parents made her quit, terrified she'd be deceived again.

She didn't want to go back anyway. The pay was terrible, and her safety wasn't guaranteed.

But the cost of living in Bay City was high, and jobs were scarce. Finding something decent was incredibly difficult.
