Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 81

Moreover, now that Dylan had recovered, he was bound to return to the Sinclair family eventually.

The Sinclair family was the premier dynasty in Cresden City; even ten Sterling families couldn't compare to their influence.

The thought of Elena marrying into the Sinclair family made Emily feel as though she had swallowed a bitter pill. It was agonizing.

She felt like she had missed yet another golden opportunity.

Compared to the Sinclair family, what was Max? That cheating dog didn't amount to anything!

He couldn't compare to even a single finger of Dylan's!

It wasn't fair!

The more Emily thought about it, the angrier she became, until she was on the verge of despair.

"Emily, why are you out here? You haven't fully recovered yet; why are you walking around?" Melissa approached, seeing Emily looking lost and despondent.

She was incredibly worried.

Back in the room, Melissa asked her again what was wrong.

"Mom, just now... I saw Elena."

"Why bring up that wretched girl? You are my biological daughter!"

"Mom, that's not what I mean. I wanted to say that her fiancé has recovered. Dylan, the young master of the Sinclair family, is a normal person now!"

"Did you really see that clearly?"

"I'm sure. It was him. I just can't figure it out—in just half a year, how did he manage to stand up? Mom, if we hadn't switched fiancés back then, the one belonging to the Sinclair family... he would have been mine! And I wouldn't have met that bastard Max!"

Emily suddenly felt as if someone had stolen what rightfully belonged to her.

"Yes, if only we hadn't switched. The young master of the Sinclair family is still a Sinclair, after all. If we had the chance to connect with the Sinclair family through this, the Sterling family wouldn't be bullied by the likes of the Holt family..." Melissa muttered to herself.

But it was all too late!

At that moment, Melissa's phone suddenly rang.

"Mom, it's bad! Something happened to Derek. He borrowed money from loan sharks, and now the creditors are at the door forcing their way in! Dad isn't back yet, please come back and take a look! These people are terrifying!" It was a call from the third son.

Melissa listened, shocked and terrified.

How did her second son get involved with loan sharks?

"What?!"

Melissa almost coughed up blood.

Four hundred million!

They had just filled the hole of several hundred million that the eldest son, Harrison, had been scammed out of, and now they had to fill a four-hundred-million-dollar void for the second son!

Furious, Melissa slapped Derek across the face.

"You unfilial son! You went gambling again, didn't you!"

As a mother, she knew her son's habits; Derek loved to gamble.

But before, it was just small bets for fun, so she hadn't paid much attention.

She never expected it would reach the point of borrowing from loan sharks.

"Mom, I know I was wrong! Mom! I'm your son, you have to save me! I originally only borrowed one hundred million, who knew that after a few days it would turn into four hundred million! They set me up!"

The bodyguard in black interjected, "Mr. Sterling, you can't say that. You read the contract back then. You begged our Mr. Smith for the money. How can you refuse to acknowledge the debt now?"
