THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 967

With that, Hazel snatched the suitcase from Sloan's hand and, using her other hand, started shoving Keeley. "Get out, get out! Get out of here right now! You're not welcome in our house."

Hazel had no qualms about burning this bridge. The money was already in their account. What did she have to fear?

And just like that, Keeley was thrown out of Sloan's house.

He pushed his suitcase along the road, his heart a turmoil of emotions, finding it hard to breathe. But he wasn't completely without hope. He didn't just have Sloan. He had three other nephews.

Sloan was a thankless wretch, but the others were surely different!

Trevor's house was the closest, so Keeley dragged his suitcase straight there.

Trevor and Floy were in the middle of breakfast. When they saw Keeley, they were incredibly excited. Floy was the first to rush over. "Uncle Keeley! What brings you here so early? Have you eaten? Come, come, we're just eating now. Sit down and have something."

Trevor followed, pouring Keeley a glass of milk. "Uncle Keeley, have some milk first."

Seeing his eldest nephew and niece-in-law still treating him with the same devotion, Keeley was so moved that tears immediately began to stream down his face. He took the warm milk from Trevor and drank a large gulp.

"Uncle Keeley, what's wrong?" Seeing him cry, Trevor and Floy grew concerned. "Did Sloan and his wife do something to upset you?"

Keeley buried his face in his hands, sobbing too hard to speak.

Keeley then recounted the whole story.

When they heard that Keeley had given the remaining one million to Sloan and his wife, both Trevor and Floy's eyes went wide.

Floy was the first to react, staring at Keeley. "Uncle Keeley, are you joking with me? That was a million dollars! You just gave it to Sloan and his wife?"

Keeley was filled with regret. "That scoundrel Sloan... he said he wanted to open a supermarket and was short on funds, so I transferred it all to him! How was I to know that monster would turn on me the moment he had the money!"

At that, Trevor completely lost his composure, pointing a finger at Keeley. "Are you stupid?! He tells you he's short on funds to open a supermarket, and you believe him? I told you that couple was no good, why couldn't you be more careful?"
