The Callahans gathered.
“Thea, have you thought of anything yet? The court’s summon is already here, and the trial will begin tomorrow morning. The Xenoses are getting the money back via legal means.” David wore a worried expression.
Thea had been out for the whole day. He wondered if she had gotten the money.
Thea’s face was pale.
Her exquisite face was devoid of emotions. Like an emotionless robot, she sat there unmoving.
Slam!
At that moment, the Callahans’ front door was kicked open.
Maximus along with his men stormed into the house.
Appalled, the Callahans stood up.
Maximus brought his men in and sat on the sofa.
Meanwhile, the Callahans stood by the side with horrified expressions.
Maximus glanced at them and said with a mischievous grin, “You’ve prepared the money?”
Thud!
David knelt on the floor immediately and pleaded, “Please, give me a few more days! My sister has been trying to get money by sleeping with rich men. I’ll get the money soon.”
Thea wore a blank expression.
She was utterly disappointed in her family.
“Take him.”
Maximus ordered his men.
His men approached David and forcibly grabbed him.
“Mom, Thea, dad… Save me…”
David cried out.
“Thea, think of something. Quick!” Gladys panicked.
“Think of something? What can I do?” Thea shook her head. She was at her wit’s end.
Maximus stood up and said coldly, “I’ll give you one more day, Thea. If I don’t see the money by tomorrow, prepare to collect this guy’s corpse. After you’ve prepared the money, come and find me at Osmanthus Villa.”
As he said that, he turned to leave.
“Dad, mom, Thea… I don’t wanna die…”
David was forcibly dragged out of the Callahan residence.
He wailed.
The rest of the Callahans did not dare go against Maximus.
