Chapter 2598
Kingston was shocked once again. "Lawyer? what lawyer? Could it be that the boy was cornered by you, so..."
"It has nothing to do with that boy, but it has something to do with the money I owed," Eevonne said.
It suddenly occurred to Kingston that in that entire year, Eevonne had spent all her time waiting for the boy in hopes of meeting him. Not only did she not work, but she even had to maintain the minimum expenses every month. The worst part was that she had to send money to her mother every month. After the whole year, not only did she not have any income, but she even had an additional debt.
"What did you do about the money you owed?" Kingston asked.
Eevonne sighed heavily and smiled miserably. "Since then, I lived every single day of my life in fear. Actually, I had already gone past my deadline for a long time. Every time they called me and urged me to pay, I didn't take it seriously. Then, even the lawyer came to my door. I had no choice but to sell all the things that I could sell around me.
I originally bought a computer as I intended to study on my own, but I sold the computer off as well. I bought it for around seven thousand, but I only sold it for three thousand. Later, even though I could not find my ex-boyfriend anymore, I shamelessly made one phone call to my ex-boyfriend's mother. I told her I had encountered an obstacle that I couldn't get past, and I hoped that she could help me. Perhaps his family wanted to get rid of me completely, his mother sent me ten thousand dollars. That ten thousand dollars was equivalent to purchasing all of my dignity. Perhaps in his family's eyes, I am not even a human. Since then, I started the long journey of looking for a job again. Due to the two incidents of the fake diploma, I became slightly famous in the industry. When I went to look for a job, no matter how experienced I was, any company that was slightly decent did not want me. Without a choice, I could only lower my expected salary to the point that it was even lower than an ordinary worker in a factory. Only then did those companies who urgently needed to hire were willing to hire me. In the next few years, things at work have always been unsatisfactory. I didn't have a good job, and I was still having a huge debt. Also, I had to give quite a bit of money to my mother every month. Just like that, the situation with my debt still could not be eased up. At the age of twenty-eight, I didn't have a boyfriend, my job was unsatisfactory, and I even have a huge debt. Besides, who would want a woman with so much debt? My parents were so anxious for me that it was killing them. A few years earlier, I was quite dignified because of that boyfriend. However, in the last few years, not only was I unable to bring a boyfriend home, I was getting older. Also, there was a time when the bank that I owed money directly sent the statement to my house back in my hometown. Because of that, the people back in my hometown realized that after I had worked in the big city for so many years, I actually owed so much debt."
