Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart (Sebastian) novel Chapter 2599

Chapter 2599

"Suddenly, the people who were originally envious and jealous of me started to look down on me. They spread terrible rumors about me, and it spread very quickly. They said I kept playing around out there, and I just didn't work hard. They said I was a liar. They said I had never actually gotten a good job in the big city in all those years, and I had always been lying to my family. My mother, who already has poor health, was directly admitted to the hospital when she heard those rumors. The money that Ĩ had given them in the past eight years came up to about one hundred and sixty thousand dollars. It was just enough for them to renovate our house back in my hometown. After the house was renovated, my family had no money left anymore, when my mother was hospitalized, my family couldn't even pay for the hospital bill. My father was so anxious that he called me and asked me to rush home. However, I was of no help even after I returned to my hometown. I no longer have the ability to pay for my mother's hospital bill. I had no choice but to borrow money from my uncle and my aunts.

However, no matter whose house I've gone to, I was kicked out by them while being cursed at and beaten, still, my mother's condition needed to be treated. I didn't have a choice, so I could only mortgage the newly renovated house to my aunt. I asked my uncle and aunt to lend fifty thousand to me for my mother's treatment. After that, I will return seventy thousand dollars to them within three years. If I was unable to pay, my family's house would be theirs."

Hearing that, Kingston could not help but interject. "Is that your maternal uncle and his wife?"

Eevonne nodded. "I don't blame them. After all, I have been so high and mighty in front of them for so many years, and they already had so much pent-up anger. Therefore, when they saw that I was exposed, it was only natural for them to vent all of their anger on me. Even if I used my family’s house as collateral, my uncle, aunt, and my cousins were still unwilling to lend me money. In the end, I truly had no other choice anymore, so I kneel before them to admit my mistakes. Only then did they lend me thirty thousand dollars. They unexpectedly did not ask me to pay them back with interest. They just asked me to pay them back within three years. I lived extremely frugally and I kept delaying the payment for my credit card, and I finally saved up thirty thousand dollars. Just a few days ago, I brought thirty thousand dollars with me to my uncle and aunt's house. At that time, my cousins were home as well. When I gave the money to them, my uncle and aunt looked upset, but they didn't say anything. However, my cousins lashed out at me at the same time. They said that I was not sensible at all. I had borrowed thirty thousand dollars for three years, but I actually didn't pay them a bit of interest at all. They resolutely didn't want the money. They just wanted my family's house."

"Aren't they blatantly robbing you?" Kingston could not help but ask.

Eevone sighed. "Perhaps they truly were too angry. They have lost to me so terribly for so many years. My cousins were a proper college graduate and a vocational school graduate. However, they could not hold up their heads in front of me for nearly a decade because of the lie I told. They certainly would not let me go easily. Therefore, they thought of all the ways to make things difficult for me. Not only did they want me to give up my family's house, they even warned me that I have to take good care of my mother, who is their aunt. If she suffered the slightest bit of grievances and didn't live comfortably, they would come after me."

Kingston asked with an expression that he finally figured everything out. "This was the reason your cousins beat you up in front of your village?"

Eevonne shook her head. "No."

Kingston was speechless.
