Chapter 821
She said, “I’m so envious of you. I had to get married right after high school.”
He was puzzled and asked: “Why? Were your grades bad?”
She replied, “Not as good as yours, but I was the best in my area.”
“Why get married then? Don’t you know that education is the key to a better future?”
Tears welled up in her eyes, “My parents are sick. You’ll understand when you get older.”
“Did she come to borrow money?”
Drew suddenly realized, rushing forward and grabbing Ollie’s shoulders.
He vaguely remembered hearing something about “fifty thousand” when passing by Ollie’s study one day.
Drew, living a life of luxury, never worried about money and didn’t react much to the sum mentioned.
But now, thinking back, everything seemed wrong.
Ollie avoided Drew’s gaze, not responding.
“You stole millions from her sister and brother-in-law! Aren’t you supposed to cover their tuition and medical expenses? Why did you do this? Why?!”
Drew was losing his mind.
Ableson stepped in and restrained Drew at a signal from Rosalynn while a bodyguard pulled Ollie away.
“They all died in a major earthquake where they were working eight years ago, Rosalynn replied.
That day was Drew’s uncle’s birthday. The whole family had gathered together only to be taken away by an earthquake in the middle of the night.
They lived in temporary shacks Right in the earthquake’s epicenter.
The quake took the whole family’s lives almost instantly.
Only Drew’s aunt and her family, who could not get leave to attend the birthday party, were lucky enough to escape the disaster.
This is too tragic, Wilson said, then corrected himself, pointing at Ollie. “No, it’s your fault! If you hadn’t taken that money, this family could have lived comfortably working on a construction site. They wouldn’t have died in the earthquake if they hadn’t been on the site. It’s all your fault!”
Drew leaned against the wall, clearly numb.
“Mrs. Silverman, I really can’t stand Drew, but… please let him see his aunt. He’s pitiful,” Wilson said to Rosalynn without looking at Drew.
