Chapter 479
The doctors quickly rushed in and carried away Zachary to the ward next door, resuscitating him. Zachary regained consciousness not long after, but at the thought of how his entire collection was gone, he fainted again. 1 It was mayhem for the Jordans, blindsided by the turn of events. Tiffany ran away… She ran away with all their money… Everything valuable in the mansion was gone… What else did they have?
Amelia thought of herself as she briskly went to the attorney and clung to his hand. “What about me? What about my 5 percent shares?”
“You and your mother still own the shares, but… The company is now fifty billion in debt, and the entire company will be used to repay the debts. Those who hold the shares are now responsible to pay them…” explained the attorney. 1 Amelia’s pupils dilated. 50 billion in debt? ‘Responsible for paying the debt? She had to pay that much?! “No-not happening! Why would Tiffany do that? How can this have happened? Find her now. No matter what it takes, we have to find Tiffany!” The dazed Adam eventually snapped out of his trance. “Bring her back!” were his first words.” We must find her!”
They treated Tiffany with so much kindness and gave her everything, yet she went ahead and ran away with all of their money? Just like that, the Jordans had gone bankrupt. They had to find Tiffany and demand an explanation from her, no matter what it took 1 “It’s the end of the month, however,” said the attorney. “The bodyguards haven’t been paid yet, and they’re all feeling anxious. News of Tiffany’s act broke out somehow, and now all the company’s staff had left with some valuable items…” That basically meant the Jordans could not even afford to find Tiffany! It was horrifying enough that they were out of money and 50 billion in debt, but their company and mansions were all gone, too! Senior Jordan, who remained silent throughout the entire debacle, spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Dad!” Adam, Lily, and Felix ran to support Senior Jordan. “Senior Jordan, this is a trying time in our hands. Please take care of your body!” fretted the attorney. The Jordans were plunged into chaos, and the bank would find them tomorrow. If Senior Jordan became ill, the entire Jordan family would be over…
Senior Jordan gripped his chest as he weakly staggered. He removed the jade ring on his thumb with a trembling hand and handed it to Adam. “Bring this… Take this to the pawnshop for money to…to pay the staff. Report this incident to the police… A-As for the debts, ask for a longer grace period…as long as possible… “Also, no matter what it takes, find out why Tiffany ran away. We must…” She was the heiress of the Jordan family. Why would she run away? There must be some unknown truth she was keeping from them… “Alright, Dad. Don’t panic. Please take good care of yourself; I’ll fix the issue right away,” comforted Adam as he took the jade ring from Senior Jordan’s hands.
The jade ring was the Jordan family’s heirloom from their ancestors, passed down from generation to generation, yet they had to pawn it. The situation had unfolded into the worst possible outcome… Joey came back from the other ward and saw this. Tears slowly dribbled down her cheeks as she fell to the floor listlessly. “How can this be? Waa… How could Tiffany do this?! Why would she do this to us? We’ve treated her with so much kindness since she was a child! Why would she do this…? Waa…!” sobbed Joey, voice hoarse as she did. Still, no one in the ward comforted her and was instead met with Lily’s derision, “What’s the point in crying now? I don’t know how you taught your daughters. The one you brought home ruined the family, while the actual one ran away with our money.”
