Ashley couldn't care less about her image anymore, as she looked like a cat on hot bricks.
It wasn't easy for Fabian and me to get together. Now that the Miller family's in trouble, what would Fabian think of me?Would he take a penniless woman as his wife?
"Fabian, what should we do? What should I do? You must think of something to help Dad!" Ashley implored.
"Nothing can go wrong with this business deal or the Miller family is finished!" Emma was psyched out as well.
Frozen account? God! Are we going to go bankrupt?
How am I supposed to live without all these luxuries?
"What have you done, Harvey? How could you let the company get into trouble?" Emma rebuked. "Have you offended anyone? Or were you cheated? Why is my life so miserable? I'm finally at the age to enjoy a happy life after suffering with you for so many years. How are we going to pay off this debt in this lifetime?"
At that, Emma started sobbing. As Ashley went up to comfort her, her tears started falling as well.
Fabian frowned.
"Don't worry, Mr. and Mrs. Miller. I'll see to the end of this. You need not worry too much. Just take care of yourself." Harvey reproached himself as well.
How could I be so careless? I was sure that there wasn't any problem when I investigated them previously. Why is it so sudden that we're being investigated to the point of getting our accounts
frozen?
