"If you ever dare to gamble again, I'll personally chop off your hands!" Travis gritted his teeth in fury.
"Why are you scaring him now that he's just woken up? There's no way he could have lost that much money all by himself! It must have been that bitch Sabrina!" Melina shouted before marching towards the hospital room door and calling Sabrina in.
After glancing at Kaleb, Sabrina lowered her head in guilt, unable to answer Melina's question.
"Mom... don't blame Rina... Someone was targeting me last night, it's the only reason we lost so much money!" Kaleb's voice was weak, but his mind was clear, "It was Elijah... It has to be him! He's been holding a grudge since I dated Violette, he hates me!"
"I know it was your uncle who did this! He's been holding a grudge against you! He doesn't respect your father at all!" Melina exclaimed, "He has a big problem with his personality! He's not normal! We shouldn't have messed with him!"
Travis forcefully shoved his wife, "What are you talking nonsense for in front of others!
If your son were more driven and ambitious, Elijah wouldn't have been able to harm him so effortlessly! Look within yourself to find the root of the issue! The two of you give me a headache!
With that, Travis stormed off in a huff.
Melina broke down in tears.
"Mom! Stop crying! It's all my fault! I'm such a loser! Why did you guys even save me? I might as well be dead!" Kaleb shouted.
"Kaleb! Don't say that... Even though you're not as successful as your uncle, you're still much better in my eyes!" Sabrina comforted him, "You just need to recover. Once you're better, we'll find a way to get back at your uncle! If he's gone, your dad won't compare you to him anymore."
Kaleb's mood suddenly calmed down.
Melina's crying abruptly stopped.
"Kaleb, you've seen Violette's true colors, haven't you? She's in cahoots with Elijah! Don't hold any feelings for her anymore! We should get rid of them both! If they're gone, your uncle's fortune will be ours." Sabrina revealed her ambitions.
Melina walked over, giving Sabrina a cold stare.
"What can you bring to the table? I heard your mom swindled a lot of money from the Dennis family, why isn't she helping you pay off the debt from last night?!"
