Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 439

Laura spoke with concern on her face, "Listen, Agnes, I suggest you sell your 20% stock in Starlight International Group shares as soon as you can. If the company goes belly up, your shares will be worth jack, and you might even end up in debt. I'm just looking out for you, I'm willing to help you sell it, even if it means owing someone a favor. I know you're not short on cash, and even if you can't rely on the Whitfield family in the future, you'll still have a worry-free life."

Agnes responded coldly, "Ms. Laura, save your breath. I won't sell my stocks. Since you've sold yours and made a fortune, why are you selling this house?"

Laura's face changed, "The money I got from selling those stocks isn't enough to cover the debts, Agnes. You probably have no idea how much debt your father has accumulated from his investments. I tried to talk him out of it, but you know your father’s temper, gentle on the outside, but inside he's stubborn. He wouldn't listen to me. Now he's fine, don't worry about anything, all the pressure is on me. I'm a woman after all, I have no choice but to sell this house to make ends meet. Agnes, you need to understand me."

Agnes saw through Laura's true intentions.

Her father's current situation, Laura already had her eyes on someone new.

Berlin Thomas was a big shot in the Capital.

If Laura really tied the knot with him, she would definitely leave.

What she didn't expect was that Laura would sell the Pritchard family's old house before leaving, but she put all the blame on Preston.

Preston's investments over the years might indeed have been a loss.

But Agnes didn't know exactly what happened.

Laura took advantage of this to render Agnes speechless.

Agnes chuckled coldly, "Ms. Laura, as far as I know, my father still had other properties over the years. Why not sell those instead of mortgaging the old house?"
