Jane sat weakly on the sofa, feeling down.
There were several people around her, all around her age.
They were all Jane's family.
In fact, Jane's family had preference for boys, and she had suffered a lot before she met Evie's father.
After marrying Brian, she became a wealthy woman in the eyes of others.
The relatives who had no contact with her suddenly became attentive.
Jane was proud. They used to treat her badly, but she enjoyed being adored by them.
So she would occasionally help them out.
In recent years, the Hansen family's business has been booming.
Those people were jealous and begged for a share of the business.
They could make about a million dollars a year.
Last month should have been the half-yearly settlement.
Including the cost, they should have received four to five million dollars.
In the past, the Hansen family always settled their bills quickly.
They would bring the bills for financial calculation, and they would receive the money two to three days later.
But this time, it had been a month already.
They urged the treasurer the day before yesterday and learned that the treasurer had already resigned.
And they learned from the treasurer that the Hansen family's company was in trouble.
The Pierce family was shocked.
They immediately dropped everything and came to Girard City.
