Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 684

Aunt held her hand and looked at her guiltily. "Emily, I know that you work so hard and you don't have much savings. But we have no choice but to call you back! I've gathered all the money we have and paid for them. I can't ask our relatives for money because they are also victims. Could you ask your friends or colleagues if they can lend you some money?"

"I will try my best to solve it!" Emily tightly held onto her aunt's hand, biting her lips and saying, "Aunt, uncle, don't worry. Well find a way out together!"

As the evening wore on, a growing sense of despair overwhelmed the whole family.

They put all furniture back to their spots. It was almost midnight before Emily and her aunt finally went back to their own rooms to lie down. She was not in the mood to take a shower, so she simply washed up.

She turned over, and even if she felt exhuasted, she could not sleep at all.

In fact, at that time, she was just comforting them. How could she find a way out?

Before she broke up with Boyd, she had given him all her savings by economizing on food and clothing. Last month, she just became a regular staff, but places like the TV station didn't pay much. Now her bank balance wasn't very large.

As for her friends, her best friend Wendy had already broken up with Mr. Hogg again. This time was different from the last time for she made up her mind not to return to him. Wendy had already planned to leave Ice city. In this case, how could she borrow money from her?

Her colleague Tina had a leukemia daughter in the hospital, and recently she was badly troubled by the custody battle with her ex-husband. Her bosom friend Anthea Lee often stayed in some remote places abroad, and she couldn't easily contact her. What's more, she needed a huge amount of money, the sooner the better.

Emily couldn't help but sigh.

Selena, who was awake, said with hesitation, "Emily, can you ask your husband?"

Simon...

Emily pursed her lips.

She had just thought of so many people in her mind, but they were all rejected one by one. She had already thought of him subconsciously. She suddenly realized that he had become the only one she could rely on.

But she was a little embarrassed to mention it. After all, they got married with a contract. How could she ask him to give her such a large sum of money unconditionally...

After hesitating for a long time, she still took out her cell phone from under the pillow.

After the line was connected, Emily said awkwardly, "Hey, Simon..."

"Who is calling please?"

However, the one who answered the phone was not him, but a woman.

Emily was stunned. She looked at the phone screen and saw that the number was right. She pursed her lips and said, "I'm looking for Simon!"

On the line, the woman replied considerately, "He's taking a shower. Who are you? What's the matter? If that's urgent, I may convey your words to him!"

Her throat suddenly constricted as she thought of the scene in the evening. She could almost conclude that the woman who answered the phone was the one who left in a sedan with him. Like avoiding a plague, she hung up the phone quickly.

Then she turned off the phone and put it under the pillow. She closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.

"Sis, is he going to help us?" Selena asked nervously.

Emily bit her lips and whispered in the dark, "Well find a way to solve it ourselves!"

The next day, in the early morning, Emily, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened by the noise.

Just like her, Selena opened her sleepy eyes, put on clothes, and ran out of the bedroom in a hurry. She saw the living room, which had just been cleaned up last night, was once again in a mess. Several middle-aged men and women were leaving while swearing. The door was open, someone stood there and angrily raised his fist. "Mr. Jones, I don't need interests, just give my money back! I don't have the patience to wait, next time I must bend some stuff!"

"Dad, are you okay?"

Selena limped over and stomped her uninjured foot angrily, "Oh no, is there no justice? We didn't abscond with money. If they come again, we'll call the police!"

"They don't help. This is a civil dispute. We're not expecting any peace- making people." Aunt sighed helplessly, got up, picked up the cushion on the floor, and shook her head.

"Forget it. Don't bother. They will come again at night!"

Emily cooked breakfast. Except for her and Selena, their elders had no appetite. They put down their scoops without even tasting.

This case cast a pall over their cozy home. They lost their jobs, could only hide at home, not even daring to step out of the door. Through the door, they could hear the discussion from their neighbors.

After breakfast, Emily was busy at calling everyone to borrow money, and her cell phone was almost out of power.
