Finally, the whole deception unfolded in front of
Joey's eyes. 1
As it turned out, not only was Max not as wealthy and successful as he had claimed he was but had also gotten into massive trouble. 4
He had crashed Jayden's Phaeton and urgently needed to compensate Jayden with a new car, so he had tricked him into investing six hundred thousand t o the so-called get-rich-quick scheme that he constantly boasted about. 7
The worst part now was that the b*stard was dead, which also meant that he wouldn't see any of his money ever again. 1
At this moment, his heart hurt so much. It hurt more than the physical pain he suffered.
Jayden was a little relieved as Joey was not as insane as he had been earlier, and said, "So, now you know this car is mine and I can drive it without any issues, okay?" 6
Although Jayden found Joey disdain, he knew it would be wiser for him to keep his distance away from him after seeing his crazy state. 5
He'd seen a lot of people in the underworld after so many years, so he knew that this kind of person was actually very hazardous and he shouldn't mess with
them. If he went on provoking him, he was very likely t o go all out and fight. 5
It simply wasn't worth the risk, and it was best not to make him more anxious.
Joey felt as if the sky was collapsing on him.
He didn't even dare to think about what he should do i n a week's time, i
Some of the online money lenders would start their repayment next week and he didn’t know what they would do to him if he couldn’t pay up. 6
