The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 22

Skylar pursed her lips in disdain when someone mentioned Donald. “Is your sister is blind or something? How can she fall in love with someone like Donald and even register for a marriage certificate with him?”

Kevin answered, “Let's not talk about it anymore. He's a piece of worthless trash!”

“That's true. Oh, whatever. We should hurry and pay back the money so that we can leave. Our recent luck has been so freaking bad.” Skylar spoke in distress as they had lost three hundred thousand in each match. That one night cost them almost three million.

“As long as my sister marries Harrison, he'll undoubtedly pay for our losses. To him, three million is nothing. He'll help us even if we racked up a loss that's worth ten million,” Kevin exclaimed.

Meanwhile, Jennifer got off a taxi in front of Pollerton Pharma. She took a deep breath while looking at the tall, thirty-three-floor building before her. Then, she dialed Harrison's number.

“Jenny, what's up? Why did you suddenly call me?” Harrison's gentle voice spoke through the phone. One could easily guess that he was delighted and anxious upon receiving Jennifer's call.

“I need to borrow one million from you. Something happened to Kev,” Jennifer answered in a low voice.

A silence ensued before Harrison finally answered, “Where are you now? Let's meet up to discuss the details.”

“I'm in front of Pollerton Pharma.”

Excitement coursed through Harrison upon hearing that. He then responded, “Okay. Could you wait for me there? I'll come over to pick you up now.”

“Okay,” Jennifer agreed after a short moment of hesitation.

It was not long before Harrison exited the building and noticed Jennifer. Infatuation flashed in his eyes as he ogled her.

Jennifer donned a slim-fitting white top

that successfully accentuated her slim waist and a pair of skinny jeans, revealing her long, alluring legs.

An air of elegance and gentleness emitted from her.

“Jenny,” Harrison called out while gazing at her intently. At that moment, his lust for her overwhelmed his senses.

Although Donald had never slept with Jennifer, she was still married to him and was legally his wife.

Harrison got excited when that thought struck him as he enjoyed getting involved in intense and complicated entanglements.

He suggested, “Jenny, why don't we talk in my office?”

After a moment of contemplation, Jennifer nodded to agree.

She soon sat on a couch when they reached Harrison's office. Then, the latter handed her a cup of coffee before sitting beside her.

Jennifer was so nervous that she shifted to create some space between her and

Harrison.

That did not offend Harrison. Instead, he flashed her an amused smile and asked, “What's the matter?”

A frown crept up to his face the next second when Jennifer briefly recounted what had happened to Kevin.

Harrison knew about Blade Alliance; The head of their organization was Mark White, who was infamous for being a brute. Garrett had even warned Harrison countless times not to have any ties with Blade Alliance.

“One million is not a big deal. However, it won't be easy for me to retrieve Kevin and his friend,” Harrison stated.

Jennifer's expression quickly soured.

Harrison continued smilingly, “Jenny, I'm not sure if I should tell you something.”

“Go ahead.”

Harrison sized the woman up before fixing his gaze on her delicate face. Then, he stifled a sigh at the thought of her being in love with Donald.

“One million in addition to six hundred thousand... How many years will it take you to earn that sum and repay me?” he cast a suggestive look as he spoke.

Jennifer froze, lowered her head, and muttered, “I swear I'll return the money to you. In five, or maybe ten years, I'll be able to give it all back. At the same time, I'll pay you interest according to the market price.”

Harrison chuckled. “Need I remind you that Donald doesn't have a job now? Plus, Kevin is marrying a girl soon, and you need to take care of your parents. Considering your annual salary is about 100 thousand, it will take many more years before you can pay back the sum you owe me.”

A moment passed before Jennifer replied, “Okay, I see. Thank you for your time.”
