Honey You Are My Lucky Star (Callen and Chelsea) novel Chapter 15

In the end, I gave up turning to Harrison and decided to get through it alone.

No matter how hard I feel, I keep working. I've been on leave for more than half a month because of my injury and my mother's illness, so I can't afford to make any more mistakes at work.

My job is the only way out for me.

Mom is still in a coma. In just a few days, I have tremendous financial pressure.

And I fell into a suffering whirlpool that I had never experienced before.

Coming home from the hospital at night, I see two men hanging around the front door of my house. I think they're bad guys so I want to call the police, but one of them calls me.

"Chelsea Hodges?"

I look at them in confusion and ask, "Who are you?"

"Someone borrowed money from us two months ago and your mother was the guarantor. He was supposed to pay us back a month ago, but he disappeared. That's why we are here."

"How is that possible?" I quickly deny. "Are you serious? My mother wounld't be the guarantor."

Hearing this, the man takes out an IOU from his bag. I clearly see my mother's signature on it and the amount of the loan: one million.

I almost fall down. Why would my mother guarantee such a huge loan?

"My mother is just the guarantor. Why don't you go to the guy who borrowed the money?" I ask.
