Chapter 587

With that, he hung up the phone again.
“What does that jerk Seth even mean by that?” Claire asked, equally confused after Noreen recounted the conversation.
“What’s this ‘besides money, I have nothing else to give you’ nonsense?”
“Did you ask him for anything else?”
“When you did need something else from him, did he give it to you?”
“He’s insane!”
Noreen agreed. “I have no idea what’s gotten into him.”
Claire asked suspiciously, “You don’t think he’s planning to call off the wedding with Bitch Bianca and try to get back together with you, do you? Because I would lose all respect for him!”
Noreen scoffed. “You’re overthinking it. In that respect, we’re quite similar. Neither of us is the type to go back to our exes.”
“Good!”
Claire knew Noreen’s personality well. She would definitely find a way to pay Seth back that money.
So, she offered a sincere suggestion. “If he really won’t take it, then when jerk Seth and Bitch Bianca get married, you can give it to them as a wedding gift!”
“It’s satisfying and insulting at the same time. The perfect two-for-one deal!”
Claire felt like an absolute genius.
How could she have come up with such a perfect plan?
“I like it!” Noreen said.

Meanwhile.
When Bianca returned from her meeting with Henry, her expression was quite neutral.
As soon as she entered the house, everyone sitting there looked up at her.
Lillian couldn’t wait to ask, “Well? Did Henry agree to the loan?”
Bianca’s eyes flickered. “The amount is a bit large, beyond his current means.”
Lillian was confused. “Isn’t he the
sole heir to the Brooke family? And isn’t the Brooke Group the company with the largest cash flow in the country? It’s only three hundred million. That should be pocket change for people like them.”
Bianca lowered her gaze, her tone casual. “He just returned to the country not long ago and hasn’t
established a firm position in het
group yet. It’s not convenient for him. Everything has to go through official procedures.”
“So how long will that take?” Lillian pressed.
“About two months.”
“That long! The deadline for the payment is one week. In two months… my brother
will already be in jail!” Lillian paced around anxiously.
Lana, hearing the news, started to cry again.
Yvonne’s voice rose sharply. “Alright, does crying solve anything?”
Lana fell silent, though tears continued to stream down her face.
“We’ll get a private loan. I’ve just been looking into it. The PerseTech IPO should be a done deal. Once the approval comes through, the money problem will be solved,” Yvonne said seriously.
This time, Bianca didn’t object. She just said, “Okay.”
“By the way, cousin, has my brother-in-law come back yet?” Lillian suddenly remembered she hadn’t seen Seth in days and asked Bianca.
“Not yet,” Bianca replied.
“Has he called you?”
“He sent me a message. He said he still has some things to take care of overseas and will be back in a couple of days.”
Lillian breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good. As long as he hasn’t said anything else and is still keeping you updated on his whereabouts like before, then everything should be fine.”
The other two also relaxed.
After all, they had all seen with their own eyes how much Seth cared about Bianca.
So they didn’t doubt her words. Get full chapters from.net
Bianca took a sip of water, her eyes downcast.
No one noticed that the hand holding the glass had suddenly tightened.
Seth had not sent her any messages. She had gotten that information from his assistant.
