Chapter 177

“Don’t worry. Once I hang up, I’ll transfer the money to you,” said Lily Korn.
“Alright. If there’s any more quick money-making business in the future, just let me know!” replied Rosalinda, her eyes curving together with her smile.
On the other end of the line, Lily hung up and transferred the money to Rosalinda before looking at Angeline.
“Angeline, what’s the next step?”
Sitting on the couch, Lily turned to look at Angeline, who was making coffee in the kitchen.
“Let’s give Tommy some time to stew,” she replied as she put down the coffee pot and came out from the kitchen with two cups of coffee.
She handed one to Lily and continued, “Tommy is already addicted to gambling. While he’s looking for you, he’ll surely continue to gamble. When he just can’t win, he’ll become even more desperate to look for you.”
Holding the coffee cup tightly, Lily nodded and said, “No matter what, I’ll make him pay for what he had done!”
Angeline took a sip of her coffee and answered, “Definitely! He will experience everything that you and your sister have suffered!”
Now that Yates Group was responsible for part of the orders from Vitality Biotech Group, they would be dealing with the biggest order they’d ever received in recent years.
How could Yates Group, a so-called conglomerate, be compared to the Fletcher Corporation? With their limited cash flow, it would be interesting to see Tommy embezzling the company’s money, or even stealing the drug formula.
Tommy owed Henrietta a life. Angeline would watch as Tommy suffered before going down on his knees to beg for forgiveness in front of Henrietta’s grave.
As she said, before locating Lily, Tommy had already gone to the casino twice. He also borrowed more money from Billy because he was broke.
Without saying anything, Billy only pushed the contract in front of Tommy, who hastily signed his name on the last page without even reading the terms and conditions.
Grinning, Billy passed the money to him and casually mentioned the debt that he hadn’t paid back. Surely, Tommy said he would repay all the money once he won. “Great! Let’s hope that you can repay the previous debts as soon as possible today, Mr. Yates!” said Billy with a smile before turning to his subordinates. “Escort Mr. Yates out.” Within expectation, Tommy lost all the money again.
As he was about to leave the casino door, he was intercepted by Billy and his men, who dragged him to a secluded alley behind the casino.
“Mr. Yates, we agreed… that you’ll settle the previous debts today,” said Billy, still with a smile.
Tommy looked at the group of people behind Billy, and his expression changed.
With a frown, he said, “I’ve lost all my money today, but rest assured… I, Tommy Yates, am not someone who owes money to others. Once I find my lucky star, I’ll win all the money back in no time!” “But, Mr. Yates, including the interest from before, you already owe me more than five million dollars Billy stated, taking the contract that Tommy signed from his subordinate.
“You see… I lent you so much money
because I trusted you, but now I can’t explain it to my bosses. Anyway today, you have to repay at least the interest of the one million dollars you borrowed the first time, which is 250 thousand dollars.”
Tommy gritted his teeth and reprimanded, “Know your place! My brother-in-law is Ned Fletcher, the CEO of Fletcher Corporation. Do you think I’d owe you this little money? I was just helping your business by borrowing money from you!”
Billy replied, “Yes, yes, yes! Fletcher Corporation is a huge conglomerate, and precisely because you’re Ned’s brother-in-law, I was willing to lend you so much money! Look! Mr. Yates you’ve borrowed a lot of money from me, and it’s
novel.
unacceptable not to repay a single cent, isn’t it?

“Let’s not embarrass each other for the sake of Mr. Fletcher. Just repay the 250 thousand dollars’ interest first since it’s just a small amount for you, isn’t it?”
