Chapter 1054
Yesterday Braylon gave me a report on my dad’s situation. The people under his command designed to make my dad “lose” a lot of money, and they also acted as debt collectors, coming to my dad’s door every day to threaten him. My dad’s two mistresses also ran away. My dad asked Quentin and Kimberly for money but didn’t get any. Indeed, the amount was too large; even though Quentin wanted to help him out of some family affection, Kimberly probably wouldn’t agree. The situation my father is in now is like “being abandoned by the crowd and having nowhere to go.” My dad was still urging me to come down on the phone. I asked indifferently, “What’s the matter? Just say it over the phone.”
My father clicked his tongue and urged, “You can’t make it clear over the phone, Ralda. Hurry down, I’m really getting anxious. If you don’t come down soon, I might not be able to hold on.” Listening to his voice, it did sound like he was on the verge of tears. I said lightly, “Okay, you wait down here for a while.”
“Hey, hurry up, or those debt collectors will chop me into five pieces.”
“You deserved it when you were dismembered by five horses,” I said flatly. Before he could blame me, I just hung up the phone directly.
Although my dad came to stay with me this time, there is a high probability that he will help me expose Kimberly’s wrongdoing. But I still felt that everything was going too smoothly, just like when my mom found a kidney source back then, smoothly enough to make me feel uneasy. So, in order to prevent him from going back on his word later, before going down, I deliberately turned on the recording on my phone.
As soon as I pushed open the door, my dad hurriedly came up to greet me. “Ralda, you finally agreed to come and see me."
I glanced at the imprint on the door and sneered at him, “Dad, come to think of it, this Duffy villa has been passed down to us from our ancestors, the Duffy family. You almost took off this gate today. How can you let my grandfather rest in peace underground?”
“Tsk!” My father obviously did not like hearing these words, and his brow instantly furrowed. He said, “Ralda, am I really your father? Do you really want to humiliate your father like this? And I’m just temporarily down on my luck; it’s not like I won’t have the chance to make a comeback. When I make big money, I will definitely buy back this villa.”
I pulled my lips and said, “Stop dreaming, get to the point, what do you want from me?”
When I asked this, my father immediately looked at me with a pitiful expression. “Ralda, can you lend me some money?”
I chuckled and said, “Don’t ask me for money, go find Quentin and Kimberly. Don’t forget, when you helped Kimberly smear me four years ago, I was no longer your daughter. So, borrowing money, don’t come to me!”
“It was not my choice.” My heart trembled, and I unconsciously clenched my phone. My dad didn’t deny it this time, as he had done several times before. Did he really fall out with Kimberly and Quentin? I didn’t say anything; I just looked at him quietly, waiting for him to continue.
He sighed and said somewhat regretfully, “I had no choice at that time. I was in desperate need of money, and the woman Kimberly arranged to be by my side was also scheming.”
