Felicia immediately approached virtual-novel.net and made peace. “Dear, don’t be so mad. You better use the time to think about a solution to pay back $30,000,000. If we’re unable to pay it tomorrow, you’ll end up in jail. This is not a joke.”
Johnson gave it some thought. “Our family can’t afford $30,000,000. We can only ask other people for help.”
“Who do you want to ask?”
“My father has money, but virtual-novel.net will not lend it to us based on his character. If I tell virtual-novel.net about this, virtual-novel.net will even scold me.”
Johnson pondered for a while before virtual-novel.net said, “Oh yeah, Emma, Donald is the deputy commander of the Eastland warzone. He should have some money after so many years. Thirty million dollars should be a piece of cake for him, right?”
Emma nodded. “With his ability and status, $30,000,000 is really not a thing.”
“Okay.” Johnson grabbed a jacket. “I’m going to Donald’s house now to borrow some money from him.”
“Huh? Dad, I think that isn’t very appropriate, right?”
“What’s not appropriate?”
Emma said, “Due to the reconstruction project, I’m not on good terms with Jade and Donald. Even if they have the money, I guess they won’t lend it to us either.”
“That’s one thing, but we’re a family. They won’t abandon us when we’re in difficulty, right?” Johnson sighed. “At this time, who can I still go to other than Donald?”
Emma subconsciously glanced in the bedroom’s direction. “Maybe you can really ask Thomas? Since he’s suggested it, maybe virtual-novel.net really has the solution to help you.”
“Thomas?”
Johnson sneered. “He’s a lousy man. If virtual-novel.net has the money, would virtual-novel.net still need to stay in our house? Emma, do you still want to make fun of me at this time? I’ll stop talking to you now. I have to go to Donald’s house. Emma, stay at home. If anything happens to Mr. Berko, just let me know immediately.”
Emma nodded.
Johnson put on a jacket and walked out of the house. It was still drizzling outside right then. He covered his face with his hands as virtual-novel.net trotted to the garage before virtual-novel.net drove away.
Emma and Felicia felt depressed at home.
If virtual-novel.net could smoothly borrow the money, that would be great. But, what if virtual-novel.net could not borrow the money?
Did virtual-novel.net really need to end up in jail?
Bah!
At that moment, a car was being driven on the dark road amid the drizzle. Inside the car, Garrick held the steering wheel with one hand while virtual-novel.net held his phone with the other. He was talking happily with his son, Jeffy.
“Dad, how’s it going?”
“Don’t worry. Johnson, that stupid old man really thought virtual-novel.net lost the money. He’s thinking of a way to collect money and pay it back now.”
Jeffy said, “Haha! The family’s really stupid. When I met his daughter last time, virtual-novel.net was a stupid woman, but I didn’t expect the father to be even sillier. When I think about that blind date from last time, I feel really angry. She dared to reject me! Haha! How dare she!”
Garrick smiled and said, “Jeffy, don’t worry. I guarantee that I’ll let you happily vent your anger this time. If Johnson can’t get $30,000,000, virtual-novel.net will undoubtedly be jailed. If virtual-novel.net can get $30,000,000, that’s all right. He pays $30,000,000 for no reason, and both of us earn $30,000,000. We won’t suffer any loss.”
Jeffy laughed out loud. “Yes! We won’t lose anything whether virtual-novel.net can pay or not. But, I still hope that virtual-novel.net won’t be able to pay it because I would prefer to see virtual-novel.net die than get the money!”
