    Chapter 87 See You in Court


    Beck and Jane slept in separate rooms after a messy fight.


    Early the next morning, Beck was sleeping on the big bed in the guest room when his phone suddenly


    rang


    with an ear-piercing ringtone.


    He fumbled for the phone in a daze and heard a panicked voice as soon as he picked it up. “Sir, the


    lawyers of the Smith Group came over with a default notice and asked us to pay the default today. We


    don’t have 200 million! Pleasee over right now. If we can’t pay them today, they’ll sue us.”


    Beck was instantly wide awake. He didn’t expect Alston toe at him early in the morning, and he


    wasn’t


    even prepared.


    His heart was beating violently, and he almost had a heart attack. “Wait for me. I’ll be there soon.”


    “Hurry up! I can’t hold them any longer!”


    Then, he hung up the phone immediately.


    Beck hurriedly got up from the bed and wanted to put on a suit, only to realize that he and Jane were


    still


    fighting, so Jane didn’t ask the servant to prepare his clothes.


    Beck was furious, but he could only put on the suit ofst night. It was wrinkled after the fighting, but he


    had no time to deal with it. It took 20 minutes to arrive at thepany, so he put on the suit and rushed


    downstairs without even washing up.


    Jane only saw him rushing past her like a gust of wind. She was stunned for a moment, then thought


    about


    Although she hated Beck, she didn’t want the Miller family to go bankrupt. Otherwise, her life would be


    ruined. She wouldn’t even want to live anymore if all the good stuff in her life disappeared.


    Thinking of this, she quickly picked up her phone and called her family, trying to borrow some money.


    However, everyone already knew what had happenedst night. The Green family and the Smith


    Group had be enemies of the Miller Group. Now, everyone was avoiding the Miller family.


    Jane knew nothing about this. She got on the phone, but her family only said a few words and hung up


    instantly before she could react.


    “Jane, don’te back to our family or contact us again, for the old time’s sake.”


    Jane held the phone nkly and listened to the beeping sound from the other side. It took her a long


    time to


    realize that her family had abandoned her, and she gritted her teeth in sorrow.


    “Mom, what’s the matter?” Cherry asked. She rubbed her eyes and went downstairs, vaguely seeing


    Jane’s dazed expression.


    Jane looked up at her nkly with a desperate expression. “Cherry, we’re doomed.”


    Cherry froze, and she grasped the wooden railing firmly.


    Beck finally made it to the Miller Group within thirty minutes.


    Lawyers of the Smith Group sat together. All of them were dressed in suits, each at the top of their


    career. They looked at Beck with sharp eyes and an imposing manner.


    Beck wiped his sweat and looked at the manager of the Miller Group opposite them. The manager


    almost cried out in despair and shouted instantly when he saw Beck, “Sir, you are here.”


    The head of thewyers coughed lightly and said, “Since you’ve arrived, let’s deal with this matter


    quickly. Your previous action of terminating the contract privately was a breach of contract. It is clearly


    stated in the contract you have to pay the default of 180 million within three to four working days, and


    you have personally agreed to this.”


    Beck almost copsed when he heard the 180 million. He kept wiping his cold sweat and nodded.


    “Yes.”


    Thewyer continued, “Mr. Smith gave you plenty of time to prepare the default for the sake of the


    rtionship between your families. However, you were ungrateful and even dared to jeer at him. As a


    result, Mr. Smith decided that you should pay us as scheduled. Today is thest day, and I hope you


    can get the money prepared before 6 pm. Otherwise, we have the right to sue you, and we’ll see you in


    court.”


    Thewyer was smiling, but his words made every one of the Miller Group shudder.


    The managers looked at Beck with resentment. They could’ve had enough time to prepare the default,


    but Beck ruined everything. Now, they had no other choices.


    Beck couldn’t regret it anymore. He was dazzled by the victoryst night and forgot how merciless and


    cruel


    Alston was.


    The Miller Group only had 90 million as working capital, which wasn’t enough to pay the default at all.


    And even if they paid it, there wouldn’t be enough money if the Miller Group ran into more trouble. They


    could easily go bankrupt without money.


    Beck panicked. He found an excuse to go out and called re. However, he made several calls, but


    re


    answered none of it.


    *D*mn you, re! You did it on purpose to take revenge on me for what happenedst night!” Beck


    thought.


    Beck was furious, yet re still didn’t answer. He could only call some friends to borrow money, but


    none of his so-called friends were willing to answer his calls.


    He only borrowed a few million after contacting almost everyone, and it was not even close to 180


    million. He squatted on the ground dejectedly and rubbed his face in despair.


    In the end, he called Jane tremblingly, wanting her to borrow some money from her family. But he didn’t


    expect to hear Jane scolding and crying on the phone.


    “Beck, it’s all your fault. My family has abandoned me. Why am I so unlucky? How could I marry such a


    useless wreck like you…”


    Beck hung up the phone in a daze when Jane was still scolding furiously. Now hisst hope was gone.


    He


    looked aside and saw thewyers sitting in the conference room, and his heart became a mess.


    He was extremely confused when a manager suddenly rushed out excitedly and asked him toe in.


    Beak looked a little dazed and followed him into the meeting room.


    “What… what’s wrong?”


    The stern-lookingwyer on the opposite showed him a gentle smile, and Beck subconsciously


    shuddered warily.


    Thewyer smiled and turned on the speaker. “Mr. Smith wants to speak with you.”


    Beck walked over, and Alston’s deep voice came out of the speaker.


    “Mr. Miller, I know your situation quite well. It is tough for you to pool 180 million in one day.”


    Beck sneered. Alston knew it was hardly possible, yet still forced him to do it. And now he was being


    too pretentious.


    Alston seemed to know what Beck was thinking and continued, “I know you resent me. After all, I


    promised to give you time to prepare. But a contract is a contract, and everything is written clearly. I


    don’t think this is too much. However, I don’t want to push you too hard, so I’ll make an offer. If you


    ept it, you don’t need to pay the default.”


    Beck cheered up instantly. His eyes lit up, and he was even a little excited because he would be sued if


    he couldn’t pay that 180 million.


    “What… what’s the offer? Tell me.”


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    He tried his best to control his emotions, forcing himself not to be too excited. He didn’t want to be


    tricked by Alston.


    “You know I always love Cynthia. But, as your daughter, she only has 15% of the shares while Cherry


    has 20%. I can’t ept it. Well, you give another 10% to Cynthia, and I’ll wipe off your debt right now.


    What do you


    think?”


    Beck’s face turned livid.


    How could Alston evene up with that offer? Beck couldn’t believe what he had heard.


    The value of 10% of the Miller Group’s shares was worth far more than 180 million, and Beck couldn’t


    afford such a great loss.


    “No!” Beck refused without hesitation.


    Alston sneered. “Then I’ll see you in court.”
