Chapter 236


    Isabe didn’t get mad, but instead, she shed an ingratiating smile and said respectfully, “rk, my c


    urrent predicament is temporary. I have plenty of ways to solve my problems and start anew. Have you


    forgotten? Over the years, every time you’ve screwed up a business deal, I was the one who bailed yo


    u out with my money”


    rk was no whizz at business, but he loved to show off his chops. With arrogance and narcissism, he


    always thought he was the smartest guy in the room. He looked down on small deals and always


    wanted to go big or go home.


    But he couldn’t handle the big leagues. Every single time he tried to do business, he’d lose at least a h


    undred grand.


    rk was always a mama’s boy. His mom was a hard–


    ass, and although he strutted around like a big man on campus, he turned


    into a little boy when he got home, always groveling in front of his mom.


    If his mom ever asked him where the money went, he’d get scared shitless.


    To keep her spot as rk’s fiancee, Isabe kept pulling rk’s ass out of the fire.


    And where did she get her cash? Mostly by ckmailing Faye with the fact that Thssa was still alive.


    She made some dough with her ownpany, but it was peanutspared to what rk was burning


    through.


    Hearing her words, rk calmed down.


    For the past five years, he couldn’t figure out why he kept losing money in his business deals..


    The capital he used to do business was always siphoned off from the family ount under the radar.


    If his mom found out, she’d blow a gasket.


    Every time he lost money, Isabe would step in and save his bacon.

    He trusted that Isabe had the chops.


    Five years ago, Isabe had fooled around with another guy behind his back!


    This was a bitter pill that rk couldn’t swallow. He depended on Isabe’s abilities, but he couldn’t for


    get what she had done.


    He was always sharp–tongued with Isabe, never being gentle to her.


    Even when they got intimate, he’d berate her without pity.


    rk calmed down, his face still showing his anger. “Alright. What’s your n?”


    Isabe chuckled and said, “rk, I know you’re the mostpetent man. You can


    easily get five million–dors to repay Lysander. It’s a piece of cake for you.”


    Isabe didn’t have five million dors to her name, and even if she sold herpany, she wouldn’t co


    me close.


    Lysander was a cold–blooded bastard. This time, he only crippled her


    because of Thssa. He gave her a chance to pay back the money, and then they’d be square.


    If she didn’t take this opportunity, things could get a lot worse.


    So, she had to get her hands on five million dors ASAP and pay Lysander back herself, telling him th


    at she knew she screwed up and was


    willing to make it right. That was her way of showing her sincerity.


    If she waited any longer, Lysander might lose his patience.


    So, she had no choice but to turn to rk.


    Even though rk was ipetent and arrogant, he was an absolute sucker for ttery.


    As long as someone told him he was capable, he’d be over the moon.


    After so many years with rk, Isabe knew him like the back of her hand.


    rk furrowed his


    brow and said, “How the hell am I supposed to pull that kind of money out of thin air right now?”


    “You can tell your mom you need it for an investment as the startup capital,” Isabe suggested.


    “My mom knows I’ve screwed up a lot of investments before. She’s not g
