Chapter 1124


    Chapter 1124 Brother Was Kidnapped


    Why? Why did it turn out this way?


    Shirley used to trust Skyler so much, but now she was utterly disappointed, especially when she heard


    him personally admitting that he wanted the marriage solely because of guilt. It broke her heart.


    All the trust she had in him faded, leaving only the bitter taste of being stabbed by the ''truth.''


    Shey in bed the whole day, dwelling in helplessness and dejection. She recalled what happened


    during the past month. Skyler rarely came over and contacted her. That was enough to prove


    everything.

    However, bad news never came alone. Shirley received a call from her mother in the afternoon.


    As soon as the line got through, her mother''s painful wailing resounded from the other end. "Shirley,


    please save your brother…"


    Shirley woke up from the grief, regaining herposure. "M-Mom, what happened? What''s going on?


    Stop crying."


    Her mother''s emotions easily rubbed off on her.


    Before going to the hidden n, she told her family that she was going elsewhere for intensive training.


    Thus, it couldn''t be the reason for their distress.


    After returning from the hidden n, she only made phone calls to her family and never dared to return


    to them. She was afraid that they would be upset upon finding out about her disfigurement.


    Shirley''s heart tightened at her mother''s crying.


    "Your brother, your brother has done something terrible. I don''t know when did he start gambling. He


    lost over 3 million to someone in the casino. Someone has kidnapped your brother and asked our


    family for money. If we can''t cough up the money, they will kill him. What should I do? What are we


    supposed to do, Shirley?"


    Her mother cried bitterly, and she could faintly hear Tarquin—her father—cursing on the other end. He


    rambled how his son should''ve just died out there.


    Shirley''s brother, Lucien Wilson, had been working and had always treated her well. Shirley never


    expected that he would get himself involved in gambling and be in debt of over 3 million! It was such a


    huge sum of money!


    "How could this happen?" She flopped on the bed, anxiously running her hand through her hair. "What


    did the casino''s management say?"


    "They said that if we can''te up with 3.9 million within two days, they will kill Lucien. Just how did I


    end up with such a son? Gosh." Her mother cried in despair, breaking her heart.


    "Mom, don''t worry, I—I will find a way to solve it. I will find a way. Stop crying. Don''t worry," Shirley


    comforted her mother over the phone before asking Tarquin to get on the phone. She tried tofort


    him as well.


    Half an hourter, the call finally ended. She sat there, feeling helpless and overwhelmed.


    She suddenly regretted; she regretted discarding the credit card upon learning the truth that it was


    impossible to recover her looks. It was apensation worth 7.5 million from Crayson.


    She lost hope after knowing that her looks were beyond recovery. On the day she moved out of


    Pinewoods Vi, she threw everything that didn''t belong to her away.


    "What should I do? What can I do?" She sobbed in desperation.


    She held her phone and finally decided to call Skyler but in vain. She made several calls in a row, but


    no one answered.


    "The person you are calling is unavable. Please try againter..."


    Each time the mechanical voice rang into her ear, her heart grew colder and colder. Was it because


    she was aware that Sofia was already pregnant?


    Suddenly, she began feeling nauseous and covered her chest.
