Chapter 2197


    Dahlia felt a twinge of guilt and immediately lost the fiery momentum of her earlier shouting, but she still


    pushed herself to say, "She already has asthma, so who''s to me if she can''t control her emotions?"


    Trevor remarked casually, "The people Jaylene brought with her said you swindled her out of her


    money. This matter seems rted to her condition, right?"


    Dahlia''s heart skipped a beat, and then she spotted Ste. Her eyes instantly lit up. "Ste, you’ve


    come at the perfect time."


    Ste hesitated.


    It was odd. It was the first time Dahlia had spoken to her with such enthusiasm.


    Dahlia attempted to approach, but Trevor calmly positioned himself in front of Ste, preventing Dahlia


    from getting too close.


    Dahlia halted in her tracks, eager. "Ste, you promised me before that you''d give me a billion to settle


    thepany’s debts. You can''t just go back on your word."


    Her eyes suggested to Ste that if she didn''t hand over the money, she shouldn''t be surprised if


    Dahlia ignored their familial ties.


    Ste pursed her lips. "I agreed to give you a billion because you imed Kanrara ran off with the


    money, leaving thepany in debt. I gave you the money to clear that debt, but instead, you handed


    it over to your brother and sister-inw for their enjoyment. Your brother splurges at the casino, and


    your sister-inw stays in luxury hotels. Why should I foot the bill for them?"


    Dahlia was taken aback. After calming down, she finally realized what was amiss.


    ke had clearly stated that Kanrara had absconded with the money, so why was Kanrara at the


    hospital with him?


    Dahlia nced at ke, about to inquire, but ke nervously interjected," Dahlia, don''t listen to her


    nonsense. I just happened to bump into Rara."


    "Just happened to bump into her?" Ste smirked slightly. "At midnight, in the hospital? Why did my


    brother say it was you and your wife who took Jaylene to the hospital?"


    If it weren''t for the doctor warning that Jaylene''s condition was severe and fearing legal consequences,


    the two would have fled long ago.


    Jaylene wouldn''t have visited Kanrara''s ce without reason. Dahlia had clearly informed Jaylene


    earlier that Kanrara had run off with the money.


    Jaylene had gone to Kanrara to request for money back, and something had urred at Kanrara''s


    residence. Kanrara had then reached out to ke, and the two had escorted Jaylene to the hospital.


    With this matter cleared up, Dahlia''s heart sank. She looked at ke with a pale face. "What actually


    happened? ke, you’d better exin! I transferred over two hundred million to you. Where did it go?


    Did you lose it gambling, or did you give it to this contemptible woman?"


    Kanrara''s expression also changed. "Two hundred million?"


    She pped ke hard across the face, gritting her teeth. "Wasn''t it eight million? Where did the rest


    of the money go?"

    Seeing her brother being pped, Dahlia instinctively struck Kanrara back.


    Kanrara, incensed, seized Dahlia by the cor and mmed her against the wall, delivering a p.


    "You wench! I''ve tolerated you for too long! Do you still think you''re thedy of this house, strutting


    around, giving orders?"


    Dahlia was no match for Kanrara at all. Her eyes zing with anger, she tried evading and cursed,


    "You despicable woman! I knew you were behind ke''s actions! If it weren''t for you, how could the


    Crosby family have ended up like this? You jinx-"


    p!


    Kanrara delivered a stinging p. "The Crosby family, ke, all of it—it''s all because of you, you


    worthless piece of trash!"
