Chapter 540 A New n


    "You''re making it look like I owe you money! Now you''re even asking me to lend you some more?"


    L waspletely dumbfounded. "You''ve taken all my money. I have nothing left. Go to someone


    else!"


    She was telling the truth. She didn''t have a penny to her name.


    "I don''t believe you!" Jeff shot back.


    He raised his head and shouted at Eva, who was in her room, "Mom, L ims to have no money!


    She just wants us to be killed by the debt collectors!"


    Hearing this, Eva and Glenn rushed out of the room at once.


    "You told her?" Eva hissed through gritted teeth. Then, she put on a ttering smile and turned to


    L. "Could you just lend Jeff some money? We''re all family anyway, right? You can''t possibly just


    watch your brother suffer."


    These people were driving L nuts. She shouted hysterically, "But I really have no money!"


    Eva paused for a few seconds and then said, "Ask the Whites for some money then. We have to


    deal with the debt collectors."


    "Why should I help him? He''s the one in debt, not me!" L sneered. Eva was obviously partial to


    her son.


    Eva frowned unhappily. She clicked her tongue and said, "What''re you talking about? We''re a


    family. We share everything, including our troubles."


    They shared troubles? It was obvious that L alone had shouldered all the troubles.


    "I can''t go to the Whites. I''ve cut ties with them." L felt too ashamed to go to her former family. "If


    Jeff can''t pay off his debt, the debt collectors will never leave us alone! Our lives are in your hands


    now, L! You have to fix this!" Eva was done ying nice with L.


    "You... You—!" L was speechless. These people were crazy!


    *******


    In the end, L had no choice but toe crawling back to the White family.


    After exining her plight to Johanna and Beal, they gave her three million for the sake of their


    history.


    L returned home and begrudgingly handed the check to Jeff. "This is thest time I''m helping


    you!"


    Jeff took the check and thanked her with a smile.


    But things didn''t end there.


    Not long after Jeff left with the money, he returned home without a penny left. He knelt down in front


    of L and burst into tears.


    Worse yet, he had never paid off his so-called debt.


    Every day, the creditors woulde to threaten them, sshing red paint on their door and walls.


    Eva couldn''t fight them, so she had no choice but to force L to ask the Whites for money again.


    "L! Aren''t you going to do something about this?" Holding the gas can, Eva pulled Jeff and Glenn


    close to her and said pitifully, "The three of us will die here today, lest you help us!"


    They were threatening her with their lives.


    "Stop it. I''ll go to the Whites, okay?" L was already a little numb from all this lunacy.


    She had been living with the Gillian family for less than two months and she was already on the


    verge of losing it.

    "L, why have you keeping back to us for money? Every single time, you would say it''s the


    last. What do you take us for? Your personal ATM machine?" Livid, Johanna smashed a teacup at


    her feet and roared, "Get out! We won''t give you a single penny!"

    L bit her lip so hard that it bled. She had never seen Johanna so angry before. Clearly, she was


    sick and tired of her.


    She ran out of the house crying.


    Jeff had been waiting for her at the gate of the Whites'' house.


    When he saw here out, he approached her excitedly. "Give me the money first!"


    L red at him and yelled, "What money? There is no money! The Whites refused to give me a


    penny. Figure something out yourself! If you dare to force me again, then let''s just die together!"


    Jeff had been living in luxury these days and refused to go back to his old poor life.


    Seeing that L didn''t get any money, he came up with a bold idea. "You have a sister named J,


    right?"


    He thought since it was so easy to control L, it wouldn''t be hard to control her sister.


    "Let''s find a way to get nude photos of her. We can ckmail her with the lewd photos until she


    gives us money. What do you think?"


    Without L, there was no way Jeff could get in touch with J. Therefore, he had no choice but to


    include this stupid woman in his ns.


    The anger in L''s eyes dimmed somewhat. She looked around to see if there was anyone else


    listening and then said in a low voice, "What do you want me to do?"


    Jeff was a little taken aback. He had thought that he would have to force her to do what he said. He


    didn''t expect that she''d agree so readily.
