Chapter 393 Gladys could only wring her hands anxiously. The whole family was in a state of panic.
Just when they thought they were anxious enough, the Xenoses lawyer’s letter was here to make things worse
It accused Thea of unlawfully possessing the wealth of others and misappropriating 500 million dollars. It demanded
that she return the funds within a certain time frame. Otherwise, she’d be prosecuted in court.
As the saying goes when it rains, it pours. Before they could even pay off David’s debts, the Xenos had transferred
the money in Thea’s bank account away.
The Callahans were in a full-blown crisis.
They gathered.
No one was able to utter a single word. The atmosphere was suffocating.
“Think of something, mom.” Desperate, Alyssa broke the silence. There was nothing Gladys could do. What could
she have done?
They owed the Xenos 500 million. Add that to the 800 million loans and the interests and the amount they needed
was astronomical. Even if they sold the Callahans’Eternality Group, they still would not have enough. “You’re David’s

“How?!”
Thea cried out.
The money was not hers in the first place. It was only natural that the Xenoses wanted it back.
However, David had stolen 500 million from her bank account, and she was forced to pay back his debt. She didn’t
even have 500 million for David at the moment, let alone one billion. “Thea, don’t you know a bunch of rich men?
Try sleeping with them. That way, you can…” Slap! Thea slapped hard Alyssa across the face and snarled, “Why am
I supposed to clean up the mess your husband created? If you’re so desperate, why don’t you sleep with them?”
Alyssa burst into tears.
“I would if they wanted me. How would those powerful men even be interested in someone like me?”
“She’s right, Thea. I’m begging you.” David knelt on the floor again.
“Surely you can’t just stand idly by while I get beaten to death, right? Go find the Black Dragon. Isn’t he the
chairman of Majestic Corporation? Isn’t he filthy rich? What about Mr. Watson? He’s a wealthy man too. Go spend
the night with them. If you’re able to do them, I won’t have to suffere.”
“You…!”
Thea looked at them with tears of rage and despair. 1 What did this have to do with her?
Leaving the fact that they had stolen from her aside, they were demanding her to sleep with rich men to get their
money.
She clasped her hands over her mouth and ran outside in tears.
The sky was overcast.
Boom!
Lightning arced between the clouds.
Pitter-patter!
As if to match the dour mood, fat raindrops began to fall from the darkened sky.
Thea stood in the rain.
She felt like the gray sky was an accurate representation of her own feelings.
She felt that her life was bleak.
For the past ten years she lived as a disfigured woman, she was the laughing stock of Cansington and a burden to
her family. Just as things were starting to get better, this happened.
Everything was smooth sailing with the Black Dragon supporting her from behind.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that he had resigned, she felt like her life had turned upside down.
“Why?! Why me?!”
Standing in the rain, she yelled hopelessly.
However, there was no reply.
The rain eventually subsided.
Thea sat at the bus stop alone. She was soaked by the rain. Her wet clothes clung to her skin revealing her
curvaceous figure. “What should I do?”
She thought long and hard.
She now owed the Xenos 500 million. In addition, her brother owed 800 million to loan sharks. Add the interest into
the equation and the total had surpassed over a billion already. She owed approximately 2 billion dollars in total.
The Xenoses were a rich and powerful family. She had no choice but to comply with their demands.
Maximus was also a vicious and cold-blooded figure of the underworld. If she didn’t pay up. the Callahans would
also be in deep trouble.
But where on earth could she find 2 billion dollars?
