Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher)

Chapter 178

Billy maintained his smiley expression, but the tall, bulky thugs behind him appeared fierce and menacing.

"Okay!" said Tommy, yielding. He gritted his teeth and took out his phone to scroll through his contacts. "Come on, it's just 250 thousand dollars.” After some time, he found Ingrid's number and dialed it

"Hello, Tommy. Why are you calling me at this hour?" Ingrid answered happily.

“Ingrid, I've run into a bit of trouble. Can you lend me 250 thousand dollars? It's for an emergency.” he whispered into the phone.

"A week ago, Uncle Henry mentioned a big project with Fletcher Corporation that needed funding. I gave him over 50 million dollars from there. If you need money now, is there a problem with the project?" she asked anxiously.

"Yes!" he replied. "Didn't Ned just sign a contract with Vitality Biotech Group? I heard there's a hefty penalty for breach of contract. so I don't want to cause more trouble for him.”

"Okay, I'll transfer it to you right away!"

Not forgetting to remind Tommy, she said, "Ned gave our family the projects because he trusts in us. You must handle things properly and not cause any trouble! Otherwise, I won't be able to explain myself in front of Mrs. Fletcher."

"Ingrid, don't worry!" said Tommy, glancing around, before he added, “Ingrid, if you have extra money, transfer it to me too! I'll pay you back after this project is over."

"Okay, okay. You better work hard."

“Don't worry, Ingrid.”

Soon after hanging up the phone, Tommy received 500 thousand dollars from Ingrid. He was smiling happily as he transferred half of it to Billy. He then sneered at Billy, saying, "From now on, I won't borrow any more money from you again. You don't have any trust in your clients!"

Watching Tommy turn and enter the casino again, Billy spat on the ground and led his men back.

Looking at the photos sent by the private investigator, Angeline found it interesting that Tommy had indeed become a gambler.

On the phone, the private investigator said, “During this period, Mr. Yates is so focused on gambling that he hasn't even been with any women

"As far as Fknow... he now owes the casino atleast four million dollars, and there's a contract that states if he can't repay the debt within two weeks, the interest will increase tenfold.” <

Angeline was already aware of this matter.

Hearing this, Angeline understood how desperate Tommy was.

After she was done talking with the private investigator, she called Lily.

"It's about time to meet Tommy. How about tonight?"

"Okay!" Lily responded.

Ending the call, Angeline turned around to look at the photo of her, Anne, and Henrietta on the coffee table.

She smiled and mumbled to herself, "Soon, Tommy will face retribution, and then he will come to apologize to you.”

Soon...

That sameevening, Tommy, who -~ had finally found his lucky star, regained his confidence at the c” casino. With his spirits lifted, he made lavish bets. Content belongs t6 NovelDrama.Org -

Just as he was fully engrossed in his gambling spree. Lily left to go to the restroom. True enough, he began to lose all his bets.

Annoyed, he slammed the cards on the table, more convinced than ever that Lily was indeed his lucky star.
