Chapter 477 Breathless
- Her daughter was too smart. Even if they refused to tell, Gloria would tell her everything sooner or later and might even exaggerate things. That would stimulate Angela even more. Claude had the same thought. His face was ashen, but he couldn’t argue about it. He looked gloomy. Angela got the answer from their looks. Her judgment was correct. Sad but true! How she wished that she was wrong! The mood of her parents said otherwise. Her father had sold all their assets to hire someone to steal the business secrets of the Collins Group. The hacker had failed at the last layer of protection, and their money was gone.
- Her eyelashes fluttered, and the tears streamed down her cheeks. Martha grabbed her hand in a hurry and comforted her, “Angela, don’t take it too hard. Your dad is still the chairman of the White Group. Although he hasn’t taken office for long, he has obtained a lot of assets. We’ll be rich again.” Angela burst into tears and gave a bitter smile. “Be rich again? Since Gloria knows about this matter, Jordy should also be in the know. Do you think he’ll allow anyone to challenge him like that? Do you think we still have a future?” She felt cold and shuddered. She huddled herself, but chills kept going through her. She was terrified to the core.
- “He may be busy right now. When he is free and thinking about dealing with us, do you think we can fight with the Collins Group? Dad, what was driving you so desperate? That was bold.” Martha, who was also full of resentment, took a deep breath. Back then, she had scolded Claude for taking such a risk, but her advice hadn’t been in vain. Nothing could stop the man. Looking back, she believed that they had been fooled by that hacker. He had played a trick on them and cheated two billion dollars out of them. He told them he had failed, but she believed that he could finish his job. Right now, she couldn’t accuse her husband together with her daughter. Claude would be overwhelmed, and Angela would be more irritated. She took another deep breath and said, “Angela, you should calm down. I knew about this matter and lost my temper back then. I found it hard to accept and hated your dad for taking such a great risk.”
