Chapter 143
They went to the hospital for a physical check–up. Luckily, Dulcie only had some minor
wounds. She was just scared.
After the doctor left, Silvia sat down by the hospital bed.
“Dulcie, what happened?”
Dulcie remained silent for a while before she said, “My father was gambling again, and he
lost five million dollars this time. They told him if he couldn’t pay them, they would chop
his hand off. He just sold me off to save himself!”
Silvia frowned. “Doesn’t he know that you’ve earned millions of dollars?”
Dulcie shook her head. “I never told him. Otherwise, he would take my money and gamble
with it. I don’t want him to know, and I won’t give it to him either!”
Although Dulcie was tough, Silvia felt sorry for her.
Dulcie used to have a happy family. If her father had not become addicted to gambling,
the Reed family would not have gone bankrupt. Her mother would not have divorced her
father and left too.
“It’s right that you didn’t tell him. Dul, I’ve always wanted to ask if you plan to cut ties
with your
father.”
Dulcie’s eyes shone with surprise. She immediately raised her head and looked at Silvia.
“I’ve never thought about it. But I know that unless I go to a place where no one knows
me, I’ll live under his shadow forever.”
“Gambling is illegal. Besides, he even sold you for money!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDulcie bit her bottom l*p. She understood what Silvia was trying to say.
She closed her eyes, and her voice trembled slightly. “I need to think about it…”
If she sent her father to jail, she would feel more relaxed. At least, she would not have to
worry about a debt collector coming to her.
However, she also had no idea if she would regret her decision one day.
Silvia nodded. “Yes, you can take your time. You can also move away. Whenever you hear
about him, just ignore it.”
“Yeah, I got it. Silvia, you’ve had a long night. Go back and rest. I’m fine on my own.”
When Silvia saw that Dulcie had stabilized, she did not stay any longer.
Back home, she saw Neil waiting for her in the living room and felt a little guilty.
“Mr. Remus, it’s better for your legs if you lie down.”
Neil sneered and said, “If you really care about my health, you wouldn’t have left without
telling me anything. Silvia, do you know how dangerous that was?”
“I could’ve handled it.”
“What if there were more people tonight? You can handle a dozen people but can you deal
with a hundred? No matter how great you are, your stamina is limited!”
When Silvia saw how worried he was, she looked down like a kid who had done something
wrong.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Remus. I didn’t tell you because I was afraid that you’d be worried.”
“Wow, should I thank you?”
When Neil heard that she had gone to Grand Lounge to fight a dozen men alone, he was
furious. He just wanted to bring her back and teach her a lesson so that she would not
dare put herself in danger again.
After Silvia remained silent for a while, she peeked at him.
He still seemed angry. When he sensed her gaze, he glanced at her coldly.
“I’m sorry for worrying you, Mr. Remus, but it’s very late now. We’d better rest since we
still have to work tomorrow morning.”
“I’ll let it go just this once!”
Silvia left it at that and said, “I’ll transfer the six million to your account later. As for
Angel’s Tears, don’t have that much money yet. I’ll pay you back once I’m done
collecting.”
Neil’s face was instantly filled with displeasure. She was being so calculative with him!
“It’s up to you!”
He left and did not look at her again.
Silvia finally sighed in relief when he disappeared. Then, she transferred six million dollars
to him
using her phone.
She did not want to owe him more. Otherwise, she would be indebted to him forever.
The next morning, she bought breakfast and visited Dulcie at the hospital.
Just as she arrived at the ward, she heard Dulcie’s furious voice coming from inside. “I’ve
told you that I didn’t want to see you. Get out of here.”
