The Son-In-Law Shot To Fame Chapter 151
Son-In-Law Madness
After all, Skylar and Kevin had arranged their marriage. They were also supposed to hold their wedding soon.
Rupert patted his thigh and asked, âDo you want to sit here?â
Jennifer shook her head, standing still. âMr. Rodriguez, please just tell me that can you give me a few more days to settle that?â
Rupert broke into a laugh. âYou look like youâre afraid of me.â
Jennifer tried to calm herself down. âNo. Iâm just not used to such an occasion.â
Rupert lifted his arm to look at his watch. âLet me tell you clearly. You have 3 hours left until the deadline for the payment. I know youâre short of money now, but itâs okay. You have a lot of choices here tonight. How about I introduce them to you accordingly?â
Jennifer remained silent. Upon seeing that, Rupert continued, âI donât have to introduce Mr. Ono and Mr. Sanders to you, right? Youâve met them before.â
Then, he pointed at the Yartran man in his suit. âThis is Shima Nagakawa, the president of Pollerton Hidden Arts Association. Heâs powerful and rich.â
Shima glanced at Jennifer coldly. It seemed like he was uninterested in greeting her.
âAs for this man, heâs Jimâs cousin, Jay Carter.â Rupert pointed at the man with a potbelly. âAll the people here today are filthy rich. They are able to give you a hundred million, at least.â
âSo?â Jennifer asked.
âSo, you have many options here. You can choose to stay by my side for a year to clear your debt.
Also, you can try borrowing money from them. As long as youâre capable enough, theyâll be willing to help you.â Rupert chuckled.
Jenniferâs expression changed drastically. She had long known that they were up to no good, With that, the men turned to look at her curiously, Jennifer took a deep breath and said, âIâm sorry. Your conditions are too harsh for me.â
Rupert continued staring at her as he put on an innocent look. âItâs okay. You donât have any choices either. After midnight, Iâll kill your entire family if I donât receive the payment.â
Hearing that, Jenniferâs face went pale.
Although one might not believe what Rupert said, Jennifer knew he was telling the truth. After all, she had watched the video of how Rupert killed and skinned a man on a USB back then.
Therefore, she did not doubt the authenticity of Rupertâs words.
âJennifer, why donât you try borrowing money from them?â Skylar asked out of the blue.
A man was rubbing her back, but she remained unbothered.
âYou canât rely on anyone now. We all know that Donald canât help you this time. He canât even protect himself since heâs the outcast of the Campbell family. Everyone knows the attitude of the Campbell family toward the outcast,â Yvette added, âHeâs just a piece of trash, anyway. Why donât you just borrow money from these people? Thatâs not a big deal.â
The next moment, she leaned closer to Akioâs ear and whispered, âYou donât know who she is, do you?
Sheâs Donaldâs ex-wife. But then, Donald has never laid a finger on her, so sheâs still a virgin.â
A glint of light flashed across Akioâs eyes as soon as he heard that. He pointed at Jennifer, saying, âI donât mind lending you some.â
Jennifer was stunned. She could not help but look at Akio. âThank you very much. How much is the interest? Iâll pay you back the full amount within a year.â
Akio waved his hand. âI donât need any interest. Iâll lend you money for a year, but you have to play a game called âThe Wheel of Fortuneâ with me throughout the year!â
Jennifer was puzzled. She did not understand what was that game about.
Yveule pegled cheekily before explaining it to her, Jenniferâs face turned as pale as a sheet of paper, What? I canât believe that thereâs such a shameless game!
âI can also provide you with an interest-free loan. But, I want to join The Wheel of Fortune too!â Jay interrupted.
Jenniferâs eyes turned teary. Just then, she felt like she was an animal being humiliated by the others.
Stark despair and utter helplessness inundated her.
However, the men fixated their eyes on her while smiling gleefully. The more helpless she looked, the more excited they were.
