Chapter 135
A deal with the devil
Chapter 135 Henry Immediately asked, âDad, whatâs wrong?
Sitting beside Henry, Sabrina also looked anxiously at Richard Richardâs expression darkened as he muttered, âThis shouldnât be happening. At a time like this, what other option does that old man have besides selling the land Sabrina furrowed her brows in contusion. âCould it be that those men didnât destroy my two cars?
Those two st sponsor cars were worth over ten million in total Turbo Impact was practically bankrupt and couldnât possibly afford to compensate for the loss. Many of their race cars had been purchased with bank loans, using the Land as collateral. With all the cars being destroyed, selling the land seemed to be Tomasâ only way out.
Henry suggested, âIâll call Mark and see whatâs going on.â
He quickly pulled out his phone and dialed, but no one picked up.
He tried calling Roger next, but the result was the same. âNeither of them is answering Could something have gone wrong?
The three exchanged heavy looks, their expressions growing grimmer by the second.
After a moment of tense silence, Sabrina pushed back her chair and stood, her movements sharp with frustration âIâm going to Turbo Impact to take a look. If necessary, Iâll step in and help.â
Richard immediately said, âContact the sponsors and bring them alongâ
Sabrinaâs lips curled into a cold smile âDonât worry, I know exactly what to do.â
The humiliation from yesterday was still fresh in her mind. Tomas had ruined her reputation in front of so many people. Did he really think Turbo Impact could from the ashes? The very idea was laughable.
And then there w was Shirley, who had always been luckder than her and Jessica. From the moment she was bom, she was dressed by Mr.
Ashford Seniorâs golden prophery, declared to have been born with a âtreasure troveâ and showered with boundless attection.
For so many years, her food, clothing, and expenses had always come from the Weiss family. Had she ever eamed a single penny on her own?
What did âbom with a treasure trove in her handâ even meaâ? She was nothing more than someone who couldnât even read a ledger. She was lucky, nothing more. She was simply fortunate to have been bom into the right family Didnât she boast in front of everyone yesterday about joining Turbo Impact and becoming the next Tristan Clarke?
If Turbo Impact collapsed, would the âlucky starâ tum into a âjiroâ?
It really was something to look forward to.
Ar this moment, Sabrina and the father son duo of Richard and Henry never imagined that after all their efforts and scheming, they had ended up working hard only to give the fruits of their Labor to someone else.
At Turbo Impact.
Tomas hung up the phone and turned to the driver, his eyes red with emotion. âWhat you just said... Can you really speak on behalf of Mr. Blackwood?â
His concem had never been about the money. It had always been about Turbo Impact, the dream he had shared with Tristan, the work of their entice lives. The driver nudded firmly, âI can. Our Mrs. Blackwood is standing right here, isnât she?â
Tears streamed down Tomasâ face as he turned to Shirley and held her hands tightly. His voice trembled with gratitude. âThank you. Thank you so much.â Shirley blinked, utterly speechless Why did she feel like she had just been sold off again?
At that moment, Mark noticed that the situation was talding a bad turn. He immediately signaled to Roger.
Roger caught the cue and stepped forward, raising his voice. âHow much longer are you going to drag this out? Do you think weâll wait forever? When is the payment coming?â
The crowd, tense with anger, erupted again, surging toward Shirley and Tomas, with Roger leading the charge
