Chapter 224 Owes Us a Loan!
In the afternoon, a piece of news was rapidly spreading on various social networks in Houston. It was about Sarah’s private photo incident that had caused quite a sensation some time ago.
The truth of the incident was someone deliberately fabricated and framed Sarah in those photos and had paid people to spread malicious rumors online.
The mastermind behind the scenes had been arrested by the public security authorities, and their real identity is Su Moumou.
According to the regulations on internet security, Su Moumou and those involved in the production and dissemination of the photos would be fined and given a half-month administrative detention as punishment!
The Houston police also issued a warning to netizens, urging them to promptly delete and stop spreading these photos., Otherwise, they would take legal actions!
The news sparked widespread discussion, particularly regarding the mastermind behind the scenes, which became a hot topic of debate.
[I received information from a friend about the true identity of the mastermind behind the scenes. It turns out it was Andy from the Johnson family! He's actually Sarah's cousin!]
[Wow, I can't believe this! So you're saying Andy is a bad person! He even plotted against his own cousin. What a bastard!]
[Ha ha! More than just a bastardt! In my opinion, not many members of the Johnson family are good people. Haven't we all seen the news this morning? The Platan Heights villa relocation banquet was all a plot by the Johnson family. They have no shame!]
[Sigh! I recently wrongly accused and scolded Sarah Johnson online, but now I need to apologize! I'm sorry!]
[I'm sorry, too!]
[Society is becoming more and more unfriendly toward women! What's Andy's microblog? Let's all go and curse him!]
Normally, rumors in the online world didn't create much of a stir!
However, it's different this time.
On one hand, it involveed the Johnson family, which had been hotly discussed these days, so it generates a lot of attention.
On the other hand, Ryder had George use his financial power to add fuel to the fire in the online world!
With the turn of events, the outcome naturally became obvious...
Meanwhile, at SR Group!
Sarah, sitting in her office, browsed through the online news with excitement!
Just a few days ago, she had even contemplated suicide because of this incident.
She never expected to be vindicated so quickly in just a few short days!
"He must be the one who made it happen!"
Sarah murmured softly with a flicker of happiness in her eyes.
However, she was still somewhat surprised when she found out that Andy was the mastermind behind it all!
After all, they were cousins, and yet he stooped to such vulgar tactics!
There was another thing she was almost certain of at the same time!
The person who planted the virus on her computer was most likely her own parents!
Everything was just as Ryder had said!
‘I really don't know why I ended up with parents like this...’ thought Sarah
Sarah sighed helplessly but didn't dwell on it anymore!
After all, she had cut off all ties with Karen, her mother, and they would never have any contact again...
At Ernest Johnson's house in the Bay of Paris community!
Ernest, an American expert in Chinese-English translation and a bestselling American novelist, sighed with relief as he put down the remote control in front of the TV and said, "Thank goodness! His daughter's situation has finally turned around, so he won't have to bear that dirty reputation anymore!"
Sitting beside him, Karen coldly retorted, "You have no idea! If this matter is exposed, it means we are not safe either. What if Andy, the coward, confesses everything at the police station? Are we both going to jail?"
Ernest shrunk his neck and didn't dare to say a word!
Karen continued to complain, "Just thinking about this makes my blood boil! Your mother, that old hag, promised us that she would attend the housewarming banquet. But what happened? We attended the banquet, gave a gift of 200,000 dollars. Not only did we not eat anything, but we were also kicked out in front of so many people and finally made it to the news. I'm ashamed, the more I think about it, the more I feel like I've been deceived!"
Ernest tried to console her, "Who could have predicted such an unexpected event! Let the past be the past. After all, we are still alright. It's your mother who suffered the most losses!"
Karen stared at Ernest with widened eyes and yelled, "How dare you, you stupid fool! Haven't we suffered enough losses? One million dollars for the car damage and 200,000 dollars for the gift that wasn't returned! A total of 1.2 million dollars! It's easy for you to say. If you can, fill the 1.2 million dollars hole right now! I'm done with this!"
"This...this is too difficult!" Ernest Johnson looked helpless.
He thought, ‘It is your brother who caused the car accident, and you were the one who gave the money like a show-off! In the end, it all fell on me to bear! It is just too unfair!’
Of course, Ernest had gotten used to all of this and could only remain silent!
"A useless good-for-nothing!" Karen rolled her eyes and continued to ask Ernest, "Think quickly. How can we make up for this money? Don't tell me we have to sell the house to buy a car!"
Ernest muttered in a low voice, "In my opinion, the first thing you should do is to get back the money borrowed from Xuemin. It's over 300,000 dollars, which might not cover the hole, but it will help in this desperate situation!"
however, Karen directly gave him a disgusted look and said, "No! There is no reason to demand repayment immediately after lending money. Besides, the money was lent to Xuemin. He will start complaining in his hometown if we ask for it back. Would I be embarrassed? Should I throw away the good reputation I built up over the years in my hometown?"
Ernest's lips twitched slightly. He hesitated but ultimately didn't say a word!
Knock, knock!
Someone knocked on the door at the point!
"Who is it?"
Karen impatiently shouted and walked over to open the door.
There were two people standing at the door, a man and a woman.
Karen recognized the man, who was the driver of the Rolls-Royce that had been hit yesterday.
The driver smiled and greeted Karen, "Hello, Mrs. Liu. Let me introduce the person next to me, the manager of our wedding company. We came to discuss the compensation payment with you today. The compensation is one million dollars. I believe you are ready, aren’t yout?"
"Well..." Karen stood at the door, stunned.
Yesterday, she had fought hard to negotiate a one-day extension for the compensation payment, but she didn't expect time to fly by so quickly.
However, it was one million dollars in cash! How could she come up with that?
Three rough-looking men walked up the stairs at that moment.
The leader, a bald man, asked, "Are you Karen?"
Karen instinctively nodded, "Yes, I am!"
"Kyle is your son, isn’t he?"
"Yes! What's the matter?"
The bald man frowned and coldly replied, "Your son owes our company two million dollars in loans! He asked us to collect the money from you, so pay up quickly!"
