Female NovelChapter 949
Helen suddenly thought to herself how great it would be if Vicky was there with them.
Kat certainly would not strut with Vicky around-not many had the honor of getting one over Vicky whenit came to verbal fencing.
If anything, Vicky would have tamed the child in no time at all, and Helen was a lot less smart that way-unable to riposte the brat's witty remarks, all she had was Nash's profuse apologies.
Naturally, she would not stoop to getting petty with a child either.
Just then, Frank led Gina and Cindy in through the door.novelbin
Helen hurried to them, exclaiming, "Are you alright, Mom?"
Gina was her mother after all, and she would be lying if she said she was not worried.
She glanced at Frank gratefully too, seeing that he had brought Gina back in one piece.
"Hmph. Alright?" Gina snorted, already thinking of a script on the way back, shooting Frank a look andgrumbling, "They took all our money!"
"What?" Helen did a double take and pressed urgently, "But the money is from the Southstream Lanes!It's for Granduncle's mansion! If the money's been stolen, what are we going to do-’
"Oh, it's just two billion!" Gina snapped. "What, is money more important than me? Am I not worth twobillion?!"
"That's not what I mean..." Helen sighed miserably.
"What? You lost the money Grandpa gave you?" A shrill voice shouted from upstairs, and Luna sooncame running down.
She certainly looked haughty especially when she saw the awkward look on Gina's face, and Cindywho was afraid to look anyone in the eye.
"You're all so incompetent!" Luna laughed. "I may have gotten scammed, but it's you who ended uplosing Grandpa's money, not me! Well, who's laughing now? Let's see what you're going to tellGrandpa when we get back ... He just might get so upset that he'll banish you people from our family!Hahaha!"
Luna's glee certainly left Gina anxious. "Helen, we could just sell Lane Holdings. We can't afford toupset the Southstream Lanes. What if they banish US?"
"But if we sell Lane Holdings, the investment Frank and I made before would all go up in smoke..."
Helen was left at a dilemma, but two billion was no small sum.
Kat shrugged just then. "Ah, what a bunch of mooks. In the end, you all have to depend on MasterLawrence."
"Don't run your mouth, Kat!" Nash snapped anxiously.
"It's the truth!" Kat retorted, clicking her tongue while pointing at Gina." Granny over there is Helen'smother, right? Helen trusted her with the money, but she ended up being kidnapped and losing hermoney. What else can be said? I'd kill myself already if I were her."
"What was that?!" Gina wheeled on Kat, incensed. "What hole did you crawl out of?! You watch yourmouth!" "Oh, I'm so sorry." Nash hurried over to apologize. "Children can be really ignorant..."
