Chapter 981:

“How much do you pay my daughter each month, if you don’t mind me asking?”

Meanwhile, Mindy couldn’t stop staring at Allison’s clothes. She reached out, eager to touch the fabric.

“Wow, your outfit is stunning. It must’ve cost a fortune, right?” she said.

Before her hand could make contact, a sharp flash of cold steel flew through the air.

Thud!

The dagger slammed into the table, barely missing her fingers by a hair.

If it had been just a little closer, it would’ve sliced through her fingers.

“What… what’s going on?” Mindy jerked her hand away, stumbling back in shock.

Even Troy jumped, instinctively pulling her into his arms. “Let’s calm down! No need to get violent!”

Years of avoiding debt collectors had taught them one thing: someone like Allison couldn’t be messed with.

The dagger still had stains of blood on it, the blade untouched by a cloth.

Allison didn’t waste time. “Who did you borrow your high-interest loans from?”

Troy recoiled, his face showing clear signs of guilt.

“We… We didn’t take any high-interest loans. You’ve got the wrong people,” he mumbled, unable to meet her eyes.

Kellan shot him a cold, hard look.

“You sold your daughter for four hundred thousand. We’ve got the proof. Want me to call the police and let them handle it?” he said, his voice sharp.

Allison yanked the dagger from the table. “If you don’t come clean, I can’t guarantee what will happen next,” she warned.

Troy swallowed nervously, shaking with fear.

“She’s your employee. Isn’t it your responsibility to protect her?” he stammered.

Mindy tried to play the victim. “We’re just regular people! How could we ever take on those loan sharks?” she pleaded.

Allison gave a mocking smile. She wasn’t falling for it.

“Tell me which platform you used and how the loan was set up,” she demanded.

The dagger in her hand sparkled ominously.

It was only then that the couple realized they had made a grave mistake in crossing the wrong person.

“Please don’t hurt us! I’ll tell you everything!” Mindy begged. She quickly pulled out a business card, showing a beauty salon’s address and phone number.

“I was just passing by when they invited me in. They promised all kinds of services and said I could borrow a huge sum of money. They even told me if I brought in new clients, I’d only have to repay half of it,” she explained, her voice bitter as she recalled it. “Later, I found out it was all illegal and tied to Shadow Nine.”

Faking outrage, Troy slapped her. “You fool! If it weren’t for you, how would our daughter have ended up with those collectors?”
