Chapter 238

Selene was the first to get the news and rushed to the hospital.

At that time, Lorelai had already been sent there.

Some other people who wanted her to pay their debts were also there.

Genevieve also arrived and heard the people shouting.

One shouted, “Pay back our money!”

Another repeated, “Pay back our money!”

Someone else said, “If you don’t pay us back, you will die even after coming out of the emergency room!”

The employees of Quinn Group were there as well.

Selene was shouting while those people surrounded her. She did not look as if she was put at a disadvantage.

“I dare you to touch me. I’ll play dead. Don’t you know it’s illegal for loan sharks to lend money? I’ll call the

police. Do you think that you’re the only one with connections? I have my own connections as well! What’s the

matter? I dare you to barge in. Are you bandits?” she scolded them loudly. Even at this time, she did not back

down.

Scarlett was hiding at the side with a gloomy expression.

Meanwhile, Aiden wanted to help Selene but was stopped by Scarlett.

“Don’t go there. Fortunately, you two are only engaged. We lost a lot of money because of her family. We still respect them, which is why we didn’t ask them for the money. Are you planning to pay the debts for them?” she asked.

Aiden hesitated slightly.

Genevieve arrived just in time to hear what they were saying.

Both Scarlett and Aiden were stunned.

Then, Genevieve glanced at them and snorted coldly. “Don’t worry. It’s not the end of the Quinn family. I will pay the money they owe you for Selene,” she said.

She looked at Aiden coldly, thinking, ‘I thought Aiden had become mature after Cecilia’s incident. But I didn’t expect him to be a coward and selfish man. When Lorelai had money, they wanted him to get engaged with Selene. But now, he just stood by and did nothing!‘

Jasper’s clothes wrinkled as he pushed his way through the crowd to make way for Genevieve.

Selene saw Genevieve, and the former’s eyes reddened, but she did not cry.

“Why are you here?” she asked.

Genevieve smiled and said, “I came to see Mrs. Quinn.”

She said to the men, “I’ve called the police. If anything happens to Mrs. Quinn because of you, I won’t let any of you leave.”

One said, “Are you threatening us? We’re here to collect the debt and will leave after you pay the money!”

Another said, “That’s right. She jumped off the building because she couldn’t pay back the money. We don’t want to follow in her footsteps. Just ask her to pay us back!”

They were shouting aggressively.

Because they looked fierce, Genevieve knew they were loan sharks.

She pondered for a second, then said with a smile, “It’s natural to repay the debt. Selene and I are close, so I will pay for her. How about you give my assistant your IOUS?”

She looked at Jasper, who immediately nodded.

Meanwhile, the men looked at each other in disbelief.

Jasper took out the checkbook solemnly.

“Ms. Lawrence has the money. Give us your IOUS, and we will pay you,” he said.

Selene grabbed Genevieve’s arm and said, “Don’t…”

Genevieve patted her on the arm and smiled.

One of them took out his IOU and said, “She owes me 400 thousand dollars.”

Selene glanced at it and said, “This is not signed by my mother!”

“How dare you deny it?” the man said, staring at her fiercely.

Genevieve grabbed Selene’s arm and looked at Jasper.

“We’ll pay it. Let’s resolve this peacefully,” Jasper said.

The man sneered, “That young lady is much more generous. I’ll let you off easily this time.”

Seeing this, the others took out the IOUS they had prepared in advance.

They said, “Take ours as well…”

It was chaotic for a moment.

Jasper took the IOUS and even took photos of them.

After that, he held the IOUS in his hand and said with a smile, “We already called the police before we came here. I have all the evidence with me. We’ll pay back the money after the police confirm that you’re not criminals.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s expression changed instantly.

One said, “Damn it! How dare you fool us!”

Another said, “Bitch, how dare you lie to me!”

The crowd was so angry that they wanted to beat Selene and Genevieve.

Genevieve grabbed Selene and took a step back. Then, the former looked at the men coldly.

The next second, a police siren sounded outside.

All of a sudden, the men panicked. They looked terrified.

After all, every one of them was a crook.

Putting aside the fact that they might not get the money now, they would be sent to jail if they stayed there.

Someone shouted, “Run…”

Then, all of them turned around and ran outside until there was no one left.

Selene suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed Genevieve’s arm tightly, and smiled miserably. “You’re so smart!” she said.

Genevieve smiled but did not say anything. Seeing Scarlett and Aiden coming over, Selene looked gloomy.

Scarlett did not want to curry favor with Selene anymore.

Thus, she said, “Selene, your mother’s health is the most important thing now. Quinn Group will go bankrupt soon. Why not let Aiden help you? After all, you’re just a girl and don’t know anything.”

Genevieve frowned slightly and chuckled before saying, “You planned to call off the engagement. So, who are you to help her?”

Selene seemed to have expected it and did not even look at them. “Don’t bother,” she said.

Scarlett was rendered speechless. She was very dissatisfied with Selene’s attitude, but she did not mind it as the engagement would be canceled soon.

“In that case, let’s discuss calling off the engagement after you deal with the bankruptcy. But, Selene, you can’t even afford your mother’s medical fee now. You should think of a plan soon. We won’t ask you to pay back the money now, but it doesn’t mean that you don’t have to pay us back at all,” Scarlett said harshly and bluntly.

Aiden frowned slightly. He said, “Mom, why did you mention it?”

Scarlett answered, “Because we should prepare in advance! Originally, you didn’t have any feelings for each other. You were forced to be together because of the benefits. Now that it’s gone, we should go our separate

ways.”

Selene’s eynmecian darkened.

She looked away after she spoke.

Scarlett wanted to say something more, but when she saw Genevieve’s gaze, her heart skipped a beat, and she did not continue.

“Fine. We’ll leave now,” she said before turning to leave.

Aiden looked at Selene and hesitated. Finally, he took out a card and gave it to Selene before leaving.

Selene threw it directly to the ground in disgust.

Genevieve chuckled as she picked it up. “It’s a supplementary card with no limit. Does he like you, Selene?” she

asked.
