Chapter 45
The Heiress Strikes Back
45 Gambling Debts Are Hard to Pay
Even after all the guests had left, Wallace still couldnât get over his confusion. I really donât understand what Iâve experienced tonight, and I donât want to probe further. The most important thing now is to find Sharon quickly. Itâs already so late, and the only place she would go to is the hospital to accompany Uncle Smith.
Upon recalling Sharonâs recent behavior, Wallace couldnât help but frown. She has really changed recently. My quiet little wife has been going out more and more often. Itâs as if she is doing many things that I donât know, and our recent interactions seem to be shrouded in fog.
In just one night, Wallaceâs name had spread throughout New York. Everyone knew that the Harris family had produced a genius who received the Sullivan Groupâs recognition.
In the future, the Harris family would be a rich family.
The next morning, Sharon woke up in Tommyâs car. The driver handed her a set of clean clothes.
âMs. Charlotte, where are we going now?â Like most people, the driver only knew that Sharonâs last name was âCharlotte.â He didnât know her full name.
âTo the hospital.â Sharon had just recovered a little when she received an unexpected call at the hospital entrance.
She didnât expect June to call her; this had never happened before.
Before Sharon could give a simple greeting, Juneâs voice rang out, sounding very anxious. âWhere are you, trash? Let me tell you, donât think that Iâm afraid for you just because you didnât come home last night. I wouldnât be worried even if someone like you ran away from home.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat do you want?â Sharonâs tone was very calm. If it were any other time, she wouldâve added a title. But after what happened yesterday, she suddenly understood that no matter how hard she tried, June wouldnât accept her.
âYou sure have become capable! Go to this address right now, or donât ever come home again.â June hung up after saying that, and Sharon received a location on her phone.
Sharon felt that it was really strange. The Harris familyâs members usually wouldnât find me for anything, so why did she suddenly change her attitude today and even call me?
Although Sharon was reluctant, they were still living under the same roof. She didnât want anything to happen to June, so she rushed to the address.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw a group of people surrounding June with fierce expressions.
The moment June saw her daughter-in-law, her face lit up. She hurriedly pulled Sharon into the small platform behind her.
âMom... why did you call me over?â Sharon felt a little strange, but she still followed June in.
Surprisingly, this seemingly ordinary place was actually an underground casino!
When they entered the casino, Juneâs expression completely changed. Her face was filled with anger as she shouted, âTrash Dixon, you only know how to use these novel methods to cheat money. If I had known earlier, I wouldâve gone to the York familyâs big casinos and cheated some money. However, I didnât know what you could do!â
Hearing her words, Sharon almost fainted. âHow can you participate in such gambling activities?â
June ignored her and walked to the side to whisper to the person-in-charge. When she returned, Sharon couldnât help but ask, âMom, how much do you owe?â
Just saying it made Sharon feel a headache coming on. She really didnât know what to do.
She could tell that June sounded a little nervous. âThis place is filled with all sorts of new and interesting games. Iâve never experienced them before, so in my excitement, I lost all my savings...â
Sharon opened her mouth, but when she came back to her senses, she couldnât help but shout, âHow can you use all your money to gamble? If the familyâs capital is completely exhausted at this time, what will we use to maintain our operations?â
