CHAPTER 1909 HELP OUT
Meanwhile, inside a standard suite at Crescent Valley Hotel, Grant and Winnie were busy answering phone calls and replying to text messages.
Due to bankruptcy and hiding from debts, Grant was blacklisted and had to follow certain restrictions.
Initially, he couldn't even enter such a high-end hotel.
Fortunately, the hotel was owned by his son-in-law, so he didn't need to do registration.
Of course, that was also because his creditors gave him a chance.
With his current abilities, he could never repay the debts amounting to tens of millions in his lifetime.
Hence, after hearing that his daughter was about to get married with the CEO of Farwell Group, the creditors allowed him more time to figure out how to get the money.
Many even started to treat him more politely. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
After all, if Grant could become in-laws with the Farwell family, he would be guaranteed a lifetime of wealth and prosperity.
Winnie's relatives also kept congratulating her, as if their social status had also upgraded with Roxanne's marriage with Lucian.
“That goes without saying. The Farwell family's hospitality is superb. They even arranged accommodation for us to stay in a five-star hotel. Don't worry. The few million I owe you is really just an insignificant amount now. I've always said that I, Grant Jarvis, will make a comeback one day!”
“Yes, yes. That's right, dear cousin. Quit congratulating us. I heard your daughter also married a rich guy. Still, she can't compare with Roxanne. It can't be helped. Perhaps this is fate.”
“Okay. Let's talk another time. We still need to prepare for the wedding tomorrow. Our son-in-law will be here soon. We're swamped at the moment.”
Dealing with the various phone calls, the couple lied without feeling the slightest hint of embarrassment.
When the streams of incoming call and text messages finally stopped, Grant and Winnie grinned from ear to ear.
“Grant, I heard Roxanne founded that Flora Verba Group herself. It seems like even if the Farwell family doesn't shower us with benefits, Roxanne should still help to support our family, right?”
Winnie was genuinely surprised to learn such useful information through conversations with her relatives.
“Really? Are you talking about Flora Verba Group that's worth billions?” Grant became excited at once.
Initially, he was worried about not being able to get any money from the Farwell family after taking in Elias and Sonya's cold demeanors.
However, after hearing that her daughter owned such a large corporation, he was instantly overjoyed. A company worth billions! No matter how few shares Roxanne owns, the money would still be more than enough for us to spend for a lifetime. The tens of millions I owe is nothing more than a trivial matter now.
“That's right. It really is Flora Verba Group. Not only that, but Roxanne also seems to own a research institute, a hospital, and a pharmaceutical company. I didn't expect her to be so successful! The Jarvis family will be considered a prestigious family from now on.”
Winnie's long-held dream of becoming a wealthy lady might finally come true.
It wasn't that she was particularly committed to Grant that she stayed by his side all those years, but the man had never dared to lower her living standards. Hence, even though they were hiding from debts, she didn't suffer too much either.
Nevertheless, being on the blacklisted as an insolvent person had somewhat affected their children.
Their son, Yosef, managed to score well in the university entrance exam but couldn't go to a good school. Consequently, he left Horington and cut ties with them after graduation.
Their daughter, Yuliana, was affected even more. She secured a position in a big company but was immediately fired because of Grant's situation. As a result, she could only work as a tour guide at South East Aploth and seldom returned to visit them.
Therefore, Grant and Winnie now pinned all their hopes on their eldest daughter, Roxanne.
Deep down, Winnie knew she didn't have much of an emotional bond with Roxanne.
Nevertheless, they were still nominally a family. No matter what, Winnie figured Roxanne should help out the family to some extent since the latter was loaded now.
