Samuel shot her a cold laugh. “I had no choice. You didn’t want to help me pay anything, and they were rushing me for the money.
“I had no choice but to tell them my dear sister is the wife of a wealthy family. A bit of spare change from them was more than enough for me to pay off my debts.”
He continued, “This method worked wonders! Your in–laws are so generous. They helped me with half of what I owed in
a snap.
“Your husband is quite the character too. All I had to do was mention my brother–in–law is General Morrison of the Norvanian Military, and you would vouch for me. Then, everyone was willing to lend me any amount I desired.”
Samuel sounded ecstatic. “Your husband’s name really carries weight! No one dares to mess with me anymore. If they do, I’ll have my brother–in–law deal with them.”
Suzanne clenched her fists tightly. She was shaking with NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
rage.
Her face was steely as she warned him, “Samuel York, you
bastard. If you continue using Nathan’s name to scam people for money, I won’t let it slide.”
.ne at me, Samuel laughed condescendingly. “Don’t ju Suzanne. Dad also goes around telling his drinking buddies that his son–in–law is Nathan Morrison. He gloats about his daughter marrying into a
wealthy family.”
He continued, “But Mom is worse. She called your husband the other day and easily got herself a hundred thousand dollars. How generous of him.”
He basked in self–satisfaction on the other end of the
phone.
Meanwhile, Suzanne’s eyes were already bloodshot and brimming with tears from sheer fury.
This family was like parasites that lived in the sewers. All they did was latch on to others and leech off of them. You couldn’t shake them off even if you wanted to. How
disgusting.
“I’ve already divorced him,” Suzanne growled. “So please stop looking for him and stop causing trouble for the
Morrison family.”
Samuel scoffed. “What kind of joke is this? Divorce? Only a fool would believe you. You couldn’t run into a family like this in a million lifetimes. Why would you willingly let it go when you’re so materialistic?
“Save it, Suzanne. I know my limits. I won

for gambling anymore. Go ask your husband to arrange a position for me in the military. I want an office position…”
She couldn’t bear to listen anymore. She hung up on him and gradually shut her eyes while taking a deep breath. Her
chest felt so constricted.
Her head was aching from how angry she was. Her entire body was aching.
She couldn’t understand. What did she do to deserve such a family? It felt worse than death to be stuck with them.
She tossed her phone aside and dragged her exhausted body into the bathroom to wash up.
Half an hour later, Suzanne emerged from her room.
Sienna sat with her legs crossed in front of the coffee table. She had her glasses on and was furiously typing on her
computer.
“Morning, Sienna,” Suzanne greeted, approaching her lethargically. Then, she slumped listlessly on the sofa.
Sienna had her eyes glued to the computer screen as her fingers flew across the keyboard. She cast her a quick glance.
“Morning. Did you not sleep well yesterday ay do you look so worn out?” she asked.
Suzanne leaned her head against the sofa and shut her eyes. “I only fell asleep at the brink of dawn, and I was ticked off by a disgusting leech of a family.”
“Who?”
“Suzanne York’s parents and brother.”
“Aren’t those your parents and brother?” Sienna laughed.
“No,” she replied coldly.
Sienna quickly picked up on what was happening. “Oh, right. They’re not your biological family. Let me tell you, since I grew up with Suzanne. Her father is a real piece of work. You should be careful.”
“Careful of what?” she asked lightly.
Sienna stopped typing and slowly turned to look at her friend. She took off her glasses and had a grim expression. Her eyes were brimming with contempt as she said in a low voice, “He touched her when she was younger.”
Suzanne froze. An indescribable wave of disgust washed
over her.
