Chapter 2172: The Man at His Wits' End
After speaking, she walked towards the door, opened it, and glanced back at him. "Leave! Don't come back again! My sister has made it very clear to you."
"Agnes..." Rupert couldn't believe his sister had this attitude as well. She seemed particularly disdainful of him. He frowned, "You..."
"Rupert, come out! I have to go to work!" Agnes urged him, her tone filled with impatience just like her sister's.
This made Rupert very unhappy and he instantly felt hopeless. He walked towards the door, saying without contention, "Agnes, you're still young. You should be helping to mend relationships, not break them." "But this is my sister's decision. I don't want to intervene."
After he left, Agnes stepped out as well and slammed the door shut. She didn't even wait for the elevator but headed straight for the stairwell, descending quickly.
She didn't want to share an elevator with him? Rupert felt even worse. He thought to himself, another bouquet of roses wasted!
The sisters treated him with such disdain! No one would be happy after being turned away so coldly.
Morning.
Spencer's car headed towards the set. The passenger seat was empty; Summer was not in his car.
Earlier, they had exited the elevator together, and his car was parked not far away. He had opened the passenger door and invited her in, but Summer had refused. Watching her walk straight to her own car, Spencer knew that Rupert had ruined her mood.
As he drove, Spencer occasionally glanced at the scenery passing by. Remembering the scene this morning when he saw Rupert knocking on Summer's door with a bouquet of roses made his face turn icy cold and left a bad taste in his mouth.
That guy was like a persistent leech!
Although Spencer hadn't yet thought of a perfect solution, he was sure Rupert wouldn't be able to keep this up for long. He would make Rupert admit everything in front of Summer.
Thinking about Rupert always brought a sense of anxiety and even hatred to Spencer's heart. But fortunately, Agnes had told him that Summer was already talking about breaking up with Rupert and was determined to do so. Spencer knew Summer well enough to understand that she never dragged things out.
This was his only solace...NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
After being kicked out by Agnes, Rupert sat in his car for a long time. The car belonged to his father. With one hand on the steering wheel and a sullen face, his eyes gleamed with a fierce light.
He couldn't afford to wait any longer; the pressure from creditors from all directions had pushed him to the brink of collapse.
His patience lasted no more than three minutes.
At that moment, his newly changed phone number received a call. Holding the phone, he was startled!
He hadn't even told his parents about this new number! Who could it be?
Moreover... he hadn't used his own ID to get this number; a friend had helped him with it.
The ringtone continued...
He answered the call nervously without saying a word.
"Rupert, you bastard! You changed your number!"
The voice on the other end cursed at him. "Do you think running back to Arkpool City will make those debts disappear? Let me tell you! No way!"
Rupert didn't dare hang up because he wasn't stupid. If they could find his new number, what else couldn't they find?
"Why don't you hang up?" The other person taunted him deliberately. "Rupert, aren't you quite capable?"
"Brother, don't be like this..." Rupert
felt panicked and tried to appease
him with a smile on his face. "I haven't forgotten about the money
you. How about this: I'll transfer $300,000 to you first. Send me your bank account number and
head
to the bank right away."
"Rupert, you'd better not play any tricks! If you had money, why make me chase after it!"
The other person lost patience as
wel
well. "If I can find your new number, I can also find all your parents' information. They're teachers? I have their photos and addresses!"
