Chapter 164
Helen frowned. “Who are you people?”
A bald man who was their leader replied, “Your creditors, of course. Are you Gina?”
“Gina’s my mother.”
Baldie nodded. “Then we’re at the right place. Your mom borrowed twenty million from Sindark Finance, claiming she could pay up in ten days.”
He even whipped out an agreement that had Gina’s signature on it, clear as day!
Helen was left utterly dumbfounded as she turned toward Gina. “Mom, what the heck?” Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“I–I thought… Didn’t we agree on ten days?” Gina stammered. “Why are you here already?”
“We’re counting from the day you made the loan,” Baldie growled coolly. “Not the next day.”
“C–Could you give me a day’s extension? I’ll have the money tomorrow…” Gina quickly said.
“Are you kidding me? An extension?! Paying up is what you’re supposed to do!” Baldie’s eyes narrowed–Gina was clearly not going to pay!
“Mom, when did you borrow twenty million dollars?” Helen quickly asked. “What did you use it for?”
It was not a small sum–she had never even heard Gina mention about taking a loan!
“Oh…” Gina kept her eyes lowered as she explained, “Greg was asking me for more money, and he said he’d pay me once his company goes public. I thought it was urgent, so I helped him by taking out a loan…”
“What?!” Helen could almost cough blood right then–that made it a total of forty million dollars!
‘Are you paying up or not?!” Baldie barked right then.
“Y–Yes, of course,” Gina quickly said. “I still have some shares–I can sell them for money. Just wait a moment.”
She quickly called her accountant and said, “Hello, Mr. Sheridan? Dump all the shares in my account– all of them.”
On the other end, Mr. Sheridan was completely baffled. “But you have no shares in your account, Ms. Zonda…”
“What? But I bought twenty million dollars worth of Tarmac Corp shares! My broker’s name is Greg Marsh. Please check again.”
Tarmac Corp was the company Greg founded, and she gave him the twenty million to buy those shares.
Nonetheless, Mr. Sheridan insisted, “I’m not lying, Ms. Zonda. There are no shares in your accounts, not even records of any transactions. You can come check the records yourself if you find it necessary.”
Gina blacked out and almost collapsed, but Helen quickly caught her. “Mom! Are you okay?!

What’s wrong?”
“It’s over. It’s all over…” Gina rasped feebly. “I’m broke.”

They could not reach Greg, and there were no shares in her account–it did not take a genius at this point to know that she had been swindled!
“What? Are you defaulting?” Baldie barked, rising to his feet.
His goons followed suit.
Helen sensed danger right then and quickly explained, “No, we’re not. We don’t have the money right now, but we can mortgage this manor…”
It was at least worth twenty million, and they had no choice but to mortgage it now.
“We only want cash.” Baldie snorted. “Pay up, or you’re coming with us…
“Coming with you?”
Baldie chuckled coolly. “You have a debt, so you could earn it at our strip club. You’ll be released once you make up for it.”
“Y–You bastards!” Helen snapped. “I have the money! This manor is worth twenty million!”
“That can wait until after you sell it for cash. You’re coming with us right now!” Baldie barked and grabbed Helen by the wrist to drag her outside.
“Let me go!”
