Chapter 52

A day had passed, and Jasmine spent the entire night in fear. When the sun rose, the Anders Residence kept getting visitors knocking at the main door.

“Open the door!”

“It is only right to pay up for what you owe! Stop hiding in the house.”

“Pay us back!”

The entire Anders Residence was jam-packed and surrounded by waves after waves of people. After the bankruptcy, the Anders were barely able to survive by selling their properties. With loan sharks coming over to their place, the Anders realized that it turned out to be Jasmine who had taken on usury with a steep interest rate.

“You’re such a disgrace to the family!” Angered, John slapped Jasmine forcefully. Upon feeling the searing pain on her cheek, she turned on the waterworks. Still, she couldn’t be bothered by it as she paid huge consequences to be able to take out a

loan.

Immediately, she kneeled with a loud thump. “Dad, help me! Please help me! I’ll be dead if you don’t!”

“I don’t have any money. Solve the problem that you created yourself!” Then, John rolled his sleeves and left in anger while Jasmine quickly ran after him before clinging onto his leg.

“Dad, I have no choice anymore. I took some pictures for them to be able to take out the loan…” When John heard Jasmine, he felt as if he was struck by lightning before he staggered a little. With complete shock, she stared at this daughter of his whom he had been spoiling ever since she was born.

“Jasmine, I really don’t know what to say to you anymore.” John was so furious he spat blood before he lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

“Dad… Dad!” Still, no matter how much Jasmine shouted, her father never answered. Although she dropped out of school, rumors about her were still being spread around the school without any signs of stopping.
