First Love's Return, Heiress Strikes Back

Chapter 578

Chapter 578

That woman was Perla.

But she was very different from before.

In the past, whenever Mariela saw her, she was either in a lavish designer suit or an exquisite silk gown. She always had jewelry that matched her outfit, and her hair was carefully styled. She exuded the aura of a wealthy lady.

Yet this time she looked as plain as Gía had said.

Plain–faced, she looked haggard, with yellowish skin and dark circles under her eyes. Dressed in a simple light gray long–sleeved casual suit, she looked like an average middle–aged woman from an average family. There was not a trace of the grace she had once exuded as mistress of the Herman family.

It seemed that the Herman family was really having a hard time.

Even Perla, who had always cared for her appearance, had fallen into such a miserable state.

Mariela wore a smile.

She felt really satisfied.

She slowly walked toward Perla.

Perla saw her and at once strode up to her. She looked extremely excited and tried to grab Mariela’s arm but was pushed away by Haylee.

Perla looked at Mariela, no longer as arrogant as she used to be. At this moment, she pleaded with a humble face, Mariela, I beg you to save the Herman Group. Please help us. Isn’t the Logan family the richest family in New York? As long as you/invest and help us, I will do whatever you ask me to do!*

Mariela chuckled, “Did you just say you would do whatever I asked you to do?”

Perla nodded.“Yes. As long as I can do that, I promise you everything. Please help the Herman family. We are truly broke this time. My husband was admitted to the hospital for overwork, and Jay is now drinking heavily all day. Our family is falling apart and can’t hold on much longer.”

Mariela looked at Perla with a half smile and asked, “What can you do for me?”

Perla was stunned,

What could she do for Mariela?

Even she did not know it herself. She was simply desperate and promised everything without thinking it through.

Perla said, “I… Can you please help us for the sake of Jay? After all, you’ve been with him for three years,

and you used to be in love. Can you bear to see him depressed and desolate all day because of bankruptcy?”

Her mention of Jaime caused Mariela to burst into an angry laugh.
