Chapter 66

The news of Baron being thrown into jail spread across the Riverside Pack fast. Soon everyone knew about it.

And that included the Diaz.

Hellen was in the dining room having lunch with Paul when the news broke. She got so mad that she poured a whole pot of hot tea onto the maid’s face and smashed the pot against the wall afterward.

“What are we going to do?!” Hellen screamed at Paul, “We spent 20 thousand on Baron so that Owen could get that job. It hasn’t been a whole week yet and Baron is in jail now? We are basically throwing away cash!”

Paul was frustrated as well.

The Minister of Finance was on his back every single day pushing him to pay back the missing tax. It was a hell lot of pressure.

Yet the Diaz didn’t have much money left. Their lavish lifestyle drained their pocket. They wouldn’t have that 20 thousand to bribe Baron if Paul didn’t sell a few of his diamond watches.

All their hope was on Owen now–hoping that he could have a say in the pack business by cozying up Baron.

But now, their only leverage was gone!

“I knew this was a terrible idea!” Paul couldn’t help but complain, “We should never bribe Baron! I even sold my watch for this-”

“The entire family is going down and you are worried about your stupid watch?!” Hellen screamed at the top of her lungs, her face going red. “And you were the first one to jump on board when Owen came up with that idea, you dumbass!”

“Stop yelling at me you crazy woman-

Hellen grabbed the tablecloth and pulled, sweeping everything on the table to the floor, “I will yell if I want to! I said we shouldn’t give up on Harper! But you cold–blooded monster said Harper was finished! And now what–not only your daughter but your son was also finished!”

“ENOUGH!!” Paul clenched his chest and shouted, spitting all over the place. “I WILL F**KING strangle you if you yell at me again. I f**king swear!!!”

The couple slumped down on the mess, and both breathed heavily.
