Chapter 285

Judging by Arabella's self-complacent character, being a pampered sister, she probably would long for her four brothers to bonk her; seducing her foster father was the most unexpected thing to Miranda, which piqued her interest all of a sudden.

"That slut! I'll never spare her a dime! You are my one and only daughter."

She gazed at Miranda, her voice softened with a hint of ingratiation.

"So for the sake of us being family, can I ask you a favor?"

Miranda knew she was here for a reason. The four Hawke brothers had all tried to reach out to her, only to be met with her chastisement.

The Hawkes realized searching Miranda for help was equated with seeking humiliation, even getting lashed out at.

Her mother hadn't come for her once, and this time she did, which was apparently not just for obtaining forgiveness.

Miranda laughed coldly without replying. Seizing the opportunity, Mrs. Hawke urgently uttered, "I don't have any other option. Earlier, we've run into a bit of issues on the project, and owed a lot of money. If we don't pay it back, we'll be dragged to court. The family could go bankrupt then!"

"We've racked our brains to reach out for a solution these days, but no one's willing to lend a hand. I can only come to you," she said, her eyes tinged with imploration. "I know you're close with the Lancaster Group, the Everhart Group and the Ashcroft Group. Could you maybe put in a good word for us? Please, just one of them would be enough to save us."

Her words trailed off as she saw the cold indifference in Miranda's eyes.
