CHAPTER 156

Langdon and David left without even meeting Jacob who was now surrounded by Mike and men whom he owed money.

Ninety-five percent of the 200 million he received vanished from his account in a matter of minutes because he had to also pay the interest. Mike alone received 18 million out of that.

Jacob needed the rest of the money and more for the post-production of his movies. He tried calling his wife and asking her on the phone to send him some money, but she hung up. He looked at her who was standing at the foyer, together with the family. She looked back at him, and no love was exchanged between their gazes; if anything, there was silent anger, frustration, and hatred.

Ryan noticed what was going on. “Housekeeping is like playing chess. If you aren’t careful with your pieces, you will lose them to the opposition that is the world. Did this housekeeper lose only his queen, or others, too?” he pondered for a little while. “If I don’t do something, this little pack will disband.”

Ryan slowly went over to where Selena and her family were. Elizabeth was also there, but she was standing a few feet away from them with her parents. What angered Elizabeth was that her brother was also standing next to her children, sucking up to her mother-in-law.

Selena came forward and met Ryan so she could talk privately with him. “Can you give us a week so we can find a good place to shift to?”

Ryan briefly glanced at the children: Lisa, Roshan, Vlad and Mercie. He slowly blinked and nodded.

“Thanks,” Selena’s heartbeat steadied now. She had expected him to agree because she was a big celebrity, but she still had to confirm to feel at ease.

It will be too heavy for you.” “No, I can carry it,” Mercie tried to pull the staff out of his hand, but she failed, and it greatly surprised the little girl. After trying a little longer, she gave up. “old man,” she was out of breath, “you’re surprisingly strong.” “Hoho,” Ryan stroked his beard. “I can say the same for you, little one.” George shook
