The Bound Between Us

Chapter 784

Alisa's hands were getting clammy as Jason stood at the door, carefully scanning the area. He turned to her and asked, "Did you see the guy my uncle mentioned?"

"I... I didn't see anyone," Alisa stuttered, unable to muster the courage to confess the truth.

She was in deep trouble, nearly drowning under a mountain of debt that had ballooned to almost ninety grand, with the interest alone becoming unbearable. She'd lost track of how much she'd borrowed. It all began with splurging on luxury items, then taking out a loan for cosmetic surgery to get those double eyelids she had always wanted. The beauty clinic had taken her for a ride, and then convinced her to take another loan for a membership card.

She thought Jason might find her more appealing if she had a figure like Monica's, so she splurged on a hundred yoga classes, sinking another hefty sum.

Now, Alisa was completely entangled in her debt, with calls coming in daily, either demanding repayments or offering more loans. She was trapped in a relentless cycle, robbing Peter to pay Paul, and if anyone, especially Jason, discovered her secret, it would all come crashing down.

After looking around, Jason didn't say much, just reassured them, "Uncle, Anastasia, let's leave it for now. I'll check into the identity of the suspicious guy and get back to you if I find anything."

Daniel replied, "Thanks, Jason. We appreciate it."
