Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 689 Save Your Brother

When Ophelia spotted Tiffany, she clung to her tightly, as if she was her only lifeline. Ophelia wailed, “Tiff, you’ve got to save your brother this time. He went to borrow from the loan shark and is now drowning in debt! Those gangsters are hunting him relentlessly. Your dad and I tried to break up the fight, but they beat us up too!

They even kidnapped your brother and his son and gave us ten days to pay back the debt. Otherwise, they’ll chop off your brother’s limbs! Left with no choice, we could only look for you. You can’t just stand by idly without doing anything!”

Tiffany’s hands shook in fury.

“Didn’t I return his debt already? Why did he borrow from the loan sharks again? Is he trying to force me to an early grave?” roared Tiffany. “Mom, I told you. It’s not that I don’t want to help him but he has gone overboard! He treats me like an ATM machine. I can help him once or twice, but he can’t possibly keep asking me for charity, right? Although Derrick is rich, his money doesn’t appear out of thin air. If my brother keeps borrowing money from loan sharks, I can only cut off all ties with him. I don’t want a brother who’ll always sabotage his sister.”

Ophelia paled. Although she knew that her son had gone overboard, he was still her child—she could not just leave him to die.

She pleaded through tears, “Tiff, help your brother one last time. He wasn’t like this in the past. Perhaps, the failure of his business traumatized him too much. Just help him out one more time. When I go back, I’ll give him a harsh scolding.”

Although Tiffany was furious, it was impossible for her to ignore her family like that and refuse to help.

Walking over, Amelia said, “Tiff, let’s talk calmly. They’re still injured. I wanted to send them to the hospital first, but they insisted on waiting for you here.”

Only then did Tiffany remember that her parents were still injured. Her anger dissipated slightly as she helped Ophelia sit down.

Derrick asked softly, “Mom, can you tell me why Spencer went to borrow from the loan sharks again? I remember Tiff mentioning that he never gambled in the past before he attended our wedding. However, not only did he learn how to gamble, but he’s also borrowing from loan sharks. I think that someone had deliberately lured Spencer to gamble.”

He could not possibly gamble for no good reason. It was possible that someone had dragged him there to sabotage him. Either that or someone wanted to take revenge on him by making him addicted to gambling. Drowning in debt and with a broken family, Spencer would be ruined.

Ophelia widened her eyes in disbelief. “Which b*stard would be so immoral? Why would they be so keen on ruining his life and breaking his family apart?”
