Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 691 Stop Lending Him Money

It was undeniable that Crosby was an incredible man and no one knew how he did it. Not only was he able to get Jayden released, but the debt collectors also said Jayden was not allowed to gamble in their territory anymore. In other words, they were indirectly banning him from gambling.

In a way, it was a happy ending.

When Jayden was freed, his face was covered with bruises, and his lips were swollen like sausages.

“Oh, my poor son. Why did they beat you up like that?” Ophelia cried out.

However, her cries only made Jayden’s head hurt.

“Mom, can you be quiet? My head hurts terribly, and I’m starving. Please make me something to eat.” Jayden said.

Ophelia said hurriedly, “Okay. Okay. I’ll go make you some food now.”

“Mom, I want to eat meat. I’m famished. Please put in lots of meat, okay?”

“Okay. Get some rest. I’ll make you some food now.” Ophelia answered.

When she left, Tiffany said, “Dad, why don’t you go and help Mom? I can take care of Jayden here.”

Reginald nodded.

The moment Reginald left the room, Tiffany’s face turned grim instantly.

Jayden shuddered and subconsciously avoided Tiffany’s gaze, which looked as if she was going to gobble him up.

“Jayden, don’t you have anything to say to me?” Tiffany questioned, crossing her arms across her chest.

Jayden blinked intensely, clearly feeling extremely guilty.

“Tiff, I didn’t do it on purpose. I just had the itch, and someone egged me on, saying he could help me win lots of money. I couldn’t control myself and entered the place again. But I promise this is the last time. If I gamble again, I’ll chop off both of my hands. I mean it,” Jayden promised, gulping.

“What’s the point of making promises when you never keep them?” Tiffany said frustratedly. “You’re going to be forty years old soon. How could you believe such stupid instigations? If money could be won so easily, then everyone would be gambling now. Are you brainless or just pure stupid? You could’ve worked hard to earn that money, but no, you just had to pick up bad habits like gambling. Are you trying to ruin our family?”

Jayden licked his lips and said awkwardly, “Tiff, I just couldn’t accept how things have turned out. I couldn’t believe that I would be so unlucky. So, I wanted to try gambling again, thinking maybe I could turn the situation around. I never expected that I’d end up with such a huge debt.”

Tiffany scoffed out loud.

“You never expected it? I bet even pigs are smarter than you.” She was too tired to scold him. “If it weren’t for Mr. Clinton, I’m sure your limbs would’ve been chopped off already. Mr. Clinton is a busy man. He can’t possibly rescue you every time. I’d advise you to start behaving yourself in the future. Don’t blame me for being a heartless sister if something actually happens next time.”

Jayden held his silence.
