Chapter 625 Lawrence Passed Away

Amelia shut her eyes, feeling totally defeated. "I get it," she muttered.

After she hung up, tears splashed onto her phone screen.

She was completely lost.

Her family felt like a never-ending black hole.

"Something wrong?" Elijah asked.

Amelia took a deep breath and decided to call Nolan.

The kid was his, so she figured she'd ask Nolan for $100,000 and call it even.

The phone rang forever before a woman picked up, "Hello?"

Amelia's fingers froze, and she quickly hung up, panicking.

She didn't even know why she was scared.

It was only 7:40 AM, and a woman answered Nolan's phone. Anyone could guess they spent the night together.

Tears streamed down as Amelia called her old friends, hoping to borrow money.

But those friends from back then? Who would help her now?

She even tried Nathaniel, but his phone was with his assistant, and he wouldn't get back to her until late.

Amelia checked with the detention center and the hospital. The specialist consultation and surgery would take time, and missing the specialist wasn't an option.

"Can you help me get in touch with Nolan? Please, I'm begging you, help me borrow $100,000 from him," Amelia pleaded with Elijah, out of options.

Elijah looked conflicted. "Amelia, after what your dad did, if you want to borrow money to save him, Mr. Cunningham definitely won't agree."

Nolan would never help Lawrence.

Amelia lowered her eyes in despair, trying to get out of bed.

But as soon as she moved, pain shot through her whole body.
