Chapitre 115: Paying the Ransom ‎

William had no choice but to look at Aston pleadingly and beg, "Hey, I'll definitely pay the money back! Please give me a few days' grace. Once I get money from my wife, I will repay you immediately, okay?"

William remembered the chest of betrothal gifts that the Sawyers had sent them. Although the Sawyers later said that it was a mistake and that they weren't betrothal gifts but a thank-you gift for his loser son-in-law, Karen had never returned it to Lucas but instead secretly hid it somewhere.

When I go back, I have to force Karen to tell me where the money is hidden. Then I'll just siphon half of the cash to repay Aston Brooke.

"No, you must return it to me now. You've already stated on the IOU that you have to return the money by midnight today!" Aston insisted vehemently.
