Chapter 31 - Choose the Lesser Evil (1/2)
Luna regretted going to this place. If she had known that he would not help his own child, Luna would never dare to seek her father's help. Her fists clenched on both sides as she listened to her father's nonsensical reason.
”You dare to call yourself a man!” she blurted out, ”He's your own son. You will let him die just because you cannot release money to pay for his operation?”
”Have you forgotten that you were the one who chose to cut our relation? And now you dared to step on my house to ask for money?” Stephen Jiang slammed his hands on the table in front of him. ”Ungrateful child!”
He wouldn't admit it, but when this daughter of his left their company, they suffered a loss. She was one of the best managers they had, but she chose to leave them because of her animosity against her half-sister, Sienna. If only he knew what really happened between his daughters, he wouldn't let Luna suffer.
”Then take all your money and put it in your ȧss, you ȧsshole!” Luna exclaimed. She'd long forgotten that she still had a father. He never treated her or her mother right in the first place. Who did he think he was to treat her like trash?
Luna cursed the whole Jiang family in her heart. She'd tried her best not to nurture hate and revenge against them, but this was too much! Julian … her poor little brother was lying on his deathbed, and no one was willing to save him except for her.
Her eyes almost tinged with redness from the exhaustion that had already started to affect her senses. She was tired, but she needed to raise money for Julian's immediate operation. She then turned around to leave this nasty place. She shouldn't have come here.
Her tears ran down her cheeks as she opened the front door, oblivious to the pair of eyes that were watching her every move. Sienna's lip curled into a smile. Waiting for Luna to seek their father's help had been boring, but it was worth the wait.
”Sister, what brings you here?” Her voice made Luna stopped on her tracks and looked up only to see Sienna wearing a slim fitted red dress, making her way down the staircase. Her eyes darkened as she realized what this woman was up to.
”Sorry, Sienna. I have no time to waste right now.” Luna bit out.
Sienna sneered inwardly. Luna was still arrogant even in her desperate situation.
