The Heiress Strikes Back


46 Asking Sonia for Help

Sharon’s brows were tightly furrowed. Her gaze was focused on June’s face, and she didn’t notice that her knuckles had already turned white from gripping too hard.

Astonishingly, June reacted even faster. After hearing Sharon’s words, she couldn’t help but curse. “What’s wrong with that mouth of yours? You’re not the only one who can speak! Do you want to embarrass us further by speaking so loudly?”

Seeing that Sharon didn’t refute her, June became even more imposing. “If you don’t make me angry, do you think I need to use such a method to vent my emotions? I feel so annoyed when a useless person like you appears in front of me. A person like you probably has never seen so much money before!”

Sharon-who was used to her sarcasm-sighed. I don’t know why June has called me here.

“Hey, June, who is this? Don’t tell me you found a beggar by the street to make up the numbers!”

“This lady’s clothes are all cheap goods. She can’t even compare to someone my age.”

“You guys don’t know that this is her daughter-in-law. How interesting-she is indeed as poor as the rumors say.”

It’s no wonder people said that only people with similar interests could play together. June’s friends were exactly the same as her-they were all snobbish people.

At this moment, June was very nervous. Looking at Sharon didn’t make her feel any better, so she said, “You guys can laugh now, but wait until I ask my son to divorce her. The next time we meet, I’ll bring a rich daughter-in-law to you all.”

At this moment, June no longer mentioned Crystal’s name. After all, everyone knew about what happened to Theo. If this matter wasn’t resolved, the York siblings would probably have a hard time.

She didn’t want Wallace and Crystal to get too close.

Sharon laughed in her heart. Rich daughter-in-law? Even if all the wealthy ladies in New York come together, they probably can’t compare to me.

June had no time to care about her daughter-in-law. The only purpose of her existence is to wait here. If I really can’t gather enough money, I will give her to the casino. Whether it is drawing her blood or taking out her organs, they can do whatever they want to her.

If I want to get the money back, I probably need someone capable to speak up for me. It’s a pity that Crystal can’t even protect herself now. Otherwise, I could still borrow some money from her. At this thought, June suddenly raised her head. How could I have forgotten?

Only then did June remember the young lady who greeted her at the family gathering last night.

At that time, the young lady fell in love with Wallace at first sight and would fawn over him from time to time. It was obvious that she was interested in Wallace.

After a while, two burly men with tattoos walked over.

June’s expression was dark, and she said to Sharon, “Just stand here and don’t move. I’ll go and raise the money immediately. Stay here obediently.”

She remembered that the young lady’s name was Sonia. Although she wasn’t from the York family, her family background was clean. All the inheritance from her family would be given to her.

If I call her over, there will definitely be a way out of this. At this thought, she rushed out to make a phone call. They had exchanged contact details yesterday, so it came in handy today.

The call went through very quickly.

June’s voice softened. “Hello? Is this Sonia? Haha, yes, I’m Wallace’s mother…”

Ever since Sonia saw Wallace at the banquet, she felt that there was a natural affinity between them. Thus, she quickly approached Wallace’s mother.

After all, regardless of whether the man liked her or not, everything would be fine after she left a good impression on his mother.

She was still thinking about how she could get close to Wallace when his mother came looking for her. From June’s tone, Sonia knew that she had something to ask of her, so what she needed to do was seize the opportunity. “Auntie, you sound a little out of breath. Did you run into some big trouble?”
