Regal Guard of Dragon -
Chapter 334 The Trick of Stefan and Eveline
Beneath the weak appearance lay a terrifying edge.
Finn squinted at the man. There was no doubt that this old and grayman was one of Grant's brothers in arms. His name was Hinds.
When Finn was looking at Hinds, the latter was doing the same thing.However, there was confusion when Hinds turned his eyes on Finn."Who are you?"
"Uncle Hinds, I am Finn." Smiling slightly, Finn felt that Hinds seemednot to be as outrageous as his wife.
"You are Finn?" With a smile on his face at once, Hinds continued toask, "you are Grant's son-in-law, right?”
"Come on up! Come on! Eveline, take Finn up!" Hinds was so hospitablethat his family members here were all puzzled.
"Hinds, this bastard teased me! How can you...?" With grievance on herface, Eveline wanted to continue blaming on what Finn had done. ButHinds interrupted her immediately,’ shut up!"
"Finn just came here from City C. He was not familiar with everythinghere. Why would he tease you? ...Cough.” Hinds seemed to be riled. Hecouldn't help coughing when he was still talking. As a result, his faceflushed.
Seeing that, Eveline was shocked, saying, "Hinds, don't be angry. I'll askhim to come in right now!"
Turning her eyes on Finn, Eveline became rude again, saying, "Comeon! Why do you still not move?"
Squinting at her, Finn followed her without any words.
But Hinds had already come down, and he waved to Finn with a smile,saying, "Finn, come and sit down! come on!"
Finn smiled gently, replying, "Uncle Hinds. There is still amisunderstanding between your family and me. I am not going to sitdown."
"Misunderstanding? Which one?" Hinds raised his head and gazed atFinn with a puzzle.
But Hinds only found that Finn shut his mouth and didn't mean to talk.Getting some information from Finn's words, Hinds turned his eyes onEveline and Stefan. At once, he noticed that both of them wereawkward.
"Eveline!" Hinds said in disappointment.
Being completely resolute, Eveline repeated what Stefan had said tocontinue discrediting Finn.
Eveline expected Hinds to glare at Finn when hearing what she hadsaid. Instead, Hinds became much angrier. What's more, the source ofhis anger was exactly Stefan and her.
Eveline was extremely terrified, saying, "Hinds..."
"I gave you 300,000 yuan, but you only gave 100,000 yuan to Finn!"Hinds looked at Eveline coldly.
"300,000 yuan?" Stefan shouted surprisedly. When Eveline asked him toredeem that jade, she told him that Hinds had only given her 100,000yuan. As a result, he could only pay Finn 100,000 yuan at most for thatjade.
But now...
300,000 yuan? There was some confusion in Finn's eyes. What a funfamily! One is bolder than the other!
At first, Finn thought that it was quite greedy of Stefan to embezzle hisdeserving 100,000 yuan. But out of his imagination, Eveline was muchmore greedy that she had even embezzled 200,000 yuan.
Seeing Eveline lower her head without any words, Hinds shoutedfuriously, "Tell me the truth!"
"what should... should I tell you?" Getting extremely angry at once,Eveline raised her head and replied aggressively, "I indeed just gave100,000 yuan to this bumpkin! So what?"
"Previously, Grant only lent 100,000 yuan to you, right?"
"Therefore, it is quite reasonable for us to pay the same amount back!""Shut up!" Hinds blurted, stopping Eveline from talking.
"Eveline, bills are not calculated in this way!"
"First, Grant lent that 100,000 yuan to me ten years ago. You must knowwhat it means!"
"Second, I would have never weathered the trouble in my business ifGrant didn't lend me that 100,000 yuan. Moreover, our affluent familywould never exist!"
"Therefore, not to mention the 300,000 yuan, that even I paid 3,000,000yuan back was something that I should give to him. He deserves it!"Hinds said convincingly. What Hinds said was so reasonable thatEveline could not make any rebuttals.
Lowering their heads, Stefan and Sonya felt guilty because their fatherhad told them the story of their family more than once.
A dozen years ago, Hinds retired from the army and started hisbusiness with Grant. However, they lost all their capital due to the lackof relevant experience.
Completely discouraged, Grant returned to City C.
While Hinds was unwilling to give up and decided to go on hisbusiness. Back then, however, he was so poor that he even could nottake out 100 yuan.
As a result, he had to ask Grant for help shamelessly. At first, he justintended to borrow one or two thousand yuan from Grant. But Grantwas so nice to friend that he took great efforts to pool 100,000 yuan forHinds.
Getting the money from Grant, Hinds was moved and appreciated thathe swore to pay it back hundreds of times as much as the money heborrowed from Hinds. To remind himself, he even gave the heirloom toGrant as a pledge.
In a blink of eyes, ten years had passed.
Over the past ten years, Hinds's commercial company had grownstronger! At the same time, he became much busier. Hinds had plannedto visit City C to redeem the heirloom by himself many times butdelayed by many affairs.
Nowadays, Hinds got some time, but unfortunately, he came down witha serious disease.
Hearing that Finn would come to City Z, Hinds had planned to pick upFinn on his own. But Eveline stopped him and told him that she wouldask Stefan to return the money to Finn.
Hinds adopted Eveline's advice, but he could have never imagined thathis wife would play such a trick.
"Stefan!"
The august voice of Hinds appeared again. Trembling a little, Stefanreplied dejectedly, "Daddy..."
"Tell me honestly, what did you do?"
Raising his head, Stefan had intended not to tell the truth. Surroundedby his father's noble eyes, he felt that he had been disclosed. Then hehad to open his mouth, "Daddy, there may be some misunderstandingbetween Finn and me."
"Misunderstanding?" Hinds replied coldly, "what's yourmisunderstanding?”
"Thud!" Stefan bent his knees on the floor and said in tears, "Daddy, I'msorry.”
"I have no choice. I didn't want to cheat you and mommy. I lost a lot ofmoney in the casino, and they threatened, if I don't pay it back, they willcut my legs..."
"so how much money did you give to Finn?" Hinds took a deep breathand felt some darkness in his eyes. He hadn't expected that his wife andson would do such a dirty trick without telling him.
"One... one thousand yuan," Stefan replied gently.
"Snapped!"
Hinds raised his hand and slapped his son
"Asshole! Asshole!" Hinds's complexion became pale with anger.
