The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 1178

"Oh? Helen, you're here!" Cindy exclaimed as she strode in Gina's ward just then, and sighed when she saw Helen. "You really have to help Aunt Gina out this time." "What is it?" Helen asked, despite already feeling impatient.

"I'll tell her," Gina said, her indignation suddenly gone as she tried to cry but could not even manage that.

"Oh, Helen... I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed and looked ready to slam her head into the wall, but Helen stopped her.

"What's going on, Mom?" Helen was certainly confused-what trouble did Gina cause for her this time?!

"Helen, do you know Larry Jameson? One of Zamri's Three Bears?" Cindy asked just then.

"Larry Jameson?" Helen's heart skipped a beat at the name. "I do. What's up?"

"Well, Peter returned to Riverton a few days ago and came straight to me, saying he had a serious business deal for me..." Gina trailed off, sobbing.

Cindy quickly continued, "Peter asked us to buy a land lot owned by Larry, saying that it would be used for future development and that we'd make big bucks with it."

Sighing, Cindy glanced at the inconsolable Gina before continuing, "He said it was a friend rebate since he and Larry were close, and that it was a sure profit. Aunt Gina thought that her son had finally made it, even making friends with a Zamri bigwig when Larry himself showed up."

Pursing her lips, Cindy then said, "She was so happy she bet everything on it, including Riverton Manor, but I thought it smelled fishy. However, Aunt Gina was determined, so nothing I said got through to her, and what do you think happened?"

Cindy laughed despite herself, clearly exasperated. "Now we're officially homeless-we went to check out that land lot, but there was an unfinished building sitting on top of it! There's no value to it at all, and we couldn't even get inside because it's a nest for homeless folks and thugs.

"Aunt Gina finally realized she was conned out of all her money and estate, while racking up a huge debt from a loan shark she had to borrow from. It's not just a loss-she really has nothing left!" Naturtall, Gina was also fuming at her dear son, who had conned her and disappeared entirely, nowhere to be found.

"Urgh..."

Helen felt a terrible migraine after hearing what Cindy had to say.

She turned to level an exasperated look at Frank before flashing a pained smile. "Equality, I guess. Peter had to trick Mom out of every dime and almost sell off my company." "What?! What did Peter do?!" Gina looked up in shock.

Helen then told her everything that had happened today, after which Gina was left shaking with rage. "What a prick!!!"
