"Tell your father to let my son off, or I'll end my life right here, right now!"

Melissa's words were foul and filled with malice. The butler was about to get someone to drive her away, but I stopped him.

I stood at the gates and looked calmly at Melissa. "Mrs. Goodman, I've treated you like my own mother for five whole years. Most of the money I earned was used to pay for your medical bills. I never owed you anything.

  • I Bankrolled Him Five Years for Betrayal   Chapter 12

    "Tell your father to let my son off, or I'll end my life right here, right now!"Melissa's words were foul and filled with malice. The butler was about to get someone to drive her away, but I stopped him.I stood at the gates and looked calmly at Melissa. "Mrs. Goodman, I've treated you like my own mother for five whole years. Most of the money I earned was used to pay for your medical bills. I never owed you anything."Your son was the one who deceived me for five years. He trampled on my feelings just to get revenge on my father. You and your son worked together to treat me like a joke. Don't you find it absurd that you're making a fuss here right now? I've completely cut ties with Leonard, so don't ever bother me again."With that, I turned around and entered the villa. I told the butler to close the front door. No matter what insults she threw outside the gate, I no longer responded to her.Those filthy people and messy issues had no place in my life anymore.After everything

    Everyone at the scene instantly fell silent, and the same thought must have crossed their minds. "Mr. Anderson?"The smiles froze on Leonard's and Tanya's faces.The glee and mockery on their faces slowly faded, only to be replaced by disbelief and shock.The man in front of them was the top decision-maker at Leonard's company. He had the power to fire Leonard with just a single word.But at that moment, he was treating Dad with utmost respect and pleading desperately with him.Leonard stiffened, and his fingers trembled as he pointed at Dad. He stammered, "H-he's…"Leonard's superior straightened up and glared coldly at Leonard and Tanya. Then, he said in a stern tone, "This is the head of Anderson Group and the richest man in Rochmond, Mr. Marcus Anderson! You've offended Mr. Anderson's daughter, and you still dare spout such nonsense here? Do you have a death wish?""Daughter?" Leonard and Tanya thought, "Rena is Marcus Anderson's only daughter?"They looked like they had be

    When the people around us heard that, they turned to look at me with curious and judging looks in their eyes. Then, they began to whisper among themselves.Someone asked, "Who's this? She looks kind of plain. Why would she attend an event like this?"Another whispered, "I heard she's Mr. Goodman's ex-girlfriend. She went against her family's wishes and eloped with him, but she got dumped in the end. I bet she deserved it."Someone else stated, "She's reeking of poverty. She's probably here to latch onto someone wealthy."When Tanya heard those whispers, her grin widened. She lifted her hand on purpose to show off the ring on her finger. "Look, Rena. Leonard just bought me a brand new ring worth 80 million dollars. You've never seen such an expensive thing in your entire life, have you?"Leonard wrapped an arm around Tanya's waist as he announced, "Tanya is my legal wife, so of course, she deserves the best from me. She's nothing like a certain woman who threw herself at a man for

  • I Bankrolled Him Five Years for Betrayal   Chapter 9

    In Leonard and Tanya's eyes, I was just a broke woman who had gone against my family's wishes and eloped.They thought that Dad was just a minor businessman who couldn't even make it past the front door of Anderson Group.Dad couldn't be bothered to argue with them. He simply put an arm around me and turned around, heading outside. "Rena, let's go home. I'll handle the rest."Leonard and Tanya watched us leave, still hurling insults at us.I pretended not to hear them. I just wanted to leave this suffocating place as soon as possible.…In the car, as I gazed at the familiar yet strange cityscape outside the window, I finally realized that I was about to go home.The car drove into a heavily guarded villa district.This was the most elite neighborhood in Rochmond. Every single villa was worth a fortune, and it was also my home for 18 years.The moment I got out of the car, I saw the familiar villa in front of me with the household staff already waiting for me at the entrance.

    As soon as Dad met Leonard, he could see the deep-seated inferiority and warped obsession Leonard possessed. So, he was adamantly against me being with Leonard.But back then, I was so blinded by love that I refused to hear a single word of it. I just thought Dad was biased against poor people, and I believed Leonard truly loved me.I thought that as long as I loved him, I could overcome everything. I thought that if I suffered with him, he would grow to love me. I thought that if I gave up on everything, I would be able to experience true happiness.But now, I realized that I had been an utter fool."If you never loved me, why didn't you let me go sooner? Why would you lie to me for five whole years?" I looked at him as I spoke in a calm, emotionless tone.My heart had turned cold, so even if I got hurt some more, I would be numb to it. Raising a brow, Leonard spoke in a shameless tone that carried a hint of mockery. "I didn't have to spend money on you, and you'd even work for

    I looked at Tanya, whom Leonard was safely protecting in his arms. She leaned against his chest, her smile filled with glee and disdain. "That's right. I've known about you since the start."Her voice was soft, yet every word she said pierced right through me. "Leonard said you're a cheap woman who ignored your family's protests, eloped with him, and basically paid him just to keep him around. Even when you were bullied, you only suffered in silence. You're such a pushover."I came here today specifically to see you and tell you in person that you're the unwanted one here. For him, you ate scraps, worked as a janitor and a street vendor, and sold off everything your mother left you.""But he gave me a 50-million-dollar ring, a life of luxury, and thoughtful pampering." She lifted her hand, her fingertips gently caressing the diamond ring she was wearing. She was visibly eager to show off. "Say, how cheap can you be exactly?"The word "cheap" was like a stake driven through my heart
