SWNOVELS Chapter 122
Chapter 122 The Debt Note Left by Father
“Dad, show some respect to Lucian, he is my elder brother’s son.”
Simon really could not bear the behavior of his parents, and at the same time, he really could not accept his parents turning their backs on Lucian because of money.
“Shut up!”
Gabriel shouted angrily, his face was full of anger, and said, “I don’t care who he is, I only know that the 20 million dollars belongs to Bowman family, no one can take it away, I can give him five thousand dollars. I have already given you enough face, stop being so shameless.”
“Brother, just listen to your father, you have already paid a lot for Alexander, don’t continue to be dumb.”
The younger sister Cher Bowman came to Simon’s side and persuaded him, “He clearly wants the 20 million to himself. We can’t be deceived by him. No matter what he says, don’t believe it. He is the same as Alexander, they’re all liars.”
“Cher, don’t say
that about my elder brother, he is not a liar.”
Simon’s emotions became more and more agitated, his eyes were glaring, and he wished he could just swallow Cher in one bite. While he was angry, he was also a little sad. When Alexander was alive, he was so glorious, and he was admired and followed by countless people.
It turned out, after his death, he was called a liar by so many people.
His eldest brother was not a liar, but a hero, and a well-deserved prodigy of business.
It took hundreds of years for a Father of Commerce to emerge.
His achievements were unprecedented.
It was just that he trusted the brothers around him too much, so he ended up dying on the street.
“Mom and Dad, look, my elder brother is absolutely crazy,” Cher spread her hands, looking helpless, and said, “Because I was fooled by Alexander before, I was crazy, and now I am fooled by Alexander’s son. You idiot, save him quickly, don’t let him continue to be dumb,”
“Simon, your sister is right,”
Gabriel nodded heavily, and said in a threatening tone, “The reason we took back the 20 million dollars is to save you from suffering. Alexander was not a good person, and his son is not a good thing. He clearly knows that we have paid so much for their family. A lot, but in the end, he came here to ask for money, obviously treating you as a fool. As a family, we must help you,
understand?”
Susan walked up to Simon, and said earnestly, “Simon, I am really heartbroken to see you this way. If you feel that five thousand dollars is too little, then I will give him an extra ten thousand dollars. This is my final bottom line, you cannot continue messing around.”
Susan waved at Cher.
Immediately, Cher took out a stack of cash from her wallet, threw it directly into Lucian’s arms, and said with a look of disgust, “Little beggar, take the money and get out, from today onwards, the Bowman family has nothing to do with Alexander’s family. If you dare to continue to ask for money, I will find someone to deal with you.”
Simon, a 40-year-old man, was about to cry when he saw what his family did.
“Is this about money?”
“There are so many of you, bullying a child, where is your conscience?”
“The 20 million must be returned to Lucian. Even if you sever ties with me, you must return it to him. My elder brother is dead, and Lucian is my kid. I can’t just watch you bully him like this.” I feel so sorry towards Alexander.”
Simon looked at the members of the Bowman family in disappointment, and said with a heartbroken voice.
There was a hint of firmness in his disappointed eyes, he had already decided that if the members of the family were determined not to return the money to Lucian, then he would sever ties with the family and help Lucian to get back the money.
“Simon, are you crazy?”
Gabriel, Susan and the others were all shocked. They did not expect Simon to sever ties with his family because of a beggar who came to ask for money.
What kind of ecstasy did this little beggar feed Gabriel?
Camille and Rosine were equally shocked, and immediately went to persuade Simon not to get agitated, but Simon’s attitude was very firm, if the family did not give 20 million dollars to Lucian, then he would break up with the family.
“As you wish.”
Gabriel said in a h oa rse voice with anger on his face, “If that’s the case, then what’s the use of having you as my son? Without you, I still have another son, and I still have this grandson, Dennis. You useless brat, go to hell with Alexander.”
“Dad, since that’s the case, then I…”
Before Simon finished speaking.
Lucian ran forward immediately, grabbed Simon’s arm, and prevented him from saying the next thing. He shook his head slightly and said, “Uncle Simon, thank you for defending my father so much. I am proud of you, I don’t want this money anymore, after my father passed away, I did not leave anything to you, and I also express my apologies…”
These words were from Lucian’s heart.
There were many, many people who followed Alexander, those bad people were in trouble, but the loyal Simon had nothing. This sincere gesture, he had already remembered it in his heart, and in the future, Simon would definitely make a comeback.
“Deal, so you promise that you don’t want it?”
Gabriel seemed to have grasped Lucian’s words, and immediately said, “A real man will not break his promise.”
Lucian snorted coldly, and said, “Gabriel, I did not ask you for this money because of Uncle Simon, of course I will not regret what I said, but, as for whether you will be able to use that money, we shall see.”
This sentence angered the Bowman family, everyone was filled with righteous indignation, and wanted to go up and argue with Lucian.
Seeing this, Simon felt extremely tired, and said, “Lucian, let me send you off first.”
Lucian nodded slightly, and came to the yard with Simon.
When Lucian was about to leave, Simon sighed and said guiltily, “Lucian, I’m really sorry, but don’t worry,
I will definitely give you the money back…”
“Uncle, I apologize to you on behalf of my father.”
Lucian said, “Those unscrupulous people are still living their glorious lives out there. My father had so much property but has left nothing for you. Don’t worry, my father owed you in the past. As a son, I will make it up for you, and will not make you go through any hardships.”
“I don’t need these things!”
Simon looked serious, and said, “I only value the brotherly relationship with your father, and it’s not what you think. In fact, your father left me a lot, but…” Speaking of this, He smiled wryly, “It’s just that there was no way to turn it into money.”
“What?” Lucian was full of curiosity.
“A bunch of debt notes!” Simon smiled wryly again, and said, “Back then, your father’s Skypride
Group had a lending department, which disbursed about one billion dollars in Sioux alone, but after your father died, in the end, it became a dead debt, and I tried to collect the debt, but they only recognized Alexander, not me, and so it was useless to hold such debt contracts.”
