In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 566



Lauren wasn't aware why Hayden was interested in Kevin given that it had nothing to do with her anyway. After all, she would be paid fifty thousand every time she brought him there. And that was a lot more than she could earn working in a cafe. ...

Before Kevin went back upstairs, he had mentally prepared himself. Taking a deep breath, he pushed open the door and saw that Eva was home.

Without saying a word, Eva rushed over and slapped him hard on his face.

Feeling heartbroken, Sharon looked toward her and reprimanded, “Eva, why did you slap him? He isn't sensible because he is still young. He already feels bad enough. There's no need to slap him at all.”

Eva snapped, “Why are you still protecting him given how dire the circumstances are? So what if he is still young? He shouldn't have gotten into that kind of trouble. He keeps making mistakes because you have spoiled him. Kevin, you should have just stuck to playing with your phone. Why did you start gambling? What makes you think that you can win given that you have never made any money before? We have never placed any hope on you to be successful, but at the very least, you shouldn't be holding us back.”

Eva hated how her parents spoiled Kevin just because he was a boy. They were so biased that it didn't matter what he did wrong.

However, Kevin reacted appropriately this time. He dropped to his knees suddenly and cried. When no tears came out, he could only declare in remorse, “Mom, Dad, Eva, I know I have messed up. I have been cheated and didn’t want this to happen either. I will definitely turn over a new leaf, so don't be angry at me anymore. I know I deserve to be punished. I only acted that way because of the stress from my studies. Therefore, I don't plan to continue with my exams. Instead, I'll start working to pay back all the money I owe.”

Reaching out his hand to help Kevin up, Wesley remarked in disappointment, “Your actions have caused us to feel disheartened. Your sister is right, you really arent sensible. Given how young you are, how dare you act so brazenly. Tell me, if you don’t continue your studies, what else can you do?”

Eva was worried that she too would be dragged into Kevin's problems given that her phone had been ringing non-stop since the morning Kevin's creditors had started to call her and demand their money back brutishly. In fact, even her colleagues received the calls, causing her to feel humiliated.

Infuriated, Eva bellowed, “What's the use of apologizing? You should go and pay back your debt instead of dragging your family into it. Do you think money grows on trees in our family?”

When she saw how furious Eva was, Sharon tried to assuage her anger, “There's no need for you to be so angry. Skylar would definitely help us as she is worried that we will sell the house. By using it to threaten her, she will definitely cough out the money willingly.”

Eva was dumbfounded at the fact that they assumed Skylar would be so easily convinced.

She sneered, “If Skylar really treated us like family and felt grateful to us, she wouldn't have ignored us the last time.”

Sharon furrowed her eyebrows. “Skylar told me today that she was the one who helped Kevin with the game credits the last time.”

Eva smirked. “I was the one who resolved it. Did you think she would have helped? Looks like we have to force her hand by going to the press. We can accuse her of forsaking her family after becoming famous. She would then be left with no choice. But, I have to make it clear that this matter cannot be linked to me. After all, I work at the Ford Group. If my boss knows that I am involved, I will hate all of you for the rest of my life.”

Eva's gaze was both cold and cruel. As Wesley and Sharon exchanged glances, they felt that her idea sounded like a workable plan.

After all, every celebrity treasured their reputation, and Skylar would definitely not want the matter to blow up.
