Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 427

Debbie has nothing to do with me now. My initial interest in her was purely accidental.

Back then, I just didn't want to get caught in the crossfire. Now, some people are shooting themselves in the foot. It's truly poetic justice.

Marcus, thank you. You've added a lot of spice to my otherwise ordinary life today."

"Lillian, you've got some gossip?"

Seeing the curious look on Marcus's face, Lillian chuckled. "You're swimming in secrets and gossip every day. Are you still this interested?"

"Heh, you know us Parkers, we make our living on information. It's a professional instinct. Besides, in our circle, the more you know, the better."

Lillian had no intention of keeping it a secret. "I haven't verified it, but I know these people all too well.

Bella brought Debbie here.

And that thirty million for Debbie most likely came from Bella.

Even though Bella's salary is low—what she earns in a year probably isn't even enough for her own expenses—she shouldn't be short on cash right now.

She holds a significant number of shares in the Mercer family, and she made a very generous offer when she bought my mother's shares from me.

My guess is she borrowed a large sum of money, and if I'm not mistaken, only Sebastian could have lent her that much.

She spent a large portion of it on the shares, so she should still have a smaller part left.

This time, she and her mother put on a big show, and they likely got a handsome 'performance fee' from Martin. So, coming up with thirty million right now probably wasn't too difficult for her.

However, the casino gave Debbie a credit line of a hundred million. Let me calculate..."

As Lillian spoke, she was already mentally calculating how much cash Bella likely had on hand.

After a moment, she smiled faintly. "If the casino gives her a credit line of three to four hundred million, this town won't be short on gossip for a long time to come."
