After Betrayal: Lightning Marriage to Mr. Enigmatic
Chapter 591 Parker Family Goes Bankrupt
CHAPTER 591: CHAPTER 591 PARKER FAMILY GOES BANKRUPT
Rose Parker certainly refused to leave, crying together with Ella Weaver.
Reese Renfrew really didn’t want Christopher Weaver to go bankrupt, because it would not only affect her own company, but if Christopher Weaver ended up in jail, Ryan Parker, being his brother-in-law, would definitely support Rose Parker and Ella Weaver indefinitely.
She couldn’t help but advise her son, "Go talk to Isabella Weaver. After all, you’re all family, why do things so drastically? This is her maternal home, if her own family gets into trouble, wouldn’t people laugh at her too?"
Alexander Parker looked at his mother with a gloomy expression, "Is that her maternal home? That family drove her mother to death, never sheltered her from any storm, and always struck her with thunder. Who’s to blame for their bad relations? Blame her?"
He refused to plead for Christopher Weaver; no matter how much his family urged, it was no use.
Christopher Weaver’s imprisonment relentlessly fermented online. The more glorious and honored he was before, the more disgraceful and cursed he became now.
Moonlight Jewelry also suffered a considerable impact. Many people questioned Isabella Weaver’s character, personally sending her father to jail—not an ordinary ruthlessness.
Ryan Parker’s company was even more affected. Christopher Weaver had previously tied up marketing with the Parker Family to boost his company’s reputation, and had appeared on various financial magazines with Ryan Parker.
The day after Christopher Weaver’s incident, Ryan Parker still publicly supported him, hired a lawyer, and actively tried to rescue him—after all, he was his brother-in-law, and his sister was crying nonstop for help, leaving him with no choice but to help.
A week later, the Parker Family declared bankruptcy.
Their financial chain had been on the brink for nearly two years and recently completely collapsed, leaving them with enormous debts.
As a result, Alexander Parker’s fledgling meat processing company perished, and his clothing company went bankrupt.
Billions of investment were just wasted like that.
All Parker Family assets were frozen, properties seized, cars taken for debt repayment.
The whole family, including Rose Parker and Ella Weaver, squeezed into a rented house, with the three women crying incessantly, while Ryan Parker smoked, seemingly aging ten years in an instant.
"It’s all Isabella Weaver’s fault. She’s a beast, an ungrateful wretch! I raised her like my own daughter, yet she not only lacks in filial piety but strives to bring us down!"
"Mom, what do we do now? We’ve lost everything, and Dad is still in jail! Will Isabella Weaver end up putting us in jail too? She’s so ruthless! We treated her so well before, I even gave her the diamond watch Dad made for me, yet she has no gratitude!"
"That little beast brought down our Parker Family too! It’s definitely her doing! Those debt collectors are like gangsters, even beat people, smashed everything at home!"
...
Outside the window, heavy rain poured down, washing the old cobblestone streets.
Alexander Parker stood by the window, listening to them insult Isabella Weaver so harshly, feeling a twinge in his heart.
He knew his cousin wasn’t like that, he knew how difficult her earlier life was.
He knew the watch she treasured was thrown away by his older cousin because it was considered tacky and old-fashioned.
His own childhood was too good, too carefree, to understand her hardship, only thinking she looked adorable with red eyes holding back tears, teasing her like a pet for a long time, never considering protecting her.
He even once thought Christopher Weaver beating his daughter was normal—for as long as he remembered, Isabella Weaver lived with constant beatings, and a day without was abnormal.
Everything now, isn’t it karma?
He was quite glad, his cousin finally got her revenge.
Is she happy now?
He missed her a lot.
