CHAPTER 69: CHAPTER 69: SPEECHLESS FOSTER FATHER

She hung up the phone and instantly hailed a taxi to the rental apartment!

Throughout the ride, she kept recalling the situation her mother had described over the phone, clenching her heart, worried and also very angry!

Getting off the car, she rushed to the apartment entrance, greeted by chaos that looked scarier than a burglary.

Chloe Gable lay collapsed in the midst of the chaos, crying sorrowfully.

"Mom!!" Faye Turner rushed in, dropped the bag in her hand, and quickly reached out to support her, "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

The middle-aged woman shook her head with tears, "I’m not hurt, but the last bit of money at home was snatched away by Vincent Turner... It was the money I saved for Milo’s tuition."

"Didn’t he already take the 1 million dowry?" Faye Turner couldn’t understand, "How long has it been? He’s squandered it all so fast?"

"Faye, gambling is a bottomless pit..." Chloe Gable’s hair was disheveled, and her clothes were messy, she was extremely upset.

She had lost faith in the future, "I’m really worried about Milo, he’s going to take the college entrance exam next year... Now the child’s mental health is a big issue, he may not be as strong as you."

"Mom, it’s okay if the tuition is gone, I have it!" The girl looked around, "We can’t live here anymore, we have to move quickly. I’ve asked someone to secretly handle Milo’s transfer procedures!"

"Asked someone?" Chloe Gable felt this matter was really difficult, "Who can you ask? Your husband? Your marriage was so sudden, there’s not much emotional foundation, Mom doesn’t want to drag you down, he may not help you."

"Mom, how can you say it’s dragging me down?" Faye Turner comforted her, "For Adrian, this might just be a matter of lifting a finger."

If a transfer could be arranged, it would certainly be best.

Vincent Turner wouldn’t be able to trace her whereabouts.

To dispel her mother’s doubts, Faye Turner further reassured her, "Although Adrian has no obligation to help us, eventually there will be times I can help him with something. Reciprocity should suffice, so you don’t have to worry too much. Leave Milo’s transfer to me."

"Faye, I feel really bad, you’ve gotten married, and Mom still has to trouble you."

"What are you saying?" Faye Turner reached out to hug her, "Just because I’ve gotten married doesn’t mean I’m not your daughter anymore?"

Then, she released her mother and searched for housing listings on her phone, "Let’s move first."

Helped her mom pack up the things, and then move.

After three hours of busy work, Faye Turner finally got her mother settled.

Milo was still at school for now, Vincent Turner had just been here, and if he came again, it should be after a while.

"He thinks the Lancaster Family has money, and since they gave him 1 million, they’d definitely give me 1 million too." Chloe Gable sighed, "He’s come for the 1 million."

In fact, he guessed right, but Chloe Gable didn’t accept it at the time.

"Mom, if..." Faye Turner spoke rationally, "if I sent him to jail, would you understand?"

The middle-aged woman was shocked by these words! Facing her daughter’s gaze in disbelief, she didn’t hurry to refute, really scared.

Seeing her mother’s nostalgia, Faye Turner quickly changed her tone, "I was just asking, don’t overthink."

A day as a couple is a hundred days of grace, how could she want to blow things up?

If Vincent Turner ended up in jail, how could Milo get married in the future? The Turner Family would be looked down upon.

Indeed, Chloe Gable held onto the final sliver of hope for this disappointing man, hoping he would change for his son’s sake.

"Faye, how have you been? Is it tough? Have you been wronged?"

Her mother held her arm, examining her carefully, "Have you lost weight? Is Adrian Lancaster treating you well? Are you being aggrieved because of our kind of family?"

"No, no." The girl smiled from ear to ear, her tone light and comforting, "He’s very kind to me, today when I went shopping, I used his card, and the rent for this place is also taken care of by his card."

Faye Turner bid farewell to her mother, it was time to go home.

Chloe Gable felt very guilty, her family couldn’t become her daughter’s support in marriage, and Faye Turner comforted her, "Don’t think too much, I’m very happy."

Aqua Flora Residences, in the study of 2801.

The video conference had ended, Adrian Lancaster stared at the last expenditure information on his phone, involuntarily perplexed.

Over eight thousand yuan, what did she encounter?
