Chapter 114
These local gangsters were Gavin’s creditors.
They directly barged into Gavin’s house.
Gavin was still naked. When Gavin saw them, his face turned pale, asking, “Bosh, Kurt, what brings
you here?”
Bosh held a cigarette in his mouth and patted Gavin on the shoulder, replying, “Hey. Well done, kid.
You’ve got such a beautiful girlfriend!”
“Yeah. You’re so lucky to get such a beauty. She is so pretty that she almost looks like a superstar.”
These gangsters all agreed that the woman they saw just now was gorgeous, but no one would have
thought she was the Haynes family’s second daughter, Bruce’s fiancée!
After all, this was a slum. None of them would believe a decent woman would come here. Besides, she
hung around with a guy like Gavin.
Gavin’s face was paler, and his voice was shaking. Gavin replied, “Well, there’s no such thing. She’s
just one of my friends.”
“A friend? Haha!” Those gangsters all laughed in disdain.
Gavin dressed like a mess. Everyone knew Gavin must get it on with that woman.
“Alright, cut the crap! When are you going to pay back the money you borrowed?”
Gavin replied, “In a few days!” Then Gavin quickly took out cigarettes and lightened them for these
people.
Roxanne caught Gavin’s all attention even since Gavin hooked up with Roxanne.
When Gavin was with Roxanne, Roxanne was the one who paid most of the expenses. However,
Roxanne would occasionally wheedle Gavin into buying her a gift. One handbag cost Gavin more than
20 thousand dollars..
Gavin could not afford it at all. Therefore, he could only borrow money from others. Until now, Gavin
had already owed tens of thousands of dollars to
loan sharks.
“You’ve missed the due date for days. At least you should pay back the interest!”
Gavin begged, “Bosh, Kurt, please give me a few more days. I’m really tight on money these days!”
Bosh said, “Tight on money? Then how do you have the mood to mess up with a woman? How much
does that woman charge for a night?” Beautiful women were either socialites or prostitutes.
Roxanne was willing to get it on with Gavin. Therefore, those people thought Roxanne was in that
industry.
Gavin was instantly enraged and shouted, “Don’t you insult her! She’s a decent woman!”
Hearing this, Bosh was more interested and asked, “Wow. You got a decent woman to sleep with you.
“Ask your girlfriend to spend some nights with me if you can’t pay me back. I’ll take it as your
repayment of interest.”
Hearing those words, Gavin was so angry that his face turned red. He said, “Bosh, please don’t a joke
like that!”
“Then give my money back!” warned Bosh.
Bosh’s sidekicks pushed Gavin and said, “We were trying to be nice. How dare you speak to Bosh like
that?
“We want the money back!”
Speaking of money, Gavin suddenly felt discouraged, thinking, “How can I have the money to repay the
loan?”

Chapter 114
Roxanne was rich, but Gavin could not drop his male ego and was too embarrassed to ask Roxanne
for money.
Gavin thought, “Roxy already despises me for being poor. If I ask her for money, Roxy would probably
be more disgusted and think I’m useless.”
Therefore, Gavin said, “Bosh, Kurt, please give me a few more days. I’ll pay you back days later. I
promise it.”
Kurt said, “No negotiation. I want the money back today. You can’t repay the principal, but at least you
should repay the interest, shouldn’t you?”
Kurt widened his eyes, and the muscles on his face swung. He warned, “Pay back the interest of 6
thousand dollars now!”
Gavin put on a long face and kept begging, “I really don’t have money now. I can’t give you 6 thousand
dollars now even if you beat me to death.”
“Kill you? Nice dream! How can we have our money back if you die?
“How about this? Ask your girlfriend over to spend a night with me. Maybe I’ll waive your interest if I’m
happy!”
Gavin cried, “I can’t. Please stop joking!”
“Who the fuck is joking with you? Pay the money back or ask that girl to play with us!”
Gavin begged, “Just give me a few more days. I promise I’ll repay the loan. Please, Bosh. I promise I’ll
return the money in three days at most.”
In the Everett mansion.
Roxanne hurriedly drove and arrived at the Everett mansion.
Butler Henry led Roxanne into the house and said, “Mr. Everett, Ms. Haynes has arrived.”
Bruce replied coldly, “Okay.”
Roxanne looked at Bruce uneasily and said, “Bruce, here’s your car key.”
Bruce took it and said, “Grandma wants to see you.”
Roxanne said, “Oh, okay. How’s your grandma? Is she feeling better?”
Bruce did not reply. He just strode forward to lead the way.
Soon, Bruce brought Roxanne into Margaret’s room.
With the help of the nurses and doctors, Margaret moved from the bed to a wheelchair.
Bruce said gently, “Grandma, Roxy is here to visit you.” Then Bruce put his arm around Roxanne’s
shoulder, trying to be like he was intimate with
Roxanne.
Bruce thought, “Grandma is seriously sick now. All I want is to make her happy.”
Roxanne bent down and asked gently, “Grandma Margaret, are you feeling better?”
“Yes, I’m much better now!” Margaret looked at Roxanne and said in a hoarse voice.
Margaret felt Ker body was getting heavier and heavier and wanted to see her grandson get married
before she died. Margaret did not like Roxanne very much. However, after a big surgery, she wanted to
see her grandson marry Roxanne.
Margaret thought, “It doesn’t matter whether I like Roxanne. The most important is Bruce likes her.”
Thus, Margaret said, “Bruce, go get my jade jewelry.”
“Which set of jade jewelry?” asked Bruce.
“The emerald ones.”

Chapter 114
Hearing this, Bruce subconsciously frowned.
Bruce thought, “That set of emerald jewelry is an engagement gift from Grandma’s parents, and it is a
family heirloom passed down from Grandma’s ancestors! Grandma likes them so much that she only
wears them on important occasions.”
“No problem.” Then Bruce reluctantly walked toward a safe.
Bruce took out the set of jade jewelry and passed them to Margaret, saying, “Grandma, here you are.”
Margaret took the set of jewelry shakily and gently opened the box.
Inside was a pair of green bracelets, a bead necklace, a pair of earrings, and a ring,
Each one of them was priceless. An entire set of antique emerald jewelry like this could not be
measured with money.
Margaret touched the jewelry shakily, her eyes filled with gentleness. She said to Roxanne, “This is my
engagement gift from my parents. It’s passed down from my ancestors.
“Now, I’m passing this set of jewelry to you. You need to take good care of them.”
Hearing Margaret’s words, Roxanne was instantly stunned. She answered with a shaking voice,
“Grandma Margaret…”
“Come closer. I’ll put them on for you,” said Margaret.
“Thank you, Grandma Margaret!” Roxanne was so excited that tears flowed out of her eyes.
Margaret picked up the bracelet and put it on Roxanne’s wrist. Then, she put the rest jewelry on
Roxanne.
Margaret said, “Oh, they look beautiful. Young beauty makes this jewelry look even better.”
Roxanne asked, “Bruce, is it beautiful?”
“Yeah, it looks great!” replied Bruce. He had a smile on his face, but deep down, he was extremely
annoyed.
Bruce thought, “Grandma gave this set of jade jewelry to Roxanne, meaning that Grandma has already
recognized Roxanne as a member of the Everett family.
“However, I no longer have any feelings for Roxanne.”
Margaret said, “Bruce, Roxanne. Live a happy life after you get married and have children as soon as
possible!”
Bruce said, “Grandma, we will! You will see your great–grandchildren.” After saying that, Bruce
deliberately hugged Roxanne’s shoulder tightly and kissed her forehead gently.
Margaret’s smile became bigger when she saw how loving the two of them were.
After Bruce kissed Roxanne, he vaguely noticed a strange smell. Bruce did not like perfume, so
Roxanne rarely wore perfume in front of Bruce.
When Roxanne was having it with Gavin, Bruce called and asked Roxanne to rush over. Therefore,
Roxanne went here without a shower, and her body sent out a smell that revealed Roxanne had Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
intimate behavior with others.
Bruce suddenly felt suspicious and subconsciously took a closer look at Roxanne.
Roxanne’s face was as red as a rose because she had a wonderful time with Gavin. Besides, Gavin
was so good that Roxanne was a little weak now.
Bruce became more suspicious. Then he said, “Grandma, you must be tired now. How about having
some rest? I’ll send Roxy back home.”
“Oh, okay,” replied Margaret.
Bruce said to Roxanne, “You’d better get moving!”

Chapter 114
“Goodbye, Grandma Margaret!” Roxanne gently said goodbye to Margaret.
Then, Bruce and Roxanne left Margaret’s room.
Roxanne smiled happily and asked, “Bruce, where are we going now?”
“I’ll take you home,” replied Bruce.
“What?” Roxanne suddenly lost her smile.
“Get in the car!” urged Bruce.
“Alright.”
Bruce and Roxanne got into the car, and Bruce drove out of the Everett mansion without saying a
word.
Roxanne sneakily glanced at Bruce and felt a little uneasy in the car. After all, Roxanne was guilty
because she cheated on Bruce.
Roxanne thought, “Well, things were funny today. Margaret finally recognized me as her grandson’s
wife.”
“Bruce, where are we going?” asked Roxanne.
“I’ve already told you. I’m taking you home.”
“Oh, okay.”
Bruce suddenly ordered, “Take off the jewelry!”
Roxanne was stunned and asked, “What? Bruce? What did you say?”
“I’ll repeat. Take off the jewelry!”
