Chapter 799 - The Xia Family’s Cold and Relentless Nature

A sullen expression formed on Xia Haolin’s face as he ended the call.

Looking extremely menacing, he grabbed the mobile phone in his hand tightly and his knuckles turned pale. He did not expect that those ruffians would go back on their word and threaten him.

500,000! It was not a small sum at all, even if they were not in dire straits now. Not to mention, they were currently facing a major financial crisis. It was a hefty sum that would put a dent in their pockets.

If he could do so much with 500,000 yuan, how would he be willing to give it to someone else?

Xia Haolin’s face grew sullen and he walked towards the entrance door, which he opened forcefully before walking towards the living room.

Even a monster would not hurt its own children. Chen Linfang did not expect that Xia Haolin would be so vicious as to find someone to abduct Xia Ruya for the sake of getting her money.

However, as Xia Ruya’s family, the Xia Family was being too terrifyingly ruthless.

The call soon went through and Old Mr. Chen said, “Linfang, the Xia Family is in dire straits now, but it’s not that we don’t want to help them. It’s just that they’re in need of too much money and the amount is beyond our means. I know… you’re their daughter-in-law and you’re being put in a spot. However, we really don’t have a choice. If we were to help the Xia Family, we’ll end up getting ourselves implicated as well.”

No matter what happened, the Chen Family would be the ones that she could depend on in the end. As long as they were around, her future wouldn’t be too terrible.

Xia Haolin’s extramarital affair had traumatized him.

The only thing she learned from the decades of her marriage, was to plan ahead for herself.

Old Mr. Chen frowned and decided not to probe any further, thinking to himself that it would be inconvenient for Chen Linfang to divulge too much since she was the daughter-in-law of the Xia Family. However, he was certain that she must have had a reason for calling him just to tell him to be wary of the Xia Family!
