Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Slapped Faye Townsend in the face

How could you be so selfish and only think about yourself.

Hurry up and get back there.

Even if you have to kneel, beg him to save the Townsend Family."

"No one can save the Townsend Family.

As long as the Townsend Family is in your hands, it will be doomed sooner or later."

Faye Townsend erupted in angry yelling.

Slap.

Richard Townsend raised his hand and slapped Faye Townsend.

Faye Townsend didn't cry or make a scene, just gazed blankly at her own brother.

This older brother of hers who had been called a prodigal since childhood.

When their parents were still alive, the Townsend Family was a scene of prosperity in Anchester.

Merely two years later.

The Townsend Family had fallen from heaven to hell.

All of this was thanks to this prodigal son.

People say wealth doesn't last three generations, and indeed, she believed it.

Now was indeed the most perilous time for the Townsend Family, but also the most painful time in her life.

And what her own brother could do during such times was nothing more than to kick her while she was down.

She turned and prepared to go upstairs.

Richard Townsend stepped forward and grabbed her: "Where are you going?

Are you ignoring what I said?

Or do you want to start begging from today?"

"Brother, I'm begging you, let me keep the last bit of my dignity."

Faye Townsend shook off Richard Townsend's hand.

Richard Townsend turned and ran back into the living room to pick up the landline: "Do you think dignity can feed you?

We are about to declare bankruptcy.

What the hell is dignity?

I don't need such useless things; if you won't make the call, I will."

Richard Townsend quickly dialed Hunter Warren's mobile.

By the time Faye Townsend rushed down to grab the phone, it was already too late.

"Hello, brother-in-law, it's me, Richard Townsend, here's the thing, our family…"

Before Richard Townsend could finish, a devilishly enchanting voice came from the other end of the line.

"Haven't you seen the financial news today?

From today onwards, I am no longer your brother-in-law.

So now you can call me Mr. Warren, or Second Master Warren."

The voice from the landline was very loud.

Even though Faye Townsend was standing a step away, she could hear it clearly.

Faye Townsend closed her eyes and tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart.

"Did you need something?"

"It's like this, as you might know, the Townsend Family is currently facing a financial crisis, I was thinking…"

"Enough." Faye Townsend stepped forward and pushed him to the ground.

She grabbed the handset and slammed it down on the base.

"Richard Townsend, have you no shame?

Didn't you hear what Hunter Warren said?

He's telling you that he's no longer family with you, and has no obligation to clean up your mess."

"Who caused all this?

You dare to yell at me, you dead girl.

If you hadn't divorced Hunter Warren, how could something like this have happened?"

Faye Townsend couldn't hold back anymore, she clutched at her hair on her forehead and screamed out loud.

"Ah… Is all this really my fault?

It's you, it's you! If you could have learned from Dad, how could the Townsend Family possibly fail?

Please, I am really suffering right now.

Don't make me suffer any more."

Richard Townsend clenched his teeth: "I don't care, I can't be a beggar.

The only one who can help us now is Hunter Warren.

I have to find him.

Also, how much property did he give you when you divorced?

You better hand it all over immediately."

Faye Townsend helplessly closed her eyes, "Didn't you see when I came in I was only carrying this? I left with nothing."

"Faye Townsend." Richard Townsend pointed at Faye Townsend and yelled furiously: "You're simply insane.

What exactly did you gain from marrying Hunter Warren in the end?"
