Money Only to Burn
chapter 48



Rebecca threw her last dignity into the wind.


He not only apologized but knelt down to plead to the person he constantly despised and looked down upon. This is his last hope. If he did not act on this opportunity, his family would be devastated.


But Cyril is not a relaxed person. Just kneeling down and apologizing doesn't mean he'll give in.


"Rebecca, you are constantly and constantly insulting me and plotting against me. It's time for us to settle the score. "


"Cyril, you can hit me, insult me, and do whatever you want to me. Please forgive me!" Rebecca was determined to bear any consequences.


Since he had already made a mistake, he had to suffer every humiliation to get back to his good books.


"Cyril, are you really going to hurt Rebecca? When I was abroad for four years, he was the one who was constantly taking care of me. Can't you just forgive him this time? " Rainee doesn't want Cyril to hurt Rebecca.


After all, they have a close relationship, having been a BFF college abroad.


"I wouldn't. Can you see my shoes and how dirty they are? If you lick them clean, I'll promise to discuss your father's corporate funding with Mr. Chambers" Cyril said


Of course, Cyril would not let Rebecca lick her shoes; she was just testing her sincerity and determination.


"Cyril, you..." Rainee wanted to express her anger but was stopped by Rebecca.


"OK, I'll lick both your shoes. Don't be mad, Rainee. Since I'm the one who created this mess, that's the least I can do. " This is his last chance.


For Rebecca, licking these dirty shoes was her last glimmer of hope. He took a deep breath, bent down on his knees, and began to move his head towards Cyril's shoes. It was an embarrassing sight.


As he was about to lick his shoes, Cyril pulled his foot. Rebecca started crying.


"I was just kidding. How can I let you lick my shoes? Rainee would be mad at me if I did that. " Cyril smiled.


Rebecca was relieved but grateful. At least he left it with some dignity.


"Cyril, I thought you were really going to let Rebecca lick your shoes!" Rainee is also relieved that Cyril did not destroy rebecca's last self-esteem.


"Come, wakeup. Tomorrow, I will discuss the matter with Mr. Chambers, but there is no promise. We should have an idea in two days, "cyril said.


Although it is up to Cyril to decide about investing but he is not stupid. After all, if it is a business investment, then it must be a good investment. He won't throw into the wind the dosh of his labor.


"OK, thank you, Cyril. If this works out, my whole family will be very grateful to you. " Reca stood up with a happy face.


If the famous DH Enterprise can invest in her father's company, her family can secure the business and maybe even prosper for the next.


After they separated, Cyril sent Rainee home and then back to her villa.


Once at the villa, Cyril called Hatcher to ask her to review Rebecca's family business premises and find out if it was worth investing in or not. The best solution is to get a professional financial manager to come in and discuss options.


"Yes, Sir. I'll get a professional financial manager to work overnight on the evaluation report. We'll give you the latest tomorrow." Hatcher replied firmly.


At that moment, Rebecca came home. Xinvaton Villa Estate is a luxury residential estate. The Leinsters are a wealthy family.


Just as he entered the door, he saw his parents were packing. They


put things in suitcases, especially valuables.


"Dad. Mother. Mother. What the hell are you doing? " Reca rushed over and said anxiously.


"Rebecca, it's good you're back. I had this conversation with your mother and we decided to run away tonight. Come and pack up right away, grab what you need" said his father Reagan Leinster, who now sweats profusely from packing what he considers a prized item into a leather bag.


He had to run away from the debtors tonight because dealing with them would be unbearable.


"Didn't I tell you to give me a few days to find someone?" Rebecca doesn't want to live life on the run.


"I have approached all the leading men in Chinsy for help and been rejected. What makes you think that people will invest in amateurs like you? Are you still referring to Ryan? He's too street smart to invest in a loss-making business" Reagan said in an agitated voice.


He was an experienced entrepreneur and knew early on that Ryan would not invest in their business.


"Rebecca, you still have a boyfriend, right? Your father and I were thinking that if you don't want to hide, then you should go with your girlfriend!" Rebecca's mother, Sylvia Breed, did not want her to have any trouble.


"How could I still have a boyfriend? He ran away when he heard our family was broke, "said Rebecca bitterly.


"Rebecca, it's all our fault. We're making you feel a lot of pain, "Sylvia said as tears rolled down her eyes.


"It's okay, Mom and Dad. I have a BFF whose girlfriend works for Mr. Hatcher Chambers. He promised to ask his boss to help us. " Ebeca told them good news.


His father was not impressed.


"Your BFF boyfriend is just a DH Enterprise employee. There are so many employees working for Hatcher Chambers. Anyone could say they worked for Hatcher Chambers, but how many actually had the strength to convince their boss? If they have no effect, then they are useless."


"Rebecca, which BFF girlfriend is this?" Sylvia was still hopeful. If there is still a glimpse of hope, he prefers to stay at home and not go on a run into the night.


"It belongs to Rainee." Answer Rebecca.


"Rainee's? Didn't you say he found a man with no money as his girlfriend? How could this fellow be influential to Master Chambers? He probably won't even get an interview with her." Reagan did not expect and did not think too much about Cyril's chances.


Sylvia, too, immediately lost her confidence when she heard it was a poor man.


"Forget it, Rebecca. Now, let's pack up and leave before dawn."


"Give me two more days. Mom and Dad, please, I beg you! He said he'd tell me in two days' time." Rebecca didn't give up.


Although she felt the chances of Cyril convincing Hatcher Chambers were not high, even if there was a 1% chance, she would not give up. The slightest glimmer of hope is worth extending.
