Chapter 818
They had a smart daughter. And if Linda still hadn't found out about their family's crisis, Elisa would eventually tell her about it and possibly exaggerate the situation, which would only upset her even more.
Norman thought to himself, looking perturbed. Yet, he couldn't say a word to defend himself.
There was nothing that he could do to ease the situation.
At this time, Linda knew that she had guessed it right!
She knew it!
She was f*cking right!
How she wished she was wrong!
But her parents' expression was self-explanatory. Her father sold their house and liquidated all their properties to hire someone to infiltrate the Wickam Group. Yet, in the end, he failed miserably, and all the money went down the drain.
Tears rolled down Linda's ashen face.
Rose quickly held her hand and comforted her, "Linda, calm down. No matter what, your dad is still the chairman of the Wickam Group. He made a fortune despite only being tenured for a few years. What was lost can be earned back in no time!"
Tears couldn't stop rolling down her cheeks. Linda beamed a bleak smile, "Earn it back? If Elisa knows about this, then Gareth must have known too. Do you think Gareth will allow anyone to provoke him like that? We are doomed!"
She could feel her blood running cold. She couldn't help shivering in hopelessness!
She wrapped herself like a cocoon, shivering in terror.
"We have offended the Wickam Group. He could be bogged down with other matters now. When he decided to deal with us, do you think we have the means to save ourselves? What were you thinking, Dad? How dare you provoke Wickam Group?!"
On the other hand, Rose thought Norman's action was unwise and unacceptable. She drew a deep breath. She had warned Norman to abort his plan against Wickam Group. Boy, if only he had listened to her advice. He wouldn't change his mind despite her adamant disapproval.
Yet looking back now, they were fooled by that hacker!
The hacker deceived them! They paid two billion dollars for nothing! Somehow her instinct told her the hacker was capable of the task, but he or she deliberately ducked out on them!
But now, blaming Norman along with Linda would only worsen the situation. She didn't want to fuel Linda's rage and Norman's misery.
Rose drew a deep breath and uttered, "Please calm down first, Linda. I was also distraught and disapproved of his motive in the beginning. I agonized over your father's stubbornness."
Linda wouldn't stop crying. She believed Rose because her mother would never support her father's absurdity. But when he did it, it only proved that her father was too stubborn, and her mother couldn't change his mind.
Norman covered his face with his palms. He felt defeated and ashamed of himself.
Linda glowered at him. She had no sympathy for Norman, even if he was remorseful of his action. In fact, she wanted to inculpate him and evoke his contrite for his action!
Linda was in denial. She couldn't believe Elisa was right about her parents.
How did she wish it was a lie? Why did Elisa tell her about this?
Pain ripped through her chest! She felt like she was going to pass out from breathlessness!
