The Almighty Dragon General -
Chapter 392
Chapter 392
Thea had no other choice.
At this point, all she could do was fork over the money and get this over with. Since this money came from someone else originally, she did not feel as horrible about letting it go.
Gladys calmed down when Thea gave in to their badgering. She sighed, “Thank you, Thea.” Turning towards David, she addressed him sternly. “From today onwards, you're not allowed to leave the house without my permission.”
“Yes, of course.”
David knew he had no choice but to agree.
After the heated discussion, Thea decided the best way forward was to pay off her brother's debts. Knock! Knock! Knock!
A knock came from the door. “Answer the door, Benjamin,” Gladys said to her husband. Benjamin answered the door.
Aman and a woman in their mid-twenties stood outside.
The man was in a suit and tie.
The woman was in a professional outfit.
Benjamin looked at them and asked, “May I know who you're looking for?”
The man asked, “Is Thea Callahan here?”
“Ah, yes and you are?”
The man replied, “Good day to you sir, we're from the bank. We're here today to notify Thea regarding the sum of money she has in her account.”
"Ah, please come in.” Though Benjamin did not understand what was going on, he welcomed them in. After letting them in, he called out, “Thea, they're looking for you.” “What?”
Thea looked at them nervously. Then, she stood up and asked, “Y-You are?” The man spoke, “Hello, Thea. We're from the bank. Here's the thing, Mr. Xenos made a slight mistake and accidentally transferred a sum of 2 billion dollars into your bank account a while ago.”
The woman pulled some documents ago and said, “This is the transfer record. Mr. Xenos had wanted to transfer the money to a company, but it entered your bank account by mistake.” The man continued, “This sum of money doesn't belong to you. On behalf of the bank and Mr. Xenos, we urge you to return it. We're here just to inform you. Soon, we'll transfer the money in your bank account bak to Mr. Xenos. If you've already spent some of it, ensure that you return it immediately. Otherwise, you'll be prosecuted in court.’ They their barrage of demands hit Thea like a truck.
Thea was rooted to her spot.
David, who was on the sofa, leaped up immediately and yelled, “Bullsh*t. Mr. Xenos gave the money to Thea himself. Who are you people anyway? Get lost. I'm telling you, don’t even think about getting a single cent back!”
This sum of money was his lifeline.
What would he do about his debt without the money?
Without the money, he was as good as dead.
The man spoke simply, “We're here just to inform Thea. That's it.”
Saying that, he turned to leave.
The woman followed suit.
Soon, only the Callahans remained. David pleaded tearfully, “Please don't return the money, Thea. I'll be a dead man if i don't have it to pay my debt.” Thea sat on the sofa feeling more drained than ever.
She said in resignation, “This money isn't mine in the first place. Mr. Xenos gave it to me because he was fearful of the Black Dragon's wrath. Now that the Black Dragon has resigned, it's only natural that he'd want it back.” “You can't return it, Thea!” Gladys tried her best to persuade her, “How are we going to save David without the money?”
“I-l don't know either!”
Thea was at a loss.
Although it was Richard who transferred her the money, he was free to take it back whenever he found it convenient. On top of everything, she only had 1.5 billion left on her card. Richard was demanding she return the two million dollars. Even if she had transferred everything she was still 500 million short. She'd be taken to court if she failed to return it. Shortly after the representatives of the bank left, Thea received a notification from the bank. All money on her card was transferred away.
Richard must have been behind it.
Richard was an influential man. Demanding the bank to transfer the money on her card back to him was a simple task. Without the money, the rest of the Callahans started panicking again.
“What are we going to do now?”
David yet again began to cry.
