Chapter 132 It Was Unnecessary
Cason was very disgusted with Noah because he absconded with about 100 thousand dollars from a
client, which nearly caused the Stuart family to lose a major business deal.
Cason was very busy cleaning up Noah's mess during that time.
He kindly gave his late ex-wife's brother help, but he hadn't expected such a thing to happen. Philip's
only son was really nothing!
It was okay that Penny was still in contact with Philip, but now she got mixed up with Noah. He just felt
very disappointed.
Penny was wordless, not to mention she was not good at lying to Cason.
Now that Cason heard about this, it was probably impossible for her to borrow money from him now.
He was her father, but Penny found it difficult to ask him for money.
Thinking of Cason's liver cancer again, she just felt powerless.
"Dad, I didn't go to the banquet, not because of Noah, but Orlando. He's injured. I accompanied him to
the hospital and he didn't go that night either."
Cason narrowed his eyes and was surprised that Orlando was absent that night too.
Penny couldn't lie to him. After all, such a lie was easy to expose.
He breathed a sigh of relief and felt better.
"That's good. I thought you were stupid. Don't have much contact with your uncle. Susan isn't a good
person. But Philip and Haley still treat her like a treasure. Sooner or later, something bad will happen."
Penny quite agreed with his assessment of Susan.
But all that mattered was 1.5 million dollars now.
Cason should be in a good mood right now. If she suggested buying some gifts for Orlando, he might
agree.
But before Penny could speak, Cason's mobile phone rang.
He looked at the number with a trace of disgust in his eyes, but he answered it.
"What's the matter?"
On the other end of the phone, Haley's voice was hesitant. After a long time, she told him about her
intention.
"Cason, I know you still hold a grudge against my family because of what happened back then. But I
really can't help it. Susan smashed a luxury car not long ago. She needs to pay the car owner 1.5
million dollars in compensation. Penny said she'd help us work something out, but I'm very uneasy.
Cason, I know you're rich. Can you lend me the money? I'll sell our house and a few more pieces of
land..."
Cason was furious and coughed hard.
"1.5 million dollars?! Penny will help you?! Did she promise you that she'd pay 1.5 million dollars?
Where will she get the money?! Haley, let me tell you, this is Susan's mess. I can't help her. Your son
and daughter-in-law are both good for nothing!"
"Cason..."
Haley's voice was hoarse, but before she could finish speaking, Cason hung up the phone.
Cason looked at Penny with a sneer.
Penny frowned and guessed whose call it was.
She felt a little irritated. She knew that her aunt was worried. But she had told her that Susan would be
released in a few days and that she'd help them deal with the matter.
But Haley and Philip had been doting on Susan all these years, so they couldn't bear to have her stay
in jail for an extra day. So Haley called Cason desperately.
But it was unnecessary and counterproductive. Not only did it ruin her plan, but it also made Cason
know that she wanted to help the Glover family.
"Dad..."
"Haley just called me. Her son got me into such big trouble. How dare she ask for my help again?
Penny, if you help the Glover family pay 1.5 million dollars, you won't get the shares. Instead of
spending your money on the Glover family, it is better to pay for Lana's medical expenses."
"Give me back the bank card I gave you last time."
Penny's eyes flashed with disbelief, but she said nothing and handed it over in silence.
"How much did you spend?"
"35 thousand dollars."
"What did you buy?"
"I bought cufflinks for Orlando." Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Upon hearing this answer, Cason breathed a sigh of relief and then handed it back generously.
Penny didn't take it. She felt humiliated. So she lowered her head. "No need."
