Chapter 360 Logan Was Back
Chapter 360 Logan Was Back
Shocked, Yolanda looked at the document on the table, shivering.
“How could it…” She whispered.
Without emotion in his eyes, Cornel said, “This document told clearly that you had transferred the money to your account in Swiss.”
“Dad, no…please listen to me!”
Yolanda, in panic, knelt down on the ground, grabbing Cornel’s sleeves.
“You have a look yourself!” Cornel directly showed the document to her.
Yolanda closed eyes, with no bravery to glance at the document.
She knew what she had done will be exposed, while it never occurred to her that she will meet this at this time.
She thought everyone’s attentions were paid to missing Logan, however…
Cornel watched her closing eyes to avoid this, smiling, “Why? Are you thinking how I know it?”
“No! I am not…dad, please allow me explain…”
“OK! You explain it now!”
Cornel spread hands, ready to hear how she made up and covered herself.
Yolanda glanced from the corner of her eyes at Jacqueline who was shivering badly, then at Elena, to see no surprising look on her face. She seemed to know it earlier, which made Yolanda swallow her words at the edge of her mouth.
Cornel roared with a low voice, looking at silent Yolanda, “Explain!”
Yolanda jumped, then came to herself from her mind. She said, “I recently bought shares out of a trustful friend. I did make some money at the beginning, however, I lost it all later. I had no way to go, but used the money to cover the gap.”
Speaking, she raised head, tear-stained. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Dad, you know! Since the thing about Elena, I got no money from the family. So I had no enough money to cover the gap. As a result, I used the money of the company.”
“Buy shares?”
Cornel listened, but didn’t believe what she had said, because even a little child might not believe in her lies. “Yolanda, are you regarding me as a 3-year-old child?”
So she deemed that he can be fooled by any lie.
So they became greedier.
“NO!” Yolanda tried to justify this. “Dad, it’s truth. I can show you the evidences, which are all the records of buying the shares. But I am afraid you said no to me back then, so I bought the shares under one friend of mine.”
“Enough!”
Cornel threw her away cruelly. Yolanda suddenly was pushed away, so she fell down and her head hit the table, which caused a blood hole on her head.
Jacqueline exclaimed and finally ran to help Yolanda up.
Cornel shouted with cold voice, “Who dare to help her up!”
Jacqueline was rigid there, while Yolanda was so scary that she held Jacqueline’s hand tightly. She pleaded, “Mom…”
With great care to her daughter, Jacqueline was raging. She stood up and let Yolanda behind her, screaming, “Cornel, are you mad? Don’t you see Yolanda bleeding?”
Cornel glanced at Yolanda, a little softened. But he said, “She deserved it!”
“Deserve it?” Jacqueline raised her voice, then rushed to grab Cornel’s collar, shouting. “Cornel, you open your eyes, and look at Yolanda. She is your daughter. You cannot treat her like this although she did something wrong.”
“Jacqueline…”
A plain voice rang, which suppressed her emotion and excitement.
Jacqueline turned to see George.
“Dad…dad…”
George raised eyes slowly, looking at her, “Cornel is teaching his daughter, you have no qualification to intervene.”
“But Yolanda is my daughter, too. I should also take the responsibility to teach her.”
“You know it’s your responsibility, why you pull her into the hell?” The gaze of George turned sharper.
Jacqueline cannot help shivering.
She gnashed teeth, saying in a low voice, “Dad, you said I pulled Yolanda into the hell? I never think so. In this world, no parent can be so cruel to harm his or her daughter…”
Speaking, she seemed to think of something, a spasm of fear flashing in her eyes.
She stared at George, to see he just looked at her silently, which made her in panic.
“Dad, what do you really mean?”
George hit the ground with his stick heavily. “You know it!”
Cornel only knew the thing about transferred money, knowing nothing about the accidents Logan had met. Puzzled, he stood still there.
“Dad…”
George shot him a sharp look, “You teach Yolanda, don’t bother me!”
Cornel was stunned. Yolanda knelt there, with a heavy head. She almost fainted.
Jacqueline immediately paid attention back to Yolanda. She pleaded, with a look full of expectation, “Cornel, I know Yolanda has done it wrong, but we have to take her to the hospital now. We talk it later, OK?”
Cornel didn’t appear to share her feelings. Before Jacqueline begged once more, a maid rushed into the living room in hurry, with joy and excitement in her eyes. “Master Brown, Mr. Brown is back here!!!”
Jacqueline’s eyes opened wide.
At the next second, she suddenly rushed at the maid, grabbing her clothes. She asked, with a twisted face. “What? What did you say? What do you mean with Mr. Brown?”
In her mind, she knew what the answer was, while the answer was something she refused to face.
