Chapter 236
“Clara, I’m your mother! If you don’t help me, I’m doomed!”
Belle was extremely frightened. The creditors had been pressuring her more and more in recent days, and she felt completely desperate.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have turned to Clara Tor help.
Clara’s face twisted with disgust. “Do you even know how much you owe? And you expect me to help you? I don’t have enough money to pay off the debt you owe!”
“You’ve already hooked up with a sugar daddy, haven’t you? That Sergio! I heard he treats you like a queen and takes you everywhere. Aren’t
you about to become Mrs. Brooks soon?
The Brooks family is filthy rich. So million dollars is nothing to them. He’ll give it to you.”
When Belle mentioned Sergio, her eyes sparkled with hope.
Clara’s expression turned grim. “If I really could become Mrs. Brooks, I wouldn’t have been found by your creditors.”
Clara wasn’t oblivious to Belle’s boasts to the creditors, claiming that Clara would soon become Mrs. Brooks.
But now, those creditors kept finding her because they were aware that Sergio had cut off her funds. They valuable from her.
Clara gritted her teeth, and she was full of resentment
They had taken almost everything
“If you hadn’t leaked my information, I wouldn’t have been found by your creditors. You are nothing but a burden to me! Why don’t you just
“Clara! I’m your mother! How dare you speak to me like this? Don’t forget. If it weren’t for me going out of my way to help you dispose of the body back then, you wouldn’t be studying at Amenam University so smoothly now!
“Do you think you could pursue your postgraduate studies like this? You ungrateful wretch! All I ask is for you to help me repay the 80 million dollars and save my life, but you refuse.”
Belle’s Lace twisted with resentment,
“If you won’t help me, I’ll expose the truth about how you’d killed your best friend years ago! I’ll let everyone know that you’re not the one that Brooks Group has helped. You’re an impostor!”
“You…” Clara’s expression darkened.
She knew her mother’s character too well. It she couldn’t help belle repay the debt, Belle would expose the truth. When the truth came out, it Belle died, Clara wouldn’t stand a chance either.
With that realization, Clara took a deep breath and put on the demeanor of a dutiful daughter. “You’re my mother. How could I not help you? But if you reveal what I’ve done, I won’t be able to becomy Mrs. Brooks.”

Belle smirked. “I knew you’d find a way. Just become Mrs. Brooks, help me clear the debt, bother you and Sergio again”
Clara looked at Belle, feigning reluctance. “I also want to be with Sergio as soon as possible, but there’s an obstacle now.”
“What obstacle?” Belle asked.
Clara complained, “It’s Sergio’s wife, Maeve. Sergio’s feelings for her seem to have reignited recently, so he wants to cut ties with me. It Maeve died. I can find a way to be with Sergio.”
Belle furrowed her brows, seemingly pondering Clara’s words.
Clara reached out and held Belle’s hand.
She pleaded earnestly, “Mom, you’re my mother. I’ve been anxiously trying to gather money for you every d as Maeve is around, I can never become Mrs. Brooks. Can you help me?””

Belle looked at Clara warily. “How can
Thelp you?”
“Mom, you’ve been in the casino for so many years, so you must know many enforcers. Do me a favor,”
Clara leaned in and whispered something in Belle’s ear. Belle’s face paled with fright upon hearing Clara’s words. “No! Absolutely not!!!
“What’s the matter? Clara retorted with some annoyance. “Back then, you weren’t afraid to dispose of a body. Why are you afraid of this now?
