His Domineering Lover
Chapter 676

Under everyone's gaze, Renee had to tell the whole story. Xia's Group was on the up and up, so five million should be a piece of cake for Ben.

Ben used to buy her and Leo high-end luxuries and never refused their requests.

After Renee finished her story, Tracey was a little surprised. It was she who set Leo up to go to the casino for the first time. She was doing that to get back at Carmen. She knew Leo was an idiot, but she didn't expect him to have gambling problems. He was no longer the rich guy he used to be. No money, no background, and he became a gambling addict. Johan snorted coldly. He still remembered how he hard whipped Leo last time. It seemed that Leo hadn't learned his lesson. "Grandpa, I know Leo was wrong, but it was not entirely his fault. When we got kicked out, we had no money and no jobs.

"Maybe he was just gambling to make things better for me and Mom." "So you think it was the Xia family's fault? I can't believe you take your incompetence for granted.

"If you had studied hard, you would not have been so miserable even if you got thrown out of the house.

"You had it coming! Your life was all cakes and ale, and now you can't even afford a cake!

"Look at Tracey. She is the real daughter of the Xia family, but she never relied on it. She made her career on her own.

"Why you never reflect on yourself? Haven't you learned your lesson?"

"Grandpa, I didn't mean that. The Xia family has been nice to us. I wouldn't be here if I weren't desperate. Uncle, I'll pay you back when I can."

Ben looked at Renee, who had been his daughter for 21 years. In the past, he would give her everything she wanted, but now...

Things were different.

Johan thought Ben was gonna say yes, so he quickly added, "Don't forget how they hurt Tracey. If you helped her, you wouldn't be my son anymore."

If Ben hadn't been so indecisive, Tracey wouldn't have suffered so much. Johan didn't want Renee in his life anymore.

Renee was just a selfish pest. She would never know she was wrong.

"Grandpa, I know you don't like me, but you can't just leave me in the lurch, can you?" Renee knelt down to Johan.

Ben shook his head helplessly. "Get up."

"Uncle, I beg you, I'm really desperate. I promise I'll pay you back. I'll write you an IOU."

"She's not your daughter, and she made your family fall apart. Think about Tracey and Venus. You can't go soft on her." Johan reminded Ben hurriedly. Ben helped Renee to her feet. "I'm sorry. From the moment you left the Xia family, I have made up my mind that I would no longer care about you. "You do have suffered a lot, but it doesn't make up for what you and your mom did to Tracey. It's not a matter of money. If I agree, I'm hurting Tracey. "You and Leo are adults now, and you should be independent. He got what was coming to him. Sorry, I can't help you."

"Uncle!!!" Renee was panicked. Ben was her last straw. What should she do now?

"Off you go." Ben walked straight into his room.

"See her out," Johan said to the housekeeper. He was more tough-minded and did not waver because of Renee's tears.

Renee walked out of the Xia Residence. It was snowing heavily outside. She stood alone there and didn't know where to go. Was she really gonna see Leo being sold abroad?

She walked towards the snow in a daze. After a long time, she found she was in a busy street. Everyone was happy for the new year, excepther.

All of a sudden, her phone rang. It was Rocco.

She quickly wiped away her tears and tried to speak in a calm tone. "Hello."

"Renee, are you at home? Can I come to you now?" Rocco's voice was so gentle that it could warm her heart.

"Well, no." She didn't feel like talking after what had happened to Leo.

"No? It's snowing outside. Where are you? You want me to pick you up?" Although Rocco did not know what had happened, he guessed some of it. "No, I'm good. I'll just take a cab back."

"It's hard to get a cab on new year's, and it's snowing so heavily. I got a car from my friend and I'll pick you up right away."

Renee looked around. Perhaps she was too unlucky, there was really no taxi.

It snowed so hard today that many taxi drivers

gave themselves a day off.

"I'm in..." Renee told him where she was. It wasn't long before he came.

A black BMW stopped in front of her, and a handsome man got out of it. "Why didn't you take an umbrella? You're all wet." Rocco took off his scarf and put it around her.

"I was afraid you wouldn't see me with an umbrella."

"That's impossible. Wait, your eyes are red. Who bullied you?"

"I got sand in my eye."

"Lair. You must have cried. Tell me what happened."

"I'm really fine."

Rocco took her into the car. The air conditioning warmed her up a lot. She was upset, but Rocco kept asking her. In the end, she told him everything.

"So you were crying because your brother owes five million bucks to the casino?"

"Yes. I don't have so much money."

"Idiot, I do. It's just five million. I'll help you." Rocco stretched out his hand and patted her head.
