Chapter 898 Poor Carmen

Carmen believed it was only natural for Alex to give them one hundred million since he was capable of producing a hundred times that amount in the past. After all, my beautiful daughter was married to him for so many years, and she even gave birth to a son for him. Considering how rich he is, I'm sure he's perfectly capable of giving us more money. "Heather, I want you to ask him for another ten billion. I'm sure he won't mind giving it to you since he's so rich."

Lucas also thought it was such a pity to lose ten billion just like that, so he immediately nodded in agreement upon hearing what Carmen suggested. "Yeah, Heather! You should ask Alex for another ten billion. Considering how readily he gave you the money last time, he'll definitely agree to your request!"

Heather was so infuriated by her family's absurdity that she chuckled out of disbelief. I think I understand something Alex. I'm not the one who was liberated when I divorced him. Instead, he was the one who was liberated from such a horrible family. What he attained was true freedom. Instead of reflecting on their mistakes and turning over a new leaf. Mom and Lucas pushed their luck and became even greedier.

"Let me ask you two something. What identity should I use to ask him for that much money? I've already divorced him, thanks to the two of you. It's your own fault that we ended up in this predicament. You reap what you sow. I've lost my happy family and even my child no thanks to the two of you!" bellowed Heather.

Upon ending her sentence, she left and slammed the door shut, ignoring her mother's shouts. I can't stay in this family even a second longer. There's nothing I can do to change their fate. They should be the ones to take responsibility for their mistakes!

"Please don't leave us, Heather! What will we do without you?" Carmen screamed at the top of her lungs and didn't stop until Heather left in her car.

Just like that, the mother-and-son duo were left in the empty villa where not even a bed that they could sleep in was available.

Livid, Carmen gritted her teeth. If that son of a b*tch, Aiden, is here right now, I'm going to tear him to pieces! Not only did he lie to us, but he also took everything in my house, leaving nothing behind! Now, Lucas and I don't even have a place to sleep in the villa!

Meanwhile, Lucas was similarly incensed, though for a different reason. I'm going to lose my mind if I spend another second with this foolish mother of mine! After glaring at his mother, he stormed out of the villa without a word.

When Carmen saw her son was leaving as well, she swiftly grabbed his arm. "Where are you going? You're not going to ditch me, too, are you? I'll follow you wherever you go. Please replace a place for me to stay."

That was the first time she spoke so humbly to her son. She had no one else to blame but herself for losing nine billion.

Disdainfully, Lucas shoved Carmen's hand away and growled irritatingly, "It's your fault that I'm in danger! Stop following me!"

Carmen lowered her head and replied piteously, "But it's almost winter right now, and there's nothing left in this cold house. I... I also don't have any money!"

Lucas grew increasingly irritated at the mention of money. Fed up with her, he turned and strode out of the building.

He was planning to seek out those beautiful women he had dated before. I think I spent at least five hundred

million on those women. I'll be able to get through this crisis if I can ask for two hundred million back from them.

It wasn't until he arrived at his destination that he realized how idiotic his plan was,

Those women treated him like a god when he was rich, but now that he was dirt poor, they refused to even spare him a glance and immediately kicked him out when he asked for money.
