Chapter 990

Ever since then, she had never felt so desperate, not even when he died unexpectedly

She didn't get it.

Everything was fine before. How did it end up like this?

"Cut the crap! Who do you think you're fooling?" the middle aged woman rolled her eyes

She used to act like she was loaded in front of them,

but now she's claiming to be broke?

"No way I don't buy it. Grant wouldn't just abandon us!" the man who just called Paige scoffed. "We're not leaving without our money!"

"Right! We're not going anywhere until you pay us!"

Peyton was taken aback, "You lot are being way out of line! You were begging for my help before! Now that the Sutton family is facing a little hiccup, Paige and I had a small spal, and this is how you treat me! [ They all exchanged looks.

Peyton whipped out her phone again, "Let me just remind you of this. You know who Paige's best friend is, right?"

She showed them a picture of Paige and Rosalynn.

"Her name is Gabriella, the heiress to the Jared Group, and my daughter Paige's best friend If she replaces out how you're treating me, she won't let you off the hook!"

Her eyes welled up as she continued to prove to these poor relatives that she was not desperate.

She then pulled up a picture of a construction site.

"Look at this! This is a piece of land that my daughter purchased, and they are about to commence construction of an office tower on it. If you don't believe me, go and ask who the owner is. It's Paige!' Gabriella had been quite famous lately

Everyone present knew her.

Looking at the photo of the construction site,

the relatives exchanged glances again.

Then the middle-

aged woman spoke up. "Sis, let's all cool down. We were just being a bit too eager. You know, your two nephews are both in college, and tuition alone costs several hundred thousand a year. Their living expen Her tone had softened,

and she had stopped rolling her eyes.

Peyton scoffed. Don't call me sis. I don't deserve that. In any case, I won't short-change you I've never been unfair to anyone!"

She paused, "If you want to stay, then stay!! When Paige and her friend come, you can meet Gabriella""

Everyone fell silent

after hearing what she said.

Truth be told, they were once the bottom rungs of society.

Without the Sutton family, they wouldn't have had a chance to make any money.

So, they were unsure whether what Peyton said was true or false.

If she was lying, they would just get their money a few days later than expected.

But if they were actually to offend some big shot, then they'd be screwed!

"Sis, I was just talking out of my ass. Don't take it seriously!" the man said with a smile, "How about this, we'll give you a week to talk to Paige and settle our money" "We'll get out of your hair now!" Everyone stood up

and politely said goodbye to Peyton.

Peyton didn't even look at them.

Once they left, Peyton's legs went weak, She quickly went to the door and bolted it shut,
