Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2503

Hannah Roland’s mother was surprised at her words. “How? Where did you get the money?” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Her mother was quick to push her away. “Hurry up and tell me!”

She seemed worried that her daughter would do something bad for her sake.

Hannah knew in an instant what her mother was thinking.

“Mom, don’t worry. I earned this money the proper way,” she assured her.

“I borrowed it from a good friend. I’m sure you know her. We used to sit next to each other until she transferred to another school during the second semester of our junior year. Her name is Celine Belfast.

“I got in touch with her today and told her everything. She said she’d lend me the money after listening to what I said.

“She has a lot of money saved up, and it’s enough for your treatment. However, it’s on the condition that I must return the money, which I will.

“Her family owns a property company, and they are hiring a sales personnel. I’ll be working there to repay my debt,” she explained.

She had to lie. Although she was going to work at a decent bar, it was still a night shift job. That wasn’t a proper job for her parents with traditional mindsets.

Hence, her mother didn't have to know about the details. If she did, she'd come up with all sorts of excuses.

First of all, her mother would disagree. In her opinion, people from complicated backgrounds frequented such bars. Girls weren’t safe in places like that.

Then, she would argue with her daughter and even force her to quit thinking about working in a bar.

All Hannah’s efforts would go to waste.

To prevent that from happening, she had no choice but to lie.

Her mother seemed surprised. “Are you serious? Hannah, I don’t agree with this.”

“Yeah, I'm serious," she nodded. "Why would I lie to you? I’ll have to work for her family for a very long time without a salary, but that’s not important compared to your life.

“Why would you disagree, Mom?” she added.

Her mother had a look of guilt in her eyes. “It’s a lot of money we’re talking about here. When will you ever get to stop working? I might not even be cured if I receive treatment for my cancer.

“Wouldn’t it all be a waste if I still end up dead after spending all that money?

“Even if I do survive it, it still won’t do. My life shouldn’t be exchanged with your freedom,” her mother added.
