SHE LIED

[Chapter 38]

She thought her family only owed a few million, so with David's super-rich status, he might not care about this figure.

However, she did not expect them to owe 100 million.

100 million! Even if David was a super rich kid, could he take out so much cash at one go?

Perhaps his family could, but he was only a student. His family would not allow him to take out so much money to lend to someone he had only known for a few days.

What should she do?

What should she do?

No, she finally gave some hope to her parents, so she could not let them find out the truth.

"Dad, David will lend the money to me because… because he's my boyfriend! We've been together for half a year. I was worried that you'd say that I was too young so that's why I didn't dare to tell you."

Ken and Laura were taken aback.

The last glimmer of doubt in their hearts was also gone.

They did not feel strange that their daughter was able to find such an outstanding boyfriend.

They were very confident in their daughter.

However, Ken had another question in his heart.

Was this a lie that his daughter made up to comfort him?

Probably!

So, Ken said, "Call him now and see if you can borrow the amount from him."

Tara's heart tightened. She said, "Dad, I'll call him tomorrow. You should eat something, I'm hungry too."

As someone who had been in the business world for many years, Ken noticed the subtle difference in his daughter's behavior.

'Just as I suspected,' Ken sighed.

This was just his daughter's delaying tactics. At this moment, Laura said something.

"Tara, call him! If we can borrow the money, then your father can prepare. If we can't, then we still need to settle you and your sister. If not, your father and I won't die peacefully."

Tara had no choice. She could only take out her phone and called David after looking up his number.

Even though she was already feeling hopeless, she still hoped for a

miracle.

South River University.

David was backstage waiting for his turn.

Suddenly, his phone rang.

When he took out his phone to have a look, he saw that it was from Tara.

Why was this chick calling him?

Even though he was curious, he still answered the phone.

"Hello, Miss Tara Smith. Can I help you?"

On the other end of the phone, when Ken heard David calling his daughter 'Miss Tara Smith', his last glimmer of hope faded immediately.

No men would address their girlfriends like that.

However, Tara did not care about the trivial details.

"David, are you free now? I want to tell you something."

David looked at the schedule and saw that there were a few groups in front of him. So, he walked to a quieter place.

"What's going on?"

"David, I want to borrow some money from you!"

David was stunned.

'Borrow some money?

'Isn't this chick's family loaded?

'Why would she borrow money from me?'

"How much?" David asked.

"100 m-million."

"How much?" David thought he misheard, so he asked again.

"I want to borrow 100 million!"

"Why do you need to borrow so much money?" David asked.

"David, my family's business failed, and we owe a lot of money to loan sharks. If we don't pay up, our family will be doomed. Can you please help me? I'll definitely pay you back slowly."

Tara started sobbing into the phone.

Loan sharks?

That was something that would ruin her life.

The image of Tara rejecting Mr. Gomez's hints of sleeping with him appeared in David's brain.

If he refused now, after a while, this chick might become those people's plaything for the sake of money.

Alright, he would just think of this as saving a young lady who had taken the wrong step in life. "Is 100 million enough?" David asked.
