The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 447

Chapter 447: Chapter 447: I will come to you soon

Fiona suddenly stood up, her eyes filled with disappointment as she looked at her parents,

"Harry ended up in trouble because of me, how can I leave him and absolve myself? I’ve promised to stand by him through thick and thin!"

Fiona’s words were resolute, and the three members of the Harper family were momentarily stunned, forgetting to react to her response.

Her father looked at his daughter in bewilderment.

What did she just say?

Has she gone mad or have they gone mad?

"Fiona, are you crazy?"

It was her brother, Lewis, who first reacted and yelled at her,

"Because of your situation, Mom and Dad made countless calls today trying to plead with the Jennings Family to let you off the hook, and now you’re saying such foolish things?!"

Her mother also looked at her in disbelief, seemingly realizing something,

"Fiona, do you know that your colleague has a family? He has a wife and children!"

"I know," Fiona said, "but so what? He’s about to be sued because of me, how can I just abandon him?"

"You’re truly crazy!"

Lewis pointed at her and cursed, "You can’t reach the Jennings’ son, that’s fine, but at least find someone with a similar background. And you actually set your sights on such a loser! Are you out of your mind?!"

Being scolded so harshly, Fiona felt wronged and cried bitterly,

"What right do you have to talk to me like that? I’m just being true to myself, what wrong have I done?

Do I have to let you dictate my choices, picking a partner based on their family background? Is family background that important? Don’t I have the right to pursue my own happiness?"

Saying this, she looked at Lewis again,

"You pursued that Miss Selene because of her family background, but you don’t love her. You even took her antique ring and gave it to your lover, which is why you got beaten up. It just shows a marriage without love won’t end well."

Lewis was struck by his sister’s words, and enraged, he got up and left.

Fiona’s parents were equally infuriated, but they couldn’t just abandon her, so they tried persuading her for a while. Seeing she’d refuse to relent, even insisting on helping to cover the two million in compensation, Fiona’s father couldn’t stand it anymore and left with her mother.

It seemed rescuing this daughter was not imperative.

Better let her stay here for a couple of days and clear her mind.

The conversation ended poorly, and upon hearing Fiona wanted the family to pay two million in compensation, Lewis couldn’t accept it.

If he hadn’t broken up with Selene, they could have asked her family to arrange it, since they were rich—her pocket money alone exceeded two million.

But they had broken up.

The Harper family ran a business, but their annual earnings amounted to only a few million at best.

The gap with the true wealthy clans was significant.

Lewis was unwilling to have the family pay that money, but he couldn’t ignore Fiona either. Thinking it over, his only option was to approach the Jennings Family.

...

Without noticing, night had fallen, and the city’s lights had brilliantly lit up.

Scarlett Jennings and the production crew had just followed patrol officers to return a runaway dog to its owner. Checking the time, they planned to end today’s live broadcast.

However, before disconnecting, they suddenly noticed the chat in the live stream room erupting with something.

Scarlett took the director’s tablet, and upon seeing the content of the viewers’ discussion, she couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

It seemed someone in the live stream mentioned the follow-up to Chase’s earlier case.

It was said that Chase was suing Fiona and Harry Whitley, also demanding a two million compensation from them.

If Chase won the lawsuit, Harry would not only face prison but also bear a gigantic debt of two million.

Some viewers immediately thought Chase was too harsh.
