Chapter 394
This time, no one would be able to protect Gwen.
Meanwhile, at the Torrey residence, when Igor returned home in the evening, he found Gwen pacing around in the living room. “Mom, what are you doing?” he asked with a frown.
“Igor, why did you only come back now?”
“I’m out of cash. You didn’t reply when I sent you a message, so I came back to get some money.”
Seeing that Igor only returned to ask for money made Gwenlose her temper. “Money, money, money! That’s all you know how to ask for! Don’t you know that we don’t have any more money?”
“We don’t have money? What kind of joke is that?”
Igor didn’t believe that they were out of money. He had been spoiled from a young age and had developed the habit of spending extravagantly. Even an allowance of half million dollars a month was not enough for him.
Even when the Torreys were going through a rough patch, the amount Igor received for his monthly allowance never changed. He wasn’t going to believe that they didn’t have any money.
“You
Before Gwen could finish her sentence, they heard loud banging on the door. The blood drained from Gwen’s face, leaving her as pale as a sheet. It must be the loan sharks. They had come to collect their debts again.
Igor was annoyed that someone was banging on their door so loudly. Displeased, he hollered, “Who is it? Are you trying to break the door down with that banging?
He moved to open the door as he spoke. He wanted to give whoever was on the other side a piece of his mind.
Gwen rushed forward to block his path. “Igor, don’t go!”
“Mom, who’s that at the door? Why won’t you let me open the door?”
Annoyance was written all over Igor’s face. He held the title of “Mr. Torrey Jr.“, and because of that, he always did whatever he wanted at school. His status as heir of the Torreys also ensured that nobody would dare cross him.
Now that someone dared to cause a disturbance right at his front door, there was no way that Igor would allow that to pass.
But Gwen clung to Igor and forcefully pushed him down onto a chair. “You’re not allowed to open the door. Sit here and stay put!” she snapped.
Igor was a little stunned. He didn’t understand what was happening
The banging on the door was getting louder and louder. Someone called, “Hey, bitch! I know you’re home. You’d better open the door before I break it down myself!”
“Who the fuck is outside and whose fucking door did you want to break down?”
Igor’s short temper exploded. Furiously, he shot up from his seat. At the same time, the front door was kicked right off its hinges. Beyond the doorway stood a group of gangsters. They were big and burly men, carrying wooden clubs and looking like vicious ruffians.
Gwen’s face turned even more pale at the sight before her. She didn’t think the loan sharks would go so far as to break down the door by force.
Igor wasn’t faring any better. Seeing the large group of people, Igor lost his nerve. He swallowed nervously and

“L
Gwen had no idea how to explain the situation to Igor.
The gangsters beat her to the punch. “You old hag, today’s the deadline to pay off your debt. If you don’t fork over the cash, we’re going to break your son’s leg!”
“No, no, no! I’ll give you the money! Didn’t I already give you 30 million dollars? I hope you’ll be lenient and give me just a few more days. I also need time to collect the money-
“Our boss has already been lenient with you for many days! Don’t forget that you borrowed 90 million dollars! That’s not even counting the interest you’ve accumulated! Ill give you an hour. If you can’t give us the full amount in that time frame you can kiss your son goodbye.”
