LittleNovelChapter 2674 The security team charged into action, determined to catch them.
Lyndon kept a firm hold on Rita, handing off the situation to the guards, then hurried her toward the hospital.
Lyndon had a drink tonight, leaving him unfit to drive.
Instead, he waved down a taxi outside the club, guiding Rita to the nearest hospital.
As they rode through the dimly lit streets, his eyes narrowed at the sight of her pale face.
His frown deepened.
Why were you singing there? Who are those two men? he asked, his voice tight.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRita bit her lip, hesitant.
Theyre loan sharks. Ive been singing there part-tto scrape together extra cash. Lyndons eyes narrowed further.
You went back to loan sharks? No! She shook her head quickly.
Her words tumbled out in a rush.
Earlier, my grandma got sick, and I couldnt get the money from anywhere else.
I had to borrow from them.
Her voice faltered, but she pressed on, But their interest-its outrageous.
I paid off the principal ages ago, but the interest just keeps piling up.
Its more than what I borrowed, way worse than a bank.
They never stop adding to it.
Lyndons jaw tightened as he fixed his gaze ahead.
How much do you still owe? he asked finally.
Three hundred thousand, Rita whispered, her voice catching in her throat.
Lyndon stole a glance at her, his tone gentler now.
Who gave you the Loan? Rita hesitated, searching her memory.
Everyone calls him Kellan.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKellan? Lyndon frowned.
Could it be Kellan Craig? The nwas familiar-Kellan was a dangerous a N figure, a thug with axici vicious fou reputation in the area. Lyndons expression darkened, but he kept his voice steady.
Youre not from Betton, are you? Rita shook her head, her voice, barely ке audible No, Im from Skrix.
I brought Grandma here to Betton for her treatment.
Lyndon was quiet for a beat, the weight of the situation sinking in.
Then he spoke firmly, his eyes fixed ahead.
Forget about the loan sharks.
Ill take care of it.
Rita blinked, and her eyes welled with tears, the relief almost too much to hold back. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
