Chapter89 " Everything I did was wrong , wasn't it ? " " Dad … " I shouted in despair , " Can you please be reasonable ? I didn't say it was wrong for you to invest in projects , but you don't have money , you don't have experience , so why do you still want to invest ? " Don't you like staying at home ? Are you afraid that Quentin and I can't support you ? Why are you always like this ? And , since our family fell on hard times , when have we ever looked down on you ?
When you were in debt from gambling , wasn't it my mother who worried sleeplessly every day , shedding tears and washing her face with them , and wasn't it Quentin who risked his life to raise money for you ? You never considered your family , how old are you , why are you still so willful ? " That's enough ! I didn't call you to listen to your sermon . Right now , I owe someone seven million , which is not a small amount . You better hurry up and get Reynaldo to give it to me , quickly .
" I always thought about asking Reynaldo for money . Ha ! He really treated Reynaldo as an ATM , but why should Reynaldo give him anything , and why should he give me anything either ? Not to mention that Reynaldo now despises me . Remembering Reynaldo's cold and hateful gaze , my heart ached so much that I couldn't breathe . My dad kept urging me , " Did you hear ? I have to repay this money in the next two days . Go find Reynaldo and ask for it .
It's just seven million , he's so rich , he will definitely give it to you . " I couldn't take it anymore and shouted at him , crying , " You borrowed the money yourself , you figure out a way to pay it back , don't come to me again ! " My dad got angry and shouted loudly , " What kind of attitude is this ? I am your father , I … " Before my dad finished speaking , I hung up the phone directly . I hugged my knees and couldn't hold back anymore , I broke down and cried .

In addition to helplessness and sadness , there was also a strong sense of sorrow in my heart . I took Danielle to the hospital , got into a fight with Reynaldo , and now my dad's issue has come up again . One bad thing after another , almost suffocating me . Just then , my phone rang again , and it was still an unfamiliar number . I thought it was still my dad , so I answered the phone and cried out loudly without caring about anything , " I told you , don't contact me anymore .
You are so capable , figure it out yourself ! " There was silence on the other end of the phone , after a long silence . A gentle man's voice finally came through the phone : " Esmeralda , this is Mr. Pruitt … " I trembled all over and didn't react for a while . Mr. Pruitt asked in a gentle voice over the phone , " I heard from someone in the Personnel Department that you didn't come to work today . Did something happen ?
" I just remembered that I was supposed to go to work today , but because of my grandmother's situation , I also forgot to ask for leave from the company . I didn't know why the president personally called me to ask why I didn't go to work . Maybe it was because he wanted to take me to discuss the project today . I quickly wiped away the tears on my face and tried to speak in a normal voice , " I'm sorry , Mr. Pruitt .
I … I have something no on today , so I might not be able to go to the company and accompany you to discuss the collaboration project . " I am very sorry for letting you down this time , and also for disappointing your expectations and cultivation of me . Even though I tried to adjust my emotions and make my voice sound more normal . I could speak , but my voice still carried a hoarse and choked tone . Mr. Pruitt remained silent for a moment and then smiled , saying , " It's alright .
Since you're not feeling well today , just take two days off and rest at home . I was just about to tell you that the negotiation meeting for this project has been postponed . I will inform you of the specific time later . " " Time was delayed ? " I exclaimed in disbelief . Mr. Pruitt laughed over there and said , " Yes , the person in charge of the investment side had some matters , so the time has been delayed , and it just so happens that you took a day off today .
" I pursed my lips and felt that something was a little strange . For example , as a new employee in the company , I am just a small staff member , invisible and insignificant . Instances like my absence from work or project delays do not require the company president to personally call and inform me .
