Chapter 19

“This is not happening again! How many times do we need to face this, Dad?” Emerose exclaimed. She was angry that their business was facing bankruptcy once again. For three years, Emerson had been struggling to manage their business. The investment that Jace made went to waste since the Morgan patriarch failed to stop his family from spending too much.

“I’ve tried so hard to maintain this business, Emerose. I warned you and your mother not to spend beyond our means, yet you didn’t follow. So don’t blame me if we’re down the drain again.”

“Are you blaming us? As the head of this family, you are responsible for providing us with our needs,” Merly replied angrily. She hated that her husband was pointing fingers at her and their daughter.

“Find another investor, Dad. Or better yet, talk to Jace again. He might want to marry me this time since he was separated from Emerald.” Emerose suggested. Old Morgan looked at her intently while thinking. After a while, he smiled and nodded his head.
