Chapter 304
Overnight, the Gold family went bust and went viral.
Theizens jokingly said that their family was a negative example of criminalw for everyone, and
they should be awarded a “Lifetime Achievement Award” for being so dedicated to poprizing the
law.”
Jean was detained on charges of hiring a hitman and abetting murder. Although it was not enough for
the death penalty or life imprisonment, it was at least a 20-year jail sentence. Jean was 50 years old,
so she would probably spend the rest of her days in prison.
Patrick suffered a heart attack and was admitted to the ICU due to this huge blow. The scene was
chaotic at the time, so he could not get rescued in time. This resulted in cerebral ischemia and hypoxia,
brain tissue damage, and severea.
“Ms. Gold, you must be mentally prepared. There is a great possibility that your father will remain in this
vegetative state.”
After hearing the diagnosis from the doctor, Rosalind, who was standing at the door of the ward, felt
like she was struck by lightning. Her stiff face lost all color.
The Gold Corporation was heavily in debt. In the past few days, manufacturers and creditors went to
look for Rosalind to ask for payment. Rosalind was so scared that she stayed in a hotel and dared not
go home.
Between hiring awyer for her mother and her father’s hospital bills, Rosalind had almost used
up the remaining of her savings, which gave her a taste of what it felt like to be poor. However, things
got worse. Within two days, Roza Walker’s employee found Rosalind. That day, Rosalind left the dress
behind when she ran away from the banquet. When she remembered the dress and went to pick it up,
she discovered that the expensive dress was covered in footprints, as it had been trampled on like a
piece of rag.
“What?! Five times thepensation?!”
Rosalind clutched the im form and shouted angrily. Her eyes were red with anger. “Five times the
amount is more than $6 million! Why would you charge me $6 million for a piece of tattered clothing?
Why don’t you just rob a bank?!”
“It’s only $6 million. Do you think it’s expensive?”
Roza’s assistant smiled. “Those who order dresses from us are either rich or famous. They can afford
dresses in the tens of millions of dors, let alone $6 million. If you thought it was expensive, you
shouldn’t have borrowed Ms. Walker’s clothes in the first ce. Why would you buy something you
can’t afford?”
“You! How can you talk to me like that?! I want to file aint against you!” Rosalind was so angry
that she was breathing fire. Her facial features were contorted.
“Okay. You canin as much as you want, but please pay thepensation to the ount on the
im form within two weeks. If you don’t pay us in time, we will bring you to court.” After that, Roza’s
assistant looked at Rosalind contemptuously and left.
Rosalind narrowed her eyes and plopped down on a chair. At first, she covered her face and
sobbed softly. In the end, she could not hold it in anymore and burst into tears.
After a while, she was tired of crying. She gritted her teeth, wiped her face, and drove to Tideview
Manor alone.
Now, herst hope was Shannon.

How could Shannon shirk off the responsibility for putting Rosalind in this situation? That woman was
her aunt, so she could not stand idly by no matter what!
At this moment, the Salvador family was in the dining hall.
Nigel’s condition stabilized, so hisplexion turned rosy again. The old man did not like staying in the
hospital and had returned to his vi in Crescent Bay to recuperate.
Everyone in the Salvador family was present tonight. Justin was also at the table.
However, the dining atmosphere was so depressing that they could get indigestion.
Usually, Shannon liked to show off her love for Gregory at the dining table in front of Justin by sharing
food.
But tonight, Shannon and Gregory each ate their own food. Gregory’s face was gloomy, and Shannon
kept picking at her te. She clearly had no appetite.
However, Bethany had a great appetite and ate more than usual.
“You should eat less! Can’t you see that your face is much rounder than before? You’ll have trouble
getting married if you keep this up!” Shannon was frustrated because of her sister’s family affairs.
Seeing Bethany stuffing her face, Shannon finally found an outlet to vent her
anger.
“Tsk! Why can’t I eat more? Besides, I don’t need to worry about getting married.”
Bethany muttered and said nonchntly, “Dad, Mom, you don’t need to look so sad. Although it’s a
difficult problem to deal with now, it’s better that you find out sooner rather thanter. Short-term pain is
much better than long-term pain.”
