Skylar felt awful when she saw Kevin’s room had been decorated with posters of his choices.
That used to be her room, but no one could tell she used to stay there. She found herself pathetic because she couldn’t even hold on to her grandmother’s keepsake.
She had moved into different types of accommodation since Meredith passed on. Although she had a desirable lifestyle, she missed staying there the most because of the time she spent there as a child.
Sharon slammed the stack of transaction slip on the coffee table and suggested, “Why don’t you check on this and tell us how you’re going to compensate us for our loss?”
“Why should I compensate for your loss?” Skylar asked with a frown.
Kevin had spent a fortune playing a game with the title of OASIS. Upon a simple glimpse, Skylar was taken aback by the transaction Kevin had made.
Wesley and Sharon had been spending in moderation. In fact, Sharon would go to great lengths just to save up a few extra cents.
Unfortunately, Kevin had spent the last three months reloading his account. The transaction that took Skylar by surprise the most was the time he transacted thirty thousand within a single day.
He had spent over a hundred thousand to play the game. OASIS was another game developed by Ford Group. It had topped the chart since the day it was introduced to the public.
Since it was another game developed by Ford Group, it would cost the players a fortune to enjoy themselves.
Skylar returned the stack of transaction slips to Sharon and rebuked, “Did you guys seriously ask me to come all the way here just for this?”
The infuriated Sharon yelled, “Tobias is the ultimate beneficial owner! Who else are we supposed to approach when you’re his girlfriend?”
Skylar couldn’t get used to taking a seat on top of the furniture made out of rattan. She could feel her bottom aching in spite of the cushion.
Irked, she rebuked, “If you’re conscious it belongs to Tobias, how am I supposed to help you? Why don’t you get in touch with a customer service personnel instead?”
Skylar didn’t bother to hold back against them. Thus, Wesley yelled, “Are you getting full of yourself just because you have made a name for yourself? A few hundred thousand is nothing for you when you’re such famous personnel, isn’t it? I bet you didn’t even flinch when you purchased that mansion for your mother!”
Smirking, Skylar asked, “Uncle Wesley, were you there when I made the call to purchase the mansion? I’m sorry to inform you I have spent the few hundred thousand in my possession to purchase the mansion. In other words, there’s nothing I can do because I’m as poor as a church mouse now. Can I leave yet?”
Sharon couldn’t suppress the wrath she felt anymore. She started taking things out on Wesley and reprimanded, “See? How dare you consider her a close family member of yours? How are we supposed to live from now onwards? If they refuse to refund us, we’ll confront those in charge in person for scamming a teenager!”
Heaving a long sigh, Skylar was disappointed by the selfish duo in front of them. They refused to reflect upon their actions and started blaming others when they were the ones at fault.
Skylar brought her bag away with her and added with a smile, “Eva is a member of Ford Group, isn’t she? Why don’t you guys head over to Ford Group and cause a fuss? Let’s see if her career is at stake because of your action!”
Subsequently, Sharon went dead silent as soon as she heard Skylar. That was one of her concerns because when they approached the customer service personnel, the other party had made it clear teenagers above sixteen-year-old would have to bear the consequences of their decision.
As it was getting late, Skylar thought she should stop wasting her time with them. She suggested, “Please approach Eva for help because there’s nothing I can do. I don’t mind footing the bill on Kevin’s behalf, but I don’t have that much as of now.”
Once Skylar made herself clear and dismissed her liabilities, she walked out of the manor and made her way back.
Heaving a long sigh, Wesley asked, “What should we do? Skylar has turned us down, and we can’t afford to put Eva’s career at stake! Can you think of something to salvage our fortune yet?”
