Richest Mogul

Stephen knew that this was a trap set specifically for him, leading him step by step into it.

Simona was pure and innocent. After knowing her for so long, he considered himself very familiar with her. It was only because of his lies and deceit that she was hurt and broke up with him. So, someone must be helping Simona to ruin him?

Although the women he had deceived before were all pretty well-to-do, they were nothing compared to Simona.

Suddenly, he thought of Simona's friends and the social circles she belonged to. Those were ones he had never truly entered or understood.

Then, it dawned on him-someone once mentioned that Simona's elder brother was no ordinary person, a highly capable individual.

He was among those who should never be provoked in Jipsburg.

Stephen instantly realized what had happened. It must be Simona's brother!

"Are you guys sent by Simona's brother? Is it him? It has to be him!"

Stephen connected the dots as he thought back to how his past deeds were recently dug up and exposed online, causing his downfall.

The money he had swindled from Rosa could have ensured a life of luxury, but he had been lured into gambling.

He had fallen into someone else's carefully laid trap step by step. He had never even met Simona's brother, yet he had already been outwitted!

Suddenly, he became acutely aware that the forces behind this were not something he could challenge. This was the kind of power that could destroy him without leaving a trace.

The debt collectors paid no attention to Stephen's ramblings. One of them slapped his face with the loan agreement bearing his signature.

"Can't pay your debts? I can make sure you rot in prison. Don't forget what you did while you were being beaten last night."

Stephen's eyes widened in terror.

Scenes he didn't dare to recall earlier now flooded his mind.

The men last night accused him of drug trafficking, saying they found drugs in his home and even on him. But, of course, they were framing him. However, he had taken some of the drugs!

Cold sweat drenched Stephen's whole body.

"I could take you to the police right now. Then, you can explain how much money you owe us and confess all the crimes you've done.

"Aren't you the only university in your village? How about I give you a new title-the first convict in your village?" the debt collector sneered. Hearing this, more sweat broke out, causing beads to roll down his face.

"I was wrong! I was wrong! I won't call the police! I promise I'll never bother Simona again! Please spare me! I swear, starting today, I won't go near her!"

He wouldn't have pursued Simona further if he had known she was not someone he could easily manipulate.

Who could have guessed that

someone as seemingly simple and

controllable as Simona had relatives who were so ruthless and merciless? This was far beyond what he could handle.

"Simona? What does she have to do with this? Who's Simona? Trying to play dumb to avoid paying your debts, huh?" The debt collector sneered, looking down on Stephen.

No one would believe anything Stephen said anymore at this point.

Stephen was utterly desperate. "No, I'll pay! I'll pay the money! Just give me a few days, and I'll definitely pay you back!"

"A few days? By then, it won't just be five million," the debt collector scoffed.novelbin

Stephen nearly fainted in despair. "Today! I'll get the money today! I promise!" "Fine. You have one day."

...

Rosa couldn't sleep a wink the whole night.
