Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 494: The Great Tribulation
After negotiating, Josh led the group towards the underground garage. Patiently, he gave them the keys to his car, which sent the group away. When the people had left, he returned to the house in a fury.
Ela was instructing the maids to clean the floor and met him like a mouse meeting a cat. Looking at her like that, Josh was furious and shouted in a cold voice, "Come here!"
Ela did not dare to hesitate and dutifully followed her inside.
The two men walked into the study one after the other.
Josh threw the door open with a heavy thud, causing Ela to shake a few times in fear.
Slamming his palm down on the table, Josh snarled at Ela, "You've got a lot of nerve, how dare you touch a loan shark!"
"Honey, I'm sorry, I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong, please forgive me this time!"
Ela rubbed her palms together in fear and looked at Josh with teary eyes.
"Don't come to this trick, it's useless. If I had known about this scene today, I should have divorced you long ago. I ask you, is there any more owed?!"
Josh looked at Ela with some hatred and disappointment in his brow.
Ela's face turned pale when she heard that Josh wanted a divorce, and she shook her head vigorously, saying with certainty, "No more, no more. I didn't actually borrow this loan shark, my brother borrowed it in my name, it really wasn't me, you believe me, husband!"
She picked at Josh's clothes and pleaded bitterly.
Josh sniffed and was so angry he wanted to spit blood.
At the moment the heart is filled with remorse.
Ela's irresponsible brother is causing trouble after all!
How did he end up with such a family in the first place!
He stared at Ela for a long moment.
Seeing her crying with tears all over her face, the one-day couple finally softened their hearts.
"This is the last time, if there is another time, let's not live this life, divorce!"
Finally leaving a message, he brushed his sleeve and left.
After he had gone, Ela stumbled and fell to the floor, unable to return to her senses for a long time.
Her mind reverberated with what Josh had said, the blood fading a little from her face and her heart panicking.
Just didn't dare to tell the truth with Josh, in fact, besides the millions, her brother probably owes more...
By the end of the night, Josh had not returned either, and Ela's mind made a decision.
Instead of living in fear every day, it would be better to just walk away.
With a few simple things to pack, Ela left the Thompson family, the home she had lived in for over twenty years. The next day Josh returned home, still resentful.
After calling Ela's name a few times without an answer, Josh went upstairs to have a look.
Josh was shocked to find that his home looked like it had been burgled.
The first thought was that the gang had returned, but then it became clear that the home had not been burgled.
As all that was missing was Ela's clothing, all his things were still in their original condition.
A bad feeling rose in Josh and he dialled Ela's number, but it remained unanswered.
Could it be that this Ela has run away from home?
When I went downstairs and asked the maids, they said that Ela had left during the last night.
Josh couldn't help but feel amused, and it really did live up to the saying.
Husband and wife are birds of a feather, but they fly apart in the face of disaster.
In vain, he had doted on her for years, but now he had left him behind.
Josh sat dishevelled on the floor, counting what was left around him.
The eldest daughter has disowned herself, the youngest is wanted and even his wife has run away.
It's really sad and sad.
The next day, someone comes to the door again and Josh is alarmed.
When he opens the door, he sees the same Scarface from the other day at his door, with Ela's brother Shen De at his side.
Scarface looked at Josh and said viciously, "This kid owes us more than the previous millions, he swindled us brothers. Now please pay the gambling debt he owes, if you don't, I'll chop off one of the dog's arms today!"
Shen De was terrified at his words and quickly begged for mercy, "Brother-in-law, you must save me, please save me!"
Josh frowned and said coldly, "I save you? How can I save you? Now that your only sister doesn't want you, how can I save you? I'm telling you, if you know what you're doing, take your people and leave from me, or else I'll call the police!" At these words, one of the youngsters stepped forward and taunted, "Call the police? Fine, that's what we want, let the police come and see how much money this kid has borrowed from us. Let the police come and see how much money this kid has borrowed from us. Let the police also judge, pay back what you owe, or take your life if you don't have money!"
He said and pinched Josh's lapel, in a vicious manner.
As he hadn't slept all night last night and hadn't eaten so far, Josh's brain couldn't help but have a bout of dizziness.
Being choked by the neck collar, it was even more difficult to stand up.
When the youngster saw his face, he thought he was faking it and punched Josh directly in the corner of his mouth, and blood came out immediately.
"Old man, don't pretend to be pathetic, if you don't pay up today, don't blame us for not being polite!"
Josh stumbled from the blow and a blackness came over him, and he swayed before he could slow down.
Looking at the grim faces before him, undaunted in the least, he said, "I said I wouldn't take a penny, so if you want the money, kill me."
When he said that, he closed his eyes. The little brother was furious and was just about to do something more when Scarface made a sound and the little brother immediately walked over. With a fawning face, he said, "Boss, what do you think we should do next?"
Scarface looked around and said, "This home is well decorated, there should be a lot of valuable things inside, didn't he say he couldn't get the money, so don't keep anything inside."
The youngest brother was ordered to hurry to greet his brothers, and these rabble-rousers rushed inside the room, smashing and robbing as they should.
Josh was anxious to see this and went in to stop it, but was pushed and shoved and fell to the ground.
He also happened to bump his head on the protruding part of the coffee table and, coupled with a heart attack from anger, passed out straight away.
The mob panicked as they watched Josh bleed quite a bit on the ground.
When Scarface saw this, he too felt that something was wrong and hurriedly led his brothers away from the Thompson family.
It was only after the men had left that the butler dared to come out.
Seeing Josh collapsed in a pool of blood, the emergency number was called urgently and he was taken to hospital.
The lights in the emergency room soon came on and the housekeeper kept pacing outside the door.
Half an hour later, the doctor emerged from the emergency room with a stony face.
"Are you a family member of a patient?"
The butler sniffed and shook his head, "I'm just his butler, not his immediate family."
The doctor frowned at this, "The patient is in a somewhat critical condition and a family member is required to sign the sickness notice, it would be best for you to contact his family."
