Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was Money Mrs.
Newtons sharp tone sent a chill down Sylvias spine .
She quickly stepped out of the car , clutching her skirt as she hurried into the police station .
Hope didnt need any further prompting .
She followed suit , stepping out of the car and walking inside without a word .
After explaining their purpose , the officers led the three of them to an interrogation room .
Louis was slouched in a chair , eyes closed , pretending to sleep .
At the sound of the door opening , his eyes snapped open .
A faint smile broke through his weary expression when he saw Hope .
His voice was hoarse but tinged with 1/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points excitement .
Sis , youre here .
Sylvia couldnt hold back .
Big brother , Sylvia and Mom are here too .
Why are you only noticing Hope ? Mrs.
Newtons face darkened .
Exactly , Louis .
Whats happened to you ? Louis glanced at them indifferently and said nothing .
The night before , when hed learned that Hope was the one whod reported him for drunk driving , hed been furious .
But as the alcohol wore off , he began to wonder if shed done it out of concern for his safety .
To test his theory , hed refused to leave even when his lawyer arrived to bail him out .
Hed insisted that Hope be the one to come get him .

Hmph , Mrs.
Newton sneered .
Do you know what her condition was for coming to get you ? She demanded a million dollars ! You think she really sees you as her brother ? Shes just after your money ! Hope didnt deny it , but she wasnt about to let them off the hook either .
All I asked for was a million .
Sylvia , on the other hand , wants Louis to invest in a TV drama with her as the lead actress .
A million wont cover that .
Louis , who had just been disappointed by Hopes demand , turned his gaze to Sylvia and Mrs.
Newton .
Is that true ? 4/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points Mrs.
Newton shrugged .
Sylvia is your sister .
If shes going to be a star , she needs projects .
As her big brother , whats wrong with investing in a drama for her ? Louis let out a bitter laugh .
In the past , he might have agreed with her .
But now , he finally understood why Hope despised the Newton family so much .
Mom , Hope is my biological sister , and shes a star too .
Whats wrong with giving her a million ? Youre willing to invest in a drama for your adopted daughter but begrudge a million for your own flesh and blood ? Mrs.
Newton stiffened .
She grew up in the countryside .
What does she need all that money for ? Fine .
If you want to give Sylvia resources , 5/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points do it yourself , Louis said , his voice heavy with despair .
No matter what he said , it seemed his mother was under some spell , caring only for Sylvia .
Louis ! Mrs.
Newton snapped .
Dont forget , the Newton Group belongs to the Newton family , not just you ! The companys profits arent yours to squander ! Take the money .
Take the company .
Do whatever you want .
Ill make my own way and support my sister .
Hope watched the drama unfold , skeptical .
Louis , the pampered heir , starting from scratch ? She didnt buy it .
This was just empty talk .
Brother , dont fight with Mom .
I wont act in the drama , Sylvia pleaded , her eyes red as she clung to Louiss arm .
6/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points Mrs.
Newtons heart ached for her , but before she could comfort her , Louis shook Sylvia off .
Dont call me brother anymore .
Hope is my only sister .
He grabbed Hopes hand and tried to leave , but she shook him off and walked out of the police station ahead of him .
Mrs.
Newton and Sylvia hurried after them .
Louis ! Come home with me ! Mrs.
Newton yanked Louis and shoved him into the car , slamming the door shut .
Sylvia quickly took the passenger seat .
Hope was left standing outside .
Louis snapped out of his daze .
Let me out ! 7/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points Im going home with my sister ! Mrs.
Newton coldly ordered the driver , Drive .
To the airport ! Exhausted from a night of drinking , his stomach and head pounding , Louis was too weak to resist without risking hurting Mrs.
Newton .
He could only press his face against the window , watching helplessly as Hope was left behind , standing alone on the roadside .
Her slender figure was like a sharp blade , piercing Louiss heart .
Mrs.
Newton , furious at his despondent state , yanked him back into his seat .
Look at yourself ! Who knows what kind of spell that wretched girl has cast on you ! Youve even turned your back on Sylvia ! When your father returns , well discuss 8/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points sending her away .
As for the issue with your fifth brother , its not urgent .
When the time comes , well find Hope again .
Shes so money hungry , shell surely agree to donate a kidney for a million .
Louis stared at his mother in disbelief .
I wont let you take my sisters kidney .
I was blind before , agreeing to bring Hope back as a spare .
But not anymore ! Hmph , its not up to you .
Hope would probably jump at the chance to sell her kidney for money ! Dont forget , your fifth brother is your own flesh and blood ! So is Hope ! If you want a kidney , take mine ! Slap ! Mrs.
Newtons hand struck Louiss face .
9/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted WassMM … + 5 Points Youve truly lost your mind ! The Newton family has invested so much imycoussince you were a child , grooming youtoobretthe heir .
All that money and effort wasaftsso you could throw yourself at thattungrateful wretch ! It was to make you a leadento elevate the Newton familys legacy !! Louis laughed bitterly .
A leader ? Sure , but also a money making machine for thee Newton family .
My second , third , fourth brothers … they all get to chase their dreamss , while Ive been burdened with the familys ambitions since I was young .
No one ever asked what I wanted .
In the past , he had been willing .
He loved his family , and their happiness was enough for him .
But now he realized , what did it matter if he was the high and mighty CEO of the 10/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points Newton Group ? What did it matter if he was worth billions ? What did it matter if he was a leader ? He couldnt even get Hope to call him brother .
Every moment was filled with regret and self reproach .
He longed for Hopes forgiveness , for a chance to make things right .
Mrs.
Newton was stunned .
She had never considered that Louis felt this way .
How could you be a money making machine ? Dont you see how harmonious our family is compared to others , where siblings fight over inheritance ? Yes , Mrs.
Newton suddenly remembered something .
Everything changed when Hope came back .
I must get rid of her ! 11/12 Chapter 43 : All She Wanted Was M … + 5 Points She pulled out her phone to contact Mr.
Newton , but Louis stopped her .
You dont need to drive her away .
Ill take her and leave .
Louis had made up his mind .
If Hope hated the Newton family so much , he would leave it too .
He believed that one day , she would forgive him .
