Living With My Lady Boss romance Capítulo 95

Wilbur could not help but sigh.

Wilbur knew something was up from the moment he heard the man's initial shouting. That was why he did not attack immediately. Instead, he wanted to know what was going on before doing anything. Sure enough, his patience has paid off.

"Calm down. Tell me what happened and let me see if I can fix it for you. If you keep going like this, you might lose everything and end up in jail for the rest of your life," Wilbur said.

Tears streamed down the man's face, and he shook his head. "I've got no choice. There's nothing I can do."

"You might not be able to solve the problem, but someone else might. Come on now. Tell me what happened. I might have a solution, you know."

Perhaps the man really wanted to let it out. He started talking after Wilbur coaxed him.

"A year ago, I was scammed by Kenji Lilith. He made me lose up to ten million dollars in his casino, then persuaded me to take a loan from loan sharks. A year later, the interest racked up to about thirty million dollars and I had no way of paying it. They took over my company and kicked me out, so now I've got nothing left. My wife and kids left me, and I'm neck-deep in debt. I don't want to live anymore!"

The man broke into a gut-wrenching sob after that, one that tugged at everyone's heartstrings.

Wilbur shook his head as well. The man had been tricked into a death trap.

It was such a tragedy.

Just then, a police siren sounded from both sides of the bridge once more. In no time, about fifty officers had surrounded Wilbur and the man completely with their guns pointed at the man.

Wilbur looked around him and lowered his voice, "You're in a lot of danger right now. Get back and lean against this car."

The man was shocked. "What did you say?"

"Listen to me. I'm not gonna hurt you," Wilbur said, raising his arms as he slowly walked backward with the man in tow to lean against an SUV, during which the blade of the man's knife was still pointed at Wilbur's neck.

Wilbur was at a loss as well.

Stuff like this happened too often. These people had a whole team of specialized lawyers to plan for them and make full use of legal loopholes. It was, honestly, a pretty devastating situation.

The man seemed to grow increasingly angered, and the knife in his hands shook dangerously close to Wilbur's neck as he trembled with rage.

Anyone else would have been scared out of their wits by that.

Wilbur, however, was more than capable enough of taking the man down just like that, but he did not wish to do so.

The guy had it bad enough as it was. He needed all the help he could get.
