Chapter 159
Arya and Joshua returned to the village safely. The old couple of the Swift Family felt relieved.
When Arya came back, she told Mr. Swift her thoughts. "I want to go to the city to work. I should solve
this problem myself. Just like Joshua said, the boat can't be sold."
She knew that even if she went to W City, she couldn't earn 300,000 dollars in a few days, but she had
to try her best.
Madam Swift walked up to Arya and held her hand, "Even if you go to the city, how can you earn
300,000 dollars? We have contacted the buyer of the boat."
Mr. Swift told her that Arya promised to take care of Joshua in the future, so she was very grateful to
her.
After all, Joshua couldn't live on his own. Over the past month, Madam Swift felt that Arya was nice. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Arya lowered her head. "I got you into trouble."
Madam Swift pretended to be angry and raised her voice. "Don't say that. We're all family."
Arya pursed her lips and could not say anything, but she still felt sorry.
***
Two days later, Zack brought someone to get the money. Mr. Swift handed the money to Zack. "There's
fifty thousand dollars left. Give us some time. I'll make it up as soon as possible."
Zack frowned. 'They have raised 250,000 dollars?'
"I want it today. If you can't give it, give her to me."
As he spoke, he walked into the inner room. "Where is she?"
Mr. Swift hurriedly came up. "Please give me some time. I'll give it to you."
"F*ck off!"
Zack pushed Mr. Swift away. "Don't get in my way. I have to take this woman with me today."
Zack had checked the background of the Swift Family these days. It turned out that the woman was not
a relative of the Swift Family.
"Don't pretend to be nice. I know you just want that girl to marry your Joshua. That fool can never
match her."
Mr. Swift immediately denied it. "Don't talk nonsense."
At first, they had this idea.
When they got along with Arya, they knew that she was a kind girl.
And she also promised to take care of Joshua. Now they treated Arya as a real family member.
Zack curled his lips. No matter what the old couple thought, he would take Arya away today. Such a
beautiful woman could not be left to Joshua.
"Where is she?" Arya walked around the room but didn't find Arya. His eyes fell on Mr. Swift again.
"She's gone." Mr. Swift prayed in his heart that Arya did not come back at this time.
Zack didn't believe that Arya would leave. He walked up to Mr. Swift and kicked him. Mr. Swift was old.
Zack kicked him so hard that he couldn't even stand up.
Madam Swift came out of the kitchen with a knife and stroke toward Zack. Madam Swift was also old,
not as flexible as the young man. Zack easily dodged.
Zack was so angry that she dared to cut him with a knife.
He picked up a stick next to him and was about to hit her. Seeing this, Mr. Swift jumped over and
intercepted the attack with his back.
Now he really couldn't get up on the ground. Madam Swift was shocked and sat on the ground holding
Mr. Swift. Tears fell down. "Are you okay?"
"I'm not dead yet. Why are you crying?"
Mr. Swift reached out his old hands full of age spots and wiped Madam Swift's tears. He knew his
condition and he was fine now.
During this period, he felt that his health was getting worse and worse day by day. After these days, he
had spent almost all his energy. Zack was young and strong. His attacks had caused great harm to his
body.
"You'd better tell me where she is." With a stick in his hand, Zack knocked on the table and pointed at
the two elder persons.
"You are a monster. How could you attack an old man? Aren't you afraid of the punishment from God?"
Madam Swift stood up. "The person you're looking for has left. You can't find her here."
"Well, if there were really God's punishment, I would have been killed."
"Don't waste my time. Where is she?" Zack said impatiently, poking Mr. Swift on the ground with a stick.
"Otherwise, I'll hit you again. Be sensible so as not to suffer the pain of flesh and skin."
Madam Swift wanted to take away the stick with her hand, but her strength was not enough to move it.
Madam Swift was furious and grabbed the stick with her hand. "You will go to hell!"
"If you don't say, I'll kill him." Zack raised his voice and stabbed Mr. Swift harder with the stick.
Madam Swift couldn't bear to see Mr. Swift suffering. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zack.
"Please let him go."
Mr. Swift grabbed his wife and stopped her.
It was useless to beg him.
Madam Swift didn't listen and couldn't stand to see Mr. Swift being bullied like this.
"I was wrong. I shouldn't have scolded you. You should have mercy on my old man."
Mr. Swift grabbed his wife and said with difficulty, "Don't plead for me. I'll die sooner or later. No… No
need to beg him."
"You can't die. How can I live without you?" Madam Swift pounced on Mr. Swift and hugged him.
Zack got angry. He didn't get anything by torturing them for a long time. He stepped on Mr. Swift and
said, "Hurry up. Where is she?"
"Stop beating him. Please." Madam Swift held Mr. Swift tightly in her arms.
Zack kicked Mr. Swift again and again. Madam Swift couldn't stand to see This. "I'll tell you, please
stop."
Mr. Swift held Madam Swift's hand and said in a weak voice, "If you tell him, I will never forgive you."
