When Tyler received the call from Janet, he was happy, thinking she had repaid all his debts.
In his early years, Tyler was lured into a casino and became a gambling addict when he worked with the hooligans in the village
several years ago.
Later, he moved to another place to gamble, and his debts piled up over the years.
The debt collectors were after him like predators waiting to catch their prey.
Just as Tyler wondered what to do, he heard some people from his village tell him that his mother, whom he had abandoned
years ago, had a promising granddaughter.
They told him that she was working in the famous Larson Group and was the mistress of the company’s CEO.
His mother seemed to live a comfortable life because of her.
Tyler grew jealous; he felt life was unfair.
How could his mother live a good life when he was suffering? No wonder his mother hadn’t bothered to look for him.
It turned out that she lived a spectacular life and didn’t need him anymore.
The more Tyler thought about it, the angrier he became.
He had been hiding to escape from the debts, sleeping under the bridge along with beggars.

His life was no better than that of a stray dog.
Therefore, he decided to go back to his mother.
Hannah was softhearted.
If he fell on his feet and pretended to turn over a new leaf, she would forgive him in a heartbeat.
Moreover, Janet was wealthy now.
She was the CEO’s mistress and certainly wouldn’t be short of money.
His debt was just a drop in the bucket for Janet.

As expected, Janet had agreed to lend him fifty thousand dollars without much hesitation.
Fifty thousand dollars was just the tip of the iceberg among his gambling debts.
He only wanted to use it to test the water and see what Janet would do.
Fifty thousand dollars was far from enough to pay off his gambling debts that had accumulated over the years.
However, as Tyler continued to borrow money, to his surprise, Janet refused to lend him money and said she would find a way to
help him.
In fact, Tyler was surprised to find Janet could help him in the first place.
The casino consisted of all kinds of people, and only a few would have a say on things.
He couldn’t fathom how Janet could be so capable.

Later, after a lot of thinking, Tyler concluded that she would probably ask the CEO of the Larson Group for help.
That was how she would manage to rescue him from such a serious problem.
The Larson Group was one of the most reputed companies in the entire country.
Tyler felt it would be better if Janet could somehow make the casino write off his gambling debts.
Keeping all this in mind, Tyler decided to let Janet step in.
However, to his utter dismay, Janet had called and informed him that he had to repay the debts in installments.
Tyler’s heart sank with dejection.
He had been idling around all his life.
He was too lazy to work hard to pay off the debt with his meager salary.
"This gambling debt is too much." Tyler sighed.
"It will take me several years to pay it off in small installments.Since you have the ability to persuade the casino people to allow
me to pay off the debt in installments, why don’t you ask them to write off the entire debt?"

Tyler’s recklessness disgusted Janet.
"That’s impossible!" she snapped coldly, "A casino never allows anyone to pay in installments.I tried everything I could to pull a
few strings to help you and they finally agreed to make an exception.How could you expect them to write off the debts
completely?"
Janet wanted to hang up the phone right away.
Sensing Tyler was a notorious man, she warned, "Look, Tyler, I have done the best I can to help you.This is it.Don’t come to me
for money again.Find a serious job and repay all the debts without bothering Hannah."
With that, she hung up the phone.
