Return Of The Prodigy
Return of the Prodigy Chapter 129

Amanda was stunned, and she started cursing, "Can you stop bragging for a moment? This is not a matter that can be solved with just a few words! After all, who the hell do you think you are? "You're just a live-in son-in-law, so stop carrying yourself with such arrogance! Bah, you're a family of ungrateful bastards. Do you want me to apologize? Don't even think about it!" Gemma did not mind Amanda's cursing and asked, "Adam, can you really help Riya?"

Adam nodded. "It's just a small entertainment company, and they aren't even comparable to Ocean Group. I just need a phone call to deal with them." Having learned from her past experiences, Gemma did not doubt Adam this time. "That's great! You should make the call now so that we can help Riya." However, Adam shook his head. "No, she has to apologize first."

Gemma looked at Adam with a complicated expression. "Adam, no matter what, she's still my sister."

Adam did not give in. "Mom, you care about her a lot, but does she care about you the same way?

"You owe her nothing, yet she keeps cussing at you. Is this the attitude she should have while asking someone for help?

"Don't forget that they took money from Daniel and made a mess before Hartley Group, slandering Katie in front of the media. You were kind enough not to hold them accountable for what they did, but they didn't appreciate the kindness, it seems." Gemma did not know how to reply; she knew that Adam was speaking the truth. Moreover, he was doing all this for her sake, so she found it improper to refuse his kind intentions.

"Amanda, why don't you take a step back and apologize for Riya's sake?"

Amanda said with a sneer, "Do you think this useless bum can make me do his bidding?

"You know what, I know you two are trying to deceive me. If you want to help Riya, fork out the cash already. Otherwise, I'll stay in your house and won't leave until you give in!" Gemma's lips quivered in anger, but she kept silent.

Adam said coldly, "Is this your plan? Too bad that no one here has time to waste. Mom, let's go to a hotel."

Amanda's expression changed. Gemma was her last hope, and if she did not help her, there would be no one left to save Riya.

For her daughter, Amanda gritted her teeth and said, "Didn't you say that you could save Riya with just a phone call? Make the call now. I want to see if you can really deal with this matter! "If you can save my daughter, I'll kneel and apologize to my sister." Then, she quickly added, "But if you fail, you'll have to hand over one million dollars!"

Adam sneered, "Fine, what company did your daughter work for?"

Amanda thought for a moment and took out her phone, giving Riya a call. A few seconds later, the call went through. "Riya, what was the name of your company?"

Riya asked worriedly, "Mom, were you able to gather the money? Tomorrow is the last day."

Amanda replied, "Don't worry, I'm looking for someone to help you out."

Riya was delighted. "Is that so? Mom, who is it? Tell them to make haste!"

Amanda glanced at Adam and said with a guilty conscience, "It's Katie's husband, that good-for-nothing."

Riya was dumbfounded. She screamed at her mother, "Mom, have you gone mad? Why did you go looking for him? How can he even help me?"

Amanda explained, "Riya, stay calm. Let him try first. He said that if it doesn't work, he'll lend me one million dollars."

"Bah, and you believed him? Have you forgotten that he's a madman? You're really useless! You couldn't do something so simple despite all the time you had!"

In a fit of rage, Riya hung up the call.

Amanda concealed her embarrassment and barked, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and help my daughter! I really want to see if you were just bragging or if you can save her for real!" Adam said with a sneer, "Let me ask you again, what's the name of the company?"

Amanda was dumbfounded. Riya had not replied to her question just now.

"I'll call her again..."

Riya picked up the call and said impatiently, "You're really annoying. Why do you keep calling me again and again? Try to find a way to borrow the money!"

Amanda whispered, "Riya, what was the name of the company you worked for?"

"Do you really believe that guy? Whatever! The company is called Live Entertainment Inc. Let's see what he can do!"

Riya hung up yet again.

Amanda looked at Adam and growled, "You know the name now. Hurry up and help her!"

Gemma looked at Adam expectantly. Will he be able to do it again?

Adam sighed. If not for Gemma, he would not have bothered to help Amanda and her daughter. The two were as arrogant as ever and had not learned anything from the previous episode. They deserved no pity. Adam called Black Dragon and said, "Look into a company named Live Entertainment Inc. They're suspected of luring young talents and forcing them into producing erotic content. Shut them down." Black Dragon nodded and said, "I'll do it right away."

Around ten minutes later, Amanda's phone rang.

"Mom, it's me. I'm finally free!" Riya's excited voice came from the other end.

Amanda was stunned. She looked at Adam with an expression of disbelief.

Did he really set Riya free with a call? How was he able to do it?

Adam said, "I've helped your daughter, so it's time for you to apologize to my mother-in-law."

Amanda's face flushed red. She looked at her sister in embarrassment, whispering, "Gemma, I'm sorry."

Gemma sighed. "Don't worry, what matters is that Riya is safe."

Then, she turned to look at Adam. He was able to do it again... Just who is he?

For the first time, Gemma had become curious about Adam's identity.

Adam snorted and said, "Didn't you say that you would kneel?

Amanda glared at him, mumbling, "I'm your aunt! You should respect your elders."

Adam narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you trying to go back on your word?"

Amanda's face was burning with shame, but she could not bring herself to put down her pride. "It's none of your business how I apologize to my sister! "Gemma, do you really want me to kneel before you and beg you?"

Before Gemma could even reply, Amanda continued, "My dear sister, I knew you wouldn't ever ask that of me."

Gemma stood there with her mouth agape, unsure as to what to say.

Amanda got up and said, "Since Riya is fine, I'll take my leave."

Then, she left the room in a hurry, without even thanking them.

Half an hour later, Amanda reunited with her daughter. She could not help but ask, "Riya, how did that guy save you? Are you no longer under contract?" Riya said in surprise, "What does that have to do with him? I was just lucky that the police came and shut the company down."

Amanda was dumbfounded. "The police? Wasn't it that guy who saved you?"

Riya rolled her eyes as she said, "Mom, you should pay more attention. That guy tricked you."

Amanda flew into a rage. "That bastard! I can't believe he wanted me to kneel and apologize to my sister.

"I was lucky that I didn't listen to him, or I would've looked like a fool. I'll make them pay for insulting me like this!"

Riya said, "Mom, calm down. I just regained my freedom. I'm going to take a bath and eat something first.

"It'll be Grandpa's 80th birthday soon, and Katie's family should also attend the party. You can settle the score then."

Amanda ground her teeth and said, "I'll make them pay for what they did!

"There's also that one million dollars that he agreed to give us. We have to get it out of him. If we can get all that money, you won't need to work anymore."
