Chapter 54: I'm Pregnant
The creditor pointed a gun at Fiona's head, although it was just a bluff, but he still refused to give up the benefits he had won, and in the face of a handful of change money taken out by Fiona and others, he stared and said, "How much is this?"
Fiona said, "That's all we have now!, but we, the Gallaghers, are principled, and we will pay our debts......
Before she could finish speaking, Lip stepped forward and grabbed her and said to her, "You take Liam first, and Debbie and Carl go first, and I'll solve the matter here!"
Fiona said, "What can you do?"
Lip didn't answer her, but tilted his head towards the door.
Fiona didn't say anything more, hugged Liam, called Debbie, Carl, and Karen, and walked out together, and Ian chose to stay for himself.
Frank also wanted to go along, but was stopped by Lip.
The creditor didn't want to make a big deal out of it, and the owner Frank stayed here, as well as Lip and Ian, who obviously had something to say, so he didn't embarrass Fiona and let them go.
When Lip walked over and closed the door, the creditor put the shotgun on his shoulder, put on a tough stance, and said, "How do you want to solve this matter?"
Lip smiled and said, "I want to state first, although Frank is the father of several of us, he has now voluntarily given up our custody, so legally, we have nothing to do with him anymore!"
"You forced Liam to be mortgaged today, we could have called the police, but we didn't do it, but chose to come directly to you, from which you can see our sincerity!"
"Today's matter, I don't want to have a second time, and at that time, whether we will be so sincere, it's hard to say!"
"I'll give you two choices now, first, I have two thousand dollars in my hand now, cash, I can give it to you now, and then this time, even if it's over!"
"If you don't think the money is too much, you can choose the second option, that is, Frank will find a way to repay your money by himself! But his business has nothing to do with us, don't hope that we can help him pay back!"
"Which one do you choose?"
The face of the creditor is cloudy.
The difference between $2,000 and $10,000 is too big, and the creditor is indeed a little unwilling to take only $2,000.
However, although he didn't have much contact with Frank, he had seen a lot of creditors like Frank, and knew that he couldn't get $10,000 in a short period of time no matter what.
It is more likely that because of this 10,000 dollars, they ran away, leaving the creditor with nothing.
The two thousand dollars that can be obtained now are the same as the ten thousand dollars spent in the mirror, and the creditor did not hesitate for too long, "Give me the money, you can get out!"
Lip took out the money that he had prepared after knowing about Frank from his pocket, handed it to the creditor, and without looking at Frank, who was full of joy, turned around and took Ian, and opened the door and went out.
Frank hurriedly followed, leaned over to Lip with a shy face, and said to him with a smile, "Lip, you really deserve to be my good son, and your performance just now is really amazing!"
"By the way, how did you get so much money? There is a good way to make money, don't forget my father!"
Lip stopped going downstairs, looked at Frank coldly, and said to him, "You don't think that I paid you this money for free!"
"What do you want? I don't have the money to pay off my gambling debts, and I don't have the money to pay you back!" said Frank triumphantly.
"The creditor is impatient, waiting for you to pay in installments, but I don't lack this patience, today's money will be deducted from your disability allowance and Aunt Jinji's social security payment!" Lip said.
"Don't worry, I don't want your interest! Your disability allowance, plus Aunt Jinji's social security, can pay back this money in two months!"
"Oh! no! that's my money!" Frank said, his face immediately changed.
"For the next two months, it's my money!" Lip didn't move at all, and continued to say coldly, "In addition, I warn you, you don't have our custody now, it's better not to have a second time for something like today, and don't blame me for being unkind when the time comes!"
Leaning closer to Frank's ear, he whispered to him, "If you don't accept it, you can try to test the limits of my patience!
Leaving Frank, Lip and Ian behind in a daze, they walked away.
Walking out of the apartment building, Fiona and the others were waiting on the side of the road, and when they saw Lip and Ian coming out, they hurriedly greeted them and asked, "How is it?"
Lip smiled and said, "It's settled!don't worry!" he said, reaching out and squeezing Liam's little face, making him grin.
Debbie whispered to Lip, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let Frank take Liam away. ”
Lip flicked his hand on her head and said to him with a smile, "You should say I'm sorry, but not to us, but to Liam!"
"I know that you and Carl still have good fantasies about Frank, hoping that he can be a responsible father again, but I tell you from my own experience that you will only be disappointed in the end!"
"I know that you may not be able to listen to this now, don't worry, I won't nag you every day like Fiona, I just hope you two can remember one thing, if Frank wants to get close to Liam in the future, he must tell me and Fiona as soon as possible!"
"You all have mobile phones now, it's easy to connect, can you do that?"
Debbie and Carl hurriedly nodded and promised, "Yes!"
The siblings walked home together, Lip dragged at the back, watching Fiona hold Liam, Debbie and Carl standing on both sides, teasing Liam together, and Ian followed behind them, interjecting from time to time, looking like a brother and brother, and the corners of his mouth were unconsciously smiling.
Karen had been following ahead, but she walked, slowed down, and landed beside Lip.
Lip turned her head to look at her, and her face was still so beautiful in the dim street lights, so that anyone who saw her for the first time couldn't help but have their hearts beat faster.
Lip has now passed the stage of facing Karen and the deer in his heart is chaotic, and his heart is calm at the moment.
After the breakup, the two people who had become strangers got back together, Karen was a girl, embarrassed to speak first, Lip spoke first to break the embarrassment and asked, "How are you lately?"
"I'm pregnant!" Karen said.
"Oh!" Lip asked, touching the bridge of his nose, "Should I congratulate you, or should I ......?"
