Chapter 266
Celena was not stupid. Sherah and Qemal usually would not bother visiting her unless they needed help. The fact that they came to look for her that day was certainly because they had something to ask of her. Otherwise, they would not be so friendly and agreeable.
"Mom, why exactly have you come to look for me? You can just tell me straight away. If it's anything that I can help with, I'll do it!" Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Sherah waited for Celena to ask her. Once Celena did, Sherah sat on the couch, buried her tearful face in her hands, and said, "Celena, you must help your brother! He got into a little trouble. He's still young. It's only normal to make some mistakes. You must not abandon him!"
Celena's expression became solemn in an instant. She asked with a frown, "Mom, quick, tell me what happened! Even though Qemal is only my half-brother, he is still my brother."
Celena still cared about her family. Even though Sherah and Qemal treated her badly, she still wanted to help since they already come to her.
Liam was worried that these two would bully Celena. That was why he sat on the other couch with Jovie in his arms and listened to their conversation silently. He sighed helplessly but said nothing.
"I knew that you wouldn't just abandon your brother like that!" Sherah quickly looked up at Celena. Besides having some redness in her eyes, she completely did not look like someone who just cried. Her acting was so terrible, but Celena simply could not tell.
Sherah explained, "It's about the contract for the materials that your brother signed with a company the other day. When the materials arrived, they were all problematic! These subpar materials were completely unusable!
"Qemal requested a refund, but they weren't willing to do so. He even brought out the contract and argued that those were the materials that were originally ordered. They pushed all responsibilities and blame on Qemal.
"If your grandfather found out about this, he would surely kill him!
"Celena, you have to help your brother! If your grandfather found out, then Qemal would be punished mercilessly! The collaboration with the Max Group is what Reginald values the most now."
Sherah told him the gist of the matter while crying.
Once she was done, she kicked Qemal, who was sitting next to her and doing nothing, and bellowed, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and beg on your knees!"
Of course, Qemal was reluctant. He already felt it was very difficult for him to come to Celena, let alone begging Celena on his knees to help him. She was someone he always looked down upon.
However, he also understood that he had no choice but to beg Celena at that moment. He bowed to fate and kneeled before Celena. With his head hung, he said in a deep voice, "Celena, please help me. You're quite valued in the family now. If you plead with Grandpa for me, he certainly would let me off the hook out of respect for you."
Qemal raised his head and was so anxious that his face turned red. He desperately said, "Celena, help me, please. I was tricked by them. I—"
Celena said nothing upon hearing all that. She suddenly looked very upset.
Sherah was afraid that Celena was hesitating since she did not say a word. Therefore, Sherah immediately sat next to Qemal and started to wail at the top of her lungs.
"Celena, you can't just leave your brother alone. He is the only son in our little family. Besides, he's your brother. Who else are you going to help, if not him? If anything were to happen to you, you would still need your brother to help you. Am I right?"
