“Brother Jeff, count me in! Count me in!” the man eximed impulsively.


    Mrs. Lewis had remained silent until that moment, but her concern prompted her to speak up. “Jeff, I’ve seen many reports about online loan tforms with exorbitant interest rates on televisiontely. Those rates are genuinely rming. I think it’s best to avoid online loans unless it’s an absolutest resort,” she cautioned.


    Jeff was taken aback by Mrs. Lewis’s attempt to derail his ns. He responded, “Mrs. Lewis, I understand your concerns about the high interest rates of some online loan tforms. However, the ones operated by my friends are legitimate and trustworthy. Their rates are actually quite reasonable—almost negligible, in fact.”


    After a brief pause, Jeff continued, “Normally, I wouldn’t even consider this sort of thing. I don’t gain anything from it. But since we’ve all grown up together in the orphanage, I can’t just watch them suffer in poverty. I’m only trying to lend a helping hand.”


    William quickly interjected, “Brother Jeff, you don’t need to worry about anything else. Just rmend those online loan tforms to me. I’ll take out the loans and gather the money for you right away!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie, who had been quiet until now, turned to Jeff with curiosity. “Jeff, you mentioned you work for apany linked to the White family, but as far as I know, they aren’t involved in funding businesses.”


    Jeff’s expression shifted slightly as he responded, “Charlie, I’m not looking down on you, but the White family is powerful and has many business endeavors. You might not be aware of everything.”


    Charlie smiled, unfazed, and asked, “What’s the name of yourpany?”


    “It’s called Axel Insurance,” Jeff replied, pulling out his business card, which prominently disyed his position: ‘Investment Director’.


    Charlie couldn’t shake the feeling that the name Axel Insurance sounded familiar. After a moment of thought, he recalled—wasn’t this the samepany that had attempted to scam his mother-inw previously? The owner was Axel Jordan, and the notorious Don Albert backed thepany.<fna12d> This update is avable on Find1Novel</fna12d>


    Axel was known for his fraudulent practices, cheating investors out of their money. Investors who suffered heavy losses found it futile to confront him, as Don Albert’s influence shielded Axel from repercussions.


    To his surprise, Jeff was working for Axel’spany!


    Charlie remembered that when he had previously gone to collect debts for his mother-inw, Jeff hadn’t been around. If Jeff had encountered him then, he would likely be more humble today.


    Contemting this, Charlie looked at Jeff and asked, “Isn’t Axel Jordan the boss of yourpany? He’s not part of the White family! Are you just making things up?”


    Jeff hadn’t anticipated that Charlie would be aware of hispany or even the name of his boss. Panic set in.


    If Charlie knew of hispany, he probably also knew its unsavory reputation. This put Jeff in a tight spot, as it would reveal that he had been misleading William all along.


    As Jeff grappled with how to defend himself, William shot a re at Charlie, rebuking him, “Charlie, what’s your point? Brother Jeff is trying to help us learn how to make some money. Why are you challenging him? Are you upset that he’s not including you in his investment?”


    Surprised, Charlie regarded William with disdain. This misguided individualcked the education and judgment to see right from wrong. Charlie was merely trying to offer a warning, yet William was blind to it.


    In light of this, Charlie decided to let him proceed as he wished. “Sorry, maybe I misremembered,” he said to Jeff, dismissing the conversation.<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
