"Additionally, according to the evidence and financial records provided by Mr. Charles, over the past five years, Mr. Charles has paid a total of USD 178,000 for Ms. Anna and her family, including Mr. George’s medical and living expenses, as well as Ms. Anna’s so-called project expenses."
"We request that the Lane family return this amount in full within seven working days of receiving this lawyer’s letter."
"What? 178,000 USD?" Laura screamed, "We never took that much from him! This is extortion!"
Attorney Quinn remained unmoved.
"We have detailed bank transfers, plus receipts and invoices. All evidence has already been submitted to the court."
"If you have objections to the amount, you may provide proof through legal channels."
"However, if the funds are not returned within the specified time, we will pursue further legal action, including freezing the Lane family's assets."
George was so terrified he nearly fell off the hospital bed.
He quickly grabbed my hand, pleading desperately.
"Charles, I know I was wrong. Please forgive us."
"My health is failing; if we lack money for treatment, I won’t survive!"
Laura also began crying.
"Brother-in-law, please, for my father’s sake, have mercy!"
