After My Childhood Sweetheart Went Bankrupt

Synopsis

Edward Brooks and I were childhood friends. When I found out his family had gone bankrupt, I rushed home to my parents, begging them to help Edward pay off his debts. But my mom had a condition. "I'll help Edward, but first, you need to tell him that it's our family that's bankrupt." It was a non-negotiable demand, so I had no choice but to go along with it. Edward was still out drinking with his friends when he heard the news. "Now that the Turner Family's bankrupt, I can finally make Sophie my girlfriend out in the open," Edward said. "Even the Turner Family went bankrupt? What's Charlotte showing off for? She'll be begging Edward for money, wagging her tail like a puppy soon enough," one of his friends sneered. Edward had no idea I was still on the line, and I heard every single word.
