“Ha! You haven’t even tried anything, and yet you’re telling us that you’re doing your best?”“Is this what your help is supposed to look like?”Aunt Anderson laughed coldly.“If we weren’t relatives in the first place, do you think you have the right to help Nova?”“Besides, I’m from the government!”“I’m already begging you the best I can. I showed you respect, but you people just won’t accept it!”“You’re shameless!”Lilian froze; this was her first time meeting someone more unreasonable than her.She was completely furious, and gritted her teeth.“You wench! You’re saying that we should be honored to help you?!”“Father, Mother…”Mandy couldn’t help but rub her forehead after seeing that a fight was about to break out.“Maybe you should just help Aunt Anderson, Harvey,” she said after instinctively looking at Harvey.She remembered that Harvey brought out Wes’s personal card at the bank just now.This meant that he had connections with Wes.Judging from Harvey’s atti
Lilian didn’t know where Harvey picked the card up from…She instinctively took a glance, and was immediately shocked.“That’s right! That’s Wes’s card! Only people he’s friends with can have that!”“Heh, heh! Wes’s card?”Aunt Anderson got even more furious after hearing those words.“If your live-in son-in-law can get Wes’s card, then I should be able to get the Golden Sands’ first-in-command’s card!”“You people have connections with the Jean family—you’re basically rich for being the head of the ninth branch! How did you get so shameless after that?”“Not only do you keep spouting nonsense, but you’re even using such a lame reason to sugarcoat everything!”“You disappoint me!”“If you hate us, just spit it out! We won’t show up ever again! Are you happy?!”Aunt Anderson was seething with rage, and recalled the gift she had brought from a stall.She felt that she needed to take the purple teapot on the table away to recuperate from her loss.Lilian and Simon’s bodies wer
Nova felt very proud of herself. After all, Archa Corporation was being ridiculously generous to give her such a high salary!Judging from the salary, it wouldn’t be hard for her to get fifty thousand dollars per year!Aunt Anderson was still in disbelief.“Is that call really from Archa Corporation? There’s no mistake, right?”“Mmm. I’m sure of it! I met the manager before, too. She sounds exactly the same!”Nova’s pompous expression was blatant.“Those people really do have a good eye after all!”Mandy glanced at Harvey, a profound expression on her face.She didn’t think that Harvey had such a good relationship with Archa Corporation.A simple call was enough to deal with the entire situation.‘It’s not because of Kairi, is it?’She could barely hear the voice of a woman on Harvey’s phone before. There were only so many who had the company’s respect in Golden Sands, after all.Harvey chuckled bitterly upon sensing a spark of jealousy in the air.He couldn’t just say t
“You belong to the ninth branch! Wes has no respect for you people!”“What can a live-in son-in-law even do at this point? What kind of respect can he get?”“You don’t even know how to bluff!”Naturally, Aunt Anderson didn’t believe that Harvey actually helped with the situation.“You…”Lilian was shaking with rage upon seeing Aunt Anderson turn her back as soon as she got what she wanted.She didn’t actually believe that Harvey actually did this, but she couldn’t help but speak up.“Harvey! Tell her that you did it!”Naturally, she knew Nova had no right to be in Zimmer Enterprise with her meager abilities, let alone a place like Archa Corporation.That was why she thought that maybe Harvey and Wes knew each other.With everything that had happened in Flutwell, Lilian was sure Harvey managed to get support from some prominent figure.She disdained Harvey, but she didn’t want Aunt Anderson to take all the credit and trample all over her either.After seeing Mandy’s horrible
The night was destined to be busy. Lilian’s screams could occasionally be heard while she was gritting her teeth. Nobody was able to get any rest because of it.The next day, early in the morning. Harvey had a change of clothes as he was going to meet up with Kairi to talk about his geomancy shop.As soon as he got outside, his phone rang.Harvey picked up the call; Arlet’s shy voice could be heard.“Punk…”“Are you looking for a beating again?” Harvey calmly said.Arlet instinctively tensed up after hearing Harvey’s stern tone.“Do you have time?” she asked after scoffing coldly.“No. I’m looking for a shop here,” Harvey replied.“I have all sorts of those anyway…”Arlet was speechless.“Just tell me what you’re looking for! I’ll get so many shops to fit your taste, to the point you’d vomit.”“It’s fine. I’ll look for my own.”Harvey declined immediately.“Honestly! You’re turning your back on me after I did everything you wanted yesterday?”Arlet was dumbstruck.Harve
Harvey froze after seeing the mother and daughter pair.Nova should’ve been at work already, so why was she at the main hall?Right as Harvey walked in, Aunt Anderson was waving her phone with a righteous look.“You’re the manager of the personnel department, right?”“I’m Nova’s mother!”“She’s the talent you offered thousands of dollars to work for you, Nova Anderson!”“I’m so sorry! The entire family went to celebrate last night. We forgot to set an alarm after we drank so much!”“Please give Nova a pass! She’s a true talent, after all!”Harvey was completely speechless; the family was filled with idiots after all.They barely managed to work in Archa Corporation, yet they came this late…‘Do they actually think that they’re capable?’“Of course, you don’t have to worry!”“My daughter will never ditch work since she said that she wants to be here!”Aunt Anderson’s prideful expression was evident to everyone.“Right! Now that we’re here, you should at least welcome us, r
Aunt Anderson stood up furiously and stormed toward Harvey.“Why are you even here?”“Did your damn mother-in-law send you to follow us?”“Looks like the rumors were true! Your family’s about to go bankrupt, huh?”“How dare you try to steal our limelight!”Naturally, Aunt Anderson disdained the Zimmer family utterly.‘They didn’t even lend a hand when I needed them to, and now, they’re getting their live-in son-in-law to cling to my daughter when she has a bright future ahead of her?’‘What a joke!’“Leave! Leave right now!”Aunt Anderson was screaming in anger.“You won’t get a damn job here!”“Do you even know what this place is?!”“Without a proper educational background, you don’t even have the right to clean the toilets here!”“Do you think everyone’s just as talented as my daughter or something?”Harvey ignored the crazy woman in front of him. This was just too embarrassing.After seeing Harvey remain silent, Nova raised her beautiful face.“You hear that, Harvey?
The front desk lady was filled with disdain.“This is a big office building, mister. We have manners here.”“Do you know what’ll happen to you if you keep causing trouble like this?”A few security guards walked over, glaring coldly at Harvey.Meanwhile, he glanced calmly at the Rolex watch on his wrist.“Two minutes…”“Stop pretending already!” Nova yelled, laughing coldly right after.“How dare you order Ms. Pagan to come down here?”“Who do you think you are?!”“Even the prince of the Patel family or the eldest young master of the John family has no right to do this! Do you understand?!”Aunt Anderson cackled coldly, as if she had seen through Harvey.“You’re just trying to show off in front of us to flaunt your strength, aren’t you?”“Have you thought of the consequences of doing such a thing?”“You’ll suffer a horrible death if Ms. Pagan actually comes for you!”“Let me warn you! You should just leave before you embarrass yourself too much.”“You might just drag us
