Chapter 621
Predictably, Yorick took the money and started gambling away. He won more than $30,000 the night before and spent half the amount to pay for a bunch of friends meals and drinks.
Maisie squinted. If he used that money to start a business, she would find someone to help him out in secret. It was great when people changed after making mistakes. She could have given him a chance because this uncle of hers had never been bad to her father and her.
But too bad, he just wouldn’t turn over a new leaf, so she couldn’t help him.
She sent a message to her bodyguard.
After Madam Vanderbilt found out, she angrily went to the rental Yorick was staying in.
“You told me that you didn’t have money, but you used the money on gambling and drinking!?”
Yorick smoked a cigarette on the couch. He had a hangover and just woke up after half a day had passed. He couldn’t care less about his mother’s questioning. “My friend lent me some money to gamble. So what if I won and used it for drinks?” “You’ve abandoned your mother and son. Are your friends more important now?” Madam Vanderbilt was almost getting a stroke.
Yorick dropped the cigarette on the floor, flattened it, and then stood up. “Yes, they are more important than you. You call yourself my mother, but what have you done so far? And Hector, you were the one who coddled him too much. Now you want me to take him back?”
He mocked, “I would rather not have you as a mother, and I could do without that useless son too!”
Madam Vanderbilt’s pupils shrank, and her fingers trembled. “W-What did you say?”
Yorick sat on the couch. “All my misfortunes were because of you. Ever since Dad died, I’ve kept quiet for a long time. I’m going to imagine that my mother is no longer around from now on. What happens to you and Hector will no longer be any of my business!”
Madam Vanderbilt shuddered and turned pale as a sheet. She never imagined that her own son would cut her off.
