At the Zimmers. Lilian Yates was sitting in Mandy Zimmer’s bedroom, looking at the debit card in her hand happily. Harvey York gave that card to her just now. Besides, Harvey had asked the finance department of his office to transfer a few thousand dollars into that debit card every month.
As Lilian rubbed the debit card in her hand, she advised Mandy, “Mandy, I’m sure you understand what Senior Zimmer meant today. He won’t ask you to divorce Harvey for the time being, but he won’t indulge in Harvey and keep him behaving like this!”
“He’s your man, and you need to discipline him well. I feel that he’s acting strange recently. Did he get a lot of money from his classmate’s company? If that’s the case, you must think of a way to gain the money. Remember one thing. Men will turn bad as long as they’ve money!”
There was a faint crease between Mandy’s beautiful eyebrows. She then said, “Mom, I’ll handle my own affairs well.”
“Listen to me. I’m concerned about you. Why don’t you think about this? Although you’re now the finance manager of Zimmer Enterprise and the project manager of the commercial centre, the problem is that you still have a CEO and a vice CEO as your superiors. If you’re disobedient, Senior Zimmer will have a lot of ways to snatch away your power. Don’t ruin your future prospects just because of a worthless sack of trash!”
“Men should be suppressed. You should not let them have the money. Why don’t you think about how it was in the past? When he washed the bathroom and served the water for washing my feet, we didn’t have so much trouble back then.”
Lilian sighed with feelings. ‘How obedient Harvey was during those days! He did all those things without complaints. Besides, his status was lesser than a dog.’
But since he went to work and earned some money, he changed. Lilian was rather unused to that.
She always disliked that live-in son-in-law because of the fact that he was just a worthless trash. But when he became slightly capable, she was unused to that too. She did feel contradicted herself.
“Then do you mean to say that we should just forget about the past incident and let it go?” Mandy frowned slightly.
“No, it’s not that we let it go just like that, but we can just let it go. However, the prerequisite is that we need to get every penny out of him, and make him penniless. Then, it’ll be much more convenient to get rid of him in the future!” Lilian smiled and said. “Remember, once you get the money, give them to me so that I can keep them for you. I’m doing this for your sake.”
Mandy appeared gloomy because of the deep dissatisfaction. It never occurred to her that things would turn out like that after they went to meet Senior Zimmer. Not only did Lilian disagree to the divorce, she wanted Mandy to get all of Harvey’s money.
‘But how could Harvey own so much money?’
‘Even if he does indeed have so much money, it doesn’t concern me. I can’t bring myself to do such a shameless thing.’
“Mom, I’m not so shameless!” Mandy gnashed her teeth and said.
“Is this something which concerns your sense of dignity? Besides, isn’t it reasonable and righteous if you ask him to give up his money to you? This worthless piece of trash has been living and eating for free in the Zimmers for three years. Now, he’s become slightly capable. How could he want to act smug and arrogant because of that? He still has to do whatever I tell him!” Lilian was filled with disdain. She thought that Harvey had no status at all.
