“Don?”
Harvey was stunned for a moment. He then smiled, ‘This guy is just a dog raised by the York Enterprise. It was only a matter of time before he got kicked out.’
“Mother, I won’t get a divorce. Even if we are getting a divorce, this is none of your business. I hope you don’t interfere in our affair.” Harvey laughed and said this sentence before riding on his beloved electric bike and left.
“Harvey, you’re nothing!” Lilian shuddered with anger. She had almost driven over Harvey with her car. However, she could only suppress her anger and quickly left after seeing a crowd surrounding them.

Mandy walked to the front desk of the company during after-hours.
She then saw two girls laughing while saying something and many employees were watching.
“Miss Zimmer’s husband is a loser. He said that he would give her roses from Prague. How dare he say that? Didn’t he look at himself in the mirror? Not to mention that he rode an electric bike, even his slippers were broken. A guy like him should go and beg for food instead…”
“Yes, I don’t know why Miss Zimmer would find such a loser!”
“If he’s not a loser, he would not be a live-in son-in-law!”
“If it were me, I would have divorced him long ago…”
“There are so many people who are wooing Miss Zimmer out there…”
Mandy was speechless.
“You…” Mandy bit her red lips and her face was ruddy as if she had gotten a fever when she heard these comments. She was so embarrassed.
“Miss Zimmer…” The two girls at the front desk looked terrified when they noticed Mandy.
“Miss Zimmer, we are just talking nonsense. Please don’t get angry…”
“Shut up!” Mandy yelled as her body slightly trembled.
Her eyes were red and she was about to cry. Why would she have such a useless husband?
Others’ husbands were either business elites or from wealthy families. However, her husband was a good-for-nothing live-in son-in-law. Not only could he not protect her, he always made her a disgrace in front of other people.
At this moment, the phone at the front desk rang. The terrified girl answered the phone and said softly, “Miss Zimmer, the security said that a logistics company has sent you a truckload of goods. Should we let them in?”
“For me?” Mandy was taken aback for a moment. She did not buy anything, but she nodded anyway.
Soon, she saw a handsome and elite-like man wearing a suit walking in.
He said respectfully, “Are you, Miss Zimmer? This is the global express delivery service undertaken by our company. This is delivered from Prague. Please sign for it.”
“Prague?!” Mandy finished signing with a surprised look. As the handsome guy waved his hand, a few porters cautiously carried an exquisite high-end wooden box and placed it in the lobby.
The top of the box was studded with shiny crystals that were dazzling under the light.
All the employees’ eyes were wide open.
“Wow! Is this from Prague?”
“And this box is so exquisite, what’s in it?”
“Miss Zimmer, can you please open it and let us have a look?”
There were mostly female employees in advertising companies. At this moment, all the employees were anticipating it with starry eyes.
