My Reincarnated Wife Is A Little Too Sweet novel Chapter 37

"Mom, what did you and dad about?" Amanda asked her mother as she helped her to sit up.

"Nothing. He had come here to condemn you and I wouldn't let that happen." Evelyn answered.

"I know. He already disowned me infront of the public. Now I don't feel anything for him. Even the resentment I had for him is gone. He is just like any other passerby in my life." Amanda said.

Although she had hated her father after waking up, but she still craved for the love and warmth that she had missed, hoping that one day they will reconcile and let bygones be bygones. He had crushed her hopes yesterday making Amanda wake up from her delusion.

To her, the dad she knew was no more.

"Ooh he did that. I just told him out of anger. I did not know that he will really have the guts to do." Evelyn said, feeling bad for her daughter. 

Maybe if she had not said that to her ex-husband, Amanda would still have a father.

"I'm sorry Amanda. I was just mad at him for treating us like some kind streetwalker. He is your father, he must know your character more than anyone else and yet he came here to question you. I just couldn't stand it... I couldn't." Evelyn's mood was off the roof.

Thinking it might harm her recovery, Amanda had no choice but to calm her down.

"Mom it is not your fault. You did what you had to do to protect your daughter and I'm grateful for that."

"You know the kind of people dad live with at home. I'm sure they have not gotten tired of tarnishing our reputation and dad believes them. How could you fight with them. Just let them be. Let them do whatever they want. Maybe they have forgotten that karma is a bi*ch. They will never escape their retribution. I will never let that happen." Amanda said. Her eyes were determined as if nothing could hold her back.

"Your father also said he will demolish our house. If you have time you should go and take a look." 

"Okay mom. You can rest now."

....

At exactly noon, Amanda received a bank message. Her account has just received five million dollars. She knew where it came from without even asking.

She called Richard right away.

"Hello, Vallery had deposited the money."

"Good. I thought that she had forgotten. I almost sent her a reminder." Richard answered from the other end of the phone.

"Since you are a mini-millionaire, do you want to treat me to dinner?" Richard asked.

"When are you getting off work?" Amanda asked.

"6PM!"

"Okay. I will pick you up."

"Okay." Richard hung up the phone feeling happy.

...

Vallery had gone to look for Jason at the company.

She was still mad at paying five million dollars to who knows who. She had tried figuring out the bank account but she was not successful. She could only gritt her teeth and send out the money.

She feared that if she delayed any second, then her scandal will be all over the internet.

"You should be resting at home. Why are you here?" Jason's voice was heard as soon as Vallery entered his office.

"I missed you brother Jase, so I came to see you." Val said, pretending to be mad.

"Does brother Jase not want to see me?" She asked moving towards Jason's desk.
