Climbing Up to The Top Summit novel Chapter 167

"Please stop it, Mom! We need to thank Harvey since h e was the one who introduced me to Miss Xavier, which helped me get the investment," Mandy pleaded.

"Really?" Lilian exclaimed in surprise. She had always been worried about the investment, so she stopped talking about Harvey since he had helped them.

"Yes, Mom, let's get some rest now, alright? We'll discuss the other things after I settle everything with York Enterprise," Mandy said soothingly.

"Okay, we’ll take care of the important stuff first," Lilian agreed.

"The floor hasn't been mopped for days, get to it! You've been going out so often lately, do you even see this as your home?" Lilian sneered, glaring at Harvey.

"Alright, got it," Harvey replied as he was used to Lilian's attitude by now. He had been doing the chores for the past three years anyway, so it wasn't a big problem for him.

Mandy stared at Harvey contemplatively for a while, then went to take a shower.

After half an hour, Harvey's mobile phone rang. It was Mandy.

"Harvey, are you still mopping the floor? Are you tired? If you’re tired, you can... you can always come to

my room..." Mandy stammered.

"Honey, I'm not tired," Harvey interrupted before getting what Mandy meant.

Harvey immediately regretted what he said as he might lose the chance to sleep with Mandy for the first time.

He couldn't imagine when Mandy would make an offer like this again.

"Mandy, if I said I’m tired, can I rest?" Harvey asked shyly.

"Get lost!" Mandy scolded coldly before slamming the door.

Bam!

"Yeah, Mandy, we can't provide any help either!"

"You should do it on your own, Mandy!”

The crowd shook off the responsibility as none of them were capable of bearing the responsibility if the family went bankrupt.

"Mandy, I see you have a giant ring there. I heard your live-in husband got lucky last night and got a famous painting for only fifteen dollars. In my opinion, you guys should've just given the painting to the Yorks and not exchanged it for your diamond ring,” Quinn Zimmer sneered enviously. She didn't think that Mandy deserved such an expensive ring.

"Oh, that's right! Why don’t you give the ring to Miss Xavier? It might get us a contract!"

"Yeah, Mandy! Don't be stingy about something like this. Family first, remember?”

"Correct! You should focus on our problems first!"
