At first, Yvonne was sending Harvey home in her Bentley. But there was a traffic jam on the way.
Hence, Harvey took his electric bike out of the trunk to ride home. But his electric bike broke down, and he fell into the drain. Now he was quite pathetic and awkward.
Harvey was about to take a bath and have a change of clothes. But Cecilia had seen him. She laughed coldly and said, “The person appeared as soon as we talked about him. Here comes the good-fornothing! Harvey, did you fall into the toilet? You stink!”
Harvey did not want to be bothered by her. He put the big plastic bag in his hand at the corner of the living room and was going to take a bath.
“Harvey, how bold of you to come home? Do you think that it’s a hotel here? Do you think that you can come and leave at your own wishes?”
At that moment, Lilian heard the noise. When she came out, her facial expression was unpleasant.
‘If it’s not because of this good-for-nothing, how could Mandy’s significant contribution be snatched away by Zack? It’s because of this jinx!
Xynthia had walked out of the bedroom too. She glared at Harvey and said, “Harvey, how could you be so dirty? Why didn’t you change your shoes when you came in? You even polluted our air! Do you still want to stay here? If not, just get lost!”.
Harvey looked at his mother-in-law and sister-inlaw calmly. He did not want to say anything. If he ever became infuriated because of them, he would have already been filled with deep wrath during the past three years.
At that moment, he did not want to talk about such nonsense. He walked toward Mandy. At first, he had a straight face. After he saw Mandy’s beautiful face, his heart softened. He said shyly, “Dear, didn’t you say that your company is in need of eight hundred thousand dollars, I…”
Cecilia sneered. “Even a useless husband starts to learn to care about his wife. Is that so?” Cecilia interrupted Harvey directly. “You’re not only a good-for-nothing, but you’re shameless too. You don’t even have some self-awareness. How could you bring up such a sore subject! The others’ husbands will certainly collect all the money needed when they know that their wives are in need of money even if they have to use up all of their properties. But look at you! You’re so poor that you couldn’t even take out a single dollar. How could you even bring that up? If I were you, I’d jump off the building from the third floor immediately. What is the meaning of living? What a useless man!”
Hearing how bad Cecilia scolded Harvey, Mandy became soft-hearted. She then said, “Celia, just drop it…”
“No matter what, it’s Harvey who rescued me when I was being seized by Don yesterday. I do feel something for him.”
“Mandy, you’re just too kind and nice! If I were you, I would have divorced him a long time ago!”
“He sleeps in the study for as long as he’s married to you. You both never even shared a bedroom. I just don’t know how you could stand facing this useless man every day. If I were you, I’d be disgusted even by taking a glance at him. Do you know that? How could you bear it?”
“Yes!” Angel echoed what Cecilia said beside her.“ Mandy, don’t tell me that you’re touched because he took your place as the hostage for a short while yesterday. Let me tell you. These bastards are wicked and cunning. Maybe he had conspired with Don beforehand just to fool you and to gain your affection through deception. If not, why would Don let go of him that easily?”
