Chapter 184

"Matt? Are you there?" Mary asked as the call was connected.
Matt cursed in his heart, but he still replied reluctantly, "H—Hey, Mom, what’s up?"
"Oh thank God, you’re there. I was worried for a while since you haven’t called me," Mary sighed in relief. "What’s wrong, Son. Why haven’t you called me for almost a month now? Is there something wrong with your job?"
"It’s all fine, Mom," Matt replied, not wanting to tell his mother about his real situation. He wasn’t a renowned director who directed so many movies and TV shows. He was just a deadbeat who relied on his wife’s credit card.
"Are you sure it’s fine? Because you haven’t been sending me any money for a while," Mary said. "You know that my living cost is a lot right now, I need a lot of money to make sure that Harry has a good life."
Matt couldn’t help clicking his tongue annoyedly when his mother mentioned that useless bastard who lived with her now.
She had been infatuated with a young man in his early 20s who contributed nothing except being a parasite.
"Mom, why are you still keeping him in your home?! Don’t you realize that he doesn’t love you? He just wants you because you keep giving him money!"
