Chapter 224

"Okay, Son, go and do it for me. Try to get as much as you can. If possible, continue blackmailing her until we get about ten grand a month! We can split the money in half!"
"Got it, Mom. I’ll try to get as much money as possible. But promise me that you will still have enough for yourself. Don’t give everything to Harry. That useless bastard will keep on leeching on our hard-earned money!" Matt scolded his mother, who had been blinded by love.
"I—I will, Matt. Don’t worry. I will try to stop giving too much. I also need to live..." Mary promised though both of them knew that she would break that promise the moment Harry returned to her and asked for more.
Matt sighed and ended the call.
Beep.

Mary grinned as she stared at the newspaper clipping. She took it out of the frame and took a close-up picture, making sure it wasn’t blurry, so everyone who saw the picture could read the news.
"I’m sorry that things have come down to this, Hilda," Mary murmured. "But this is all of your daughter’s fault. She’s too snobby. She looked down on my son as if he’s a worthless man, even though he has been kind enough to stay with a barren woman like her."
"So what if he cheated? He cheated because he wanted a baby! Do you think my son doesn’t deserve to be happy after all of his sacrifices? He’s handsome. He deserves so much better than Kate!" Mary yelled. "So if you want to pin the blame, pin it all on Kate. Your first daughter is truly a disgusting skank."
"She is arrogant, disobedient to her husband, and unable to provide for him when he’s at his lowest. So ungrateful!"
