Alimony
Judging from her voice, the female seemed to be around Whitney’s age. Since she was surprised to
hear a female voice coming from the other side of the phone, Whitney’s head went blank as she
instantly hung up the call.
Right after that, tears started rolling down her cheeks. She broke down and sobbed like a child as she
covered her mouth with her hands.
She didn’t know how she should face him after putting him through so much, and she never thought
that he’d eventually meet someone else after so many years. Her eyes were filled with sorrow as she
bit her lips and whimpered. Alas, she had brought this upon herself!
Meanwhile, in the Lane Family, Emily was puzzled as she looked at Douglas’ phone. His phone had
been set to block calls from unknown numbers. However, the caller’s number wasn’t saved, but the call
could still go through.
After Douglas came out of the bathroom, he saw Emily holding his phone. He dried his hair and asked,
“What’s wrong?”
When she heard that, Emily pulled her gaze away from the phone and responded, “Someone called
you just now, but the number wasn’t saved in your contacts. The call ended after I answered the phone.
It just seemed odd.”
Douglas furrowed his brows when he heard that the number wasn’t in his contacts, but he
subsequently put on a facade and remained calm.
When he looked at the phone number, his gaze darkened. “Don’t worry about it. It’s just someone I’ve
known from before.”
He left the phone on the bed after that.
Emily nodded and didn’t probe further. She took his towel from him and dried his wet hair while saying
gently, “You should blow dry your hair. Otherwise, you’d get a headache if you sleep with damp hair.”
Douglas merely nodded.
…
While Colton was working the next day, he received a notification about a transaction from his bank
account. As he read the notification, he realized that three billion had been stolen from his account. The
hacker left him a message that read, ‘You ignorant a*shole!’
Colton was exasperated since the hacker not only stole his money but even chastised him too.
Although he found it funny, he was furious at the same time.
He gathered the programmers of this company to find the hacker’s address, for he wanted to know who
was that brash to even dare pull something on him. However, the programmers couldn’t figure out the
hacker’s IP address.
At the same time, Hayden was smirking with a gleam in his eyes as he tapped on the keyboard.
He scoffed, thinking that Colton had brought it upon himself since he dismissed his mother from work.
As such, he wanted to teach that man a lesson.
As he looked at the additional three billion in his bank account, Hayden didn’t feel guilty at all. Instead,
he thought that it was the alimony that his mother deserved since Colton never paid her a single cent.
While Nicole was at home, she received a call from a director of Gardner Corporation.
She wasn’t surprised to get the call. As she smiled, she asked, “How may I help you?”
Since the board of directors hoped that she would take responsibility for the issue that had happened,
they tried to be friendly with her. “After some careful consideration, the management feels that the
issue with Aimee International should be handled with care.”
They were trying to sound righteous, but Nicole knew what they were scheming; they merely wanted to
get someone to carry the blame. “I see. Since I’ve left Gardner Corporation, it has nothing to do with
me anymore. You will have to sort it out yourselves,” she replied nonchalantly.
When he heard that Nicole didn’t want to take responsibility for it, he got anxious and said, “This
problem happened because of your negligence. No matter what, you’ll have to assume responsibility
instead of pushing it away.”
Triggered by how rude they were, Nicole replied, “Please watch your words. I’m not the irresponsible
one here, you know. You were the ones who suggested the termination of my employment.”
