The way Steve spoke sounded like a challenge in the man's ears. The man perceived Steve's inquiry about Adaline's debt as an act of insolence and doubted Steve's capability to pay it off."Hey, do you even know how much debt you're supposed to pay?" The man asked, a serious expression etched on his face."That's why I'm asking, are you dim or something?" Steve Hart felt disgusted by the man's behavior.The man smirked and promptly displayed a sheet of paper containing Adaline's debt amount. "Total debt with interest is $150,000. You can see it here."Steve scrutinized the man, firmly believing his mother wouldn't dare accumulate such an amount of debt."Don't joke around. Do you think I'm an idiot or something?" Steve Hart felt angered by the man trying to take advantage of him.With a sneering smile, the man said, "The actual debt is only $10,000; the rest is interest that accrued over three years of delay.""This is extortion!" Steve Hart's tone rose."Extortion? Blame your mother f
Steve Hart woke up in his room one morning, opting to stay there as he wanted to continue caring for his mother.He emerged from his room, searching for his mother. Not finding her there, he checked around the house."Mom, where are you?" Steve Hart worriedly called out as his mother was nowhere to be found.Intending to look for her outside, he spotted her in the yard, conversing with two middle-aged women."Mom, didn't I ask you to focus on resting first?" Steve Hart walked up to his mother.Adeline Hart smiled warmly upon seeing Steve awake. "I'm fine, no need to worry too much, my son."The two middle-aged women chatting with Adaline immediately cast inquisitive looks at Steve Hart."Is this your son, Adaline?" One of them asked.Adaline Hart nodded with a smile, confirming the woman's question."Oh, who would have thought he's grown this much?"Recognizing them as close neighbors, Steve Hart smiled, trying to be amicable with both of them."Where have you been all this time? It m
Upon Steve Hart's refusal, the neighbour who offered Steve a job said, "Adaline, you don't seem to have raised your son properly to be this ungrateful."Adaline guiltily said, "Madam, please forgive my son. Steve must have his reasons for refusing your help.""Reason? He must just be embarrassed that he'd have to be a service clerk if he accepted the offer." Another neighbor chimed in.Steve Hart tried to ignore it, he was more worried about his mother and didn't understand why she was apologizing to them."Steve, if you don't want it, that's fine, I'm not forcing you to accept it." Adaline tried to understand her son's decision.Steve nodded, grateful that his mum believed in his decision."Adaline, you should have raised your son with the right upbringing. That sense of prestige your son has will never bring anything good into your life."Hearing this, Steve took offence. His mother had just woken up after a three-year coma, how could his neighbor say such things to his mother."Can
The middle-aged woman's son was surprised to hear his mother trying to brag about himself, he felt embarrassed because it was tantamount to bragging about how big an ant is in front of an elephant."Mum, stop that." The middle-aged woman's son begged his mum to stop saying nonsense.The middle-aged woman immediately said, "Why, just let this rubbish know how small he is compared to you, my son."The middle-aged woman's son frantically glanced at Steve, he soon found out that Steve Hart was now looking at him as well as his mother expressionlessly."Damn, mum doesn't know that I'm a nobody compared to him." The middle-aged woman's son muttered in frustration."Don’t tell me nonsense! Son, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and make him apologise to you!" Middle-aged woman to her son.The middle-aged woman's son was getting more and more confused, he didn't know how to make his mother understand the real situation."Steve, let me talk to my mum for a minute."The middle-aged woman's son
During the afternoon when Steve Hart was still enjoying catching up with his mother, he decided to check his cell phone which had been dead since yesterday.Steve Hart was surprised to see that there were quite a lot of calls and messages on his cell phone, mostly from Agatha and his mother-in-law.Steve Hart tapped his forehead, he forgot not to tell them earlier that he decided not to go home last night."Son, what's wrong?" Adaline Hart decided to ask after noticing the change in her son's expression.Steve answered his mother's question with a quiet shake of his head, a moment later he said, "Mom, I guess I should get going. I'll be back soon."Although Adaline Hart objected, she said yes. Adaline didn't want to inconvenience Steve by constantly asking him to be by her side.Adaline Hart understood that Steve was now an adult, no longer a child and that her son must have his own busy life.Steve Hart immediately left the house with the aim of returning to the Cattegirn family resi
Hearing that there was a commotion created by his special customer, Benjamin Harris, the manager of the car dealership immediately tried to mediate the commotion.Benjamin Harris came hurriedly to Bella, he did not want to make Bella angry let alone dissatisfied with his place because customers like Bella are really valuable.Benjamin Harris considers Bella as one of the most meritorious customers to maintain his business, this is because the location of his car dealership is on the outskirts of the city, so, there are not many people who can afford to buy a car because most people who live there are people who don't have one.If anything, it was only done by a few rich people who happened to live there, of which, Bella Foster was one of them. Because of this, Benjamin was determined not to disappoint Bella when she was at his car dealership."Miss Bella, has my employee done anything wrong to make you feel angry like this?" Benjamin Harris asked this right after he arrived.Benjamin
Benjamin Harris noticed that Steve seemed to be waiting for an apology to come out of Bella's mouth, however, Bella did not say anything making the atmosphere instantly awkward.Benjamin Harris knew Bella was guilty, however, he did not have the gut to make Bella apologize to Steve because this matter was out of his hands."Hmm... Miss Bella, since this misunderstanding has been resolved, I would like to excuse myself to return to my room." Benjamin Harris intends to give space for Bella as well as Steve to solve their own problems.Benjamin Harris did not wait for Bella's answer, he immediately prepared to walk away from there as soon as possible."Wait..." Steve Hart stopped Benjamin, "Can I ask you to do something?"Benjamin frowned, if what Steve was asking from him was to make Bella apologize, then he would refuse firmly right then and there."I want to ask you to find a suitable car for me, do you mind doing that?" Steve Hart asked as he raised his eyebrows.Benjamin Harris was
