Chapter 147

Eric?

The name sounded familiar.

“What is his relationship with Tim?” Sylvia asked.

Edgar had no intention of hiding it from her. “They are both my subordinates.”

Sylvia rested her chin on her hand, her elbow on her knee, tilting her head as she observed him. Her appearance was particularly enchanting, with her delicate features displayed up close in front of Edgar,

Edgar’s heart skipped a beat. This woman… Does she not realize that her expression is captivating?

Lost in his thoughts, Sylvia spoke up: “I never expected that, despite your current situation, you still have loyal followers. You probably still have personal assets, right?”

His personal assets were insignificant compared to the many secrets he actually possessed, but he

couldn’t disclose them to her at the moment.

Edgar felt a bit pleased. “Are you trying to take control of my private assets? I don’t care about money. If

you want it, I can hand it all over to you.”

Sylvia rolled her eyes at him.

“I’m not interested in your money. I’m just curious why you don’t use the money to redeem the old house, at least to make your mother and sister’s lives more comfortable,” Sylvia said.

He lowered his head. “My mother has a harsh personality, and my sister is spoiled. They both bully you, so this is my way of punishing them.”

Sylvia was slightly surprised. “I’m just your ex–wife, and they are your family. How can you be so harsh

on them?”

Edgar has always had his principles.

“If something is wrong, it’s wrong. I won’t show favoritism. This is just an opportunity to toughen their

characters a bit.”

Although there is nothing wrong with this statement, Sylvia couldn’t help but feel something strange

about it.

“Let it be with Mia, but what about Yvonne? She’s your biological mother. Aren’t you afraid of being
