Chapter 3296 Jean Is Once Again Being Manipulated By Marie

"Now that you've signed that agreement, we can't ask Percy for money anymore!" Jean laid out the harsh truth neither of them wanted to accept.

Marie heard this and started thinking about ditching the whole mess.

However, she kept a straight face, deciding to play it cool for now and see how the mother and son were going to handle things.

"I didn't know! What do we do now?" Anna was panicking now. "Come on, tell me! What's the plan?"

Marie chimed in, "Why don't we try getting some legal aid? I mean, they set us up first, right? We can't just let them get away with this!"

Jean thought to himself that Percy definitely covered all bases.

There was no way Percy would waste his time on something pointless, so he definitely had a lawyer look over that agreement. Otherwise, Percy would not have let Anna sign it in the first place.

Therefore, if they wanted more cash without paying back what they already got, legal aid was probably the only shot they had.

"Alright, let's do it. Legal aid it is," replied Jean. He was already heading for the door.

Marie tried to follow him, but Anna yanked her back.

"What do you think you're doing? Why are you tagging along?"

Marie, unbothered by Anna's attitude, coldly replied, "I'm the one who found the loophole in the agreement. I know more about this stuff than you do. If I don't go, are you gonna go instead?"

"Who's gonna cook, then?" Anna shot back, feeling insulted. She knew this whole mess was partly her fault for signing the agreement.

"You had hands to sign that dumb agreement, didn't you? So, why can't you cook with those same hands?" Marie fired back, clearly fed up. She had never met anyone so dumb.

She could not believe Anna got played over something so trivial.

Anyone with half a brain knew to read the fine print in an agreement. Marie thought Anna was pretty dumb. If she had been a bit smarter back then, she would not have let herself get screwed over like this.

She would not be missing out on the money either.

Anna's face turned pale white. It was one thing for Jean to blame her, but Marie? She had no right!
