Chapter 1466 The Silence

“What does that even mean? And you think this five million is enough to brush me off?” scoffed Lyla condescendingly.

“How much exactly do you want then? That man has already done so much for you for so many years, and you’re still not content? You look perfectly fine to me, so I don’t see why you need handouts. Besides, he has a kid to raise now. How much more are you planning to take from him?”

“A kid? What kid?” The Emmanuels were stunned by the sudden piece of information.

“What are you talking about? Whose kid is that?” questioned Matilda.

“You don’t know? It’s Ms. Fischer’s. That kid was no test-tube baby. She only told Brandon that because she had no other choice. You probably had no idea that she had severe depression because of your family’s constant abuse. In the end, she decided to take her own life,” sneered the assistant as if he was talking to a bunch of hideous and revolting creatures.
