Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 99

Natalie woke up early the morning and was still wearing thick down jacket. Nothing was more important

After washing up quickly, she prepared breakfast and placed it under the thermos. She left a Po It note at the bea

her health

It was quite a coincidence that Hackett found the Mercedes next to him very familiar while waiting at the traffic lights. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Miss Landor’s Mercedes. Since the last moident, they havent had muc

interaction.

Hackett leaned against the car window and though about the woman. Despite her poor alcohol tolerance, she had many good qualities, including a slum waist, long legs, and curves in all the right places. She was even skilled in bed. However, her temper could be difficult to handle, and her sharp tongue was like a machine gun

Lost in his thoughts, Hackett was suddenly brought back to reality by a cloud of exhaust fumes that made him feel dizzy.

It seemed that a man’s mind turned to mush when he thought about lewdd things

Sitting next to him. Joy said disapprovingly, “Why are you driving so absent-mindedly? Pay attention! Instead of thinking about all those messy women, bring back a proper wife for me Miss Landor way nice. Why are you so useless that you can’t even catch up with her?”

Hackett thought to himself. “Is this what it means to be mother and son? They could both think of the same woman at the

same time

After despising her son, she said, “What’s wrong with people these days” They drive so fast. Don’t they know how to be safe?

Hackett doubted that the woman in the car was Miss Landor. At least her driving skills didn’t match up. He turned has head towards Joy with a smule and said, “Mom, she just accelerated a little faster. At normal speed on this road, where could she possibly go so fast? Unless she had wings to fly

Joy didn’t dwell on the issue of driving speed and cautioned her son, “When we arrive at your uncle’s house, be careful what you say I know that over the years, your uncle and Mia have been a bit excessive in their ways, and you and your father don’t approve of it either. However, they rely on each other, and I can’t just sit by and do nothing Mia’s story is alu heartbreaking she was abandoned by her biological mother due to their poverty, leaving your uncle to raise her alone. Even though we’re not helping them anymore, we shouldn’t sever all ties. Your uncle called and said that Mia is ill, so we should go see her. After all, he’s my brother.”

Hackett understood what his mother meant. Kind people were often taken advantage of, and poverty was not an excuse or a reason to demand that others help you unconditionally. In this world, no one owed anyone else anything. Helping someone was a matter of goodwill, and refraining from helping was a matter of boundaries.

However, how many people understood it?

Hackett never approved of his uncle’s values but still said. “I understand. Didn’t I come with you? Don’t blame Dad for not coming with us. He has had enough. You know what kind of person Mia is, and maybe you haven’t seen everything. A few days ago, she got pregnant by someone else and blamed it on Mr. Wilson.”

Hackett understood why Mr. Wilson let Mia off again and agam. Firstly, it was because Grandpa had saved Mr. Wilson when he was a child. Secondly, it was out of consideration for Hackett’s sake after all, Mia was his cousin

Hackett couldn’t help but feel relieved that Mia didn’t twist the truth about the baby in front of his sister-in-law. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to save her, and she might have ended up being thrown into some underground market.

Ever since he found out about Mr. Wilson’s relationship with his sister-in-law, Hackett realized Mr. Wilson’s attitude towards his sister-in-law and how she had used him as a tool before. All of this made him worry even more about Mia Blackwell.

Joy was a bit surprised and said, “Is this child mad? How can such things happen so casually? Ridiculous!”

After Mia received 10 million dollars, Michael’s company was revived. However, there were still very few people who wanted to cooperate with the Sullivan Group Without the help of the Blackwell and Wilson families, it was difficult to continue moving forward. Additionally, Michael was not skilled in business management and was unable to adapt to changes

After a few days, most of the money was already spent, and there wasn’t much left.
