Chapter 100

Irene's words made Steven lose his appetite. He brought an ATM card to Irene's room and said, "Irene, this is for you. The pin is your birthday." Irene took the card without hesitance. "Remember to tell me if you need help. I will try everything in my power to help you," Steven added.

Irene was skeptical. Nonetheless, she replied to him with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Cook!"

Steven noticed her indifferent attitude. He left dejected and met with Deborah. Deborah handed him another ATM card and said, "Steven, Irene must be having it really hard right now. I have some savings here. Give it to her for me."

Deborah's gesture of kindness made Steven speechless. "Forget it, leave all the money you have for Lily. I will find a way to help Irene," Steven responded and went into the study.

Deborah wasn't sincere; she was just trying to gain some points for herself. It was great that Steven didn't take the money. After Steven left, she then took the card to Lily's room.

Lily immediately flew into a rage when she saw Deborah enter, "Mommy, that b*tch is too evil! Why did she have to come back at this time? She just wants to see the world burn! I can't stand it anymore; we have to drive her out of the house." "What plans do you have?" Deborah asked. She would have acted sooner if she had any.

"Mom, why do you think that b*tch came back? We pleaded with her before but she refused. What made her come back now?" Lily asked.

"How would I know?" Deborah was annoyed. She was also racking her head trying to figure out why Irene came back.

"Why did she didn't bring her son back too? He was so young."

Speaking of Irene's child, Deborah was also stunned. Why did Irene come back alone? "Mom, if Dad finds out about the child, the entire thing would go downhill for us."

"Nothing is going to happen but you are right. We have to let Steven know about the child. That child is her Achilles heel. If we can manage to bring the kid into this home, she won't be that hard to deal with."

"Will she bring the child here?" asked Lily.

"I don't know. I'll tell your father now."

Deborah went to Steven's study and knocked on the door. She tried to push the door open but it was locked. Deborah was dumbstruck. Why did Steven lock the door? What was he doing in the study alone?

Steven thought for a while and opened the door. Seeing Deborah's impatient face, he asked, "What's the matter?" "Steven, I have something to tell you." Deborah suppressed her doubts and tried to put a smile on her face.

"What's the matter?" Steven asked her to go in.
