Harvey's eyes turned cold.
"Dire consequences? We're in the age of law. Can the Jean family go against that? They wouldn't darerob you of your achievements, would they?"
Mandy sighed.
"They would! You don't get it, Harvey. The law is nothing to the top ten families. They only use it toprotect their interests anyway..."
Harvey chuckled.
"Alright. Stop thinking too much.
"I've already looked into your fortune before coming here.
"Once you break off from the Jean family, you'll be free!
"When that happens, you'll become Golden Sands' richest woman!
"And then, I could cling to you even more!
"I'm the best geomancy expert in the city. My predictions will always come true!"
Mandy rolled her eyes.
"Can you be a little more mature? All you think of is being a kept man!
"If you're actually the best geomancy expert in the city, I'll just let you take care of me instead!"
Mandy sighed again.
"Anyway, why'd you come all the way here anyway?"
"Nothing much," Harvey said. "We haven't eaten or shopped together in a while. Let's go on a date."Harvey smiled gently at her.
On one hand, he was afraid Mandy would go into work mode again if he showed her the contract.novelbin
On the other hand, he really hoped she'd break free from the Jean family. However, that seemed to bea difficult task for the time being.
Mandy smiled.
"Fine. We'll have our date, but..."
Voom, voom, voom!
Mandy's phone suddenly vibrated at this moment. She picked up the call, then laughed bitterly.
"My father's in trouble. We need to go!" Mandy exclaimed, dragging Harvey into her red Porsche."What happened?" Harvey asked.
"The no-good friends he made took him to an underground casino today," Mandy replied miserably. "Hewon millions of dollars at first, and was ecstatic.
"But after betting his own money, he lost three matches in a row!
"Not only did he lose the money he won....
"But he even lost his own money!
"He was afraid of Mother lashing out, so he mortgaged Ostrane One for a hundred and fifty milliondollars and tried to win all the money back with that.
"But after that, he lost...."
Mandy was depressed. She didn't think that the family was in more trouble than she was!
Harvey, meanwhile, was speechless.
'What a guy...
'The house isn't even his in the first place!
'Does he think he can just mortgage it as he pleases?
'Are the others stupid as well?
'Did they actually allow him to go through with the mortgage, even without a real estate certificate?"
Harvey narrowed his eyes, as if he figured out something.
Things weren't as simple as it seemed.
"There's no rush, Mandy. I'll go with you," he said gently. "I'm here if you need me. Don't worry. I canhandle this."
Mandy rolled her eyes, but in truth, Harvey's words soothed and calmed her.
