Chapter 146

It seemed like Mr Inpet was using the interests of the Leper Corporation as a quarantee for Dory

Would anyone do this for a classmate or a close fhend? How deep would that friendship have to be?

Everett left the conference room to find his assistant already wating outside the door

“Mr. Lopez your fight’s booked. We haven’t scheduled the return flight yet. Once you’re done with your

business in Lumina Bay just shoot me a message and I’ll book it for you”

Everett nodded and took a few long strides back to his office. Just as he pushed open the door, he was

surprised to see his mother sitting on the sofa looking all fred up.

He turned his handsome face and gave his assistant a look, who quickly closed the door and left the

offer.

“Mom, do you need something”

“Don’t you think I deserve to know that you have another woman staying at your house Amanda went

straight to the point. “The girl i met pesterday, she’s not just some cleaner, she’s the mistress you are

keeping at home isn’t she

Everett didn’t like the word mistress caused his eyebrows to furrow

“That’s my business”

“So you admit it, huh?” Amanda stood up and walked over to him, scolding him loudly “Are you trying to

kill me? Heather is your face! How could you do this to her? Only Heather could put up with that She

even covered it up for you”

Faced with his mothers wild accusations. Everett showed little reaction other than a frown.

He knew this day would come. He hadno face it, he just didn’t expect it to be so soon

Aher pause. Everett walked behind his desk and sat down

“Mom, I dont have romantic feelings for Heather”

“You’re going to be heartless, huh? Heather has made such a great comibution to the Lopez

Corporation. Even your dad said that marrying her would be greatly beneficial to your career. Plus, you

guys have known each other since you were kids Heather’s mom and your dad are close trends, if

you’re not marrying her, who are you going to marry? That cleaner Amanda got angret as she spoke

Suddenly she covered her chest.

Her face turned increasingly pale. It looked like she could’t catch her breat

Seeing this, Everett immediately stood up to support her and then shouted, “Call an ambulance

“I’m going to the of anger. Even in this stane, Amanda didn’t forget to be angry

But her son wouldn’t budge. He just only pursed his lips all the way unte she was loaded onto the

ambulance

Fomunately her heart condition wasnt that seniaus, but her depression seemed to be flaring up.

On the way to the hospital, I wrett noticed has mother was scratching her own palm with her nails so

hard that she was now bleeding

He tried to pull her hand away but Amanda seemed to be using all her strength to do this. He couldn’t

use too much force, womed that he would hurt her fingers..

This was her state when her depression acted up. She would harm herself, stab herself with a knife,

headbutt the wall, and display many mossell harming behaviors

Finally they arrived at the hospital

Everett waited outside

She was rushed into the emergency room while Everett v

Suddenly, his phone beeped

He glanced down and saw that it was a message from Dorothy

Why did it have to be at this time?

you coming home tonight? Uh, I don’t mean anything by it. I just wanted to say that if you’re not coming

home. I’m going to Karen’s place

Everett sted at the words on the screen with a furrowed brow feeling a massive headache coming on.

This wasnt how he had pictured Dorothy meeting his mothat. Before he could even introduce them, his

mother was already vehemently against it. How was he supposed to tell her they were already

married?
