Chapter 621
Julia was frightened by Seth’s glare and didn’t dare to make a scene anymore. Biting her lower lip, she tugged Seth’s shirt and said piteously, “Don’t get mad at me. Get mad at her. She’s the one who provoked me first.”
Seth looked at Julia quietly. He was well aware that Julia had been bullying Tasha ever since she moved in. It was only normal that Tasha couldn’t stand it anymore.
But Seth needed the support of the Walker family. Even if Julia was an annoying little bitch, he couldn’t afford to do anything to her right now.
“I’m not mad at you. Why would you waste your time on such a shallow and stupid woman?” Seth softened his tone to comfort the aggrieved Julia.
Julia instantly cheered up, shooting Tasha a smug smile.
Tasha forced a smile but said nothing.
She knew that this was probably what he really thought of her. They had been married for so many years but Seth had never given her the light of day.
Tasha used to think that it was because of his pride. It was true that she wasn’t as excellent as him. Now, Tasha realized that Seth looked down not just upon her, but everyone.
Indeed, Seth had never thought highly of his wife. In his eyes, she was an incompetent and stupid woman who only cared about money. For the sake of money, she was willing to abandon her own child. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
But on second thought, that made things easier for Seth. A greedy woman like Tasha was simple and easy to control. At least, she didn’t pose a threat to him.
Seth glanced at the drawer that was opened by Tasha just now. Inside lay several pieces of gold jewelry that had been gifted to him.
Seth sneered and glanced at the laptop on the table. It looked untouched, so he didn’t think too much about it.
“Come with me,” Seth said to Tasha coldly.
Tasha clenched her fists to calm herself down and followed him to the corridor.
“How much more do you want?” Seth asked abruptly. He didn’t even bother to beat around the bush.
“You opened two restaurants in Sugden after we got married, right? I want them both.” Tasha answered without missing a beat.
Truth be told, she wasn’t interested in Seth’s restaurants at all. She had never even been to either of them. It was just an excuse she came up with on the fly.
“You’re insatiably greedy, aren’t you? Those restaurants have always done well. How come I never knew you were so obsessed with money before?” Seth sneered in disdain. “Fine. I’ll give you the two restaurants, but from now on, you should behave yourself. I’ve given you a lot of money. That’s it. If I find out you tried to go through my things again, I won’t be as nice.”
Knowing that this was his last and final warning, Tasha nodded in satisfaction. “Thank you, Mr. Lester. Don’t worry. I promise I won’t do it again. And I know that what I’ve asked for is just a drop in the bucket for you.”
Seth rolled his eyes and then left with Julia.
The very next day, Seth moved out of the Lester family home with Julia.
Just as they were leaving the villa, she yelled, “You little bitch! You greedy, fucking slutty bitch! You’re already getting a divorce yet you still blackmail Seth for money!”
“Shut up.” Seth frowned in disgust. He really couldn’t take Julia’s shrill voice.
Patrick had said that he was going to come back home recently, so it wasn’t decent for Julia to continue to live here. Moreover, Julia always quarreled with Tasha at home. Seth didn’t want to give Tasha another chance to blackmail him again.
Tasha stood on the balcony and watched their limo drive away, feeling anxious.
Now that Seth didn’t live at home, she would have no chance to get her hands on his laptop.
Tasha took out her phone and texted Ethan promptly, asking him if he had any ideas as to what she could do next.
