Chapter 338 Alimony

“Miss Tessa, I miss you!”

“I miss you too, Greg. What did you do today?”

“I took a culture class in the morning. I was practicing the violin just now, but I always get this area wrong.” As he spoke, he looked at her expectantly.

She naturally understood his thoughts. So, she asked him to play the song again. When she found any problems, she gave him advice for him to improve. Meanwhile, Gregory took his lessons seriously, and soon he was able to play the song rather well.

After the call ended, Tessa had a content smile on her lips. Even though she was on the bed, she didn’t feel sleepy. If anything, she felt that although she currently could not accompany the people she cared about in her life, the days she spent right now were still very fulfilling.

Tessa grabbed her phone as she had those thoughts in her mind. She planned to browse through the news back in her home country while waiting for her sleepiness to kick in. But, in the end, the trending news made all her sleepiness go away.

‘Such unfilial grandchild should be expelled from Southend University.’

Below the news headline was a photo of Timothy.

At once, Tessa browsed through the news. The look on her face turned nasty with each condemnation. I never expected Grandma would dare to pester Tim! Furthermore, she twisted the truth and made herself a victim. She even slandered Tim!

Initially, Tessa wanted to give Timothy a call and asked him what was going on. However, she hung up the moment she made the call. Since Tim didn’t tell me about this in the call earlier, he obviously doesn’t want me to worry about it.

At this thought, Tessa stared at the news on her phone again and felt utterly angered and repulsed by Amber. At a moment of impulsiveness, she wished she could immediately fly back home to help him, but she eventually squashed the urge.

Tim is all grown up now. I can’t always protect him.

Although her thoughts said to let him deal with it, she was still worried throughout the night.

Meanwhile, in a cafe in Southend, Timothy gazed coldly at Amber, who was in front of him, with an unprecedented look of revulsion in his eyes.

“What the hell do you want?”

“It looks like you’re having a bad day, aren’t you?” Amber smiled smugly. “My request is very simple. Give me money! I want at least half a million per month in alimony!”

“Half a million?” Timothy smiled and laughed sardonically.

However, she didn’t care as she continued triumphantly. “Yes, only half a million. Don’t even think about telling me you don’t have that much money. I’d hired someone to learn about your company, so I know your company is very profitable. You earn millions with just any software. Anyway, let me tell you: I want exactly half a million. No less. Otherwise, I’ll continue exposing you on the Internet, including Tessa!” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Amber knew that Tessa was his weakness. Sure enough, his facial expression changed in the next second, and it was arctic.

It’s clear to see that the Reinhart Family is extremely greedy. These people, they just can’t live with the fact that I’m doing better than them now. They also can’t live with the fact that Tess is doing well. So, there’s no need for me to be merciful in this case.

In the meantime, she had no idea what was going on in his mind. She thought she had successfully threatened him with her words when he gave her no response. Hence, she reached out her hand and began to ask for money.

“Give me this month’s alimony now!”

Timothy lowered his head and looked at the hand that reached out in front of him. He stood up with a sneer and said condescendingly, “Even if I have to burn that half a million, I will never give it to someone like you.”

After that, he couldn’t care less how nasty her facial expression became, and he simply turned around and left.

Once he returned to the company, Timothy immediately asked for a lawyer’s letter to be published on the Internet. He also issued a public statement at the same time.

‘Regarding the alimony, I hereby announce that I will not pay her a single cent. As for the reason? The Reinhart Family did not give me any support or financial aid when I grew up in the first place. Moreover, they disinherited me. Over the years, all the expenses, including my surgical expenses and living expenses, have been earned by my sister, Tessa Reinhart. She has put in blood, sweat, and tears to earn that money by taking up several part-time jobs. Therefore, in this life, I will only support my sister.’

Below the post, there was a copy of the living expenses listed by Timothy over the years, as well as the income and expenditure of their bank accounts. These accounts all had a specific time. Some even dated back more than ten years ago.

Toward the end, Timothy also said that netizens could run a check if they wanted to because he had nothing to hide.
