He Clings to Me Every Night

Chapter 66 - 066: One Hundred Thousand Dollar Check



Seraphina really knew how to act; the icy stare from Andrew Jenkins seemed as though it could pierce through her.

“Enough, you don’t need to say more, Hannah Jenkins has already agreed to work at the Content Operations Department of Quiet Video. You should stay here and take care of mother properly.”

Seraphina feigned weakness and argued cunningly, “Andrew, I truly did not mean that, don’t misunderstand me.”

“What exactly did I misunderstand?” Andrew’s somber eyes gleamed with an intimidating brilliance, containing an intense force of destructiveness.

Seraphina knew better than to keep talking, but rather, Mrs. Jenkins took up her case, “Andrew, are you trying to upset me to death? Seraphina has always been accommodating while you fail to appreciate her efforts. You continue to stir up trouble without considering the family’s well-being. How could you be so obdurate?”

“Mom, you should rest well. I have plenty of company matters to deal with, I should get back to work.”

Having said that, Andrew made to leave.

Mrs. Jenkins snapped, “Have Olivia apologize to me for threatening me last night. She was plotting for Daniel to take over Jenkins Group, which really upset me. You’ve put her on a pedestal; see how she treats us? Andrew, it’s time you woke up and recognized who truly treats you well, stop being so stubborn! ” Andrew gave a cold sarcastic laugh.

His eyes were filled with helpless resignation and boundless disappointment towards his mother.

“Did Olivia actually say that?”

Mrs. Jenkins kept a straight face, “You should ask her directly. That ungrateful girl thinks she’s grown wings and has no respect for her elders.” Andrew pursed his lips slightly and nodded his head.

He felt a strange sense of relief in his heart.

“If Daniel truly wants to take over the Jenkins Group, I shall let him. If Olivia really plans it this way, and Daniel is willing to support her, I would be pleased to see her being so confident.”

After giving Seraphina a chilling stare, Andrew decisively left the ward.

Upon not receiving any assurance from her son regarding Olivia’s apology, Mrs. Jenkins was left fuming and her face turned green with anger.

Her son’s words also left her greatly disappointed. Besides, Mrs. Jenkins was extremely worried.

Things wouldn’t go well if the Marshall family intervened.

She hadn’t expected that marrying Olivia to Daniel would really give Olivia wings.

Seraphina gave Hannah a meaningful look.

Quickly, Hannah soothed her grandmother’s worries in a soft voice.

She even thoughtfully poured a cup of warm water for her grandmother and comforted her not to be angry.

“Our Hannah is the best, and most affectionate to grandmother. Having you around eases my pain. Hannah, you go find George. He must be upset; he needs some comforting.”

Having said that, Mrs. Jenkins handed Hannah a check for a hundred thousand.

Hannah didn’t take the check, “Grandmother, you keep your money. I and

George have enough for expenses. ”

“Take it, or else grandma will be upset. Now that your bride is pregnant and needs nutrition. You will also have to buy many things. You and George should accompany her for shopping and try to comfort her.”

Seraphina gave Hannah another significant look.

Immediately, Hannah changed her tune, “Thank you, grandmother, I shall go find George first. I will come back to the hospital to accompany you later.” Mrs. Jenkins smiled faintly and nodded satisfactorily.

Seraphina’s expression remained unchanged but inwardly, she was growing anxious and feeling a bit unsettled.

Andrew’s words were not only a threat to her but also an inevitable conclusion.

If Daniel intervenes, her chances of seizing the Jenkins Group are slim.

If Daniel’s on Olivia’s side, it won’t be easy to take Olivia down.

Sitting in front of her mother-in-law, Seraphina started to get distracted.

She was considering her next move.

She must not let Daniel take Olivia’s side. Ideally, the Marshall family should kick Olivia out pronto.

Without the backing of the Marshall family, Olivia means nothing..
