Novel1Chapter 6458
Harvey felt like he was looking at concubines from a bygone era as he looked at the women, old-fashioned and
drowned in decadence.
He instinctively felt disgusted.
"Were you looking for me, stepmother?’
It seemed like Journi did not like what she was looking at as well, but she still started the conversation with a
blank expression.
It was obvious that the woman who won the card gwas Elric's current wife, Pamela Thompson. She was
barely a few years older than Journi.

"Stepmother?' Pamela glanced coldly at Journi. "I told you many times. You can either callmom or mother.
You keep on callingstepmother... Will you only be satisfied by remindingthat I'm your father's
subsequent wife? Or maybe you think | can't deal with you after you mockedlike that?"
Pamela was sneering at this time, and she seemed surrounded by an air of arrogance that Harvey could not
really put his finger on.
However, Harvey could already tell from Pamela's last nthat she was most likely someone from the
Thompson family. The only thing he could not ascertain was whether she was someone from the main family or
the branch family.
However, whether she was from the main or branch family did not matter. Pamela was someone quite highly
ranked within the Stanton family.
Journi narrowed her eyes as she looked at the woman before her.
After a while, she replied, "There's something | don't have to remind you of, and you know it very well. My mom
is dead, but you'll never becthe owner of this estate."
Pamela scoffed. "Do you think you'll be the owner when you are married? What? Do you feel like you have the
power to speak so loudly against me, your stepmother, right after you have graduated and worked for a few
months? Do you think that you don't have to listen toanymore?
"All I need is to say one word, and your dad will take back all the money he invested in you. | can even make him
lock you up in your room. Once I'm in a good mood, I'll sell you off and let you know what it means to be the
mistress of the house!"
Journi's expression turned sour when she heard what Pamela had said. She took a deep breath to calm herself
down and said, "I'm here today to tell you | have a boyfriend now. From now on, | will decide on my own marriage

"Boyfriend?" Pamela was slightly surprised and turned her attention to Harvey-a smirk formed on her lips. "Don't
tellit's this man who looked like one of our drivers. Is he your so-called boyfriend?
"Haven't | told you many times? A woman shouldn't find a man from the garbage heaps. She has to be
responsible for herself and the entire family."
It was clear how much Pamela despised and looked down on Harvey from her tone alone. Harvey could not be
bothered by wasting his breath with Pamela, but she was crossing the line. He smiled and introduced himself,
"Hello. I'm Harvey York, glad to meet you."
"Silence. Am | addressing you? What makes you think you can join in this conversation?' Pamela coldly
interjected. "Another word from you and I'll have your tongue cut out, understand? You should know your place.
You don't even know where you are on the social ladder. Do you think you can act so arrogant towardsjust
because you're mooching off of Journi?*
