Thomas narrowed his eyes when he heard this. “Is that true?”
This was new.
“Of course it is!” A glimmer of triumph flashed through Tina‘s eyes when she sensed Thomas‘ attitude
letting up. “Of course it‘s true. I know I lied to you before, Thomas, but I wouldn‘t dare to do it anymore.
“After all, you know how good that helper of yours, Joshua Lynch, is at his job–he‘s already claimed
most of the family inheritance. Your father knows that if he doesn‘t admit his mistake now, he won‘t
have any way to fight back against you.
“At the same time, he‘s still holding onto his ego, so he insisted I call you and persuade you to come
home. Then, he‘ll apologize to you, and you can discuss everything together.”
Tina was trying her best to coax Thomas to come home.
Thomas narrowed his eyes at this.
A split second later, he curled his lips into a smirk and scoffed. “Well, he should‘ve thought of this in the
first place.”
This was why he had enlisted Joshua‘s help–to get back what was rightfully his mother‘s!
Thomas narrowed his eyes at the thought of this and said, “I still have a meeting to attend, so I‘ll
probably only be home around noon.” “Okay!” Tina was delighted to hear this. After getting Thomas‘
confirmation, she hung up the phone.
“Are you sure this is going to work, Mrs. Howard?” Denise asked, frowning.
“Why not?” Tina scoffed and crossed her arms on her chest as she lay against the sofa comfortably. A
glimmer of malice flashed through her eyes as she stared into the distance.” You‘re impatient too,
aren‘t you? Well, if you don‘t get your hands on Thomas right now, there won‘t be any more
opportunities in the future!” Then, she opened the coffee table drawer and placed a small bottle on the
tabletop. She pushed the bottle toward Denise and said, “This is a special pill I acquired from the
hospital. It‘s supposed to promote ovulation. If you take one now, it‘ll take effect just in time for Thomas
to come home from work.”
Denise bit her lip, picked up the bottle, and hesitated for a moment before finally swallowing the pill
whole. The reason Thomas was treating Yannie so kindly was because they shared a child together,
Riley.
Well, if Yannie could do this, she could do the same, too. She would get Thomas to sleep with her and
bear his children, too!
“Good girl.” Tina smiled as she watched Denise swallow the pill. Then, she put on her usual kind,
understanding facade and clasped Denise‘s hand gently. “We‘ll definitely succeed together, but not only
that…I‘m sure Dan will succeed too.”
Dan Howard was the son of Tina and Senior Howard – Thomas‘ half–brother. Denise nodded. “Don‘t
worry, Mrs. Howard. I…I‘ll try my best.” Then, she lowered her head in feigned embarrassment, but a
glimmer of spite flashed through her eyes. She wanted to see how Thomas‘ attitude toward that
wretched Yannie would change after that night.
As soon as Thomas abandoned Yannie for her, the Hughes family would never have to worry about
that bitch Gwen ever again!
