The Heiress Strikes Back

390 To Contend On Strong Grounds

“Mom, the Harris family isn’t doing well. They don’t have much money at all. Isn’t it only right for them to close down now?” Wallace raised his question again. The reason why the Harris family could last till now was because of their deep foundation.

“Look at what you’re saying! Your parents are already so old. Can’t you think about us too?”

Wallace looked at June seriously. “Mom, I don’t want to say this anymore. I’ve always been thinking about you and father. I gave you most of my salary before I got married. You have shares in the few companies I have now too.”

“The money father and I earn is all under your control. We’ve never asked about it either. Most of the family’s matters are up to you. I also hope that you can respect my decision. Now, I don’t want to return to the Harris family to clean up the mess. I just want to start my own business and create my own Harris family’s brand. Is it that difficult?”

June knew that she couldn’t win against Wallace, so she could only sit there with her tears starting to fall again. She even muttered, “I just have a tough life! It wasn’t easy for me to raise you. I was hoping that you would find a girl of similar background and ability to help you, but in the end?”

“Your grandfather is crazy to let you marry such a useless thing. Good, good. Now that no one in the family thinks highly of me and no one listens to me, I have no status in the family at all. Tell me, what’s the point of me living?”

Seeing that his mother was starting to resort to moral coercion, Wallace couldn’t help but rub his temples. “Mom! Don’t say that Sharon doesn’t do what you want, alright? Sharon is a big celebrity now! The place we’re living in now was earned by Sharon. Otherwise, our family’s house would have been sold by the people in our hometown. Isn’t this all thanks to Sharon?”

June was determined to say bad things about Sharon. When she heard Wallace speak up for Sharon again, she quickly cried and said, “So what if we moved in? Will we be better than others if we move in? No matter what, it was given by Sullivan. Sullivan only gave it to us because of you, do you know that!”

Wallace sighed and said, “Mom, it doesn’t matter to me if you insist on crying, throwing a tantrum, and even threatening to hang yourself. The solution is still the same, Sharon and I will stay in the mansion, and you and Dad can move back to the old mansion.”

When June heard these words, she immediately panicked. She quickly stood up and said, “You, you still want to split up with us?”

“Can’t I?” Wallace nodded. “We’ve been married for a few years. I’m short on funds and don’t have a place to stay, so can’t I live at my wife’s place?”

“No! Absolutely not!” June looked at Wallace as if he was crazy.

However, Wallace seemed to have made up his mind and said seriously, “Mom, isn’t this what you want? If you want me to go back to the Harris family, I’m unwilling to do so. The best outcome is that I bring Sharon to live outside. You can go back to the Harris family. Doesn’t this achieve your wish? You can only choose one of the two. Decide for yourself!”

June looked at Wallace. She knew that her son wasn’t joking with her now. She instantly realized that she had gone overboard.

If she continued to use such methods to force Wallace to submit, Wallace would definitely not compromise so easily. He would even ask them to move back to their broken house. If that was really the case, they might have to go through a complete break!

At the thought that she couldn’t live in the big mansion that Sullivan had given Sharon, June felt uncomfortable. She sighed in her heart and her tone instantly softened. “Alright, alright, alright! You, you... Forget it. I will definitely support your entrepreneurship, but as for the Harris family... If you don’t want to go back, then we won’t. However, your grandmother is old too. It’s only right for us to go back and visit occasionally!”

“I have my own arrangements for this matter. Mom, don’t worry. Let’s go home together later. The two of you don’t have to go back to the old mansion.”

Sharon looked at Wallace. She didn’t expect him to take the initiative. With just a few words, he made June give up on the idea of dragging them back.

Wallace also turned to look at Sharon, as if he was looking for praise from her.

Her husband was really not bad. On normal days, she could not tell that he was very capable at critical moments.

Xenon, who was standing at the side, did not speak. In fact, he did not want to return to the Harris family either. After all, those guys looked down on him!

However, he did not expect his son to be so tough. Seeing him speak with such clarity, Xenon quickly stood up to smooth things over. “Look, isn’t it good to have a peaceful family now?”
