'First of all didn't cause your brother's death," She emphatically denied, making it clear. "I remember correctly, you fold the police that your brother committed suicide because he would be paralyzed lore and didn't want to burden the family."

Andrew wanted to argue otherwise. "That's because

Alas, hallway through his sentence, he shut his mouth.

"That's because your family accepted one million dollars as hush money from my mother, Larissa completed his sentence, "Does your brother know that he was only worth a million dollars to you?" Seeing her point out the truth, Andrew stopped holding himself hack.

"If it's not your fault why would your mother compensate my family with a million dollars? he asked, his confidence restored.

Larissa wished she could record this scene and show it to her cun ning mother. It was because of her loolish move that her daughter was now in such ar embarrassing situation, but she knew she wouldn't care. As long as the Hardys didn't make a fuss with the Seymours. Yvette couldn't care less about Larissa being misunderstood or humiliated.

"Nobody knows the real reason behind your brother's suicide except himself. What makes you think you can blame it all on me? If that' the case, I can also say that it was your parents' cerstart arguing in the hospital room and embarrassing him on TV that drove him to his death. Your parents should compensate me because I'm stil legally married to your brother, and I paid for all his medical expenses." Larissa refused to back down. Her years of experience in the workplace taught her not only to endure but also to be assertive when necessary. Andrew fell silent.

"You... you're being unreasonable? he glared at Larissa, his eyes red, and his lips trembling with anger

Sightly amused by his reaction, Larissa smiled faintly

"I'm just behaving like your family is." She paused and asked him. "So, in that case, doesn't that make you unreasonable too?"

Andrew couldn't form a reply to that. However, Larissa didn't let him off the heck so easily.

"You'll face the consequences Andrew spat angry and stormed out of the hotel without looking back.

Every time she deall with the Hardys felt like a tough battle. By the time he left, Larissa's shirt was soaked wh

sweat which made her feel extremely uncomfortable. She went to take a shower, and she found a new message on her phone from Andrew after that.

He said. "The rent has been returned, Con't come looking for trouble again!"

His quick compromise took Larissa by surprise.

She immediately called the agent to get him to talk to the middle-aged couple who rented the house from Yvette. Il they didn't want to move out they could sign a new contract with the agent at the rental price previously effered by Yvette. A part of the rent would be the

agent's commission

However, not long after, the agent gave her a reply. "I think you should rent out the house yourself, Ms. Seymour I can't handle this!"

Finding his reaction strange, Larissa quickly asked him, "What happened?"

"What happened? The agent sounded upset. "I was beaten up with a broom, and now Im bruised all over! That couple said they have already paid the rent and won't pay again! Could you be more considerate. Ms. Seymour? You sent me over there without clarifying anything! I haven't camed a single cent, and now I have to pay for my medical expenses) God, I'm so unlucky!
