Chapter 1004 - 962: Diapers and Training Pants
"Brett, take my mom out, don’t disturb President Johnson’s work."
After a brief loss of control, Vivian Abbey returned to her sharp and capable self.
"Mom, let’s go. This is a company. If you keep making a fuss and alert the Sixth Master, I won’t be able to protect you," Brett Jacobs advised.
Although he didn’t like this mother-in-law, out of respect for his wife, Brett still gave her ample respect.
"Who is the Sixth Master?"
Sienna Johnson said, "My husband!"
Someone of Sienna Johnson’s level was usually out of reach for Mother Abbey. When Sienna sat there staring at her, it made Mother Abbey inexplicably frightened. Sienna’s husband? He must be even more intimidating.
"Can’t you deposit Vivian’s salary into my account? Or maybe just a part of it? President Johnson, now that this girl has a man, she doesn’t want her mother anymore. You have to stand up for me!"
"I am not some upright official from the courthouse; I can’t make decisions for you. If you think Secretary Scarlet isn’t supporting you, you can sue her in the courtroom. The law is fair, and they will stand up for you."
Vivian couldn’t listen anymore and said to Brett, "What are you doing standing there? Hurry and get my mom out of here, don’t let her embarrass herself anymore."
"You ungrateful girl, how am I embarrassing you? You have a man now and don’t care about the family. You’re the one who’s embarrassing!"
Brett was over six-foot-three, and Mother Abbey was barely five-foot-three. Brett grabbed Mother Abbey and easily dragged her out.
"Murder! Murder... let me go." Not getting what she wanted, Mother Abbey was unwilling to leave and continued causing a scene.
"President Johnson, I need to take an afternoon off."
"Go ahead."
"Thank you, President Johnson."
The office fell silent. Tessa Harrington, with her chubby face, patted her chest and said, "So scary, it scared the baby to death."
"What are you scared of? She can’t eat you."
"I’ve always heard Sister Vivian’s mom is exceptional. Now I’ve seen it, truly eye-opening. Without comparison, there is no happiness. Turns out my mom is the best mom in the world. They don’t take a penny of the money I earn and even often support me. Oh, tonight I plan to go home, buy something, and be filial to my mom."
Tessa was a local from Sileria City. Her family was well-off, her parents both senior engineers, retired now, with decent pensions. Being an only child, Tessa was naturally cherished.
Sienna Johnson frowned, "I remember your salary is in the B-tier, over 9000 a month. You have no boyfriend, no children, and don’t have to support your parents. Where does your money go?"
"President Johnson, the cost of living in Sileria is skyrocketing. That salary isn’t even enough for a handbag..."
Tessa walked over, looked at the bracelet on Sienna’s wrist, and asked, "President Johnson, did Sixth Master give you this bracelet?"
"How did you know?"
"President Johnson, you’re so stingy, you wouldn’t buy a 30-thousand-dollar bracelet. Hehe... it must be from our super-rich Sixth Master. Oh, I’m so envious. If only I could find someone like Sixth Master..."
Sienna looked at the bracelet on her wrist, surprised at its value, "Is it really that expensive?"
"Not only expensive, but it’s also a limited edition."
Tessa stared at the bracelet like it was a piece of delicious meat, "...President Johnson, do you think I should save up for plastic surgery to look like you and then marry a rich guy?"
"Too costly! Too risky! Not feasible. I suggest you don’t take the gamble."
"President Johnson, why do you say so? Please enlighten me!" Tessa clasped her hands in a pleading gesture.
"Looking like you do, it would take a few hundred thousand to look like me, so the cost is too high. Second, surgery has risks, and plastic surgery should be cautious. Haven’t you seen the news? A certain girl died on the operating table attempting to change her face. So the risk is too high."
"President Johnson, can you not be so discouraging?" Tessa pinched the baby fat on her face, dejected.
"Facts speak louder than words!"
Sienna posed with her hands framing her face, blinking her long eyelashes like little brushes. Tessa was filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.
"President Johnson, you’re so unfair!"
Sienna picked up a project plan and lightly tapped her, "Aspire for more! Marrying into a wealthy family is nothing; have the guts to become a wealthy family yourself and bring home a hunky husband."
