While Amanda was deep in thought, her phone rang. It was Vivien calling.
“Hi, dear. What’s wrong?”
Vivien’s voice on the other end of the line was filled with dissatisfaction.
“Why is my allowance so small lately? I went shopping with my friends, but my card showed that I didn’t have enough balance. Do you have any idea how embarrassed I was?”
Hearing this, Amanda felt a little guilty.
Now that she had given all her money to Tess, she could only quietly cut down Vivien’s allowance.
“Mom! You used to say that your daughter should be raised well. How could you do this to me?”
Amanda could only comfort Vivien with the words that Tess had used on her before.
“You see, the company has encountered some financial difficulties lately, so I had no choice. When things get better, your allowance Will be doubled. I’ll buy you whatever you want!”
“Then… I want a set of limited edition skin care products!”
“Okay, okay. I’ll buy them all!”
After hanging up, Amanda’s expression darkened.
Tess hadn’t come back to the company these past few days, nor did she bother to call. Amanda was beginning to suspect that her niece was hiding something from her.
Amanda was really worried, so she decided to call Tess.

However, as soon as she reached for her phone, the door was suddenly pushed open from outside. In strode Amanda’s assistant.
Annoyed, Amanda snapped at her impatiently, “Don’t you know to knock?”
But the assistant couldn’t care less about this. She said in a panic, “Ma’am, the construction team is making trouble here. They’ve blocked the gate to the building!”
Amanda slammed her fists on the desk and stood up in shock.
“What?
How dare they! What the hell are the security guards doing?”
“There are too many of them, ma’am! More than a hundred people gathered downstairs. They said that they haven’t been paid yet, and the person in charge was even dismissed by Miss Green! They have no leader, so they’re using their tools as weapons and they’re demanding an explanation!”
They weren’t paid?
Then what the hell happened to her money?
What the fuck was Tess doing?!
