No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 139

York looked at Ann.

Ann put on a stern face and scolded the boy. "Ethan, how many times has Mommy told you? This is Mr. Ferguson. You are not to call him that."

At his mother's sharp tone, Ethan burst into tears. "No! I want Mr. Ferguson to be my daddy!"

Laurel, who was standing nearby, immediately pointed a finger at Ann and began to yell. "I worked so hard to send you to college, and you disappear for six years without a word, only to come back with this burden! You've shamed our entire family! What's wrong with a child wanting a father? If you can't give him a happy life, why did you have him in the first place?"

Ann's face went pale, and she stumbled backward.

She clutched her head as if suffering a massive breakdown. "Mom, please, please stop yelling at me!"

York's face was grim as he walked over to Ann and guided her to the sofa.

Seeing her cue, Laurel quickly took Ethan by the hand. "Come on, Grandma will take you to the supermarket to buy a toy."

York turned and poured Ann a glass of water.

Her eyes were red with grievance. "I'm sorry, York. I didn't mean to trouble you."

York sat on the sofa opposite her and once again produced a bank card.

He placed it on the coffee table. "Ann, stop trying to be so strong. Take this card and buy a house. The rest will be more than enough for you and your son to live on."

Ann lowered her gaze to the bank card.

She knew the amount on it would be beyond her wildest dreams. But she had changed her mind. She didn't want money; she wanted resources. The more he tried to compensate her, the more she had to refuse. She needed him to feel guilty, to feel indebted to her.

Once York divorced that woman, the position of Mrs. Ferguson would be hers. She would marry into the Ferguson family honorably and become the matriarch of Capital City's most powerful family.
