Chapter 51
Grandma Sue's expression turned stony. How was she supposed to wrap everything up neatly when
the situation had been blown into such monstrous proportions? It would be too obviously biased if she
did not try to appease Yvonne. However, she could not bring herself to throw Harvey out of the house.
Yvonne had raked in quite a tidy fortune for the Sues, but to Grandma Sue, her worth would never
surpass that of Harvey's. Furthermore, only Harvey could carry on the Sue legacy.
"Brother Johann, I'm very grateful for your help with our family matter," Grandma Sue told him. "Just tell
m e how much you want."
Johann's intention of making extra profit was a mere excuse. Samuel had instructed him to do this, and
he merely followed orders. "Seeing that you’re an upstanding citizen, Grandma Sue, and I'm not an
insensible person, I'll see you again when you have settled the matter.”
He left the office with Gareth after he finished speaking.
Silence suffocated the air of the meeting room. Harvey kneeled before his grandmother, barely
breathing.
His other relatives were also silent. Yvonne was the person in charge of the development of the West
City,
and the Sue family's growth depended on their cooperation with the Weakriver Real Estate. Yet Harvey
dared to do something so heinous at this crucial point in time. Even if Grandma Sue was biased toward
him, it was likely that she would dole out a heavy punishment for him.
"Yvonne, since he was the one who sabotaged you, you get to decide how you want to deal with him,"
Grandma Sue said to her.
Yvonne was not stupid. Grandma Sue would have never let her make the final call if she had truly
decided to punish Harvey. Her words revealed that she did not have the guts to go through with it.
Besides, Yvonne knew that her grandmother might not execute a ridiculous request that she made.
Rather, the old woman would mark this as an unsettled score.
"I think it's better if you make the decision, Grandmother," Yvonne said. Although she harbored extreme
resentment in her heart, she had no choice but to rein it in.
Grandma Sue naturally nodded her head. "Don’t come t o the office for now," she said to Harvey.
"Properly reflect upon what you've done at home."
Harvey dipped his head, a smile playing at his lips. He had concocted such a hoo-hah, yet his
grandmother had only told him to reflect on the situation. It looked like he still holds the number one
spot in Grandma's heart.
"I know I was wrong, Grandma," he said. "I'll definitely reflect on myself during this period of time."
"Nobody is allowed to bring up this matter from now o n," Grandma Sue told the other relatives.
She was obviously protecting him, and she did not bother to hide it.
Yvonne inhaled deeply. 'I'll prove it to you one day-that Harvey isn't the best candidate to take over the
Sue family', she thought as she looked at her grandmother.
The Sue family broke out into smiles only after Grandma Sue left the meeting room.
"Harvey, don't hold us against what we said earlier. If we said anything that was in your favor in that
situation, it would have agitated her even more instead."
"That’s right. It’s not like you don’t know Grandmother's temper. The more we help you, the more she
won’t be able to put her foot down and give the situation an out."
Harvey hauled himself onto his feet. His expression showed no hint of remorse. "You’re lucky this time,
Yvonne," he told her happily. "You've dodged a bullet, but you won't be so fortunate next time.
"You’re probably angry that Grandma is partial toward me. There's no way around it though. I'm the
most important person in her eyes. This is the difference
between you and me."
Yvonne’s fingers curled into fists when she heard Harvey's delighted tone. If even God felt anger, what
more she.
"Haven’t you already realized that you're just a tool for the Sues, Yvonne? You wouldn't even have the
right to enter the meeting room if it weren’t for the collaboration with Weakriver Real Estate. Think twice
before trying to go against us." Harvey deliberately walked to her side and said in a dark tone.
