Chapter 1668
Before Harvey could react, Kelly’s face turned as dark as night. He exclaimed, “June Lee, what exactly do you mean by that?”
“Who’s the useless one? And who’s the unattainable one exactly?”
“Harvey and Hazel are true childhood sweethearts!”
“I watched him grow up. Of course I know what he’s like!”
“If he’s willing to be the son-in-law of my family, I’d be extremely happy!”
“The most important thing about a man isn’t how much he makes, but the responsibility that he takes!”
“You two are the same, only looking at the surface!”
“In my eyes, Harvey just doesn’t have his own platform yet. If he does, he could make hundreds and thousands of dollars if he wanted to!”
“I called him here tonight to tell him that I have a position for him as a higher up of the company. If he wants to, he can join right in anytime!”
Kelly was decisive. He treated Harvey extremely well, to the point that Harvey froze.
“What?! You’re going to reserve a spot as a higher up for this filth?!”
Before Harvey could reply, June jumped in anger.
“What standard does he have? What can he do? You want him to be a higher up without any prior experience? You want him to make hundreds and thousands of dollars?”
“Do you have a few screws loose or something?”
“Besides, didn’t you say that you wouldn’t let friends and relatives into your company?”
“You wouldn’t even let my cousin be hired even after he begged so many times, but you’d let Harvey be a higher up just like that?!”
“Kelly Malone, do you want to die?!”
“I’ll tell you right now! I oppose this idea entirely!”
If Harvey actually entered the company as a higher up with hundreds and thousands of dollars worth of salary, he might even do his best to stay in the company and cling onto Hazel, all the while plotting to snatch the entire Malone family’s assets. That would be a big problem!
Thinking of this possibility, June glared hatefully at Harvey.
Kelly’s expression worsened.
“It’s good enough that I approve of the idea. Are you telling me that I have no right to speak in this household?”
June pointed at Kelly’s and exclaimed loudly, “Right to speak? Why would you even have the right to speak for a live-in son-in-law?”
“Pfft!”
These words were clearly directed at Harvey. Every single insult was thrown toward Harvey, every statement was against him not having the right to be in the Malone family.
Harvey couldn’t get angry at the insults when he saw Kelly and June arguing again. He stood up to try to mediate between them.
“Aunty, Uncle, stop fighting over me…”
Suddenly, Hazel had a bright idea.
“Mom, Dad, stop that. It’s just a job.”
“There’s no need to fight like this.”
“I didn’t want to fight either, but your mother is crossing the line! Harvey is also half my family, so what’s wrong with taking care of him?” Kelly exclaimed, heartbroken.
“When we were in South Light before, we would have starved to death if it weren’t for Harvey’s parents!”
“But your mother doesn’t know what it means to repay kindness!”
June chuckled coldly.
“Repay kindness? His parents gave us seventy dollars!”
“Why don’t I pay him back a hundredfold? Here’s seven thousand dollars, take it and leave!”
June took out five stacks of money as she spoke and threw it right on Harvey’s face.
“You…!”
Kelly badly wanted to slap June.
However, Hazel swiftly jumped in front of Kelly.
“Dad, Mom’s right. The company’s rules state that we shouldn’t hire any friends or relatives. It would be bad if you don’t abide by your own company’s rules!”
“But since his family had treated us with kindness, we won’t treat him shabbily either.”
“How about this? I’ll use my connections to get him into the Kaizen Group. How does that sound?”
