In the middle of Nora’s thoughts, Henry suddenly swept the cups on the coffee table onto the ground!
The cups broke into pieces with a loud bang.
Henry, whose veins on his forehead were bulging, stood where he was and yelled, “Nora, I’m your father!
This is something that’ll never change! You can forget about abandoning me and getting rich on your
own! You’ll go to jail if you don’t take care of me!”
Then, he looked back at Simon and said, “The Andersons have to give me an explanation regarding this
today! Either you draft a contract for the Carefree Pills’ dividends and give me the money immediately, or
get my daughter’s mentor change done first.Pick one!”
He sat back down on the sofa.
Simon frowned.
Henry flying into a rage all of a sudden, and his actions of slamming the coffee table and breaking the
cups shocked Miranda and Rachel.
However, Melissa and Mrs.Anderson remained as calm and steady as ever, seemingly used to such
scenes.
Simon was about to say something when Nora’s frosty voice rang out.
“I’d advise you to calm down a little.Otherwise, not only will you not get any money, but you’ll also have
to pay for these cups!”
Henry sneered, “Why? Are you planning to become deadbeats and not give me any money? If so, I don’t
mind making this matter known to the public! I’ll show everyone outside how the Andersons are hogging
the Smiths’ Carefree Pill!”

Nora asked lazily, “Who says the Carefree Pill belongs to my mother?”
As soon as she said that, everyone looked at her in shock.
Simon wanted to ask something, but Melissa held his hand and shook her head lightly.
Henry turned and glared at her menacingly.
“What did you say?”
Nora looked at the cups on the floor and said, “The Carefree Pill belongs to the Andersons.What does it
have to do with the Smiths?”
Henry jumped onto his feet.
“How can that be? It obviously belongs to your mother—”
“If my mother was the one who developed it, then why didn’t you open a pharmaceutical factory all these
years? Wouldn’t you have made a fortune a long time ago?’ Nora spoke slowly and coolly, but her
argument was a convincing one.
Both Simon and Melissa also looked at Henry hesitantly.
She was right.
Why did Yvette hold on to the pill formula and keep it a secret from Henry? Henry’s expression changed
a few times.
How would he know anything about Carefree Pills or whatever it was called? The books in the study
upstairs were all Yvette’s.
She had a lot of writings and drawings to do with a lot of different topics in there.
After she had died, he couldn’t be bothered to take care of them at all, let alone know what they were.
Besides, even though he and Yvette were husband and wife in name, nobody knew that they had never
consummated their marriage before.
He was more like a nominal father that Yvette had given her daughter! He didn’t understand why Yvette
had taken a fancy to him, either…
Later, Yvette died.
It should already be considered a blessing that he hadn’t taken all those things as rubbish and thrown
them away.
How would he possibly know that they were actually so valuable…
In the middle of Henry’s thoughts, Nora said, “I obviously found the formula at the Andersons'”
Henry understood now—Nora was planning to push him away! He immediately shouted, “Nora! You
unfilial daughter! How dare you lie!”
Nora looked as calm as ever.
She said, “I’m the one who took out the formula, so naturally, I have the final say as to where I took it
from.You claim that the formula belongs to the Smiths.In that case, do you have any evidence to
substantiate your claim?”
Henry”???”
He had immediately gone upstairs and entered Yvette’s study when he learned about the Carefree Pill.
It was only then that he realized that it had long been cleaned out.
All the books had been burned.
Thus, he didn’t have any evidence at all! If he had the Carefree Pill’s formula, he would’ve sold it to the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAndersons’ competitors a long time ago.
Why would he still have to come all the way here to beg others for money?! Henry said angrily, “That’s
just pure sophistry!”
“Really?”
Nora took out her cell phone.
“In that case, we can only call the police.Also, allow me to remind you that the cups you just broke are
antiques from the 1600s worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.You have to pay for them.”
What she said daunted Henry.
He frowned and said viciously, “Nora! You’re blackmailing me!”
Nora raised her phone.
“So, shall I call the police?”
Henry/!!”He felt exactly as aggrieved and frustrated in this instant as how smug he had been just now!
Simon and Melissa had also recovered and caught on.
Simon stood and said, “The Carefree Pill is said to have been developed by Yvette, but we, the
Andersons, actually developed it ourselves.Mr.Smith, you have to provide evidence when you come
straight here to snatch things from others.Do you have any evidence? If not, what you’re doing is
tantamount to slander!”
Melissa’s voice was gentle but stern.
She said, “If you continue to pester us, we’ll call the police, Mr.Smith.”
At the sight of them becoming aggressive, Henry found himself at a loss at once.
He exchanged a look with Wendy.
The wealthy families in New York were ultimately still a lot classier.
