NovelEnglishChapter 1506 The Montclairs Will Fall Sooner or Later "Back then, we kept the Whitman family afloat. But now..." Tamia sipped her rose tea before continuing, 'It's none of our business anymore if they want to dig their own graves." Not long after she finished speaking, a middle-aged man stepped into the room.
Upon seeing him, Tamia's brows furrowed deeply. The very sight of her eldest son irked her. In him, she saw everything despicable about the Montclair family. If it weren't for his gambling addiction, their family wouldn't have fallen so far.

Alfred Montclair rubbed his palms together and grinned sheepishly. 'Mom, I've been a bit short on cash recently. First and foremost, I missed you, and second, well, I need smoney." Before Tamia could respond, Ophelia stood up. 'Alfred, Mom gave you 20 million last month! How did you spend it so fast?" Tamia's previously good mood evaporated, and her face darkened. "I didn't raise you just so you could leech off me! Did you really blow through 20 million that quickly? Do you think I'm made of money?" Tamia might have been less upset if they had still had that billion from the stock market. But with funds running low and Alfred showing up to ask for more, it was like pouring fuel on the fire.
Alfred, however, acted as if he hadn't heard her as he casually walked over to the couch. "Yeah. I spend money fast, sure, but I'm still your son. The things back then... You know as well as I do who played a major role in getting our family where it is today." Tamia immediately cut him off. 'We'll talk about money later, but keep your mouth shut. If anything goes out, you'll be the first one to end up behind bars!" "Don't be mad, Mom. I heard about the family matters-the girl from the Quinnell family dares to go against the Montclair family. I thought I'd cback and lend a hand, you know?" Alfred tried to sound helpful.
Tamia grew wary. "Your younger brother is handling these matters. Stay out of it." "Mom, we're both your sons. Yet, you're playing favorites.' Alfred's face darkened. "Fine, I won't interfere, but givethe money.
"I was the one who did those things to the Whitmans. I'll get caught in the crossfire if you go after them, so I need to leave first." Tamia had been planning to ignore him. But hearing his words, her eyes narrowed. 'I'll give you the money. But swear that you won't cback for at least five years after you leave this time!" "Don't worry, Mom. Once I get the money, all those secrets will cwithabroad." Alfred smirked with a wicked glint in his eyes. "Unlike the both of you, I'm not trying to destroy the Whitman family after gaining so much from them." Tamia ignored his accusations. She transferred the money to him before handing him a bank card. 'Leave tomorrow. Go to a distant country." Alfred pocketed the money without further protest. However, before leaving, he glanced at his usually quiet and obedient sister. "You pulled so many strings to marry Noah. Yet, even after the divorce, you're still using your tricks.
"I underestimated you, Ophelia. I thought you were different from Mom, but now I see you're just like her. There's no surprise there-you're her daughter, after all.

"But tell me, how long will the Whitman family tolerate this after everything you've done to Noah?" "Get out!" Tamia snapped, irritated that Alfred had hit a nerve.
Ophelia turned away, unwilling to acknowledge her half-brother from another mother.
It wasn't about using tricks-Noah had refused to listen to her and instead tober chose to protect that sister of his!
Now, even her own son wasn't on her side. After all these Whitman family years in them owed her for everything! X
