Chapter 621
Predictably, Yorick took the money and started gambling away. He won more than $30,000 the night before and
spent half the amount to pay for a bunch of friends meals and drinks.
Maisie squinted. If he used that money to start a business, she would find someone to help him out in secret. It was
great when people changed after making mistakes. She could have given him a chance because this uncle of hers
had never been bad to her father and her.
But too bad, he just wouldn’t turn over a new leaf, so she couldn’t help him.
She sent a message to her bodyguard.
After Madam Vanderbilt found out, she angrily went to the rental Yorick was staying in.

Yorick smoked a cigarette on the couch. He had a hangover and just woke up after half a day had passed. He
couldn’t care less about his mother’s questioning. “My friend lent me some money to gamble. So what if I won and
used it for drinks?” “You’ve abandoned your mother and son. Are your friends more important now?” Madam
Vanderbilt was almost getting a stroke.
Yorick dropped the cigarette on the floor, flattened it, and then stood up. “Yes, they are more important than you.
You call yourself my mother, but what have you done so far? And Hector, you were the one who coddled him too
much. Now you want me to take him back?”
He mocked, “I would rather not have you as a mother, and I could do without that useless son too!”
Madam Vanderbilt’s pupils shrank, and her fingers trembled. “W-What did you say?”
Yorick sat on the couch. “All my misfortunes were because of you. Ever since Dad died, I’ve kept quiet for a long
time. I’m going to imagine that my mother is no longer around from now on. What happens to you and Hector will
no longer be any of my business!”
Madam Vanderbilt shuddered and turned pale as a sheet. She never imagined that her own son would cut her off.
She fainted because of all the anger.
She was lying on a hospital bed when she woke up, but only Hector was by her side.
“Grandma, what am I supposed to do if anything happens to you?” When he saw that she was awake, Hector
complained, “Dad left us, for good.”
Madam Vanderbilt already had a headache, but now that her grandson was complaining, she became anxious.
“Hecky, don’t cry. You are your father’s son .He wouldn’t just leave you.”
Hector calmed down when he heard that.

The doctor walked in. “Madam Vanderbilt?”
Hector got up and walked to the doctor, “Doctor, how’s my grandma?”
The doctor took a look at her charts and said, “She has high blood pressure and has to take care of her temper.
Stop making her angry. High blood pressure can cause cerebral thrombosis, which can be lifethreatening.”
When the doctor left, he turned and said to him, Please settle the bills at the reception.”
Madam Vanderbilt had another problem. The bills cost a lot, so she asked, “Hecky, who sent me here? Was it your
father?”
“No, it was someone I didn’t recognize;” Hector replied.
Madam Vanderbilt’s heart felt cold. Had her son really left her to die?
When she noticed Hector was not moving, she said, “Hecky, please help me settle the bill.”
Hector turned to look at her, avoiding her eyes. “But Grandma, we’re almost out of money.”
