Chapter 20
“Claire has been working for us for over 20 years. Even if we have to let for over 20 years. Even if we have to let
her go, we should at least give her time to find another job.”
“I don’t like her and her daughter. They have to leave!”
Kathy looked confused. “Why?
Aren’t you and Jocie good friends?”
“Not really.”
Claire kept bowing her head. “Ms. Lindsey, I’m begging you, please let us stay! Jocie is about to graduate from college. Once she gets a job, she’ll be able to pay you back!”

Seeing her crying her eyes out, Kathy felt bad, and her heart softened.
“Mom, if you wanna help her, you can give them some money, but they can’t stay with us.
“Why?”
“There’s no real reason. Just trust me, okay?”
Charlotte was firm about it.
With no other choice, Kathy had
to kick Claire out, but she also gave her
some money.

everything she had taken from the Lindsey family.
Timothy, injured, was admitted to the hospital.
Evelin sighed, “Timo, look at the mess we’re in now.”
“Mom, don’t worry. Even without the Lindsey family’s help, I’ll make sure you live a good life.”
“Alas.”
“I need some money to get started now. How much do you have?”
“What for?”
“Don’t ask. Just give me all the money you have.”
“How much do you think that is? I’ve only got about 800,000 dollars.”
“Is that all?” Timothy looked disappointed.
“I’ve saved it up bit by bit. It’s our last resort.

“Transfer it to me, and I’ll find another way. Trust me, I’ll make a fortune.”

“I don’t think you should take this risk. What if you lose it all?”
“I won’t. I’ll make a killing. I’m sure of it.”
In his last life, Timothy used Charlotte’s dowry to fund an internet
venture.
It just so happened that it was the perfect time for internet live streaming, and he hit it big. He made his first fortune, and it set him up for the future.
This time around, he was going to take the same path, but better and

faster than before.
“Timo, what do you plan to do?” Evelin looked afraid and worried.
Her son was incompetent. She knew that.
What if he failed and they lost all of their money?
Lying there, Timothy said confidently, “Mom, rest assured. I’m interested in a project. It’s most promising. We’ll strike gold.”
Evelin pondered it and compromised eventually. “Well, 300,000 dollars. That’s it.”
Timothy was disappointed. “That’s far from enough. Mom, do something. Help me out.”
“How much do you want?”
“To start my business, I need eight million dollars, at least.”
In his previous life, Timothy invested in HiChat Live while live streaming was at its peak.

After that, he groomed his own Internet celebrities, and he became one of the best in the industry.
Money had never been a problem in the running of his business, and management and maintenance were good.

Sure enough, the company grew to be the biggest domestic live streaming platform, and he made a fortune.
Even better for him, Gregory was imprisoned; enraged, Kieran had a cerebral hemorrhage and was paralyzed. Thus, Timothy became one of the Bradford Group’s core executives and entered the upper class.

That was where his confidence came from.
“Timo, still, I think you should get Charlotte back. She’s the Lindsey family’s only daughter, after all. If you make her happy, everything she has will be yours eventually…”
“Mom, say no more. Living under the Bradford family’s roof, I have to tread carefully and listen to them. I’m fed up!
“I can’t continue to live like this. Without the Lindsey family’s help, I can still make a name for myself.”
Timothy was determined, believing he’d soon be the richest man in Freyburn.
“We can talk about it some other time. Get well first.” With a sigh, Evelin walked out of the ward to make lunch for him.

As soon as she left, Jocelynn snuck in with a fruit basket.
“Timo.”
Surprised, Timothy tried to sit up. “Jocie, what are you doing here?”
The wound hurt too much. He had to lie back.
