Julia was frightened by Seth's glare and didn't dare to make a scene anymore. Biting her lower lip, she tugged Seth's shirt and said piteously, "Don't get mad at me. Get mad at her. She's the one who provoked me first."
Seth looked at Julia quietly. He was well aware that Julia had been bullying Tasha ever since she moved in. It was only normal that Tasha couldn't stand it anymore.
But Seth needed the support of the Walker family. Even if Julia was an annoying little bitch, he couldn't afford to do anything to her right now.
"I'm not mad at you. Why would you waste your time on such a shallow and stupid woman?" Seth softened his tone to comfort the aggrieved Julia.
Julia instantly cheered up, shooting Tasha a smug smile.
Tasha forced a smile but said nothing.
She knew that this was probably what he really thought of her. They had been married for so many years but Seth had never given her the light of day.
Tasha used to think that it was because of his pride. It was true that she wasn't as excellent as him. Now, Tasha realized that Seth looked down not just upon her, but everyone.
Indeed, Seth had never thought highly of his wife. In his eyes, she was an incompetent and stupid woman who only cared about money. For the sake of money, she was willing to abandon her own child.
But on second thought, that made things easier for Seth. A greedy woman like Tasha was simple and easy to control. At least, she didn't pose a threat to him.
Seth glanced at the drawer that was opened by Tasha just now. Inside lay several pieces of gold jewelry that had been gifted to him.
Seth sneered and glanced at the laptop on the table. It looked untouched, so he didn't think too much about it.
"Come with me," Seth said to Tasha coldly.
