Chapter 666 The Scandal Spreads

Unexpectedly, Sidney still refused to let go. Melissa clicked her tongue behind. No wonder Julia was so

willful. After all, she was backed by a rich and powerful father.

“As far as I know, it was your daughter who came to cause trouble, right?”

Keyon arched his eyebrows. He had figured out the whole matter before coming here. “I don’t think

you’re a narrow-minded person. Just let it be.”

Sidney didn’t want to rest. Yet, given that the two people in front of him were both big shots, it was not

good for him to fall out with them.

He darted a fierce glance at Melissa and left.

”Thank you, Mr. Boyle, Mr. Buckton.”

Seeing Sidney leave, Melissa slowly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at her two mentors.

At Shayna’s home.

Shayna had just gotten off work and dragged her tired body back home. The moment she opened the

door, she met Tucker head-on.

Tucker put on an arrogant look on his face. When he saw Shayna, he directly extended his hand. “Give

me the money.”

Shayna shook her head with satisfaction and walked past Tucker, trying to go back to her room.

“You have to give me the money today!”

Shayna was very disgruntled. Tucker leeched off of their parents and also spent Shayna’s own money.

Now he just asked her for money confidently.

“What do you want money for?“

“Of course to buy painting tools. I talked to Dad and Mom. They agreed.”

Shayna narrowed her eyes. Painting tools?

“You’re in the painting field, not me. If you want to buy painting tools, buy them yourself.”

Shayna had heard about the painting tools before. The good ones were expensive. Ordinary people

couldn’t afford them.

“Mom and Dad also asked me to come to you.”

Unexpectedly, Tucker still didn’t want to give up. He grabbed Shayna’s hand and didn’t allow her to

leave.

“Let me go!”

Shayna gathered her strength and pried Tucker’s hand away. “I don’t earn much. If you squander all

my money, I’ll be broke.”

“What do you mean by saying that I squander your money? I’m doing this for my career!” Tucker still

said cheekily. “Aren’t you working at Star Entertainment? I heard that your pay is decent. Now you say

you don’t earn much. I won’t buy it at all!”

Shayna glared at him fiercely and refused, “Even if I have money, I don’t need you to spend it for me. If

you want to buy painting tools, buy them yourself. Leave me alone.”

She waved her hand and was about to leave when Tucker pulled her back.

“What do you mean? You don’t intend to buy them for me?”

“No, I won’t!”

Shayna widened her eyes with determination.

“Will you buy them or not?”

Tucker directly put his arm around Shayna’s neck.

“Even if you kill me today, I still won’t agree.”

Shayna breathed rapidly and still didn’t want to let go.

Tucker didn’t expect that Shayna, who was always weak, would be so tough.

However, he had been used to taking money from Shayna, so he would not think about this.

“Alright, you won’t give me the money, right? Just wait and see,” Tucker said fiercely.

Then, he turned around and walked into their parents’ room.

Shayna had a headache. Tucker always did this to make her pay for him obediently.

As such, she worked harder in the company. Otherwise, she could not support her family at all.

Sure enough, after a while, Bernard Heyton and Esther Heyton, Shayna’s parents, came out of their

room.

They glared coldly at Shayna while Tucker snickered behind them.

“How dare you refuse to pay for your brother’s painting tools? Is this how you pay us back?”

Esther pointed fingers at Shayna and scolded the latter. Shayna lowered her head and did not speak.

She had been a bit introverted since she was young, and a large part of her personality was due to her

family.

“Those tools are too expensive…”

Shayna’s voice was very low, but her parents still heard it.

“Well, now that you’re working for a big company, your monthly salary is tens of times that of painting

tools. Now you’re saying that they’re expensive. What should your brother do?”

Esther still didn’t want to give up. She showed sheer partiality to Tucker. “Your brother is going to do a

great thing in the future. He enjoys certain fame in the painting field now. If he doesn’t even have the

painting tools, wouldn’t all these efforts be wasted?“

Hearing this, Shayna could not help but secretly mock herself inwardly.

Tucker was merely a painter, but it was uncertain whether he was really accomplished.

Shayna put on a cold look, which made Esther even more dissatisfied.

“What kind of attitude is that? Now you’re talking back to us!”

Esther scolded her again. Shayna would have been in tears in the past.

However, now, she didn’t even shed a single tear.

“You brat, good for you! Now you’re backed by some big shots, you just wanna abandon your parents?

How can there be such an ingrate like you in this world!“

Esther talked more and more loudly. Her words were spread to the neighborhood.

In the past, Shayna was very docile and obedient. She had never been so angry. The neighbors all

knew that Shayna was working at Star Entertainment now and praised her for her accomplishments.

And now, Esther was scolding her so fiercely in the house, which undoubtedly attracted the attention of

the people around.

“What’s going on? Isn’t she usually very nice?“

The neighbors began to discuss.

The matter escalated and, in the end, it was spread across the whole block.

Melissa just happened to pay a visit to Shayna’s home at this time, and on the way here, she

inadvertently heard the neighbors discussing Shayna.

Out of curiosity, Melissa also heard a few words. They were all cursing Shayna.

They called Shayna unfilial, ungrateful, etc. It made Melissa very puzzled.

Although Shayna was timid, Melissa knew that Shayna’s hard work was partially for her family. Now,

her neighbors called her unfilial?

Hearing this, Melissa immediately rushed to Shayna’s home.

Melissa knocked on the door. It was Esther who opened the door. Melissa saw that Esther had pulled a

long face. It seemed that Esther must have flared up.

“Who are you?”

“Hello, Mrs. Heyton. I’m Melissa, Shayna’s supervisor. Is Shayna home?”

Hearing this, Esther immediately put on a respectful face.

After all, Melissa was Shayna’s supervisor, so Esther surely had to be amicable. “Yes, yes, she is in her

room.”

Melissa was led to Shayna’s room, and Esther left. Just as Melissa stepped into the door, she heard

the sound of crying faintly.

“What’s wrong?”

Melissa stepped forward and stroked Shayna’s slightly trembling shoulder.

“Boohoo, Meli.” Seeing Melissa, Shayna could not hold back her emotions. “My brother wants to buy

expensive painting tools. He asked me for the money, and I refused to give it to him. Then, my parents

called me an ingrate.”

Melissa subconsciously frowned.

She didn’t expect that Esther, who looked nice to her, would do such a thing.

“Alright, don’t cry. I’ll help you settle this.”

“Really?”

Shayna raised her head and snuffled a bit.
