Chapter 162


    Mandy leisurely sipped her coffee before locking eyes with Delh. “I want you to transfer Mirabe to a


    different school. Any school other than Parkside High will do. I have


    connections. I can make it happen.”


    Delh blinked, taken aback. “I’m sorry, I’m not quite following. Why should my daughter have to


    transfer?”


    “Because she’s affecting Summer,” Mandy said bluntly, no mincing words.


    Delh couldn’t help butugh. “As far as I know, our daughters aren’t even in the same ss. What


    kind of ‘effect‘ are we talking about?”


    “You should really ask your daughter what she did to Summer,” Mandy said, her voice tinged with


    usation.


    Frowning, Delh was about to retort when Mandy cut in again. “Look, your daughter’s grades. aren’t


    the best. She’s struggling to keep up at Parkside High. Maybe a fresh start at a different school would


    be better for her self–esteem.”


    Delh stared incredulously at Mandy. Was she seriously suggesting Mirabe, who topped. her ss,


    had poor grades? It was like a joke.


    Ignoring Delh’s skeptical look, Mandy pulled out a check she had prepared earlier. “Thist should


    cover it. Keep your daughter away from the Gilbert family from now on.”


    Delh nced at the check and then back at Mandy, who looked like she had never seen so much

    “I just want to know how my daughter supposedly bullied Summer,” Delh redirected the


    conversation.


    Mandy didn’t really know what Mirabe had done, but she remembered her daughter’s hurt. feelings.


    Impatiently, she said, “Just ask your daughter.”


    “So, you don’t actually know?” Delh’s tone was mocking.


    Having dealt with Mandy’s irrationality before, Delh stood up. “Sorry, but my daughter isn’t going


    anywhere.”


    She picked up the check from the table, let it flutter to the ground, and raised an eyebrow defiantly.


    “This little amount wouldn’t even cover my daughter’s expenses. With that, she grasped her husband’s


    hand and walked out with an air of arrogance.


    Mandy’s face turned a shade of thunderous purple, especially after Delh’s dismissive check–tossing


    gesture. She was so furious that she nearly threw her coffee. “Ignorant, foolish, pretentious!” Mandy


    seethed under her breath.


    The butler beside her quickly scooped up the check from the floor. “Madam, please, calm

    Mandy’s gaze drifted to the window, where she caught sight of Delh and Shawn getting into their old


    Santana. She scoffed disdainfully. “You’re right. Why bother with people who’ve never seen the world?”


    Mandy sneered and turned away as if one more nce would sully.
