Chapter 299
However, Warren instead nodded and said, "You know me best.I''m the most afraid of her going back to
her parents’ ce.Let me quickly go upstairs and appease her...If I fail I''ll have to ask you to give in
and apologize to her."
He then went upstairs without looking back, leaving only Yvonne standing downstairs.
She was so mad that she had to take a deep breath before she could suppress her anger.
She knew it! Warren didn''t have a conscience at all.
Now that he had a wife, he didn''t protect his sister anymore! Did the two of them really think that she
didn''t have any means of keeping them within her control, though? Yvonne lowered her head and
smirked.
She would just wait for Warren toe and beg her.
Half an hourter, after Warren cried, begged, and coaxed her, Maureen finally gave in and stayed at
the Smiths’ for the time being.
She and her husband were truly in love, after all.
Besides, even though their son''s injury looked serious, the doctor said that they were just simple
bruises when he came over to take a look.
Warren said, "That''s my son I''m hitting, so I will definitely hold back! He won''t break so easily, don''t
worry!"
Maureen:"!!"
Not long after the two of them made up, Warren''s cell phone rang.
When he answered, the technician on the other side said, "Go and look at the game, Mr.Smith! There''s
another bug! It''s a different one this time! We still haven''t found the cause of it yet.Can you ask
Ms.Yvonne for help again?"
Warren:"??"
Maureen:"????"
Maureen was someone who refused to embarrass herself .
If she asked someone for help, she would either pay them or do something for them.
No matter what, she would always repay the debt she owed.

She had only just been angry at Yvonne a moment ago because of Brandon, yet she had to beg her for
help now? There was no way she could make herself do that.
Warren scratched his head.
"It''s okay, she''s my younger sister.It''ll be fine if I go and approach her.It doesn''t count as begging her
for help.We''re family!"
Maureen grabbed her husband who was about to go out."I''ve had enough, Warren! Look at your son''s
butt! If we were really family, would you have given him a beating if he stepped on your feet?"
Warren was taken aback.
Maureen pointed at him and ranted, "It''s exactly because you always feel like you owe her a favor that
you unknowingly behave as if you''re beneath her.Yes, Yvonne is indeed from the Smiths’ direct lineage,
but at the bottom of it all, she''s still just an adopted daughter.I''ve never seen you so wimpy even when
you''re in front of Joel! Why is it that you can''t even say a single word in front of her?"
Maureen became more and more aggrieved as she spoke.
Her eyes turned red, and she cried as she shouted, "Think about how much injustice you have made
me suffer all these years? Let''s just talk about the Almas caviar the other time.You clearly know that I
love caviar the most while it doesn''t matter to her whether she eats it or not, yet you still forced me to
give her two-thirds of it...Do you know? My mom only managed to buy the Almas caviar after asking
someone for a favor and spending a lot of money! Even she couldn''t bear to eat it herself, and had
given them all to me!"
Maureen wiped her tears and went on.
"I was willing to overlook certain things before, but we have to make things clear now! She is your
younger sister, and you have a sisterplex.It''s not a problem that you want to spoil her, but she isn''t
rted to me by blood at all! Neither has she done anything for me! Why do I also have to repay her for
the favors she''s done for you?!"
Warren scratched his head.
He panicked and said, "Don''t cry, dear.I...I just thought that good things ought to be shared, that''s all"
"Yeah, right! Never mind if she also likes Almas caviar, but the problem is that she doesn''t like it at all! I
saw with my own eyes that she couldn''t bring herself to eat the Almas caviar after it was prepared, so
she gave it to Florence, the housekeeper! I''ve kept all this to myself and have never brought it up
before, but don''t you dare go too far!
"You have two choices today, Warren Smith.One—you go to her, and we divorce! I won''t take this
bullshit anymore! The second—remove her software consultant position in thepany, or pay her a
sry.You can even give her dividends if you want! Just don''t owe her any more favors "
Maureen hugged herself angrily and sobbed loudly after she spoke.
She was full of grievances after her son suffered a beating.
Yet now she still had to go and beg Yvonne for help! She was so goddamn full of grievances that she
couldn''t get any more aggrieved than that! Brandon was already in pain because of the beating, but he
had been holding it back all this time.
However, when he saw that his mother was upset, he immediately walked over and pushed Warren.
Then, he hugged Maureen and also burst into tears.
He said, "Don''t cry, Mommy! Don''t cry! We won''t talk to bad Daddy anymore! If he makes you angry, I
will take off the respirator for his oxygen tank after I grow up!" Warren''s lip corners spasmed.
"You little brat! Do you have a conscience or not?!"
Maureen also burst intoughter after holding it back for a brief moment.
Brandon''s words immediately dispelled the sad atmosphere in the room.
Warren stepped forward and put his arm around Maureen’ s shoulders.
"Alright, alright, dear.Although I don''t really understand what you were saying, nor do I understand
what''s so delicious about the Almas caviar, I''ll listen to you, okay? We won''t go to Yvonne anymore.I''ll
hire an expert hacker from outside, okay?"
The sniffling Maureen nodded.
She took another deep breath before she looked at Warren and asked, "Really?"
"Yes, really."
Warren then sighed and said, "Why didn''t you tell me about the Almas caviar earlier? Had you told me,
I would have bought you some.Given the Smiths’ connections, isn''t it a piece of cake to just buy
some?"
Maureen pounded his shoulder.
"Do you think Almas caviar is that easy to find?"
Warren, however, was full of confidence.
"Don''t worry, I''ll definitely buy some for you!"
The family of three finally reconciled and hugged one another happily.
Because Maureen had cried a lot, her eyes were all red and swollen, so she was too embarrassed to
go downstairs for dinner.
Warren decided to bring the food up instead.
When he went downstairs, he happened to see Yvonne and Joel eating.
He smiled and said, "The little brat''s butt is all swollen because of me, so he doesn''t want toe
down.We''ll eat upstairs instead."
He then instructed the servants to deliver the food to their room.
Joel didn''t think much about it and concentrated on feeding Mia instead.
Yvonne raised her eyebrows.
She''d thought that Warren wouldn''t be able to stop himself from speaking to her.
This way, Maureen would definitely be embarrassed and would force Brandon toe over and
apologize to her.
She simply loved seeing Maureen having to practice forbearance even though she was clearly feeling
terribly aggrieved.
She was the true mistress of the household here! But why wasn''t Warren acting ording to n?
Upstairs, the family of three went to sleep after dinner.
However, reality always called after a heartwarming moment.
After sleeping for some time, Maureen was woken up by the heat.
She opened her eyes and found that Brandon''s limbs were all over her.
The little fellow was as hot as a furnace.
She pushed the little fellow off of her and got up, intending to drink some water.
It was then that she found that there was no one on the other side of Brandon.
Surprised, she stood up.
She could vaguely hear soundsing from the balcony in the suite''s study.
She drank a ss of water and walked over.
When she reached there, she saw that because Warren didn''t want to wake the two of them, not only
was he in the study, but he had even gone to the balcony and was on the phone with someone.
He lowered his voice and said, "You can''t find the cause? How can that be? Didn''t I say that you can
get external help? If it really doesn''t work, you can borrow someone from the Smiths.Joel has a
hacker!"
The person he was on the phone with replied, "I''ve already approached him, Boss, but he says that he
couldn''t tell what the problem is.What do we do now?"
Things would get really tricky if even the Smiths’ hacker couldn''t detect the issue.
Warren frowned.
The other party, who was in charge of operations, said, "It’s been more than 24 hours since the game
went live.The forums are full of negative feedback right now.If we still can''t fix the bug within 36 hours,
the yers will definitely doubt our capabilities.We could still vaguely find the cause for the previous
bug, but we simply can''t find it at all this time!"
Warren ran his hand through his hair, so troubled that he was almost going bald.
"What would happen if we fail to fix it?"
The person in charge of operations stayed quiet for a moment before he replied, "We''ll lose all the
money we invested in the initial stages! Boss, you said that you wanted to create a perfect game, so
from production nning to art and design, we hired only the best.In fact, we even hired a master artist
to do thendscape designs, so every drawing is super expensive! The loss is a little too much..."
