Chapter 577 Facade of Fools Hattie was already feeling upset, and when she heard that Amber had cto Icroln, her mood worsened. She had no intention of hiding her displeasure and vented her frustration openly to Harvey. "That old h*g has never liked me. Of all times, she chooses now to come! She's just here to make my life miserable!" When Harvey heard that Amber had arrived, he quickly saw an opportunity. What better chance to meet the family? He immediately suggested joining Hattie to meet Amber that evening.

"Hattie, don't worry. I'll go with you to see her. She won't give you a hard time." Hattie looked at him skeptically. "You want to cwith me? Ugh, this is such a headache. She'll probably give you the cold shoulder too. Every tshe sees me, she acts like I owe her a fortune." "Why would she do that? Trust me, Hattie, she won't treatthat way. After all, I'm not exactly a nobody." Harvey's words made Hattie think.

Right, Harvey had international connections. If she brought him along to meet Amber, Amber might be more cautious about how she treated her. She'd have to take Harvey into account. "Alright, Harvey, you can cwithtonight." Harvey smiled with satisfaction, wrapping an arm around Hattie's shoulder. "Hattie, trust me. I'll take good care of you. I love you so much." That evening, Amber waited for Hattie to arrive.

When Hattie showed up with Harvey, Amber's eyes quickly sized him up.

Violeta's words echoed in her mind-Harvey might have foreign connections, but his company was on the verge of bankruptcy.

He was just looking for someone to bail him out.

A man searching for a scapegoat and a woman trying to snag a wealthy husband-what a perfect match.

A hint of mockery flickered in Amber's eyes.

She cleared her throat and asked, "Hattie, who is this?" Hattie replied, "Mom, this is Harvey Webb, my boyfriend. He's a businessman overseas." Amber responded, "Oh, really? Harvey? Have a seat." Hattie noticed that Amber's tone was indeed more relaxed than usual.

She felt a surge of joy, thinking that Amber must be wary of Harvey's status.

Ha, Amber must be worried that having Harvey as my boyfriend would give Benson an edge, threatening Liam's position.

Hattie suppressed the smile threatening to spread across her face, feeling even more pleased with Harvey. Harvey was an incredibly skilled con artist. Although Amber had seen through him, she couldn't help but admire how well he played his part.

No wonder even Hannah, that money-obsessed woman, had fallen for his tricks.

Amber continued to chat with them casually for a while.

All three of them were playing their roles: Harvey was pretending to be a wealthy and influential man, Hattie was feeling smug but trying not to show it too much, and Amber was putting on a show of being wary of Harvey.

As they were about to leave, Hattie was inwardly thrilled.

"It's getting late, Mom. We'll head out now," she said.

Amber took a sip of water and asked casually, "Hattie, you two aren't thinking about getting married, are you?" Hattie froze for a moment.

Harvey's expression also stiffened slightly.

They were both surprised this wasn't something they had expected Amber to say.

Amber glanced at them and suddenly smiled. "Oh, I was just saying. It seems you haven't though about marriagelyet. That's probably for the best. After all, Hattie, you're still young-you can enjoy life a bit longer. Haha, go get srest." Hattie suddenly felt a surge of defiance.

She sensed a strong undertone of disdain in Amber's words.

Did Amber think Harvey would never marry me? Did she really look down onthat much!?

"Why not get married? Harvey treatsvery well. If two people are m compatible marriage is perfectly normal, right? Harvey, haven't you thought about marrying me?" Swr Harvey quickly replied, "Of course, I've definitely thought about it."

Hattie added, "See? He's planning to marry me. Mom, you don't need to worry about these things. We'll be going now! With that, Hattie pulled Harvey along and left. Amber watched them walk away, her gaze shifting to one of pity mixed with a touch of mockery.
