Chapter 39: Hello, Gold Digger 

Amy, lacking experience with the harsh realities of the world, approached the situation with unrealistic optimism. She believed that bringing Hanson home would lead to her father’s immediate understanding. She hadn’t explained the specifics of her conflict with her family, simply asking Hanson to accompany her. 

Brown’s mother, for the first time, displayed genuine enthusiasm. She felt her son was held back ‘by his family background; with a little help, his future would be limitless. If Amy reconciled with her family, it would greatly benefit her son. She didn’t consider the possibility of her son being rejected; she assumed they would eagerly welcome such a capable son–in–law. “Amy, dear, if I were well enough, I’d go myself. Please, talk to your family; don’t make trouble for me,” Brown’s mother said, handing her son money to buy nice gifts for the visit. The other patients rolled their eyes. Hadn’t Amy just said she wanted him to accompany her home? Brown’s mother was acting as if it were a done deal. 

Amy, despite recognizing Brown’s mother’s true nature, had managed to maintain her composure. She carefully played along, hiding her feelings from Hanson. Lily would’ve been impressed by her growth! 

Brown’s mother, from a humble background, lacking both a good family and a good job, only had her son to boast about – and now, another. 

Within half an hour, the nurses on that floor knew that Brown’s mother’s son had a wealthy father–in–law, that he was about to marry into immense wealth. In Hanson’s mother’s village, marrying young was common, so she didn’t find it unusual, ignoring the knowing glances when she mentioned that her son was still in high school. Seventeen or eighteen was below the legal marriage age, and it was considered early dating. The woman was already acting as both daughter–in–law and future mother–in–law. 

Those who’d initially felt sorry for Brown’s mother now saw a different side. Her greedy, self–serving demeanor was utterly distasteful. 

She wasn’t usually this way; in her work, she was rather meek. Her newfound confidence had inflated her ego. 

manager. 

Brown’s mother was thrilled. Amy’s family was wealthy, yet she was still subservient, utterly devoted to her son, even offering to pay off his gambling debts! After discharge, she’d bring her husband back. She’d get a job at Amy’s family’s company – perhaps as a gatekeeper or a low–level 

Their connection would ensure she wasn’t mistreated! Her son was successful, and her future daughter–in–law was easily controlled; Brown’s mother felt a surge of hope.: As Brown’s mother was boasting, Lily learned about the situation, just as the butler received a message from Amy. Amy asked when her father would be home. The butler sought Lily’s 

instructions. 

“Don’t reply.” 

Standard methods wouldn’t work against Brown’s mother. Hanson’s dreams of becoming a gold digger would be shattered. 

The butler bowed. He was now Lily’s most faithful servant! No wonder Mr. Janson trusted him

Chapter 39: Hello, Gold Digger 

My father’s new girlfriend,” Amy said angrily, biting her lip.“I’ll wait outside! She can’t stop me from seeing my father!” 

“Hanson, my mother died when I was young,” Amy confessed, wiping away a tear. She’d once wondered why others had mothers, and she didn’t. She’d learned to ignore the absence of a mother figure; she’d always done well without one. Then her father got a new girlfriend… Her subservience to Brown’s mother, despite disliking her and her own fiery temper, stemmed from her longing for a mother figure. She was unconsciously trying to experience what it would be like to care for her mother. 

As Brown’s mother grew more demanding, Amy realized her mother would have been far more caring and empathetic. 

Wiping away her tears, Amy continued, “I’ve never mentioned my family at school. You probably guessed from my last name the Janson family. My family owns J&J Corporation.” 

It wasn’t that easy to guess, as many wealthy students at the school had the last name Janson. Amy’s unusually generous nature was more telling. Wealthy families didn’t spoil their children endlessly; rich kids had limited allowances–tens of thousands, sometimes hundreds of thousands, rarely millions. Amy was an outlier; she spent money recklessly. She casually bought million–dollar cars (which she didn’t drive because she didn’t have a license), gave away expensive jewelry without a second thought… 

Hanson had suspected Amy’s wealth, but not J&J Corporation. He’d assumed she was the daughter of the CEO of HappyPlus Daily Chemicals, whose last name was Janson. The CEO was known for spoiling his daughter, even posting about her going to high school. 

“J&J Corporation?” Hanson gasped, fighting to control his expression. It was a name associated with immense wealth. He knew the company through a bidding process; the client was a J& Corporation subsidiary. He’d been stunned by its power and influence. 

Amy was the daughter of J&J Corporation?! 

Hanson’s breathing grew rapid, overwhelmed by this windfall. 

“Yes, my 

dad’s a workaholic. He just gives money; he doesn’t really care about me. But this time… Amy sighed, seemingly both encouraging and convincing herself, “He’ll like you!” 

As she finished speaking, a nurse rushed in, breathless. It was the nurse from Brown’s mother’s floor. 

“Ms. Moore’s family! We finally found you!” Mia was Brown’s mother’s name. 

“Ms. Moore is causing a commotion in the ward. Please come and calm her down!” 

Hanson and Amy rushed towards the ward. Passing the nurse, Amy noticed a strange look in her eyes. Did she know something?
