Chapter 59

Kenneth noticed Calista and Joanna’s cold, disdainful glares directed at them.

Oliver, in particular, wore a dominant and contemptuous expression.

The only person Kenneth had hoped would lend them support, Jason, let out a sigh and remained silent.

Jason would have done so if he intended to speak up for them. Instead, his silence made it clear that he stood by Oliver.

Kenneth suddenly realized that Jason, whom he believed he could sway, could not be swayed, and Oliver, whom he thought he could intimidate, could not be intimidated.

Especially Oliver, as he was not the brainless and spineless person Kenneth had imagined. All his hopes had turned to ashes.

After enduring for a while, Riley could no longer contain her anger. With her hands on her hips, she launched into a scolding tirade. “A bunch of country bumpkins! So what if you’ve made some money? What do you have to be proud of? Our family has a principal, a teacher, and a university student. What do you have? Country bumpkins!”

Calista could not hold back either. She grabbed a feather duster and swung it fiercely at Riley’s head, shouting, “Get lost, you self-righteous principal, teacher, and university student. Don’t set foot in our country bumpkin’s house!”

On the day you were hospitalized, I went to borrow money from Uncle Kenneth, Aunt Candice, and Uncle Frederick. Uncle Kenneth took out a wad of money from his wallet and counted 100 dollars to give me. He told me to use that 100 dollars to pay for my medical expenses. Aunt Riley also said that your illness couldn’t be cured and questioned why we were wasting money for nothing. On the other hand, Aunt Candice made it clear that she was afraid I wouldn’t be able to repay the money, so she only gave me 40 dollars as a monetary gift.
