Chapter 153: I'll Give You Another Gift
Tina, who had been sitting quietly beside, glanced indifferently at Elizabeth and her two companions. "Let's take it to court. We can drag this out as long as needed. Whatever the court decides, we'll pay accordingly." Elizabeth turned sharply, her voice harsh as she rebuked, "You have no right to speak here!"
"Tina's opinion is my opinion," Hugo intervened coldly.
"You!" Elizabeth burst out angrily, "I will expose your abandonment to everyone! You want to ruin your reputation!"
"Huh," Hugo laughed in response, "Wasn't my reputation already destroyed by my biological mother and adopted daughter?" Despite later revelations that Amber was lying, many still speculated darkly about Hugo, and the rumors spread faster than the truth, leaving some to still view him as a villain accused of heinous acts.
"If you want alimony, mom, then as Tina suggested, we'll go to court," Hugo spoke calmly. "We will pay when the verdict is in."
"Just a reminder," Tina added slowly, "you have three sons and a daughter. If the court rules, it will likely dictate that they equally share the burden of your alimony. Considering your past actions towards Mr. Reed, the court might only grant you the minimum living guarantee from Ensford."
She turned to ask Jennie, "Auntie, what's the minimum living guarantee in Ensford?"
"One thousand one hundred eighty dollars," Jennie replied with a cold smile, knowing internally it meant each would only need to contribute two hundred ninety-five dollars a month. "Mom, you're over sixty now. Even if you live to a hundred, Hugo's total alimony wouldn't reach two hundred thousand."
Elizabeth's face, lined with wrinkles, twitched with anger.
Tina slightly curled her lips, "First hearing, second hearing, final judgment, it might take years. Don't worry, we have the patience to drag this out."
