Chapter 1 His Dignity Is Shattered 

“Mom! Please give me back my 50 thousand dollars. My sister is counting on it! She cannot afford any more delays!” 

Plonk. 

Joshua slumped to his knees. 

His mother-in-law, Heidy Shaw, slapped him on the face with a snap. 

“Piss off! You good-for-nothing jinx! When did I owe you money?” 

“The insurance company said you took the claim money!” 

Joshua was anxious. 

Three days ago, his sister was seriously injured in a hit-and-run car accident. 

The medical bills made him overwhelmed. 

Finally, the insurance company issued the insurance claims. However, Heidy took the money! 

Heidy argued, “So what if I took the money? You’ve been living off our family these years, and this is what you owe me! Joshua, look at yourself. You’re a man, yet you can’t even pay for your sister’s medical bills. What’s the point of living? If I were you, I’d kill myself!” 

After that, Heidy complained to Pamela Windsor, who was playing on her phone on the sofa, “This husband of yours is nothing but a total loser! A poor bastard who can’t make any money!” 

“Mom, he is just an employee. How can he save any money?” 

Pamela looked at Joshua kneeling on the ground. Though she loathed him, she felt pity for him. 

Then she added, “Mom, maybe you should give him the compensation money. After all…” 

“Shut up!” 

Heidy yelled, “The money is for your brother’s marriage. No one can lay their hands on 

She stepped forward and kicked Joshua in the stomach. “You won’t get your money whatsoever. Just forget it! You want the money? Over my dead body! Come at me if you 

dare!” 

Joshua clutched his stomach, seething with anger. 

However, he glanced at his wife, Pamela, and he could only endure. 

Heidy sneered, “I knew it! You’re such a coward. You wouldn’t dare to do anything. Get lost! A parasite like you is not for our family! Get a divorce with Pamela as soon as possible. We will be total strangers from now on!” 

Heidy said and pushed Joshua out. 

Pamela did not stop Heidy and looked disappointed with Joshua. 

During the whole process, Joshua’s father-in-law, Donte Windsor, kept reading the newspaper and pretended that nothing had happened. 

Bang! 

The door was closed. 

Joshua was disappointed outside.
