Bride To Be Not Me (Janice and Simon) novel Chapter 261

Whether he wanted to admit it or not, Simon had to face the truth. He could no longer afford to support Helena and Sarah.

Sarah's eyes widened. "What? Go back to our hometown?"

How were they supposed to return to their hometown? Did they have to slink back in disgrace?

Everyone there knew the Fitzgerald family had once risen to wealth. Even the town mayor had reached out to them in the past. If they returned, would they not become a laughingstock? Besides, their old house in town was no longer livable.

Sarah couldn't help but ask, "How much money are you giving us?"

Simon shot back, "Why should I be giving you money? You're a grown woman. You can't earn your own living? Are you expecting me to support you forever? I'm not your father."

Sarah turned to Helena. "Mom, did you hear that? Shouldn't he at least cover your living expenses? Never mind me, but he should take care of you."

"What right do you have to complain about me? You're an adult, divorced, and unemployed. Yet you sit around waiting for me to support you. Do I owe you something? You really have no shame," Simon sneered.

"You…" Sarah was about to explode from anger.

Simon was unmoved. "After you go back, I'll give Mom a thousand dollars a month for living expenses."

"Only a thousand dollars?" Sarah was outraged.

That amount would barely cover their food and basic needs. What about her skincare products? Her cosmetics? Even if they were moving back, she couldn't let her quality of life drop.

"How much more do you want? I'm only providing for Mom, not for you. However you choose to live is your own problem."

With that, Simon walked into his room, refusing to argue any further.

"Mom, look at him! He's completely abandoning me!" Sarah complained to Helena.
