Indelible Love novel Chapter 3

Before the New Year, I met that man of 38-year-old, who was divorced with two kids.

"Aunt, since the man you introduced is so good, why not my cousin marry him? Can a 40-year-old man be called a young fellow? Oh... and, if cousin marries, you can be a grandmother immediately. My cousin needn’t give births for being a stepmother since he has a son and a daughter. “

After hearing my words, Harriet was shocked and scared, glaring at me with her dead fish eyes. I had been a push-over in front of her these years. I endured as much as I could, which made her become worse. Now she even wanted to sell me out.

"What’s wrong with you, what kind of man you introduced to her?"

Harriet was originally irritated by me. Seeing that uncle supported me, she quarreled rudely right away, “It isn’t bad that he is 38 years old with a car and a house. It is her luck to marry him.”

I gave Harriet a scornful look and then turned back to the ward.

It had been several days I didn’t visit and I found that grandmother’s bed was changed. After asking the nurse, I turned to the corner of the corridor and saw her lying on the temporary bed.

Suddenly, my eyes turned red...

 

"Grandma, why are you here?"

I quickly walked over. The middle-aged carer of my grandmother said coldly while eating sunflower seeds, “You owe more than $10,000. The hospital is so nice not to chase you away. The bed in the ward is so expensive. The nurse Just came to remind that they won’t offer the imported medicine if the owed money isn’t paid over. Besides, the caring fee your uncle paid expires today. I won’t come here tomorrow if you don’t continually hire me.”

I said nothing. Seeing that grandma stay asleep, I went downstairs to repaid the money.

The carer immediately changed her face when she saw me take the money out. I didn’t mind that. After all, it is common that people pursue money in the world.

When uncle came back, he looked guilty. I didn’t mind it at all. Harriet had formed a habit of annoying these years. Uncle couldn’t stop her and had no such ability!

I gave him the rest money in the card and reminded him not to tell Harriet. Otherwise, she would possess it all.

“Lydia, where do you get it? We can’t break the law.”

“Uncle, relax, it comes from...” I racked my brain to get a reason to tell him.

Uncle took the bank card with uncertainty.
