Life at The Top novel Chapter 1248

“But I’m not wrong.”

Jeff shrugged then sat on the sofa bossily and continued, “That’s what he did all those years, he’s a poor student that ate and drank from our house. Besides, if I don’t have a sense of propriety, isn’t that your fault?”

“If I’m being real, Mom, you had this coming, no? You’re in charge of so much money, so what’s wrong with pulling out a few hundred thousand for me? You wouldn’t need to come to the hospital if you just listened and gave me the money at the start.”

Ms. Tiana replied painfully, “How many times do I have to tell you? This money is from the foundation to be used to support poor children who cannot afford to go to school. The only property I have is my house and you already forced me to give it to you. I don’t have any more money.”

“Tsk tsk.”

Jeff’s expression was one of disbelief and mockery. He turned his head and looked at the hospital room to say, “Don’t give me that nonsense, Mom. I already asked before I came here, this VIP room alone costs a good few hundred bucks a day.”

“Tsk tsk. I’m only earning 1100 Somer Dollars a month, and you’re telling me that you don’t have money?”

“How’d you manage to stay in such a nice hospital room if you didn’t have money?”

“So you’re telling me that your mom is supposed to live in those normal hospital rooms with other people? Whilst the better alternative she is enjoying must be because she took money from the foundation?” Jasper asked icily.

Jeff laughed out loud and replied, “That’s not what I said. I also don’t have the time to waste on reasoning with you people.”

“Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking, Jasper. A poor student like you definitely haven’t achieved anything yet, right?”

“You must’ve got your eyes on the money my mom is in charge of and you’re here to get a piece of it too, right?”

“You wish, I’m telling you! She is my mom! Only I have the right to ask her for money. You’re just her student, so how do you have the gall to ask her for money?”

Jeff then pointed at Jasper and turned to tell Ms. Tiana, “I told you long ago, didn’t I, Mom? I told you that as long as you have a bit of money, these f*ckers will all have their eyes on you! Don’t be softhearted and fall for their lies. Especially not the lies of broke f*ckers like him!”

“Do you really have the heart to watch me be forced to live on the streets? Ava’s going to divorce me if I don’t bring money back! Do you want to see your son live single and alone for the rest of his life?”
