Chapter 148
“Anyway, this matter is decided. If you think five hundred is not enough for
Robby’s living expenses, I’ll ask Chloe to give you eight hundred every month.
But if you don’t allow Robby to come to the city to study, we’re done. I will get
a divorce!” Abellyn declared arrogantly and unreasonably.
Then, she went back to her room to sleep.
Ryder was afraid of quarreling in the room and waking up Tommy, who had.
just fallen asleep, so he slumped against the couch in the living room. Even
after a long time, he was still unable to calm his anger.
When Abellyn got up the next morning, Ryder had already taken Tommy to
school. She got up and left the house.
Chloe and Robby hadn’t left Yeringham and were instead staying in a rented
house.
A year ago, Chloe’s husband passed away due to an accident, leaving her
over three hundred thousand as compensation. Since his parents had
already passed away, the money was all left for Chloe.
She could have used the money to buy a house in Yeringham, but she
merely rented a house without letting Ryder know because her income was
unstable.
Furthermore, she often went off to play poker with Abellyn, thinking that she
could buy a house in full payment if she managed to win more money.
However, luck was often not on her side. Coupled with her extravagant
spending, the money was almost gone now.
Robby was previously studying in Chloe’s hometown and was taken care of
by Mary, but Chloe hadn’t given her mother any caretaker fees for the past
two months. As a result, Mary now refused to take care of the child for free
and gave the excuse that she was already old. In the end, Mary sent Robby
back to Chloe yesterday.
Left with no choice, Chloe decided to put the pressure on Ryder.
When Chloe saw Abellyn, she immediately held her sister’s hand and asked
anxiously, “How is it, Abellyn? Did that honest guy agree?”
Abellyn let out a long sigh and looked a bit angry. “Chloe, he didn’t seem very
willing. I told him you will give him eight hundred every month for living
expenses, but he still doesn’t want to take care of Robby!”
As they spoke, Robby secretly eavesdropped from inside the house.
Before she could finish, Abellyn hurriedly covered her mouth and glanced
inside the house.
Robby quickly pretended to play with his toys happily as if he hadn’t heard
“Don’t blabber about it, Chloe! If that honest guy finds out, I’ll be in trouble!”
Abellyn whispered anxiously.
“Hmmph, that man is truly foolish! Does he really think he could have married
a beautiful woman like you with his conditions?” Chloe complained.
him as his godfather!”
