Love from My Dominant Boss novel Chapter 197

My mom couldn’t be bothered to listen. At that moment, she simply thought that I was being stingy.

“Mom, will you please be reasonable? I will definitely give you the money if I have it, but I am completely broke!”

I was getting angry as well. No matter how hard my mom pushed, it wouldn’t change the fact that I am broke. What will it take for her to believe that I don’t have any money?

“I don’t care. The bottom line is that you must find a place for your brother to recuperate. I don’t believe that you can’t even afford to rent a place!” growled my mom as she glared over. Her words sent a shiver into my heart.

She was blatantly forcing my hand, and she remained persistent despite seeing how troubled I was. Does her heart not ache at all? I am her daughter. Even if she puts all the blame on me, shouldn’t she still feel something when she sees how troubled I am?

“Let’s go, mom. I’ll take you to the bank now and show you my account balance. You can see for yourself if I have the money or not.”

 

My mom’s attitude had completely infuriated me. I walked to her and grabbed her hand to lead her to the bank.

I will show her just how much I have since she doesn’t believe me. That will prove whether I am wrong for being heartless or if she is unreasonable for pushing like that.

 

My mom flung my hand away and glared at me angrily. She insisted, “I will not go. If you want to go to the bank, then you can do so yourself! I don’t care if you don’t have the money right now. Everything must be perfect for your brother’s recovery. Deal with everything yourself. If you can’t even find a place to rent, then I will disown you!”

Seeing how agitated I got made my mom feel guilty. Maybe she knew that I didn’t have any money. She only came all the way over to make me ask Michael for the money. That makes sense. Michael has always been too generous when spending money.

Maybe they think that going after Michael is the fastest and easiest way to get rich. That could be why my mom is making such unreasonable demands.

“Mom, do you realize how heartbroken I am when I hear you say that? I honestly want to know. Does your heart ever ache a little when you push me like this?”

I would be even more disappointed if it turned out that she really was only using me for the money.

“Who would care for your brother if I sided with you? You’re standing all well and healthy here, but what about your brother? He can’t even stand now. Yet, you think I should be heartbroken for you?”

My mom’s emotion was running wild, so her voice was getting louder. That got the spectators to turn to us. My mom was tearing up a little. I know that she was only crying for Steven’s sake, but from the perspective of the spectators, it looked like I had made her cry.

I had always known that my mom cared more about Steven, but hearing her words still stung my heart. Sometimes, I truly hated the fact that I was not a boy. If I were their son, my parents wouldn’t treat me the way they did.

My tears were swirling in my eyes as well. I was truly disappointed in my mom, and I wanted to vent, but I didn’t dare to say anything in front of her. I was worried that our relationship would become worse if I did.

My mom glared at me. Fury burned in her eyes, but she suddenly shifted her gaze elsewhere.

I hadn’t even registered what was going on before I saw her walking around me to going after someone else.

I turned around curiously and saw Michael’s figure in my line of sight. Panic ran wild within me. I instantly guessed that my mom was running toward Michael. My mom might ask Michael for money, and that worried me, so I chased after her.

“Mr. Shaw, I am Anna’s mom. Do you still remember me?” greeted my mom with a bright smile on her face when she was right in front of Michael.
