Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 978

Chapter 978

“Weren’t you and Jack the reason Mom and Dad asked for a lot of money? Ask any family, and none of them will tell you that they expect that much for a wedding gift. What would you think if your children’s in–laws demand that much for a wedding too?

“That kind of money will be good for me to start a family with Hank. How can I possibly allow Hank to give it away? It’s only for formalities‘ sake, but what did you tell Mom and Dad? 777,777 dollars is lucky for you. All I get is seven thousand dollars in return, and nothing more.

“Mom and Dad will get a hundred thousand dollars while you and Jack get three hundred thousand each. Why? Why are they selling their daughter to give their sons everything? What about the daughter?”

Faced with her sister’s questioning, Oscar turned red in the face and lashed out,” You’re favoring outsiders instead of family. We’re your brothers. You should get more out of the Browns since they’re wealthy, but you can’t get anything now because you’re married.

“You went behind our backs and got married to Hank. Look, the 777,777–dollar gift is now seventy thousand. What’s wrong with helping me and Jack out when you’re getting a nice life in the city? It’s normal for siblings to help one another.”

“Just because I’m your sister doesn’t mean I owe you. Why should I give you all the help when life is not even good for me? Why should I give you everything to renovate your houses? What about me? I don’t even know if I have a bedroom, let alone a home, with Hank. Why should I suffer while you live the life?

“We’re all Mom and Dad’s children. Sure, I owe Mom and Dad my life, and I’m not saying I won’t help them out financially. You can give a little something to our parents too. Like you, I can contribute to their medical bills if they fall sick.

“I don’t owe you and Jack anything!”
