Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 989

Chapter 989 How Dare You Criticize My Friends

Leia glanced at Matthew, frowning. “And you? Who do you think you are? Who gave you the right to talk?”

Taken aback by her daughter’s bluntness, Heidi tried to lecture her daughter. “Leia, mind your manners! This is Sasha’s husband, Director Matthew Larson! He’s a part of the family.”

Leia pouted in disdain. “Hmph, who’s Sasha? I don’t know her. You have no right to butt in on my family’s matters! Also, who said that I didn’t care for my mom? I visited her yesterday, and I also came to see her just this morning! Also, do you think higher education is free or something? What about my meals? Should I just die of starvation? If it’s so troublesome, then I can just drop out, can’t I?”

The young lady’s words were like a trigger because the protective Heidi turned furious upon hearing her. “You! How can you say that?!”

Leia was worked up as well. “What? Was I wrong? Going to school requires money, doesn’t it? If you don’t want me to continue my studies, you can just tell me, and I’ll quit school and start working. I won’t take even a penny from you anymore. That’s what you want, right?”

“I… I….”

Helen sighed and took some money from her pocket. “All right, I’ll give you some money for now. Just try to get by for the time being.”

Leia took the money, then her eyes widened. “Only 300? What is this good for? It’s not even enough to cover my meals! Quit pretending to be generous if you’re out of money! Did I come all this way just to get 300? That’s outrageous!”

Helen was dumbfounded. “300 isn’t enough for one week? When Sasha was at school, 200 was more than enough for her weekly expenses!”

 

“We’re different! She went to school so long ago, and I’m in school right now! Look at the price tags on everything now! How many cups of Starbucks can I get with this measly 300? One and a half? Also, I have so many friends, and I sometimes have to treat them to meals and karaoke and movies and whatnot! One meal and this 300 would be gone! How am I supposed to meet my friends now?”

Matthew was in disbelief. “Your mother is in this condition right now, and you still want to have fun with your friends? Can’t you just decline some of the gatherings and spend more time with your mother?”
