Chapter 126 Cutting Ties
Seeing how relentless Margaret was, Ewan himself became annoyed too.
“Mom! Someone died in your hands before. We spent quite a lot of effort to settle it,”
he said. “No one’s brought it up in 20 years, but now you’re trying to get people’s attention? Are you thinking of dragging our entire family down with you?”
“How dare you-” Margaret raised her cane into the air.
She was about to hit him with it, but he handed him a card and told her, “Mom, you
aren’t getting any younger. Don’t be so stubborn.
“I know you don’t like to listen to Wanda, but she’s my wife. You should at least try to understand my feelings.”
Margaret gritted her teeth in anger. Her nails dug into her palms, hurting herself. She spat on the floor. “I’d rather not have a son like you.”
“Just stop talking, will you?” Ewan grabbed her arm to support her and said, “Did the Yarwoods give us back that Zenith herb? Can you give it to me, Mom? Things aren’t
going well at my company.”
Margaret’s chest rose and fell rapidly out of anger. “I knew it! You wouldn’t have come to see me if it weren’t for the herb.”
“You wouldn’t want to see our family go bankrupt, right? It took Dad so much effort and time to achieve this.” Lowering his head, Ewan sighed and said, “I have no
choice. I can’t just mortgage the company.”
Margaret stared at the son she once loved the most and felt her heart break into pieces. She didn’t want her husband’s lifelong hard work to go to waste just like this, and Ewan knew this very well. He knew she’d give in to his demand.
It had always been like this all these years. Every time he brought this up, Margaret
would relent.
It was only after she moved to this shabby house did he stop demanding things from her since he thought she was of no use to him anymore. He never visited her after that, much less repaid her kindness for bringing him up.
People often said that having children would mean a person wouldn’t have to worry about being taken care of when they got old. But that wasn’t the case for Margaret.
“Just let the company go bankrupt then.” Margaret’s voice was calm as she spoke.”
You’re the owner of the company now anyway.”
Ewan froze, his eyes widening in shock and disbelief at her words. “What did you just
say?” he asked, surprised.
Margaret looked him in the eyes and said, “My son… this is the final time I’m calling
you that. I gave birth to you, but my husband and I didn’t raise you to make you bring harm to the harm to the world.”
She continued, “From this day onward, you and I are no longer mother and son. You can do whatever you want from now on. I have nothing to do with you anymore.”
Ewan was stunned. A moment later, he burst into laughter. “You poor old lady! You’re nuts! I came here to give you money, yet you want to cut ties with me! Wanda was right! You’re as stubborn as a mule!”
That said, he stormed out of the house without even taking away the bags of supplements he placed on the floor.
On his way back home, he saw Wynter and Wolf on a bike. Usually, he’d jeer at them when he saw them, but he didn’t feel like doing so today. Wolf narrowed his eyes at Ewan and signed to Wynter.
