Chapter 125

Stomach cancer?

My heart skipped a beat, my gaze shifting in disbelief towards my aunt. “How… how did you…?”

Before she could even utter a word, Allen chimed in, “Look, you can skimp on anything else, but when it’s about health, you gotta opt for the best.”

Glancing at Cheryl, I nodded in agreement. “That makes sense. I’ve got around $200,000 saved up. give it all to Auntie for her treatment.”

I can

After all, I was on my own…

There wasn’t much else I needed the money for

Money can be earned back, but once a person is gone… they’re gone for good.

Allen, however, frowned in disapproval. “Only $200,000?”

I was honest. “That’s all I have.”

“Do you think I’m a fool?” Allen’s voice rose in anger. “Don’t think I don’t know who you. married. I figured it out when that old guy from the Ferguson family in River City showed up with a hefty amount of money. $500,000 is just a drop in the bucket for you. Jane, I never realized you could be so cold-hearted!”

I felt a bitter taste in my throat, overwhelmed with a sense of helplessness. “I’m getting at divorce, Uncle. I’ll soon have no ties with the Ferguson family.”

Allen and Leroy were both shocked. “A divorce?!”

I nodded. “Yes.”

Allen seemed surprised for a moment, then shrugged it off. “So you’re getting a divorce. It doesn’t mean it’s final. He wants the divorce, right? Ah, men always get tempted by the world out there. Just turn a blind eye, and it’ll pass.”

“We’ve already applied for a divorce. It pretty much feels like we’re divorced already.”

Allen was quick to respond, “But I heard that an application can be canceled, right?”

Frustrated, I replied, “Uncle, this is my personal matter.”

Alright, alright.”
