Chapter 64
“What? Do you want me to hit you again?” Billy roaring.
"You can beat me to death, but I won't give you a penny."
“You... You damned girl! You're trying to piss me off and give me a heart attack, aren't you? I don't care. You will give us money whether you like it or not!” Billy pointed at Pearl and scolded her.
Tears of anger swelled in Pearl's eyes as she yelled back at him, “You've always liked him just because he's a boy! You gave him the best you could afford, while I had to make my own money to pay my university fees. What have you done for me?
“He wants to go to college, but we can't afford it? Alright, I will borrow money for him and slowly return it by saving as much as I can from what I earn. I spend as little as possible on myself. Do you know what kind of life I live? I even fainted at work due to malnutrition!
“My work got better after that, and I only saved a small portion of my income for living expenses. I'm sending it all back to your house, so what more do you want from me?
“And you, boy! What did you learn at university, huh? You didn't show any gratitude, and now you want five million dollars from me? What are you taking me for, ATM? Let me explain to you now, I won't give you a single cent from now on. ”
Pearl had kept this bottle for too long inside.
She was never recognized as a valuable person at home no matter how well she performed, all because she was born a woman, not a man.
It didn't matter if she ranked first in every exam, as her parents would never let her get praise or recognition .
Sam, however, is showered with the love and care of their parents no matter how much trouble he causes. All Sam had to do was tell him, and he would be beaten up soon.
When she entered university, she almost had to drop out of school because her parents were unwilling to pay her.
They say that women don't need to study because they're getting married, so she might as well start working to help feed the family.
If not for his teacher's sponsorship and part-time job, he probably wouldn't have been able to graduate in the end.
Now her parents have come to ask for five million dollars for her sister's wedding. Where would he get five million? He might get a promotion, but David never says anything about a raise!
Pearl's sudden explosion silenced everyone present.
Especially Leigh and Billy, because their usually submissive daughter suddenly retaliates against them.
They were too surprised to speak for a moment.
“If that's the case, then I might as well tell you the truth. My boss pitied me, that's why he let me stay here. Do you know how much this house is worth?”
Pearl did not wait for them to guess before she told them the answer. "Four hundred million."
'Four hundred million?
'Oh my God!
They had no understanding of how much four hundred million was, but it should be enough to buy an entire street in their city.
They even refused to believe it when Sam said that the house that Pearl lived in cost at least fifty million. There is no way a house can cost that much! Only now did they realize that fifty million was too little.
“Do you know how many four hundred million it is? Anything in this house is enough to buy the whole house at home!”
“If you won't go, then I'll go! Don't blame me when the security guards come here and start arresting you for robbery. Breaking through and entering a high-class area like this could put you in jail for about ten years, you know.”
Pearl turned to leave as soon as she finished speaking.
"Stop right there! How dare you rebel against us, you damned girl!” Billy stands up to hit Pearl, only to be held back by Leigh.
"Dad! Ever since I was young, you've never referred to me as anything other than a "cursed girl", you know. Tami your daughter! Yet I mean less to you than the beggars beyond that, ” Pearl said with tears in her eyes.
Sam was shocked too. She initially thought that as long as she called her parents, Pearl would finally give her whatever she wanted. After all, things were always like that, but things did not go according to plan this time.
“Pearl, we..”.
"Shut up! I know what you're planning. You called mom and dad so I would give up under their pressure, right? How old are you this year, huh? Can't you make your own money to pay for your own wedding?”
Pearl then ignored them and walked towards the door.
The others in the room immediately stood up to follow him. They were not from the city and there was no one they could ask for help if they were thrown in jail for ten years.
Just when Pearl arrived at the doorway, the main door opened from the outside.
Don't forget the boss's vote..🤗
