$500 KPI: Surviving College Under Mom's Rules Chapter 10
Mom's and Rodney's reputations were totally destroyed.Mom was fired from her company, gossiped about by neighbors, and eventually evicted by her landlord for harming the community's atmosphere.The relatives who'd once fallen over themselves to curry favor with her now avoided them like the plague.On a stormy night, Mom and Rodney showed up outside my upscale apartment building.Through the glass door, the moment Mom saw me, she dropped to her knees. Then, she frantically slapped her own face, wailing with heartbreaking desperation."Sabrina, I messed up! I was blinded by greed! I'm worse than an animal—a total asshole! Please just forgive me this one time, okay?"Rodney knelt down beside her. With his head down and his eyes empty, he trembled as he pleaded, "Sabrina, I'm sorry. I don't want to be a security guard. I can't let my life be ruined like this."I nodded to the security guard at the door. "Let them in."I poured them both a cup of hot water. Then, I sat down on the

The news that Rodney had been given a serious disciplinary citation and was facing possible expulsion crushed Mom, so much so that she didn't contact me for an entire day.I thought she'd finally come to terms with reality. But the next day, a video went viral on the local TikTok feed.The footage showed Mom in tears, leveling a series of accusations. She claimed her daughter, a prestigious college student, had severed all ties after coming into a massive inheritance. Worse still, she accused me of suing her own kin and orchestrating a brutal assault that left Rodney hospitalized. However, she never once mentioned that absurd KPI contract, or how she'd cut off my living expenses and coldly refused to lend me money for medicine when I was burning with fever.At the end of the video, she covered her face and choked out, "I don't know what I did wrong. I just wanted my children to be okay. Now our family is destroyed, and my son is about to be kicked out of school. What's the point o

The whole "but we're family" routine didn't work on me, but Mom wasn't one to quit. Soon enough, she switched tactics.This time, she turned her focus to Rodney.One evening, I got a call from an unknown number."Sabrina, where are you? Mom froze my card. I can't go to my prep course anymore."The moment I heard his voice, I snapped back, "I told you before that your problems have nothing to do with me.""How can you say that? Mom says you're sitting on the inheritance from Dad and you've abandoned us. Don't be so selfish! I'm your brother—if you don't take care of me, who will?"You're so rich now, so what's the big deal about giving me a few thousand dollars?" he said, his entitlement practically oozing from every word."Is that so? Didn't Mom tell you that inheritance belongs to me alone? As for your tuition—that's Mom's responsibility, not mine. Please don't call me again."With that, I hung up.Predictably, the next day, while I was eating in the campus cafeteria, Rodney

I got my new phone right away, and Mr. Donnelly also relayed the message to Mom, as I wished.With his help, I used an advance on my dividends to rent a small, fully-furnished apartment in the city center.Predictably, Mom went ballistic.My old phone was powered off, while I only received calls from Mr. Donnelly and a few trusted friends on my new phone.Even so, I was still bombarded with calls and texts from relatives left and right.The first call came from Mom."Sabrina, what is the meaning of this? I can't believe you hired a lawyer. You think you're so tough now, do you?" she shrieked hysterically.The second call came from Aunt Beatrice, laying on the moral guilt trip."Sabrina, your mother is about to make herself sick from anger! How could you take your own mother to court? Have some outsider led you astray? No matter what, she's still your mother. She fed you and clothed you for 18 years—you can't be this ungrateful!"Mr. Donnelly recorded all of these calls and cal

My father? Financial inheritance?I was dumbfounded."That's impossible. My mom said all the money was spent a long time ago.""Ms. Herbert was in charge of some of the money, yes. But that was just a drop in the bucket. Ten years ago, before Mr. Knapp passed away, he entrusted our firm with a special notarized will. He anticipated certain circumstances, so the conditions for this will to take effect are rather specific.""What are the conditions?" I asked, holding my breath."That you have reached the age of 18 and have come into an irreconcilable conflict, both financially and in daily life, with Ms. Herbert."After a pause, Mr. Donnelly continued, "Mr. Knapp said that only then would you truly need this insurance."A chill ran down my spine. Dad had seen it all coming."What exactly is the inheritance?" My palms were sweating with nervousness."Ms. Knapp, your father left you 30% equity in a cultural media company called 'Flourishing Age.' According to current market valuat

"You're resigning?" Mom's voice shot up an octave. "Sabrina, get this straight—you need me, and I don't need you. Didn't I already confiscate your slush fund? Do you even have a single cent to your name right now?"You want to quit? Fine. Pay me back for 18 years of raising you. With interest, that's two million dollars. If you can come up with it, you can get the hell out right now. But if you can't, then you just sit here and take it."Two million dollars? The number crushed the air out of my lungs in an instant. Mom was basically handing me a death sentence."Sabrina, like I said—you win some, and you lose some." Rodney stood up and stepped in front of me. "If you don't have the money, don't act all high and mighty. Just apologize to Mom and this whole thing blows over."I clenched my fists angrily.Mom gave me a cold look. "You're not allowed to have dinner tonight. Use the time for self-reflection. Come to me when you've come to your senses."Then, she waved her hand grandly
