The Joy of Gold Digging Chapter 10
Whitney refused to give up. The steadier I was, the more frantic she got.She started mouthing off online every day, frantically drumming up hype and trying to use public opinion to force me to back down.I couldn't be bothered to deal with her. I simply hired a team of lawyers to handle all the rumors and defamation online.Every single one that came along, I sued.Squeezing a little money out of people for emotional distress still counted as gold digging, right?As things spun further out of control, Whitney became practically the go-to joke at every high-society dinner.That was more than my image-conscious parents could sit back and take.The next time Whitney started a livestream, announcing she'd take me to court, the McGraw family issued a statement. "As of today, we are dissolving our adoptive relationship with Whitney McGraw and taking back all assets and luxury goods given to her."We will not seek to recover what we invested in her education over the years. But fro
The Joy of Gold Digging Chapter 9
Seeing Whitney blow up like that made my day.After swallowing so much humiliation, I'd finally gotten a little revenge of my own.Whitney couldn't wait for me to leave, but Mom, Dad, and Sean felt completely differently. "Actually, we've gotten along pretty well lately... If you're ever free, you can come back and visit us."I had no idea what had flipped their warm-and-fuzzy switch, but they actually seemed reluctant to see me go.But I was the kind of gold digger who learned her lesson after getting burned. The tiny bit of kindness they'd shown me couldn't make up for all the hurt they'd caused.So now that the money was safely in my pocket, getting away from that mess as soon as possible was the smart move.But whether I'd provoked her too badly or she simply had no brains, Whitney couldn't leave it alone.I'd only been gone one day when Whitney went online to call me out. She claimed that I, the real heiress, was cold toward my family, that I'd taken a huge chunk of our par
The Joy of Gold Digging Chapter 8
Ha! I'd guessed right.Sure enough, until the money was firmly in my hands, Whitney was going to keep stirring up trouble.This time, though, Sean reacted differently. He didn't blindly take Whitney's side. Instead, he asked her suspiciously, "Are you worried for me, or for yourself?"You're angry because you think Anne's taking a share of the property that's yours, am I right?"Whitney stubbornly held her ground. "Of course not! Sean, I think of you as family. I'm worried for you!"I never had any right to the family's property in the first place, but I can't just stand by and watch your interests get hurt..."It sounded nice. But Sean didn't trust her as much anymore.He thought it over, brushed Whitney off with a few vague words, and made an excuse to leave.When he turned and saw me, he gave an awkward smile and even explained himself. "Anne, don't worry. You're my real sister, and you're entitled to your share of the family's property."Mom and Dad left me plenty too. I w

I straightened my back, my face set with the grim resolve of someone ready to risk it all.Mom and Dad didn't disappoint me.Or rather, they disappointed me all over again. To protect Whitney, they gave in. "Anne, calm down. We can talk this through."We've already worked out the division of the assets. The lawyer is on his way with the documents."Whitney did wrong this time. We'll make sure to teach her a lesson for you."But this is still a family matter, and you don't air your family's dirty laundry in public. There's no need to blow it up and make us a laughingstock."They kept coaxing me gently.Sean joined in too, and for once he actually apologized, as if offering a truce.Whitney had lost completely, yet there was still pride in her eyes. "Anne, see? This is how happy it feels to be loved by your family."So what if you got the money? Apart from money, you have nothing."That was hilarious. Whitney actually thought something like that could hurt me.She had no i

In the dead silence, I waved my phone, my expression calm. "All the footage has been backed up to the cloud. Connor, didn't you say the media and the police would be here soon?"Then I'll just call the reporters I know, too. Once everyone's here, I'll hold a press conference and show them all this evidence."Tell me, will you and Whitney be going to court together, or..."Connor panicked.He fumbled to send a few messages, then snatched up the waiver and tore it to shreds on the spot. "I can explain... I'm sorry about what just happened."Just pretend that waiver never existed. The police and the media won't give you any trouble, and I promise I'll stay out of the McGraws' business from now on."The arrogance and swagger from a moment ago were gone, and panic was written all over his face.Probably to shift the blame, he even gave Whitney a resentful shove. "Didn't you say Anne was an airhead who only cared about money, so there was nothing to worry about? Look at the mess y
The Joy of Gold Digging Chapter 5
Whitney's arrogant smile froze on her lips.But she quickly recovered and gave a careless huff. "Anne, stop talking nonsense. The police and the media will be here any minute. You don't have time to think it over."Either you go to prison, or..."I cut her off with a scoff. Then I unlocked my phone and opened the cloud storage page for my security footage. "Nonsense? Do you really not understand, or are you just playing dumb? Are you sure... the hidden cameras I installed in my room are useless?"The unexpected words changed everyone's expressions.Sean found fault with me, same as always. "You're saying you installed cameras in your own room? Do you trust your family that little? You put in cameras to guard against us?""Why else?" I shrugged. "Ever since that trafficker snatched me and I realized how dangerous the world is, the first thing I did once I had money was start carrying cameras with me wherever I go."That way I can protect myself and my money at all times, and
