MasukAfter receiving his bonus, my husband, John Anderson, used his savings and bought his mother a house in the city. Considering my mother-in-law, Mary Anderson’s age, it was not ideal for her to stay alone in the countryside. Hence, I transferred the money without any hesitation. However, when John went to fetch his mother for house-viewing, she appeared unexpectedly before my door. “Helen, I can understand that you feel unwell due to your pregnancy, but my husband left me so little money. I can’t give it all to you.” I was dumbfounded. Just when I was about to clarify matters, my husband called me. “Helen, Mom doesn’t like this house. The other house she likes is three hundred thousand dollars more expensive. Quick, transfer me the money. “Oh, by the way, I’m afraid Mom will feel bad about this, so I didn’t tell her the actual price. When we visit her, please don’t accidentally tell her this information. I’m afraid she’d feel embarrassed.” I touched my flat belly. “Mary, did you say that I’m pregnant?” The next second, Mary’s phone started to ring. “Mom, Helen’s feeling uncomfortable, and she wants to buy a massage chair. Please send me more money!” Mary was also dumbfounded. “Aren’t you John’s wife?”

I insisted that he could either agree to a divorce or head over to the police station. John gave in because of his mother’s life. When he walked out of the building, Gabby showed up at the entrance with her family. They grabbed John by the collar and forced him to pay for her pregnancy. John kept arguing and said that Gabby had consented to the affair, so he would not make any payment. The only choice they had was letting Gabby marry him. However, Gabby no longer wanted him after knowing that he had lost his fortune. In the end, the messy incident ended with a fight when John accused Gabby of being a prostitute. I did not want to watch any of their drama, so I left with my parents after leaving some instructions with my secretary. That night, my secretary updated me. “The manager and security guards are all
John paused. As he sprawled on the floor, he was dumbfounded like a complete idiot. Suddenly, he screamed. “Are you saying that the old lady just now…“Impossible! Why would my mom be here?”I was completely speechless. “I’ve been saying that since the start. You were too stubborn to believe that it’s actually your mother.“You even threatened me with her life!” If he had not allowed Gabby to run wild, Mary would not be injured, and her face would not be covered in blood. He would not have mistaken her for my mother due to the dirt and grime. I had tried my best to remind him. However, he was not willing to listen. He kept claiming that I was lying to him. My parents finally caught on. “What an ungrateful child! I shouldn’t have agreed to your marriage to my daughter.“You don’t deserve to live! How can you be so cruel to scold and hit an old person!“We’ve treated you like our own all these years. I didn’t expect you to be this cruel!” John was dumbfounded
In the past, whenever John used this excuse, I would drop the case. After all, I knew John had a difficult childhood. He was from a poor family. Mary had brought him up all alone. I respected Mary a lot. Whenever we visited her over the holidays, I would always try my best to support her in living a better life. However, ever since my company expanded, I started to focus on my career. I had no choice but to pass the money to John when he visited his mother. Whenever John returned, he would tell me how difficult it was for his mother to live alone in the countryside. However, she did not expect anything from me because she knew that I was busy working and did not want kids. Every time I heard that, I felt sorry for Mary. I also felt that John was having a hard time taking care of his mother alone, and that being with me caused him intense pressure. Hence, when John asked for money to improve Mary’s life, I never said no. For him to gain a respectable standing in th
My parents had brought a group of policemen along and barged in angrily. Ever since I graduated from university, my parents had immediately handed me the company and went travelling around the world. However, that did not mean that they would look the other way when I was in trouble. John’s face became ghastly. “Peter, Janice, what are you doing here? We were just having an argument. “Helen, you’re blowing things out of the water here. We’re just arguing. Why did you ask your parents to come over?”I immediately retreated when he tried to approach me with a hug. “Everyone knows what has happened. Why would I lie to cover for you?”My mother started crying when she saw my flustered state. She hugged me tightly. “Don’t be afraid, Helen, I’m here to protect you.”My father turned around and spoke to the police. “We would like to lodge a police report. Not only did this man cheat on my daughter, but he also abused my daughter and transferred their marital assets withou
