Too Late to Be Loving Parents Now Chapter 12
Oliver tried to reason with me as well."Owen, take it as a plea from me. This incident absolutely cannot be made public. I'll take care of Mom and Dad from now on, and you won't need to spend a single penny more."Dad adopted the domineering, arrogant demeanor of a head of the family."Owen, we're all family here. There's no need for us to tear each other apart."I looked at them with amusement. "Well? Are you all satisfied this time? You must have had the time of your life watching my family bending over backward for you! You must have wondered how such a stupid family could exist and that we deserved to be deceived!"Mom, realizing that the soft approach wasn't working on me, decided to try the opposite."If you publicly expose this incident, I'll jump off a roof and claim that you forced me to do it! I've lived long enough anyway."Oliver glanced at her with a complicated expression, but he eventually chose to remain silent.I wiped tears of laughter from the corners of my

Eventually, Mom started wailing loudly. "What kind of person would joke about their own life? We finally managed to smooth our relationship over, and now you're trying to rile me up again?"I laughed coldly. "Is that so? In that case, I'll help you get admitted into a different hospital. Your current attending doctor is Oliver's distant relative, so I fear that his worry will cloud his judgment and prevent him from treating you properly."Incidentally, I just managed to secure the services of our country's most renowned doctor and medical team. Should I take you to meet them?"Mom continued to make excuses. "How could outsiders possibly be more attentive than our own relatives? I think his treatment has been quite effective. Look—my complexion's much better than before."I smiled mockingly. Wasn't a good complexion only natural for a perfectly healthy person?On the contrary, it was Elena and I who looked quite haggard from running around busily without getting much decent sleep.

As I tried to suppress my emotions, Timothy and Tessa came over to hug me and Elena gently."Dad, don't be sad. Everything will be alright."After a long while, I finally pulled myself back together. Everyone died eventually. It was the case with Grandma, and so it would be for Mom.I, too, would face death in the future.All we could do was try our best to live out long, fulfilling lives.I took a deep breath and forced myself to face reality.…Over the next few days, Oliver and I would take turns bringing food for Mom.She was looking better and better, which made me quite glad.One day, I brought along an MP3 I'd bought for Mom, hoping it would improve her mood.On the way to her ward, I overheard an older woman next to me complaining to her daughter."It's so strange. We're both cancer patients, but the woman next to me somehow manages to eat three meals a day. She has a better appetite than that of a healthy person, and she receives far less intravenous medication than

The general sentiment in the comment section gradually started shifting in my favor, but I had no desire to read through it.I couldn't stand my parents and Oliver seizing the initiative to play victim.Mom called me countless times, but I ignored all of her calls. I blocked her, Dad, and Oliver on all communication apps and social media platforms.I would only transfer their allowance to them from now on.After that, my family had a great time on our family trip. At least, until a young boy kept glancing my way while speaking with his friends."That's him, right? Why's he here?" he asked his friends.I was rather puzzled, because I didn't recognize him.An agitated old man even threw a vegetable at me.Elena, Timothy, and Tessa hurriedly shielded me. The old man stopped throwing vegetables, seeing as the children were still young, but he hurled insults at me regardless."I hate ungrateful wretches like you! You heartless bastard! Your parents raised you, yet you won't even vi

I explained calmly, "Although the place I rented isn't located in a high-end neighborhood, it boasts a great environment and easy accessibility. I also chose it specifically for its spaciousness."I hired a top-class caregiver for you who charges 20 thousand dollars per month. She originally planned to turn down the job, as she wasn't short on money and wished to spend time with her grandchildren. She agreed to the job for my friend's sake, yet you all went so far as to accuse her of incompetence."Since this much still isn't enough to satisfy you, I'm out of ideas. This is all I can do. I'll tell Donna not to come by anymore."As soon as Mom heard about how incredible Donna was, she said anxiously, "Owen, I was just talking nonsense just now. She actually takes pretty good care of me."I gazed at her as I said, "It's too late. I already broke the news to her."Her composure instantly shattered. "Why can't you take a joke?"I replied expressionlessly. "That's right. In fact, I al

Elena was clearly confused as well. She was also acquainted with Donna, who had a great reputation. How could such a mistake have occurred?I asked calmly, "Since you all think Donna didn't do a good job, why don't I summon her for a face-to-face talk?"Oliver instantly raised his voice. "That simply won't do! She was the one who landed Mom in this state, and you want to summon her here? Are you deliberately trying to upset Mom? She'll definitely deny it anyway. Who would be foolish enough to admit their own wrongs?"Mom also started coughing more loudly, which made me even more suspicious.Oliver looked at me with heavy dissatisfaction and continued, "Owen, I already promised to let Mom and Dad live with me. Yet this happened to them only a few days after they stayed with you. All else aside, they gave birth to you and raised you. Did you really have to do this?"I asked in return, "What do you want me to do, then?"Oliver replied confidently, "Fire that caregiver, of course, th
