All Chapters of Bled Dry for Family: My Wife Bankrolls Her Brother's Homes: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Nini, Daddy is making the money needed for your treatment—""I don't need it!" Nancy Sheridan, my daughter, screamed in my ear as she kept hitting me repeatedly."Uncle Dmitri is the family's future! You don't know anything because you're just an outsider! You're not even a Sheridan!"Uncle Dmitri told me that once he got married and gave birth to a son, he would be the one carrying the family legacy to the next generation!"You're petty and stupid, and you keep using me as an excuse every time you can't make any money!" she continued to holler while pointing her finger in my face."I hate it when you go DoorDashing on your motorcycle and get all smelly and sweaty all over! You don't even deserve to lick the mud off Uncle Dmitri's boots!"Nancy's scream nearly pierced through my eardrums, and my outstretched hand froze mid-air just as I was about to grab her hand.Back then, I had felt sorry for my wife, Denise Sheridan, for all the pains and trouble she went through while bein

As it turned out, Denise had already been planning to use the money as the down payment for Lakeview Mansion ever since then.I swallowed the blood in my mouth, along with the rest of my stale buns."Really, Aiken Collins? What a waste of the last ten years of your life," I muttered to myself.My phone buzzed again, and this time, it was a call from the bank."Mr. Collins, the repayment for the loan under your name is a day late. Kindly make the necessary payments as soon as possible, or it will affect your credit score."I chuckled coldly."The property is not registered under my name. Go and chase after the person who actually signed your contract.""But Mr. Collins, the loan you took out was a joint loan—""Then go ahead and sue me."I hung up and blocked the number at once.Less than two minutes later, Denise began calling me over and over again, one after another, and I never picked up a single one.She switched to a different number after that and sent me dozens of voi

The officers snapped the cold cuffs around my wrists.The interrogation room was bright and almost blinding."Name.""Aiken Collins.""Do you know why you're here?""Yes. Family disputes."I answered the officer's questions very calmly. Meanwhile, the young officer seated opposite me frowned instead.He couldn't understand why I was so calm about the matter."Someone accused you of wielding a knife and threatening others, and of domestic abuse against your wife and daughter."We have video proof."The officer then began playing a video on the iPad he slid toward me. The screen showed me holding the penknife against Dmitri's neck on the ground.Denise's screams in the background were also very perfectly edited into the video.The video made me look like a fierce, terrible, and frightening beast."The video's been doctored," I said calmly. "Dmitri first attacked me with a baseball bat. I was only defending myself.""Do you have any proof of that?""You can find the surveil

Did Denise and Dmitri really think that they were safe once they'd run away with the money?I wasn't just going to make them pack back every cent they owed me.I was also going to make them face the consequences—a tooth for a tooth, and an eye for an eye.My phone vibrated with a new text message from Paul. He had sent me a photo of a drug test report.The report said that the "specialized drug" meant to cure Nancy's leukemia was actually just made up of glucose and vitamin C, costing less than ten bucks for a bottle of it.Denise had lied to me that the drug cost 10,000 dollars per dose.I gripped my phone tightly until my knuckles went white as resentment surged in my mind, nearly overthrowing my rationale.Ten years.The lie lasted ten whole years.I had worked myself to the bone, and Dad had sold his kidney and exchanged his life for nothing but a massive lie in the end.Nancy was not even sick to begin with!…I rushed out of the company and drove all the way back to D

"Or do you mean flaunting Dmitri's mansions bought with my hard-earned money on your social media accounts, Denise?" I asked."Stop it with that cheap acting of yours, Denise Sheridan."The police arrived just then and rushed into the house, taking control of the situation at once.This time, the cold handcuffs were snapped onto each of the Sheridans' wrists instead.Dmitri was still trying to fight back."Let me go! How dare you arrest me? I didn't break any laws!"Larry, who had kept quiet throughout the entire ordeal, finally spoke, cursing out loud."You ingrate! We were the ones who fed you and took care of you, and you dare to bite the hands that fed you?"You will suffer a horrible death!"I watched expressionlessly as the four of them were led into the police cars.Finally, this ten-year-long nightmare was coming to an end.I turned around and saw Nancy hiding behind the door, shivering in fright.She no longer looked harsh or haughty like she used to in the past.
