Lahat ng Kabanata ng Sued by My Own Mom for $500: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 8

After getting ready, I went to the company, only to find the entrance packed with banners and ominous standing sprays. Unsurprisingly, when my boss, Mr. Cliff Murray, saw me, he looked displeased.I cut him off before he could speak. "Don't worry, Mr. Murray. Give me one week. If I don't fix this by then, I'll resign.""Then you'd better keep your word, Diana. This matter is having a massive impact on the company. Everyone's talking about it. Since you've already been promoted and are getting paid a decent salary, you should just give your mother 500 dollars a month and save everyone the headache.""Rest assured, Mr. Murray. I will resolve this matter. And thanks for your trust in me."Keeping my cool, I turned around and walked away. As soon as I walked into the break room, I could hear my colleagues gossiping about me."So what if Diana's sales numbers are good? She won't even support her own mother. What will our clients think if they hear about this?""My phone's been blowing

Seeing how excited Alan looked, I gave him a small smile. "Congrats, you're one step closer to the truth."As Alan wiped the sweat from his forehead, I slid a cup of coffee over to him. Buzzing with energy, he exclaimed, "I tailed your mom for three days."During the day, she looks for recyclables and picks up rotten greens from the farmers' market in front of that influencer's camera. And at night, she sleeps in the underground parking lot of a residential complex!"She looked all exhausted and miserable. But two days ago, when she received her pension, I ran into her at the bank."She was all bundled up and acting super suspicious, but I recognized that plastic woven bag she always carries. It was definitely your mom!"After withdrawing the money, she went straight to Smoraville Residences. The man she met looked pretty similar to her. He impatiently snatched all the cash away."The guy was decked out in gold accessories and drove a luxury car. I asked around and found out he's

At this point, Mom could no longer keep her composure, and the onlookers were starting to catch on, too."You don't have to be afraid, Ms. Lynch! All of us are here to support you. Since we're already at the courthouse, we can go ask the staff for advice!""Given Diana's job and income, getting 10 to 20 thousand dollars a month shouldn't be a problem. Even if the court orders less, it would still be at least one or two thousand dollars. You wouldn't have to humble yourself like this anymore.""Ms. Lynch, the courthouse doors are open right now. Let's head inside to ask!"As if she would dare!My case was handled rather quickly. In less than an hour, it was over. The judge issued the verdict right then and there. Everyone who had been involved in harassing and slandering me online would be punished.I demanded that each of them pay ten thousand dollars in compensation. I wanted it to hurt. I wanted them to know that a single negative thing they said about me would cost them ten th

All the money Mom earned went straight to Oliver. The 500 dollars she asked me for was never really about her living expenses. It was to make me pity her, so that 500 dollars could turn into 5,000 dollars or even 50 thousand dollars later.Since I couldn't meet her demands, I could only cut ties with her. The 500 thousand dollars was all the financial support I would ever give her. If she tried to stir up trouble again, I was going to sue her, and I had already hired an attorney.With the evidence right there in black and white, plus the footage Alan had captured over the past few days, Mom was utterly crushed. She couldn't deny a thing.When she saw me lay out all the evidence, she completely lost it. "You jinx! Ever since you came along, we haven't had a day of peace! You have no idea how hard raising the two of you alone was after your dad died in that work accident!"Alan shouted, "Quit lying!
