Chapter i
I got divorced and received five hundred million dollars. I took my child to my mother’s house.
I saw my mom shopping at the supermarket while I was buying gifts for my family.
1 called her and told her that I wanted to have ribs for dinner when I got home. She asked me why I suddenly came back.
1 pretended to be sad and said that I got divorced and was kicked out of the house by my husband, and that I would have to live with my parents from now
She hung up the phone right away. When I looked up, my mom was helping my sister–in–law into a maternity dress.
“Hurry up! Martha got divorced and wants to move back home. You’d better say you’re expecting a baby and need to stay in the house. Don’t let her tale it
back!”
My sister-in–law gritted her teeth in anger and said, “Is she crazy? Who will support us if she gets divorced? There is no place for her to live in our house! If she wants to stay, she should pay!”
The band that dialed the phone froze, and the ice cream in the mouth no longer tasted sweet.
It was 35 degrees, but I felt cold all over
was my daughter who pulled me back to reality.
“Mom, what happened to you?”
“Larisse, Mom feels so hot, it’s like my eyes are sweating”
I wiped away my tears and took my daughter to eat a bucket of ice cream, finally calming down
orry for me.
I had gotten divorced, he’d definitely feel sorry
My younger brother and I have always been very close. If he knew I had
I returned home with the last shred of hope.
My daughter ran excitedly to my mom when she saw her, but my mom frowned and muttered, “You got divorced, fine, but why bring along a baggage?!”
On the dining table were the braised pork trotters my younger brother loves, the steamed fish my sister–in–law enjoys, and my dad’s favorite snacks but there were no spare ribs, the ones I had mentioned.
I deliberately asked, “Mom, where are the spare ribs? Didn’t you go to the supermarket today?”
My mother explained impatiently, “It’s such a hot day, I didn’t go out because I wasn’t feeling well. If you really want to eat, just order takeout!”
I lowered my
head and sneered, seeing through it but not calling it out.
I pulled the suitcase back to my own room.
I pushed the door open, only to find it filled with my younger brother’s son Marcos‘ toys.
“Mom, where is my bed?” “This room is so messy, where will Larissa and I sleep tonight?
My mother didn’t even turn her head.
“It’s only because you suddenly came back, you’re usually not here, so now it’s Marcos‘ playroom”
Six–year–old Marcos muttered, “What a joke, I wasn’t even playing in this room…”
Halfway through the conversation, my mom covered Marcos‘ mouth.
I instantly understood that it was a lie. “Larissa and I will stay in this room. Later, you will help me clean it up.”
At this moment, Arielle Webster, my sister–in–law, burst out, “Martha Glenn, what do you mean? You come back and snatch the children’s room? Is this how you act as an aunt?
Don’t think just because you paid for the house, you can push people around. Once a daughter is married, she’s like water that’s been thrown out. Even if the room isn’t for Marcos, It’s not for you either!
Arielle pointed at the room and shouted, but I ignored her and turned to ask my mom, “Mom, what does it mean? Not letting me stay at home?
My mother sighed helplessly, “Martha, it’s not that I don’t want you to stay, but your father just broke his leg, and I can’t take care of him. This room has to be left for the nanny to stay.”

What a concidence
They really went to great lengths to drive me away.
Alelooked at me triumphantly.
I was not angry either, so I picked up the toy car in the room and threw it outside
“With so many idle people at home, why spend money on hiring a nanny. Let Tanner and Arielle take care of Dad.”
Arielle seemed to have been stepped on her tall and screamed crazily, “Martha, what do you mean! Who’s idle? You think throwing some money around makes you filial? It’s me and Tanner who’ve been taking care of Mom and Dad! Let me tell you, just go back to your own place, or you’ll be sleeping on the balcony!”
