Wendy didn’t expect that the belt she wanted to buy to give to Charlie had angered her grandmother again.
As soon as she saw this temper of her grandmother who wanted to control and decide everything, she also got angry and said
offhandedly, “Every penny I spend now is my own hard-earned money, what I want to buy is my freedom, you have no right to
interfere!”
“What?! I have no right to interfere?!” Lady Wilson had just been scolded and shamed by Charlie, so she was very depressed,
and seeing that even Wendy dared to talk back to her, it immediately ignited her fire.
Then, she stopped in her tracks and angrily rebuked: “You must not forget that I have always been the head of this family, before,
now and in the future! The family is now having the most difficult time, every penny must be spent carefully! If you are so
extravagant and wasteful, you are putting the life and death of our family at risk!”
Wendy was aggrieved and said angrily, “You used to be in charge of everything because you were in charge of everything in the
family, but everything in the family was lost in your hands! Now everything is back to zero, starting with nothing.
What we have now is my hard-earned money, why do I still want you to be in charge?”
Wendy became more and more angry, her voice also raised an octave, and she said, “From now on, I will be the one to decide
my affairs! As for the money I earn, I will take out a portion of it for your living expenses, as well as the expenses for my father
and my brother’s rehabilitation, and every penny of the rest will be at my own disposal, you have no right to interfere!”
Lady Wilson was furious and accused through clenched teeth, “You’re really wrong! Are you going to follow the example of that
heartless Claire and turn your back on me?”
Wendy said with tears in her eyes, “There’s nothing wrong with following my sister Claire’s example.
She said, she said in a very strong tone: “I have said what I should say, if you are willing to accept, then according to what I said,
I will give you monthly living expenses, the rest you do not worry about, but if you do not accept, then I will go out tomorrow to
rent a room to live in.
I can even sleep at the company.
The company’s general manager office area is very large and even has a bed! It’s not a problem at all!”
Lady Wilson, seeing Wendy’s determined attitude, panicked and said, “Hey Wendy, what are you talking about ...... we have
come a long way as a family of four, we have suffered all sorts of hardships and seen all sorts of waves, how can we just break
up?”
At this point, she immediately promised: “Wendy, don’t worry, grandma will never interfere with your personal decision in the
future.
I will leave these matters to you!”
Wendy immediately said, “Good! Then it’s a deal!”
Lady Wilson said, “Okay, okay, it’s a deal, it’s a deal!”
After saying that, she smiled and asked, “Right Wendy, how much do you give me for living expenses in a month? You said that I
am old, I must often eat good food to replenish my body, the food standard must be a little more, how about this, you give me six
thousand dollars a month.
This is for mine, your father, and your brother’s living expenses, in addition you give me an additional two thousand dollars as
your father and your brother’s rehabilitation costs, a total of eight thousand per month, what do you think?”
Wendy naturally knew that eight thousand dollars for living expenses for three people was really a bit too high.
However, she did not bother to argue more with Lady Wilson, after all, as long as she could make Lady Wilson willingly give up
the idea of taking control of herself, this was already a huge victory.
