"We agree!" Derrick suddenly announced out loud. "We agree to your terms."
"I don't!" Rachael stomped her feet angrily. "I don't have that much money!"
"You take out as much as you have, and your mother and I will give you the rest," Derrick said tiredly.
"If you don't want to go to jail, you should be honest and obedient. If you want to go to jail, your mother
and I will not care."
Rachael gritted her teeth and stopped talking, for she was still afraid of going to jail.
"Mom, I want to divorce her!" Brian knelt beside the hospital bed and said in a choked voice. "She hurt
you like this; I must divorce her!"
"You..." Belle closed her eyes and did not open them. "You were born to me, so no one in this world
knows you better than me. You are not a bad person, but you are soft-hearted and easily misled by
words. As such, you'll lose all your bearings. The determination that you have now in divorcing Rachael
will definitely fade, and you will change your mind when Rachael brings her kids to you to cry and beg
for your forgiveness..."
"No, I won't change my mind." He shook his head vigorously. "Mom, I can swear, I—"
"It's useless for you to swear," She interrupted him, saying. "Okay, save it. Anyway, Larry and Lucy are
innocent, and I don't want them to lose a parent. As long as Alex has a good life, I don't care what you
and Rachael do."
Thinking of his smart and lively children, Brian opened his mouth but had nothing to say.
"You and Rachael have to sort it out yourself," Belle continued. "While I'm still alive, take Alex through
the house transfer procedures, and there are 3 million more..." She labored to open her eyes and
looked at Madeline. "Miss Taylor, Alex is too young to apply for a bank card. Please give me your bank
card number and let Brian and Rachael send you 3 million."
"Are you crazy?" Rachael couldn't help screaming. "Brian is your own son, yet you don't believe in your
own son and believe in an outsider! You asked your own son to transfer money to an outsider's bank
card? Have you been brainwashed?"
"You're right. I don't believe in Brian because he doesn't deserve my trust." Belle looked at her coldly.
"You don't have the right to speak here, or do you want to go to jail?"
"You..." Rachael was so furious she couldn't speak.
However, Laine tugged at her clothes and shook her head at her.
Rachael was so angry that she was about to vomit blood.
The house she and Brian lived in now was bought when they got married. The mortgage was only paid
off this year, and the house price had more than doubled from when they bought it. Moreover, when
she bought the house, her parents were the ones who gave her money for it. Otherwise, how could
Brian, a poor guy, be able to afford a house in Dusktown? Now, she was asked to give the house to
Alex.
Ugh! Why did I push this old woman and cause all this?
If it weren't for Belle threatening to put her in jail, Rachael would never have given her house to that
little b*stard, Alex!
She considered herself to be an intellectual—a well-bred and well-mannered lady who was not on the
same level as Belle—but she was so angry with the older woman that she cursed in her heart.
Nevertheless, she only dared to curse in her heart and not outwardly. After all, that elderly woman had
dirt on her.
I will not let Alex go! When this old woman dies, will things still go the way she wants?
She was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. After some time, the people around would forget what
happened today, and by then, she would find a way to get the house and savings back from Alex. She
was a highly educated adult, so she was not worried about dealing with a child. As for Brian, she was
not concerned about him at all.
Belle said that she was the one who knew Brian best, and she was no worse, either.
Although she didn't like what Belle said, what Belle said was right—Brian was soft-hearted. Even
though Brian looked like he was siding with Belle now and would do whatever Belle asked him to do,
he would defect to Rachael's side after some persuasion once Belle breathed her last.
After all, Rachael shared the same bed with Brian for more than 6 years. She knew exactly what
Brian's character was like, so she didn't believe that Brian could get away from her! Once Belle died,
and no one spoke up for Alex, Brian would side with her and her two children after some persuasion. In
the future, Alex would be nothing.
No one would help Alex then, and by then, everything under Alex's name would be hers. Thinking of
this, she finally felt a little more at ease.
After Belle asked Brian to deposit 3 million in Madeline's account, Madeline also hesitated. "I'm sorry,
but this is a little inappropriate..."
"It's fine."
Belle held Madeline's hand and explained with all her strength, "Miss Taylor, the 3 million is not for you
to keep for Alex. It is for your commission fee! I can't count on Brian, and Aaron can't win against this
couple, so I'll give 3 million to you and the house to Alex. You help Alex protect the house, and when I
die, don't let Brian and his wife snatch the house away..."
Brian knelt on the ground with his head lowered, feeling ashamed. In his mother's mind, he turned out
to be such a ruthless person...
But he couldn't blame his mother for looking down on him so much and seeing him as such a
shameless person because what he did before was indeed shameless. The older lady's words were
like a sharp knife stabbing his heart. He had lost his dignity, and his self-esteem was trampled under
her feet, but he couldn't complain to anyone.
I only have myself to blame. It's all my own fault...
"Um... " Madeline was still a little hesitant.
"Miss Taylor, I beg you. You must help me," Belle clenched her hand and begged. "You and Brian are
different; you are a good person, and I went to see your Oasis Law Office before. I heard Leigh talk a
lot about you. You, your mentor, Leigh, and your employees are all good people! I feel reassured after I
entrust Alex to you. The 3 million is the commission fee. In the future, let Brian pay Alex the living
expenses every month. If he doesn't pay, sue him! When Alex is 18 years old, if Brian is willing to take
care of him, he can continue to take care of him. If he doesn't care, then Alex..."
She tilted her head to look at Alex with some difficulty.
"Grandma... " Alex cried and buried his face in her hands.
Belle caressed Alex's face lovingly, then mumbled, "Alex, he has to support you when he gives birth to
you. Before the age of 18, he has to support you. After the age of 18, if he doesn't support you
anymore, don't go to him. You should fight for yourself, find a job, support yourself, and when he is old,
you don't have to worry about him. When you reach the legal age for children to support their parents,
just give him however much the law stipulates. You don't have to give more to him, and you don't have
to care about anything. He still has other children whom he loves more, so let them take care of him!"
