Chapter 9 — Son gives father 10,000 yuan, biological mother 500 yuan
The three people looked at the lawyer's letter and their faces immediately turned pale.
“Mom… do you really want to sue us?”
Lam Hien did not dare to believe it, his voice trembled.
“You are my son!”
“That biological child!”
I looked at it coldly. The voice was determined without any lingering attachment.
“From the moment you said you would only give me 500 yuan every month…”
“Seeing my mother as an outsider, as a burden, as trash…”
"Then I'll pretend I never gave birth to this child."
Having finished speaking, I turned around and left. Behind him, the sound of Lam Hien screaming hysterically could still be heard. But I never turned back. That night, I sat alone on the balcony. Look at the lights of tens of thousands of houses outside the window. Then I thought about a lot of things. I suddenly remembered something. When Lam Hien was about fifteen years old, I once had a severe fever and couldn't get up in bed. I asked him to help me pour a glass of water. It does pour. But full of discomfort, he mumbled:
“It's so annoying.”
"I'm sick but still have a lot of problems."
At that moment my heart slightly sank. But I don't think much. Just think that teenagers should be rebellious. Now that I think about it... A person's nature is actually revealed very early. Just being a mother... Always didn't want to believe that her son would become a white-eyed wolf. According to Lam Hien's personality, I know he will definitely not give up. He will definitely go find Lam Kien Quoc and Vuong Phuong to discuss how to deal with me. It's just a pity... No matter what they plan to do, I have prepared countermeasures. I hired the best lawyer. Clarifying all legal issues. The red book is in my name. The release contract was signed by me. Compensation money transferred to my account. Legally… those 8,000,000 yuan have nothing to do with them. I even silently calculated in my heart. If they don't riot. If they would be so kind as to talk to me. Twenty-eight years of respect for mother and daughter... Maybe I'll still give them a little. Not much. But enough to save each other's face. I'm not an iron person. I just don't want to be seen as a fool by others. But they... They deliberately chose the stupidest path. I have suffered too much my whole life. Swallowing too much shame. Putting up with too many things that aren't worth putting up with. But from today onwards... I won't hold back anymore. A few days later, everything was exactly as I predicted. Lam Hien's family began a crazy counterattack. First, Lam Kien Quoc came to see me alone, intending to attack my feelings. He stood in front of my house, his face sad, his eyes red, his voice low:
“Diep Nhiem, I know I'm sorry to you.”
“That year was all my fault.”
“But Tieu Hien is your son.”
“You can't just ignore it.”
"He's under a lot of pressure right now, he won't be able to pay his rent, and his job won't go well."
“Please help him.”
I leaned against the doorframe and looked at him. It's been twenty years. He's still the same. Every time I do something wrong... I immediately show a pitiful appearance. Play emotional cards. Say "I know I'm sorry to you"... Then continue to make mistakes. I interrupted directly:
“Are you done talking yet?”
“After speaking, please leave.”
Then close the door. Outside, Lam Kien Quoc's curse immediately rang out:
“You cold-blooded woman!”
“You deserve to live alone all your life!”
I laughed. If I was really cold-blooded... He would have drowned long ago in a pile of old gambling debts. Seeing that being soft didn't work, they arrested him first play tough. That evening. They sneaked to my door, took red paint and smeared it haphazardly on the door and walls.
“Unfilial.”
"Pay."
“Not worthy of being a mother.”
Rows of bright red letters caught my eye, both disgusting and dazzling. I stood behind the door looking through the cat's eyes. Look at the three of them sneaking around like thieves. There is no anger in my heart. There is only a feeling of sadness that is difficult to put into words. Because I already predicted that they would play this game. So the camera was installed in advance.
