"Mom, why are you all acting like this now?" Emerie Wilson was extremely aggrieved, "I just want to divorce Benjamin now; if you give me some money, I can get divorced."
"You and Benjamin..." Old Mrs. Wilson started to say a few words but was interrupted by Emerie, "Mom, you don’t know how outrageous Benjamin is. He actually brought the woman from outside back home, along with that illegitimate child."
"Now they live together as a family, while I feel like an outsider. I can’t live like this anymore!" Emerie felt all kinds of grievance whenever she mentioned this, and tears welled up again.
"Mom, give me money, I don’t want to be with Benjamin anymore!"
"Why do you need money to divorce him?" Old Mrs. Wilson didn’t understand.
Old Mrs. Wilson snorted coldly and said, "Benjamin transferred the company’s debts to you, didn’t he? You want to divorce, but you have to cover the money first before you can, right?"
"Yes, yes! Benjamin is so shameless, I consulted a lawyer, and if I get divorced, those debts will be partly mine." Emerie complained angrily, "Benjamin is truly despicable!"
After listening, Old Mrs. Wilson was also indignant, joining in the cursing of Benjamin: "How can he behave this way? Haven’t we treated him well enough over the years?"
"Confused!" Old Mrs. Wilson had been in business for many years, having seen everything. He had always felt that since she was his daughter, it was okay to pamper her a little bit, but after all these recent events, he truly felt disheartened.
"Do you think she’s the innocent one?" Old Mrs. Wilson glared angrily at Old Mrs. Wilson, "She’s just selfish!"
Old Mrs. Wilson looked blankly at the heartbroken, angry Old Mrs. Wilson and asked confusedly, "What’s going on?"
"Did Benjamin ever tell you that if you don’t get divorced, he will make money to repay the company’s debt, it’s none of your business? But if you divorce, the debt falls on you?" Old Mrs. Wilson turned to question Emerie.
Emerie started a bit staggered, but then spoke more confidently: "He, he said that, but he brought that woman into the house, why should I tolerate this? Live those stifling days at the Walton Family?"
"I want to divorce him!" Emerie’s resolute words elicited nothing but a cold laugh from Old Mrs. Wilson.
"If you want to divorce him, just go get the divorce certificate. The reason you haven’t is you want to make sure we’ll definitely give you money, enough to clear that debt, not dragging you down, only then will you divorce!"
Old Mrs. Wilson was increasingly disappointed as he spoke.
"Emerie, we are your parents, are you scheming against even us?" Old Mrs. Wilson asked heart-wrenchingly.
Old Mrs. Wilson was also incredulous, looking at Emerie: "Emerie, how can you do this?"
"Mom, how can you say that about me too?" Emerie looked at Old Mrs. Wilson, unable to bear it, "I have a bad heart, do you still want me to earn this money? How can I possibly earn it?"
"You should hurry and give me the money, once I’m divorced from Benjamin, I’ll come back to live here, then you can see me every day, we’ll be together, happy and carefree..." Emerie’s bright vision left Old Mrs. Wilson’s heart growing colder and colder.
This was the daughter she had doted on for a lifetime?
How could this happen?
She turned out to be selfish to this extent, never considering them a bit?
