Chapter 4

Miriam's POV

I froze for a second, stunned. Before I could even process what was happening, Oliver stormed into the room.

“Mom! I just checked your retirement card. There’s only three grand left in it!” he shouted. “You need to explain right now where all that money went. Otherwise, forget about having the surgery!”

Alvin and Edwin immediately stopped arguing. Both turned to stare at me in shock.

“Three grand?” Alvin echoed, eyes wide. “That’s impossible! That account had 1.8 million. How could it just disappear?”

I looked at the three of them, suspicious, accusatory eyes fixed on me, and finally, after ten years of swallowing bitterness and betrayal, I couldn’t hold it in anymore.

“You seriously have the nerve to question me about the money?” I snapped.

My outburst caught Oliver off guard. He flinched, but quickly recovered, his embarrassment flipping into anger.

“Why shouldn’t we ask?” he shot back. “That money came from us! We’re entitled to know!”

Alvin then chimed in, fuming. “Exactly! Mom, are you even listening to yourself? That money was ours. And I need it now!”

Edwin also joined in, arms crossed. “Right! It’s not like you’re using it anyway!”

Their voices kept rising, drawing more and more attention. Soon, patients, family members, even nurses and doctors gathered at the door, forming a small crowd.

Someone even took out their phone and started a livestream.

“Guys, check this out,” the livestreamer said, camera pointed straight at me. “This old lady’s sons gave her 1.8 million for retirement, and now the money’s just vanished. And she won’t say where it went.”

Comments flooded the screen in real time.

[She’s probably planning to take it all to the grave.]

[Bet she gave it to her loser brother or something. Gross!]

[Nah, I think she got scammed by some fake ‘godson’ and is too embarrassed to admit it. These lonely old folks, man.]

People passing by glared at me with disgust. Someone even threw garbage at me, and someone else dumped urine.

And through it all, my three sons just stood there, watching silently, doing nothing.

“Mom, please,” Oliver said coldly. “Just tell us where the retirement money went.”

“We’re your own children,” added Alvin. “Do you really think we’d hurt you?”

Just then, my phone buzzed. I looked down, saw the message, and gave a bitter smile.

Finally, this nightmare was about to end.

I wiped the filth from my face, let out a dry laugh, and said, “You want the truth? Fine. You want to know what happened to your money? Well, open your eyes and take a good look.”

I pulled up the document my niece had just sent me, the complete transaction history from the retirement card over the past ten years, and held it up for them all to see.

The crowd leaned in, curious. The livestream camera zoomed in for a better look.

But before the screen could focus, all three brothers suddenly panicked.

Their faces changed instantly. Oliver jumped in front of the phone, blocking the view.
