Nephew Smashed a Porcelain Vase Worth $200000 in the Museum
Chapter 2
My mother lost her temper and went up to push the staff.
"Everyone, please reason it out. Which museum would carelessly display its collections outside? So many children are here, and it's inevitable that the collections will be bumped by them. You are deliberately trying to extort money from us!"
The staff were so angry that their eyes turned red and said they would call the police to resolve the issue.
Hearing that they were going to call the police, my mother and Ella were scared.
Finally, the manager in charge was called and decided to make them pay 150,000 dollars in damages.
My mother looked at me with burning eyes, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
I knew what she meant, and I made a helpless gesture with both hands.
"Mom, I've spent so much money on this trip, and I haven't even bought our tickets back yet!"
They had no choice but to call Chad to ask for money, and he got furious on the phone.
When we got home and opened the door,
we saw Chad sitting on the sofa with a grim face.
Seeing us come back, he was furious. He grabbed Hale and beat him.
"I work hard to make money, but you compensated 150,000 dollars."
My mother quickly held Hale in her arms and dodged with dissatisfaction.
"Enough. The compensation has already been paid. It's no use hitting him. Besides, we still have Kelly. We paid out 150,000 dollars this time, and we will have a tough time. Kelly won't ignore you."
My mother pulled me.
"Kelly, right?"
I forced a smile.
"Of course, we are all family, and we're going to get through this together."
After hearing that, Chad's face softened.
I pulled the frightened Hale aside, and he asked me in fear,
"Auntie, did I make a mistake?"
I stroked his head and whispered to him to comfort him.
"No. You are the most sensible boy. It's all the museum's fault. This valuable collection didn't even have a glass cover."
When Hale heard what I said, his expression immediately turned from gloomy to bright, and he spoke to me with his chest puffed out as if to take credit.
"Right. That broken porcelain vase is not pretty at all. I broke it on purpose!"
I clapped my hands encouragingly.
"You are the best. You just remember that we are all your strong backers. You cannot suffer any grievances outside. You are the only boy in our family. Everything in the family will be yours. Your parents still helped you this time. No matter what you do, they will always help you, so don't be afraid and do whatever you want."
Hale seemed to understand what I said.
I just wanted him to understand that he didn't have to care about anything and could do whatever he wanted.
He nodded heavily.
It was two months later that I saw Hale again.
When my mother called me recently, I always used the excuse that I was busy with work.
"Chad and Ella paid so much money, and I have to earn more money to help them."
After hearing that, my mother nodded repeatedly and stopped urging me to go home.
That day I wanted to go back and get something.
As soon as I opened the door, I was drenched with water. Hale held the water gun and screamed,
"Drowned rat! Drowned rat!"
My mother and Ella sat on the sofa, smiling at him lovingly.
I wasn't angry and just said,
"You are so great. You has grown taller and stronger in the past few months. But you can't treat others like this outside."
Ella glanced at me with dissatisfaction.
"Instead of disciplining my son, you might as well find someone to marry."
I smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
