Useless Parents, Please don't Regret it

"You want me to leave? Sure. Just give me my things back."

I took a deep breath and reached out to Gerry. "Give me the keys to the two cars.

"I'm going to load all the things onto the cars later."

But Gerry looked very unwilling.

"Why?"

"I bought the things at home! It has nothing to do with you!"

Wendy sat on the floor and shouted.

"She's right! Nothing here has anything to do with you."

My mother echoed.

"If you want to leave, leave. But don't even think about taking anything with you."

My father sat down and said coldly, holding a glass of wine.

"Ursula, enough. Stop it. If word gets out, we'll look bad. Let's both take a step back, shall we?"

Gerry frowned, looking as if he was letting me off generously.

They were so disgusting.

"Get lost! Now!

"Go away. We don't wanna see you!"

My mother picked up a broom and started hitting me with it.

It hurt so much that I gritted my teeth.

"You don't recognize me as family, do you? Are you sure?"

I was forced to the doorstep, clenching my fists and asking.

"We are sure!

"Go to hell!"

Mom nodded.

Dad and Gerry consented.

"OK. As of tonight, we are done! If you ever run into something, don't come and beg me."

I said coldly.

"Beg you? Are you kidding? You're an unemployed loser. What can you do? Take your luggage and get out of here."

Wendy threw my suitcase out and locked the door.

It started to rain.

The rain poured down on me.

It was so cold.

My heart was utterly cold, too.

I walked alone in the rain. I couldn't find a taxi in the village, so I had to call my good friend Dale Morales for help.

Dale was my college classmate, a fellow villager from the same county, and also a business partner.

We were always close.

After he heard about my situation, he immediately asked his relatives who were around to send me to the county so that I could temporarily stay in a hotel.

After taking a shower, I calmed down completely and immediately contacted the company's lawyer, preparing to use legal means to get back everything that belonged to me.

Anyway, I had all the purchase records and invoices.

I had the chat records, too.

So, I could have most of my things back. As for the rest, I might as well let them have it. Consider it as a charity.

I prepared an apartment in the school district in town for Gerry and Wendy to take care of Jack when Jack went to school.

Fortunately, they kicked me out before I could tell them.

Otherwise, I would have been deceived for a long time.

I might as well sell the place now.

So, I took two days off and went to a reliable agency to discuss selling the place and also to buy a seaside villa.

Unluckily, I bumped into Gerry and Wendy.

"Ursula?

"What a coincidence. Are you here to look for a job?"

Wendy squinted her eyes and asked with a gloating tone.

"Ursula, why don't you go home and apologize to Wendy and Mom and Dad?"

Gerry smiled.

They thought I was down and out, and they spoke with sarcasm and ridicule. little did they know that I wasn't short of money at all.

"I think you've made a mistake. I am here to sell my apartment and also buy a villa."

I said lightly.

I could face them calmly.

Why should I be angry with clowns?

"Your company went bankrupt, and you owe a lot of debt. How could you have an apartment? How could you afford a villa? Are you crazy?"

Wendy laughed until tears came out of her eyes.

At this moment, the agent came out of the office and saw us. She couldn't help but be stunned and said, "You already know each other?"

"Of course."

Wendy glanced at me and said to the agent, "She is my husband's sister, but she cut ties with us a few days earlier. She's just a woman in her thirties who failed in business. No man wants her.

"Don't hire her."
