With 500 Million in Hand, I was Kicked Out By My Parents

After I, Marina Kessler, was finally able to get USD 500 million after working so hard, I jokingly told my mother that I no longer needed to work anymore. I told my parents that wanted to go to my home to live off from both of them. Oh, how wrong I was!

To my shock, I was immediately kicked out by my own parents after I got home. What shocked me even more was my room was used to keep my sister-in-law’s dog. In fact, I couldn’t even live there anymore!

In fact, my sister-in-law had the audacity to say, “You’re a single old woman and unemployed! So, why would I give my dog’s room for you back!”

When I graduated from my university, I was able to build my network and able to get around 4 million USD to develop the security programme I developed at the time. When I told my parents excitedly, they told me that they didn’t believe me.

After all, I was nothing but a girl. In their minds, there was no way that I would be able to gather USD 30 million. In fact, my brother straight-up accused me of lying.

This was indeed the way I was raised by my family. My parents would always belittle me, but they woud praise my older brother, Donald, for the tiniest thing he did just because he was born a son unlike me who was born as a daughter. Even though my brother never even studied, that jerk said that he worked in order to support me to go to university. That was a lie.

I was able to enter the university due to a full scholarship I got on my own. Not only that I even worked part-time during my summer vacation so that I could pay my own rent, food and so many more. In fact, I never even took a penny from my brother.

Unfortunately, my parents kept refusing to believe in me. Eventually, I realized that it was pointless telling them. I ended up telling them that I was just a normal employee. After all, it became clear to me that my parents didn’t wish for me to be more successful than their son. Yet, they still dared to ask me money to cover their living expenses every month.

Despite them belittling me, I tried to be a good daughter to my parents. Besides, I was able to live decently even if I sent them money. Not only that, my brother just got married and had a ‘baby’ with my sister-in-law. So, I felt the obligation to send them money every month.

Not too long ago, the security application I developed alongside with my team became a favorite of multinational companies. In fact, our application was worthy of USD 500 million. Those companies tried to buy it from us, but I eventually decided to refuse their offer and sold them to our government instead.

Since the amount was so huge for me to handle, I decided to hire a CEO to manage my company so that I could enjoy my life more. After that, I called my mother and told her that I wanted to go home. When my mother asked me why I wanted to go home out of nowhere, I told her that I had made USD 500 million.

The moment my mother heard my answer, she just sneered mockignly. She even openly told me that she didn’t believe me at all. Knowing that she wouldn’t believe me, I told her that I was fired recently and needed to go home to rely on them until I could find another job. After that, I told them to pick me up on the train station.

However, I was shocked to find that nobody came to pick me up on the train station despite waiting for them from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. As I tried to call my parents, my brother and my sister-in-law, nobody answered. This was nothing new, sadly.

Eventually, I took a taxi to the apartment. As soon as I knocked on the door, I was stunned to see someone before me.

“Oh, Marina, you’re back?” she asked me as she sneered.

It was my sister-in-law, Violet Kessler, who opened the door for me. Seeing me here, she just forced out a fake smile at me. As for me, I just nodded without saying anything before I entered my very own home.

Violet then tried to make an excuse as she said, “My Perry is sick, so I forgot to pick you up from the station.”

Perry was her dog, which was a gray Chihuahua. Just because her dog was sick, my family ignored me who waited for them on a train station for a whole day. Unfortunately, they were my real family.

“It’s okay,” I told her quietly.

After that, I walked towards my room because I was so tired.

When I was about to reach my room, my mother got out of the kitchen and asked me mockingly, “Oh, Marina is back? Didn’t you say on the phone that you were worthy of USD 500 million dollar? So, why did you go home unemployed then?”

Hearing that, Violet joined my mother as she sneered before she said, “Well, Mom, you know that Marina likes bragging. Why do you even take it seriously?”

My father, who was sitting on the couch and drank his beer, also followed along as he sneered mockingly and said, “Huh! Worthy of USD 500 million, you said? This girl isn’t even worthy of 500 million USD even if she sold herself to those hungry men!”

Lastly, my brother mockingly said, “My friend runs a nightclub. I’ll tell him to introduce you to a hostess to get a job there. You definitely can make us a lot of money there!”

Not only that, the dog even barked at me as it looked at me fiercely.

After that, my sister-in-law made another sarcastic remark, “Oh, Perry, you’re so smart. You can even tell that Marina was only bragging about 500 million bullshit, right?”

When I wasn’t here, they would live blissfully happy in their daily lives. Yet, they immediately made me their punching bag as soon as I came here. It really broke my spirit. However, the truth remained. What I said was indeed true. I was worthy of USD 500 million.

I couldn’t help but try to defend myself as I said, “I’m not lying. The security application I developed with my time was recently bought by our government. My worth is USD 500 million now.”
