Chapter 40 Gilbert wanted to say something more. "They and I will never be family again." Dale was immediately taken away by the police. Upon hearing this news, the Campbells felt like their world had collapsed. +10 Free Coins They were furious after learning that Sherry had called the police. Hearing that they had arrived at the hospital. Claire and Teresa rushed over, causing everyone in the hospital to gather around to watch. Teresa rushed to the bedside, tears welling in her eyes, and said, "Sherry, how could you do this to Dale?
Just because Dale wanted to teach you a lesson, you put him in jail? How could you be so heartless? Even I feel so sorry for such a kind man like Dale. You can't hurt him like this just because you are his sister!" Claire burst into tears at the bedside. "Oh my, we fed you and raised you with such care and hardship. Dale just disciplined you a little on our behalf. He was doing it for your own good. Everyone, hear me out, my daughter is demanding a divorce because of her husband's sister. Isn't that absurd? It's perfectly reasonable for her brother to discipline her.
But she actually called the police and had him arrested! You be the judge. What kind of daughter is that? What would you do if you had a daughter like her?" This statement immediately enraged the onlookers, especially the parents who favored sons over daughters. "You gave birth to her and raised her, so she should be grateful. She should look at the hill behind our village. There are so many dead baby girls buried there. She should be grateful she's still alive!" "I think she's gone to far. How dare she do that to her brother? A son is the pillar of the family.

She really doesn't know what's good for her. A daughter like her should just be sold off and forgotten!" These words made many people uncomfortable. "It's the 21st century. There are still people who favor sons over daughters? Let's see how much money you have for your precious sons to inherit." "Although this kind of sexism is incredibly annoying, the brother's discipline of his sister was for her own good. She shouldn't have called the police. Otherwise, who will dare to discipline her in the future? The harmony of the family will be destroyed!" "Your daughter is indeed heartless.
No matter what, you raised her. How could she be so ungrateful?" "Stop whining here." Sherry pinched her temples. "We gave you $50 million to stop threatening me with the debt of raising me. What? Have you forgotten?" Claire's face stiffened. "Bullshit. I'm your mother. No matter what happens, I always have the right! You be the judge. Can family ties be severed and measured by money?" Sherry knew Claire love playing tricks. 1/2 16:43 Fri, Jan 9 Chapter 40 +10 Free Coins "Fine, since you won't admit it, then give back the $50 million. Don't forget you signed a contract.
If you breach it, you'll have to pay us $100 million." "What?" Claire stared at the contract in Sherry's hand, utterly incredulous. It did indeed state that if Claire took the money and then threatened Sherry with raising her, she would have to pay $100 million! At the time, Claire only thought about getting the $50 million by signing the contract. She hadn't carefully read what was written. She thought it couldn't threaten her. Sherry had always longed for love.
Claire thought that even if she broke the contract, the worst that could happen was that she would have to love Sherry more and treat her better, nothing more. She never expected she'd have to pay $100 million! How could that be? How could she possibly return money she'd already received? Terasa screamed. "You even cheated your own mother? You made her sign such an unreasonable contract. Do you have any family ties left?" Claire was indeed cunning. Without a word, she tore the contract up when no one was looking. Teresa laughed. "Mom, you're the smartest.
Sherry, what can you use to threaten us now?" Claire snorted. Of course she was the smartest. If she wasn't smart, could she have married into a wealthy family like the Campbell family? Without some tricks up her sleeve, how could she have gone from a street vendor to a rich lady? Claire and Teresa looked smug. Sherry, seeing their smiles, pulled another contract from under her pillow. "I know you like tearing up contracts. I have many copies. Take your time. The original is with the lawyer anyway." "You dare to play us!" Teresa was so angry she almost screamed.
Sherry, watching Teresa's dramatic performance, couldn't help but sneer. Teresa won the Campbells' favor through her poor acting skills. Before, she cared about them and feared it would only earn her more dislike, so she didn't dare to confront Teresa. Mark
