“Nathan, can you keep your voice down? This is the hospital.” Elena lowered her voice and looked at Nathan with a begging
gaze.
Seeing Elena suppress herself, Nathan became even more fierce.
“Did you take Ray’s pocket money? Hurry up and give Ray’s pocket money back,” Nathan said furiously pulling Elena’s arm. Elena lowered her head and said, “Grandma is suffering from such a serious illness. I can’t just watch aside. Ray doesn’t need those pocket money now, so I took out the 10 thousand dollars and paid for the medical expenses first.”
Elena’s voice became lower as she spoke. In the family, she didn’t make any money and didn’t dare to speak loudly, Hearing this, Nathan directly went up and grabbed Elena’s hair. He said with his teeth gritted, “Am I too kind to you? “You’ve married me. You should put your focus on our family. What’s more, you’re just her granddaughter. It’s not your turn to take care of her.
“You haven’t earned a penny. You’re lazy and only know how to spend money. But now you’re actually spending your son’s pocket money.
“No matter what, you won’t be able to get a penny from me from tomorrow. You find a way to repay Ray’s pocket money yourself.”
Nadia couldn’t bear to watch anymore. She stepped forward and pushed Nathan away, raising her eyes to stare at him angrily.
“Nathan, are you crazy? Is this how you bully my sister?
“Who washes the clothes you’re wearing? Who cooks the meals you cat every day? And who cleans the house?”
Nadia questioned loudly as she pulled Nathan’s clothes.
“You live a good life all day long with someone serving you, and it’s all because you
Nadia expressed all her dissatisfaction in one fell swoop.
have my sister.”
Elena was just too cowardly. In the beginning, she graduated from a famous university, and she worked in a listed company as a project manager.
Before she got married, she and Nathan’s relationship was great..
At that time, Elena had a good figure and was pretty, and she had many admirers around her. Nathan was a colleague of Elena. He chased Elena for half a year before Elena agreed to date him.
Two years later, Nathan finally wedded Elena, and not long after their marriage, Elena got pregnant.
At that time, Nathan patted his chest and asked Elena to quit her job and focus on their baby. He said that he would be responsible for making money to support the family and that Elena would only be responsible for taking care of herself and the baby.
He turned out to be a liar. Ever since Elena quit her job and gave birth to a child, she had been out of shape. She had grown directly from 110 pounds to 176 pounds. Her belly also became flabby.
In addition, during the lactation period, she did not pay attention to weight loss in order to provide her son with milk, and as a result, she became increasingly overweight.
In three years, Nathan’s attitude toward Elena changed. How much he liked her back then, how much he disliked her now. For the sake of her kid and family, Elena sacrificed her future and resigned from her job to come home and take care of her son and Nathan’s parents, but in the end, this was the outcome.
Nadia really felt bad for her sister.
“Nadia, I’m your brother–in–law. Don’t shout in front of me. I pay for your sister’s food, clothes, and daily necessities. What’s wrong with her doing some household chores?”
After saying that, Nathan used his hand to tighten his grip on Elena’s neck and forcefully pushed her forward, saying in a commanding tone, “Hurry up. Go back and cook for me. I’m starving!”
Nadia could not stand her sister being bullied like this by Nathan. She went forward to grab Nathan’s hand and gave him a shoulder throw.
Bang!
“Ouch, my
“You.
waist!
murderer!”

Ear–piercing screams resounded throughout the corridor.
“Nathan, didn’t I tell you not to bully my sister?” Nadia questioned loudly.
Nathan was sprawling on the floor of the corridor, wailing non–stop.
He said with a sobbing voice, “I bullied her? I think it’s you two who have teamed up to bully met
“I’m going to call the police. My waist is broken and I can’t move.”
As Nathan spoke, he wanted to take out his cell phone and call the police.
“Yes, you should call the police. I happened to need the police to judge and show everyone how you treat my sister!
“You dare to bully my sister like this in front of everyone in the hospital. If you were at home and no one was watching, wouldn’t you bully my sister even more severely?
“There’s also a surveillance camera there. What you just did was all recorded by the surveillance camera.”
After saying that, Nadia pointed to the surveillance camera in the corner.
Nathan, who was very arrogant just now, had to change the topic at the moment. “My waist was broken by you. I need to have my waist X–ray.”
Nadia turned around as if she didn’t hear him and walked in the direction of the ward.
Just before reaching the entrance of the ward, Ray was standing there with a lollipop and tears falling from his face.
Ray looked pitifully at Nadia and pointed at Nathan, saying, “Auntie Nadia, Dad’s too violent…”
Nadia hurriedly squatted down, picked up Ray, and said in a low voice soothingly, “Good boy. Don’t cry. I’ll protect you and
your mom.”
Elena wanted to walk over to help Nathan up, but at the thought of what he had just said, she turned around and followed Nadia into the ward.
There were more and more people watching outside the corridor, only to see Nathan, a big man, sprawling in the corridor. People were pointing at him, and he was so embarrassed by what they were saying about him. He had to get up from the ground. Patting the dust on his ass, he said viciously, “Elena, don’t expect me to provide you with living expenses until you get the money back.”
After saying that, he hurried in the direction of the elevator entrance.
Nadia walked over to her sister with Ray in her arms and asked, “Elena, did he do anything to you before I came?” Being afraid that Nadia might be worried, Elena smoothed her hair and tied it, saying reassuringly. “He didn’t do anything to me. Don’t worry about me. It’s just that grandma’s medical expenses are still 90 thousand dollars short, and our uncles still refuse to help. What should we do?”
“Elena, don’t worry. I’ve already raised the money. I’ll pay for grandma’s surgery.”
She said as she hugged Ray while walking toward her grandmother’s hospital room.
When Elena heard this, she hurriedly pulled Nadia’s shoulder and asked, “Nadia, you didn’t do anything stupid, did you? Where did you get so much money?”
She eagerly pursued her question, both worried and scared in her heart.
“Elena, what are you thinking about? How could I have done anything stupid? I borrowed the money from someone else.”
“Who did you borrow it from?” Elena was still worried. After all, this money was not a small amount.
“Elena, just leave it alone. I can handle it.” Nadia didn’t want her sister to worry.
Being afraid that Elena would continue to ask, Nadia had to push her toward the door.
“How about you go back first? Ray is only two years old. It’s not good for him to stay in the hospital all the time. I’ll be here taking care of grandma.”
Glancing at her grandmother lying on the hospital bed, Elena said in a low voice, “You haven’t eaten yet, right? I’ll go back to cook first and bring the food over to you later then.”
Nadia nodded. She couldn’t cook at home right now because there were no cooking utensils. She had to leave the cooking to
Elena.
Their grandmother still needed something nutritious.
Nadia took out her cell phone and transferred 400 dollars to Elena.
She looked up at Elena’s back, knowing that Elena had been having a difficult time all these years.
The money of Elena’s family was in Nathan’s hands, and Elena didn’t have much money. She paid 10 thousand dollars for

their grandmother’s medical expenses, so she might not even have the money to buy groceries.
Nadia sent a WhatsApp message to Elena. (Elena, take this money. It’s grandma’s living expenses).
In less than five seconds, Elena replied to her. [Nadia, I have money!]
[I can’t take your money. I can’t even do anything to help with grandma’s medical expenses that I have to rely on you. It’s really a hard time for you].
Looking at Elena’s messages. Nadia’s heart was full of mixed feelings.
[I know. Whether you have money or not, just take it.]
After sending the message, Nadia sat by her grandmother’s hospital bed. Looking at her pale, disease–tortured, and skinny grandmother, she couldn’t help but shed tears on her face.
“Grandma, I registered my marriage today. You must get well quickly. I’ll bring my husband to visit you…”
