After hanging up the phone, Monica fell asleep. Because there was no phone call from Roland Wang, and she was too sleepy, she slept at noon.
After getting up, she saw her uncle Xanjer Mo sitting on the sofa with a worried look. "Moni, we may have to move!"
"Why?"
"I just saw an announcement posted in the hall saying that VSUS had bought this place to build a large shopping mall." Uncle sighed. "Now the housing price is so high, and our house is small. The cost of demolition is not enough to buy a new house."
Monica lowered her head. "Uncle, I'm sorry! It's all my fault."
When she was in college, she swore to give a good life for her uncle, but she couldn't stop Quarmy Huo from pursuing her and ending up entering the marriage with him.
In the eyes of the members of the Huo family, she was a true Cinderella. She had no family background or money. Other than her face, there was nothing else worth mentioning.
Quarmy Huo's mother, Jenny Sun, had been unhappy about her and Quarmy Huo's affairs. Before they got married, the parents of the two sides had said something unpleasant. Although her uncle was poor, he was tough. In the past few years when she married Quarmy Huo, he did not take the initiative to visit the Huo family, let alone ask her for a penny.
Later, when she got divorced, she went out of her house without a penny. In the end, she returned to Jiang City with nothing but to go to her uncle. Her uncle was fired a few days after she returned to Jiang City. It never rains, but it pours.
Her uncle was not well-educated, and he was not in good health. At that time, Monica was so angry that she was looking for a job everywhere, but no company was willing to accept her. Even if she went to a restaurant to do a wash pot, no one was willing to accept her.
Life became more and more difficult without a source of income. Her uncle's low amount of social security was not enough for the live expense, and then so many things happened...
