Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 63

So this was all?

What did Demaris's going to college have to do with me? What did Sherley's studying in school of art have to do with me? What was the point of telling me this school tuition?

I pretended to be confused and looked at them. Uncle looked at me and was obviously very angry. But he still said patiently, "My sister told me that she wanted to help the two children to school when she was alive. But now she is gone, and the money is in your hands. So I can only tell you that your brother's education is gonna cost about 60,000, and your sister's is about 80,000. What's more, your grandpa and grandma have been in poor health recently. In short, we are gonna 200,000 bucks from you."

He said it very directly. I turned my head to look at Benjamin, who was playing with the glass. His expression was one of disdain.

I opened my mouth and denied, "I didn't hear about it from my mother, and what's more, I intend to donate her money to the orphanage."

"You'd rather give the money to some wile b*stards you don't even know than your own siblings?" Uncle's face instantly sank, and he raised his hand to slap me!

Had he gone insane? At this time, Benjamin suddenly got up and took a bottle of wine from the front of him, and poured himself a glass of wine.

Then he raised his hand and made a toast.

His actions stunned aunt and uncle. Benjamin raised his head and drank the wine. With a loud bang, he threw the cup on the table. "This is a token of my respect for you as elders. But after this, you'd better mind your words and your actions, especially towards Emma!"

Both of them were stunned and looked at Benjamin in horror.

Benjamin grabbed my hand and left. When I sat in his car, I observed his indifferent face and asked after a long time of hesitation, "Benjamin, were you angry just now?"

"You call those disgusting garbage family?"

"Benjamin was indeed angry and felt distressed for me.

I comforted him softly, "You don't have to get angry at them. Besides, I won't give them a penny."

Benjamin was silent. After thinking for a while, I said, "I plan to donate the money to the orphanage where my sister used to live."

He replied, "Cool."

I called him, "Benjamin."

He replied, "Yup."

I called again, "Ben."

"..." He was silent.

I looked at him and asked cautiously, "Where is the child?"

He knew that I was asking about the unborn child five years ago because he had not taken the initiative to mention it until now.

Even up to this point, I still didn't know if the child was still alive. Benjamin, wearing a ring, gently tapped the steering wheel. When he did this, it meant that he was thinking about things.

After a long time, he said, "He didn't come into the world."

At that time, Benjamin told a big lie, but at that time, I completely trusted him.

He said that the child didn't come into the world, so I didn't dare to ask anymore.

When we were about to arrive at the city, Benjamin got a call. He glanced at the number and handed it to me, asking me to answer. I answered it and put the phone beside my ear. I heard an active voice ask, "Benjamin, Aunt Victoria came over to see you. Grandpa is also looking for you. Where are you?"

I said softly, "It's me, Ellis."

"Where's Benjamin?" Ellis muttered to himself on the other end of the line. "I haven't dialed the wrong number. Who are you?"

I said again, "It's me, Aunty Emma."

"Aunty Emma! Aunty, Benjamin told me that you were sad, so he left me. Where is he now?"

"Well, Benjamin is driving." I explained softly, and then I asked him in a low voice, "Ellis is looking for you. Who is he? You seem to like him very much."

If Benjamin did not like this child, he would not give him his cell phone, let alone let him have a chance to steal it.

Benjamin grinned, and a soft voice came from the other end of the phone. "Auntie, I heard what you said," said the person on the other end of the line.

I smiled awkwardly. "I'm just curious."

Ellis said happily, "Benjamin is my uncle."

I asked casually, "What's your father's name?"

I was just randomly asking because I didn't know how to continue the conversation except for this question.

Ellis suddenly said gloomily, "My father is Connor."

I felt funny and asked, "I remember that you said that Connor is your uncle."

In fact, I didn't even know who Connor was.

But now... he should be the brother of Benjamin.

Ellis's voice was downcast. "Aunty Emma, Dad often leaves me alone, so I don't recognize him as my father."

"Your father may just be busy." I comforted him.

"He's just hooking up with girls!" Ellis said angrily, "Girls I love!"

What did a kid know about love?

Benjamin took the phone from my hand and said to Ellis, "You tell Grandpa that I will return to City B in a few days."
