Leah’s face was sullen. How dared Finn Chen to buy such an expensive car?
“Where did you get the money?” Leah asked.
Fay and Dalton were shocked. Leah seemed not to know about this thing. What a good play!
“Mom, it’s Finn’s money.” Maura lied.
Finn was moved. He knew Maura cared about his face, but Leah, such a sharp person, wouldn’t be cheated like this.
As expected, Leah stared at Maura. “Do you think I’m a fool? He is just a delivery man, so how could he afford such an expensive car?”
“Maura, tell me if Finn asked you to corrupt the money in Spring Hill project?”
“Mom, what are you talking about!” Maura was enraged. How could Leah think Finn as a snob?
“If it was not from the project, where could you get the money?” Leah roared.
“It was from Thad Gu.” Maura had to tell the truth. She told Leah the thing that happened in Moon Villa yesterday.
Leah was doubtful. Why did Thad Gu compensate Maura for such much money?
Fay and Dalton’s eyes turned green. They didn’t know who Thad Gu was, but they heard that Maura had 1,500,000! Even if she had spent 500,000 to buy a car, there was still 1,000,000 yuan!
The two’s breath became heavier.
“Did Thad Gu truly give you and Laura Xu 3,000,000?” Leah asked again.
Maura nodded.
Leah was furious. If Fay and Dalton didn’t come here today, Maura might keep this secret forever.
Maura wasn’t like this before. It must be Finn who persuaded Maura to cheat her. Leah’s disgust to Finn became more.
“Why did you buy a car for Finn? Do you know how hard life is in our family? Finn is just a delivery man, so why did you buy such an expensive car?” Leah roared to Maura.
Then, she looked at Finn with disgust. “And you, Finn, you’d better keep your little tricks away! I don’t mind you eating ours and using ours, but if you dare to touch Maura’s money again, I’ll throw you out of our family! We don’t feed such an ungrateful wolf!”
Leah’s words were really mean. Though Finn was tolerant, he had been enraged.
“Mom, it’s not what you think. I was willing to buy this car for Finn.” Maura was about to cry. She didn’t expect that just buying a car made Leah curse Finn as an ungrateful liar.
“Shut up!” Leah glared at Maura. “Do you still regard me as your mother?”
“Finn, returned the car tomorrow, and take back the money to me, or I’ll make you regret.” Leah wasn’t willing to compromise. It was 500,000! And it was totally a waste to buy a car for Finn!
“Oh, Leah, what are you thinking about? There is still no end between Finn and us, so the money should belong to me.” Fay suddenly stepped out.
“What does it have to do with you?” Leah was enraged.
“Leah, be polite!” Fay was sharp, as well. She stood akimbo, shouting. “Leah, don’t you hear me clearly? Your son-in-law, Finn Chen, wanted to kill me by the car! And he has hurt my son and me. You can’t deal with it like this!”
“Son, come here and let your aunt see how heavy Finn Chen has beaten you.”
Dalton Lin raised his shirt immediately, showing the wounds on his body. Some of them were caused by Finn, but more were pinched by Fay to pretend to be severe.
As expected, Leah’s face became gloomier.
“Don’t trick me. How could this coward beat Dalton like this?” Leah said. She was not a fool. She didn’t believe Finn could beat Dalton like this.
“Leah, what do you mean? Do you think I’m cheating? Many people have seen Finn beat my son, so you don’t want to deny.” Fay’s voice sounded sharp.
Leah looked at Finn. Finn admitted. “It was me.”
Then it was Leah’s turn to be shocked. Did this coward fight so well?
Fay said with complacence. “Do you hear that? Indeed, this worm has beaten my son.”
“Mom, don’t listen to her. My aunt was faking an accident to claim for compensation, and Dalton fought first, as well.” Maura explained.
“Dalton fought first, but why did Finn hit back?” Leah asked. Though she agreed with Maura’s word, she had to stand by Fay’s side. Because Fay was so sharp that she would make a mess in Leah’s house if she couldn’t satisfy.
Why did he hit back? Finn bit his lips. Leah was so unreasonable that she even asked him not to hit back when someone beat him.
“Mom, you’ve disappointed me so much!”
Maura roared. Leah’s words made her feel cold. No matter what, Finn was her husband, but Leah treated him so terribly that even Finn couldn’t hit back when he was beaten.
