Chapter 426 I Will Give You The Money

As Mary looked at the sensible Tim and then at the useless toxic son she had, sorrow filled her heart.

She turned around to get the medicine.

Tim followed closely after her. “Grandma, where are you going?”

“I’m going to get some medicine. Your wound must be treated, otherwise, it could become serious.”

Mary looked at the bloody wound and was very worried.

“Grandma, you go ahead and eat, I’ll apply the medicine myself!”

With that, Tim ran to the house nearby to find a Band-Aid.

He was accustomed to getting injured during work. After cleaning away the blood, he put on the Band-Aid and ran back out.

As Mary watched on, she wiped away a tear.

She was rather regretful about bringing Tim home back then.

I should have sent him to an orphanage. Perhaps, he would have had a better life there.

“Tim, you must apply medicine before putting on the Band-Aid. The way that you did it will not stop the bleeding.

“Grandma, I’ve already smeared some medicine on it earlier.”

Tim nodded vigorously to convince Mary.

“Let me see it, then.”

Mary pulled him close and checked his arm. She only stopped worrying when she saw that the bleeding had stopped.

“Tim, you must avoid getting water on the wound until it’s healed, okay?”

“All right, I got it. Grandma, I’m fine. Come on, we have to go and eat our meal or Uncle Raphael is going to finish it all!”

Tim steadied Mary and led her over to the dining table.

“Okay, let’s eat.”

They went into the kitchen together, only to see that Raphael had finished eating. All that was left on the table were empty plates.

“I never would have thought that you can cook so well, kid. Remember to cook more next time, you hear?”

Raphael threw down his fork, kicked his chair away, and walked toward them.

Boiling with rage, Mary instinctively pushed Tim behind her back.

She glared at her son. “I can’t believe you just ate everything! You didn’t leave a little for Tim!”

Tim was very angry as well, not because he had nothing to eat, but rather because Mary did not get any food.

“You are really too much! Why didn’t you leave some for Grandma?”

Raphael glanced at them with disgust. “You know, people who don’t know us might think you two are the related ones here while I was the one picked up from the bin!”

Furious upon hearing that, Mary spat, “It would have been better if I didn’t give birth to you! You are nothing compared to Tim! It’s bad enough that you’re lazy but you’re a gambling addict as well. Look at you, you’ve gambled away every item we own. You even let a child work to support you. Don’t you think that you’re shameless?”

“What is so shameful about that? I am able to earn money, too. Old hag, you are the one who is lazy and does not work. I only gamble to earn more money. Since you have the time to nag at me about it, why don’t you go to work and earn some money instead? Just shut up and go away!”

Raphael’s curses were unbearable to hear. Completely ignoring the fact that she was his mother, he shoved Mary away. Then, he grabbed Tim.

“Grandma…” Tim uttered, his heart aching for the older woman.

“Give me your money!” Raphael spat.

Tim struggled hard. He glared at the man and stood his ground stubbornly.

“I don’t have any money!”

“D*mn you! Do you want to die?”

Raphael lifted his hand, about to give the boy a slap.

Mary, who had just steadied herself, was horrified and rushed over.

“Don’t you dare lay your hand on Tim! You’re nothing but a heartless beast with no conscience!”

Mary slammed her body hard into Raphael while Tim lowered his head and bit his arm. The pain caused him to let go of Tim.

“You son of a b*tch! How dare you bite me!”

Anger surging within him, Raphael started throwing punches and kicks.

Mary ran over to Tim and held him tight, protecting him with her body.

“Get out of the way!”

With a vicious expression, Raphael kicked at his aged mother.

Regardless, Mary continued holding on to Tim tightly.

“Grandma… Grandma…”

Tim was so frightened that he started bawling.

“Uncle Raphael, stop it! Grandma can’t take such a beating! I’ll give you the money, okay?”

If you keep on beating her, Grandma will die.

Raphael finally stopped upon hearing that. Hmph! Seems like this is still the best way to get this son of a b*tch to submit.

“You should have just given me the money earlier, then you could have avoided this beating.”
