Jonathan arrives at Jacey's bedroom and tries to open the door. However, it was futile, because Jacey had locked it from the inside.
"Tok tok ."
Jonathan knocked on the door and said, "It's me, Jace, open the door."
After a while, the sound of the door opening could be heard, but the door remained closed.
Jonathan pushes open the door and enters, only to see an angry Jacey on the bed.
Jacey is only sixteen this year, studying her first year of high school in Shu City . His father Yousef has attracted many connections to enroll Jacey into a good high school.
Jacey is currently in a rebellious age, so she wants revenge when her mother is beaten.
It was only natural that he felt angry when his father told him to stay at home.
“What happened, Jas ? Tell me,” Jonathan said as he walked over to pat Jacey on the shoulder.
“Jonathan ! Quin hit my mom! I'll kill him, but my father won't let me go ! Just because my father is a coward doesn't mean I am too!” jace said furiously.
Jonathan hits the back of Jacey's head and reprimands, “Excuse me? Who talks about their father like that, huh?”
“I'm not wrong!” Jacey denied.
“Your father is not a coward, he is logical. What if something happens to her? What will happen to you and your sister? Your mother's back is weak, she can't do anything too tiring. Your father supported your entire family, he already has enough in his hands. How can you call him a coward? ”
“If he is unable to leave, then at least let me! But he won't let me go.”
“Stop saying that you will kill people here and there. Your mother would be heartbroken if anything happened to you. It happened because of me, so let me finish this, okay? I promise I will get justice.”
"Thank you?" ask Jacey.
"of course! Just wait! Once Aunt Sally's back recovers, we'll go and get revenge for Aunt Sally!'
"Good! You said it, Jonathan ! ”
In the living room, Jonathan tells Uncle Yousef that he wants to take Aunt Sally to River City for treatment.
Yousef thought about it and agreed, then he called his boss and asked for leave.
He had wanted to take Sally to the big hospital in River City for a long time, but Sally had always refused.
Actually, Sally just wanted to save on expenses. After all, Yousef was the only one working in this house and their current expenditure was already quite high.
Sally woke up not long after.
Jonathan hurried over. “Aunt Selly! How you feeling?"
“Jonathan? Why are you here?" ask Selly.
"Aunt Sally, how could I not come back when something this big happened?" Jonathan answered.
"That's no big deal. My back is always bad. I'll be fine after a few days.”
“Aunt Sally, why should you go and ask Bobby for compensation? Don't you know what kind of person he is?”
“But your parents left the money for you. You'll graduate from university, and you'll need that money to plan your wedding. I have to get it back for you! Plus, we have an agreement that he signed. Worse to be the worst, we can file a lawsuit against him! ” reply Selly.
"good. We can talk about it later, the most important thing now is to get treatment for your back. I've called a nice hospital in River City, and we can leave in a minute.”
“City River? I'm not leaving! I'm doing fine! I'll be like new in a few days, so there's no point leaving at all. I've been dealing with this for years, ”Sally refused.
What Sally was worried about was how much the treatment cost in River City.
His family was not wealthy, as Yousef was the only working adult and the sole breadwinner
His children are currently studying at university and high school, while even Jonathan's school fees are raised with the help of Jonathan's aunt, Diana.
There is little or no savings in the home, and using limited funds for its maintenance will only make the financial situation at home more precarious.
