They also wanted to experience the envious gazes of others. When the two were about to speak, someone was one step ahead of them.
“Dave, you've arrived. Come sit.”
When Aunt Karen saw David enter, she immediately got up to give David her seat. Bobby might be embarrassed to do it, so he did it.
As long as he could get David's forgiveness, he could drive a luxury car like Diana, live in a luxurious villa, and have a job that could earn him a lot of money without much work.
He had dreamed of a life like this every day recently.
When Leslie sees Aunt Karen so active and polite, she hints at her wife with her eyes.
He asked her to learn from Karen. If he wanted to drive a luxury car and live in a luxurious villa, he couldn't be too passive. David did not speak or greet these people. Instead, he pulled Celia to the other side.
“Judy, let's go to the kitchen.” David told Judy.
Judy quickly stood up and said, “Sit down, I'll go help in the kitchen.”
David pulled Celia to sit down. There's not much he can say to Bobby and his family. Everything that had happened in the past was still clear in his memory.
If she had not escaped their clutches in time and stayed with Aunt Sally, it was hard to tell if she could still be alive now. He will never forget those dark times. Karen smiled awkwardly and sat back down.
“Dave, how are you? How's your study?” Aunt Lisa asked with a smile on her face.
“Dave, you've been working out there for a long time, you should come back and visit if you have time. We've cleaned your parents' house so you can come back and stay there anytime.” Karen said in a flattering tone.
David did not intend to pay attention to them, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. Although Celia did not know what was going on, she could feel David's mood swings. Therefore, he gripped David's hand tightly. No matter what the situation was, he chose to always trust David.
Alex was sitting on one side, but he didn't know what to say. When Diana asked Bobby and Leslie to come, she felt it was inappropriate and somewhat objected, but she could not say anything.
He sees David growing up and he knows what happened to David at Bobby's house. He had also been in the organization for most of his life, so he was a pretty good character appraiser.
David was the type of person who would repay someone's kindness to them tenfold, but he would also repay anyone who wronged him tenfold as well. If Bobby wasn't David's uncle, he'd be ten times worse.
Therefore, asking David to forgive them would be wishful thinking. It would be bad if they did not get the desired result but instead made themselves a mess.
Did the situation before him not develop in the direction he predicted?
He only hoped that David would not become estranged with their families, otherwise, their profits would not be able to cover the losses they would suffer. However, with David's character, he might not care about this trivial matter.
“Dave, in the end, we are still family. Even though we crossed the line a little in the past, I am still your uncle after all. We have the same blood in our veins. What can't be solved, right?” said Bobby.
It must be admitted that Bobby's statement has a certain level of logic. If David hadn't experienced hell during his years living with him, he might have been able to forgive Bobby.
If Leslie had said this, David might need to reconsider. After all, even though Leslie didn't help him, at least she didn't torture him. However, because Bobby said this, David was furious and he could not hold back the anger in his heart anymore.
“Uncle? Have you fulfilled your duties as an uncle? If it wasn't for Aunt Diana and Aunt Sally, I might be dead by now. I know what you're thinking. You saw that the lives of Aunt Diana and Aunt Sally changed for the better because of me so you wanted to curry favor with me and gain some benefits, didn't you? Let me tell you, Bobby, I just donated 200 million to Shu City High School yesterday. I'd rather donate money than give you a penny. You better give up now.”
As soon as David said that, everyone in the hall immediately took a sharp breath. It wasn't David's assertiveness that made everyone react that way, but rather because David actually said that he just donated 200 million to Shu City High School yesterday.
200 million!
Judging from the fact that David bought a luxury home worth hundreds of millions of dollars for Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana and also owned an eight-star hotel worth tens of billions of dollars, this is definitely not nonsense.
The eyes of Bobby and Leslie's family members sparkled. It would be amazing if this was for them. However, David donated it.
Quin was also very excited at this moment. After seeing the luxury car driven by his cousin-in-law and Uncle Alex, he would dream of showing up in a luxury car every day. If that happens, the pretty girls will be queuing up to get into his car. That feeling is amazing. However, if he wanted to obtain this, he would first need to establish a good relationship with David.
If he could own a car and a mansion like Aunt Diana's, David could even beat him up if he wanted to. He will not respond to David's curse or even blow.
“Dave, um..”
David interrupted Quin right after he had just managed to say a single word.
“Quin, don't call me that, it's inappropriate for you to call me that. I'm not going to share anything good with you because of things that happened when we were younger. We were kids back then. But you dared to hit my Aunt Sally recently and I will never forgive you for that.”
“... I didn't hit him! I accidentally pushed him!” Quin said gently to defend himself.
Even though David puts him in a tough spot, he will endure this for the sake of cars and mansions.
“Enough. It doesn't matter if you push or hit him, I don't want to hear from you anymore. From now on, I don't want anything to do with your family, so don't ever think of getting any benefit from me.” David said firmly.
He will not help the family. It is useless for anyone to ask for mercy. It was not that he was cruel, but everything that had happened in the past was still fresh in his memory. There were so many nights when he would be hungry and cold as the Bobby family enjoyed a sumptuous meal.
There was so much of Quin's fault, but he blamed David and then David was beaten until he was covered in a scar that didn't heal for half a month.
He was young at the time and did not understand the story in it. He realized what was happening when he was growing up. They only did this for the compensation of his 2 million parents. It would be better if he died. The 2 million compensation would then belong to Bobby's family.
In fact, if the Bobby family really treated him like their own son, they would have 20 billion by now, not just 2 million. Unfortunately, their vision was too close.
It was only 2 million, yet it was able to put aside their conscience.
Since they had done these things, they had to bear the consequences. If the apology works, why are the police there?
If it wasn't for the fact Uncle Bobby was still his family, David would have wanted them to feel the torment. He had been very kind to them for not torturing like they were torturing him back then. Now, can they ask for a profit? Keep dreaming!
Although Felicia did not speak, it did not mean that she did not want to be like Aunt Diana's family. Who doesn't want a luxury car and a luxury home? Who wouldn't want to earn millions a year without having to work hard? However, he knew it was unrealistic to ask David to forgive their family.
After all, what her parents did to David was already over the limit. Hence, he did not have much hope for this family.
Bobby opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he didn't.
At this moment, Diana came out.
“Dave, let the past go. Your parents are dead, and they're still your relatives after all. You cannot live in hatred. You've made something for yourself so you should try to forget this.” persuaded Aunt Diana.
Bobby and his family threw a grateful look at Diana.
“Aunt Diana, you don't have to beg for them anymore. I know their families are too kind and I won't go into detail about how they treated me before. If I was still a poor student, would they come and apologize to me? Of course not. Maybe they won't see me when I die. Is this what an uncle should do? Plus, I don't live in hatred. Instead, I am very grateful that they did not beat me to death or starve me to death, which is why they can still sit here safely and healthily
“uuhh... Dave.
Diana wanted to say something more, but David spoke first. “Aunt Diana, don't talk about this again, okay? You've been kind to me and I respect you, but when it comes to these people.I'm sorry, I can't treat them the same way I treat you.”.
David stopped talking. The light in Bobby's family's eyes dimmed instantly. Although they felt that they were indeed very cruel towards David before, they considered that blood was still thicker than water.
David was rich now so even if he would not treat them as well as the Diana family, he would at least give them some benefits.
Take Bobby and Diana as examples. The two brothers had a heated argument over David's matter years ago, but after Bobby came to apologize, Diana forgave him.
They thought that David might also be easy to behave, so they had been waiting for the opportunity to finally arrive to apologize.
At the same time, they also fantasize about the days when they could live in a luxury home and drive a luxury car. However, David slapped their faces today. The dream of owning a luxury home and a luxury car is dashed. The family found this a bit hard to accept.
Especially Quin. He had already told everyone that their family would soon be living in a mansion in River City and they could soon drive a multimillion-dollar luxury car. How could he face his friends now?
He will be mocked to death.
However, there was nothing he could do. The last time David was in his house, he was traumatized by David's violence.
Celia had held David's hand tightly and she could feel David's mood fluctuate violently. He had never seen David so angry before. This must be a family that left David with unforgettable and indelible pain and made David like this.
Celia shows some disgust when she sees Bobby's family, as if she can feel David's past suffering. Leslie's family saw what happened to Bobby and didn't dare say anything more.
However, they feel that their situation is different from Bobby's. After all, when David lived with Bobby, he was mistreated by Bobby's family. They just didn't help David, but they didn't directly harass David himself.
It's just that when David's mood is bad, they don't dare to speculate and try to seduce David as well. They will only speak when they have the opportunity to do so in the future.
When Diana saw how resolute David was, she sighed and did not speak to him anymore. He then walked into the kitchen after patting David on the shoulder. David also holds Celia's hand and follows Diana into the kitchen to help him. He didn't want to stay here and see the faces of those people.
David is fully involved in cooking. Although Celia comes from a wealthy family, she lived alone in Shu City when she was in her senior year, so she learned to cook as well. So, there was no problem when the two of them worked together.

A lot of life advice can be taken from almost any novel. Do not just be able to underestimate and say "Nonsense news, in the real world where there is such a thing?", but respond to the moral message² implied in the story. After all, making a novel is very difficult. I only edit a little, sometimes the head feels like breaking 🤣🤣🤣🤣
A little story, though,
I have an aunt from my late father. When my aunt was rich, she often took us for granted because we were poor.
After she fell into poverty due to her husband's divorce, my mother often gave her food and often helped in other things, although our circumstances were also difficult.
But the funny thing is, my aunt is not only ungrateful, but also defames my mother in front of family and people around.
Even if my mother gives food, sometimes she likes to say this "kok not delivered to the house anyway? My time is told to take it myself? What is your intention?"
He had just left our house angry because he was told to take food to our house. It was taken from my cousin's sister.
Funny thing about 🤣🤣
Basically, my aunt and mother are the same. Both have unique properties. And, my mother is not kapok-kapok even though often disappointed, and my aunt is not kapok-kapok make my mother disappointed.
Even though I once snapped and kicked him out of our house. But because he lived not far from our house, and only lived alone, so because he felt lonely he came back to our house after many months did not come.
If he did not live a day, I would have strictly forbidden him to come to our house. And my mother often said, "Every act has Karma. Even if we retaliate against the bad guys, Karma still exists!"
Finally I could just shut up and pretend that nothing had happened. Afraid also because 😅😅😅😅
"Blood is thicker than water. But heart wounds are hard to heal. It may be easy to forgive. But forgetting is a hard thing."
May you all be good and not crooked minded. Always respect each other, both humans, animals and plants. Because everything we do to whatever is in the world gets Karma.
What we harvest comes from what we grow.
It is impossible to plant a banana will bear mango fruit 🤔
