Power of Money

Chapter 178

Why were they at the house?

Jason was stunned for a moment before he stepped in.

"Where are you going directly?"

Before he could enter the house, he heard Sarah asking.

"Going to the airport." Jason sat next to Michael just and looked at him. What did they mean?

But before Michael could say anything, Sarah sneered and said, "Alright, my mother is now locked up in the police station and we can't even see her. And you're going to take a plane? Are you going out to play? It looks like you've made quite a bit of money. Let's hear how much you've earned, so we can satisfy our curiosity."

Jason could tell what she meant.

She just wanted to say he had cheated her mother of medical expenses of 790,000 yuan under St. De Hospital's name?

But back then when they proudly insisted that he open a backdoor connection for them into St. De Hospital, and now that they couldn't afford the medical expenses, they just asked for it!

However, looking at his father's expression, Jason frowned and said, "Who told you that we are going on a trip? My parents are going home this afternoon. They will take the plane at three o'clock. After lunch, I will send them to the airport."

What he meant was that they had something to do later, and they were free to leave once they had said what they wanted to.

"Going? Where do you think your family is going? You're not allowed to go anywhere!"

To Jason's surprise, even though he had made it clear, Jim slapped the table, pointed at Michael's family, and said coldly, "Before Hannah's matter is solved, your family is not allowed to leave Nandu. No one is allowed to leave!"

"Why?"

Jason frowned and asked, but his hand was grabbed by Michael.

Michael looked at Jim with hesitation and explained, "Didn't I make it clear before? Our family never forced my second sister to go to St. De Hospital. That day, you came here and forced Jason to introduce her into the hospital through his acquaintance. Why is it our fault in the end?"

Michael felt that he had already made it clear when he was in the ward that day.

But he didn't expect that Jim and his daughter would still come here today and ask their family to take responsibility.

"You're not involved? If it has nothing to do with your family, how would Hannah get into St. De Hospital? Does that hospital let anyone in randomly? Besides, didn't Jason have friends hospitalized here? Did he not know the hospital fees as well? Why didn't he tell us in advance? Did you do it on purpose or did you have other motives? Do you think I'm not aware of what's going on?" Jim asked.

"But what second aunt said at the beginning was that her friend went to St. De Hospital previously, that's why she wanted to do her surgery there as well. Why didn't you check yourselves before you went there, instead of blaming it on me now?" Jason said in confusion.

"Is this a good enough reason?" Jim hit the table and shouted angrily.

"That's the reason." Jason looked at the time and saw that it was almost noon.

They hadn't even cooked. Even if there was a private car to the airport, it would still take an hour's journey. The flight was at three o'clock, they didn't have much time.

Jason simply stood up and said lightly, "She has already stayed in the VIP ward and got aftercare as well. She has also requested for the most expensive operation team. The operation has been completed. All the papers have your signatures. All these actions were done by you. You're already so old but you can't even take responsibility for your actions. Can't you even do such a simple thing?"

"Who do you think you're talking to?"

Jim couldn't help but stand up from the sofa, his face flushed with anger after Jason mentioned the issues from the hospital.

"I am your uncle, your elder. No matter what I have done, how can you talk to your elder like this!"

"That's right, Jason, you're out of line. What did my parents do that allowed you to point fingers at them? You're a loser who doesn't even have a job. You don't have the right to judge our family's affairs. Mind yourself first. After all the money your parents borrowed to send you to college, in the end, you can't even find a job. I don't think you have the face to go back to the countryside. You're a college student. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?"

Seeing her father being humiliated, Sarah stood up, unwilling to show that they were weak. She pointed at Jason and cursed with great superiority.

Jason glanced at her and said lightly, "So, your family is so excellent but you can't afford these medical expenses, so instead you approach us villagers?"

"My mother was harmed by you villagers. Now that there is something wrong, of course, you have to take responsibility!"

Sarah sneered and said, "Besides, didn't your father promise us to fork out 400,000 yuan? Today, I came here to take that money. Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and take out the money. We will leave as soon as we get the money. Don't waste everyone's time."

Michael went to the ward previously and had offered to pay 400,000 yuan for them, Jason had heard it from Lusa as well.

But the money didn't matter.

It was only 400,000 yuan.

That afternoon, Jason already spent more than one million yuan in the LV store. Jason didn't care about the money now, but it also depended who he spent it on.

"400,000 yuan..." Jason laughed and said, "My father really has 400,000 yuan, but why should we give it to you? To put it nicely, how can your family have the face to come to our house to ask for money? Have you forgotten what happened four years ago?"

Four years ago?

Jim and Sarah looked at each other, as if they didn't understand what Jason was talking about.

However, Michael, as well as Ada, looked embarrassed all of a sudden.

"What happened four years ago? It has been so long, who would remember what happened? What's more, even if there were some minor conflicts, are you still so narrowminded after so many years? Your aunt and your father are siblings, they grew up together. Do we have to be so calculating?" Jim said, face dark.

"Yes, you were still in your hometown in the countryside four years ago. What contact would we have with you? Don't make it up like it's something true." Sarah also rolled her eyes and said.

Jim's family really looked down on Jason and his family as countryside people. They had not contacted them for so many years. Even during holidays, Michael, the eldest son, took the initiative to pay their respects to Hannah's family, but they hung up the phone after a few words. It was rare to see them face to face. They were eager to cut ties with the poor relatives.

"Jason..." Ada tugged at the corner of Jason's clothes, as if she wanted to tell him not to bring up the past.

More importantly, she really didn't want to mention this matter again.

"Yes, Jason, what happened in the past has passed. Today, they're talking about your second aunt, so let's just..." Michael was a little hesitant.

"It has passed?" Jason shook his head and said to his parents, "It may have passed for all of you, but I'll never get over it!"

After that, Jason looked at Jim and said with a smile, "Second Uncle, if I remember correctly, you were still a teacher in school four years ago. You didn't enter any district office, did you?"

"How did you know?" Jim frowned.

He was indeed a teacher before, just like Hannah. Even now, he was still a teacher, but just temporarily transferred to the government office to be a worker. He was still getting his salary from the school.

"Of course I know. At that time, it was you who advised my parents not to let me continue studying. You said that someone like me who plagiarised my way to get into college, it would be impossible

for me to find a good job even with the certificate. I wouldn't do well and I could only stay home to live off my parents, am I right?" Jason said with a sneer.

"Am I right?" Jim laughed and said, "You studied in a high school in the countryside. How can you get into a big school like Nandu University? And your academic performance is just ordinary. You can deceive others, but I have been a teacher for so many years. Can you deceive me?"

"Yes, you're right. I'm just a country boy. How could I get into a college with my ability? And into a better college than a child from a teacher's family?"

Jason looked at Jim and his tone grew colder.

"At that time, after I received the university admission notice, my father immediately thought of calling to deliver good news to you and my second aunt. But what about you? What did you say on the phone?"

"You couldn't wait to accuse me of plagiarising, cheating, saying that I didn't have a future and that I was living off my parents. You even forced my father not to let me go to college. You wanted him to put me in a technological university, then go work in the South. Because that's the life that you people thought I should have. After all, your daughter scored better than me. If I went to a better university than her, your family would have one less advantage. How would you continue criticising my family, and continue showing off in the future?"
