In the midst of their conversation, Wilfrid pulled out a card from his pocket and handed it to Maggie. “There are several thousand dollars on this card. It should be enough to cover your medical expenses and also suffice for your living costs for a while.” 

When Maggie saw the card, her eyes lit up, but then she felt puzzled.  Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She quickly lifted her head and asked him, “Where did the money in your card come from?” 

Wilfrid’s reaction was quite calm as he spoke the truth. “This is the money I’ve earned from working at the coffee shop near school. It’s not ill-gotten wealth, so you don’t have to worry. Feel free to spend it. From now on, every two months, I’ll also send some money home. It should be enough to cover your living expenses.” 

Upon hearing that, Maggie immediately became angry. “How did you end up working at a coffee shop? Aren’t you supposed to be in school? Who allowed you to make such a big decision on your own? Why didn’t you discuss it with us at home? Your father and I don’t approve of this at all. You must go there and quit immediately! It’s absurd to neglect your studies and go out to work!” 

Nigel also roared at him in anger. “Why are you working at such a young age instead of focusing on your studies? At your age, you should be diligently studying in school. We are counting on you to excel in your college entrance exams. There’s no need for you to work. Quit your job immediately. If I find out you’re still there, washing dishes and serving water, I may break your legs!” 

Wilfrid’s gaze was indifferent, shifting from his father to his mother, his eyes filled with determination. “Mom, Dad, I’ve turned eighteen this year. I’m capable of living and working independently. I don’t need anyone to guide me in whatever I do, and I consider my own decisions. I came to the decision to work after careful consideration. As for my studies, you don’t have to worry. I can handle it myself. So far, there are no signs of my academic performance declining. I’ve always been at the top of my class, and you can rest assured about that. I know our family’s condition isn’t so bad that I need to work. However, I want to do this. From now on, every penny I spend will be earned by my own hands and feet, through legitimate labor, not through the charity of others.” 

“Are you suggesting that we are giving you charity?” 

“If you ask my sister for money to fund my education, to me, that’s charity. I absolutely refuse to use that money, so stop bothering her. This is the last time I’m telling you this. If I find out you’ve troubled her again, then…” 

Before he could finish his sentence, Maggie and Nigel exchanged a glance, understanding his intentions. 

Nigel was instantly infuriated, raising his voice to yell at his son. “What? Do you want to sever ties with us? To think you would abandon your own parents for a stranger!” 

“That’s not what I meant.” Wilfrid frowned. 

“I don’t care what you mean. Right now, you’re threatening us. Wilfrid, let me tell you, stop always siding with your sister. Even if you continue to do so, she won’t remember you, let alone consider you important. Go to school now and behave yourself!” 

Seeing that he couldn’t get through to them, Wilfrid suddenly didn’t want to say anything at all. 

He gently reminded his father to eat well, then left the hospital room. 

Just as he had barely stepped out of the ward, Maggie, in a huff, pressed the bell, summoning the nurse 

over. 

When Wilfrid was leaving, he crossed paths with a nurse who was rushing over. 

The nurse recognized him as the son of Nigel and Maggie, casting him a look of utter helplessness. 

By the time the nurse rushed into the room, Maggie gave her an impatient glare. “Why are the medical staff so slow? I’ve been calling you for ages, and only now have you come over! My husband and I have been waiting forever!” 

The nurse took a deep breath, maintaining her professional composure without showing any signs of anger. She politely asked them what they needed. 

Maggie was quite blunt, saying, “I want you to perform every possible test your hospital can do on my husband. Also, use the best medicine on him! If there are any imported, expensive ones, just prescribe them. We’re not short of money. We can afford it!” 

The nurse furrowed her brows, advising, “Not all tests are necessary for this patient. He simply has acute gastroenteritis. After receiving the IV drip, he will recover and can be discharged. There’s no need for these tests. Moreover, some health examination procedures can actually harm the body. Our recommendation is to avoid them if possible.” 

Both Maggie and Nigel insisted on going ahead with it, stating that someone else would cover the 

costs. 

In the end, the nurse had no choice but to write them a prescription and schedule an appointment. 

Upon reaching the nurse’s station, a junior nurse asked her what happened. “Why were you gone for so long? What were you asked to do?”
