Chapter 238 I Want a Divorce

Chapter 238 I Want a Divorce

However, Penny's annoyance only lasted for a moment before she quickly regained her composure. The most important thing now was still about her uncle's family.

Besides, her relationship with Orlando was indeed just an ordinary employment one, and she hadn't said anything wrong.

When she returned to her uncle's house, Philip and Haley were still sitting inside, sighing in despair. Susan had returned by this time. Upon hearing that Noah was going to prison, she immediately started cursing.

"I don't know what sin I've committed. How come I marry such a pathetic man? I can't go on like this anymore! Give me 100 thousand dollars. I want a divorce!"

With her hands on her hips, Susan, who had always been haughty to her parents-in-law, almost pointed at their noses and scolded them.

"You're a coward, and your son is a coward too. He even dared to fight. It's ridiculous. Who would want to live with such a man? Give me the money and I'll divorce!"

Over the years, Haley and Philip had given most of the money that they had earned to Susan. During the years when Noah ran away from home, they didn't have much money on them, and whatever money they made, they immediately gave it to Susan.

Susan was a big spender and also belittled Haley's job.

Haley, feeling guilty, couldn't help but say humbly, "Susan, maybe Noah doesn't have to go to jail. We can compensate the injured man with money. Isn't our house going to be demolished soon? We'll have money by then."

Susan sneered. "How long do we have to keep compensating like this? I've had enough!"

Penny heard this at the door and actually thought Susan was right for a moment.

Her uncle had just paid off the debt of more than 150 thousand dollars that Noah owed, but now Noah got in trouble another. It was indeed unnecessary to continue living with such a man. "Uncle, Aunt," she called.

Philip and Haley immediately looked over and approached quickly.

"Penny, how's it going? Is that boss willing to help us?"

"Noah doesn't have to go to jail, but we still have to compensate him with money."

Philip breathed a sigh of relief and nervously took out a cigarette.

"It's good that he doesn't have to go to jail. That's great."

Susan rolled her eyes when she saw Penny walking in.

"You two old bastards, whatever you do, I'll divorce him! Give me 100 thousand dollars!"

Philip and Haley felt extremely embarrassed, especially because they were making such a fool of themselves in front of Penny over and over.

Haley's eyes instantly turned red.

"Susan, you heard it too. Noah doesn't have to go to jail..."

"Anyway, he's good-for-nothing! I couldn't go on living with such a man even if I had to marry a dog."

Susan cursed as she threw things in the house.

"Hurry up and give me 100 thousand dollars!"

Haley and Philip didn't dare to stop her. Penny stepped forward and grabbed Susan's hand.

"Enough."

Susan was taken aback and raised her hand to slap Penny, but Penny quickly held onto her wrist.

"I'm not your parents-in-law. I won't indulge you. If you dare to slap me, I'll give you ten slaps in return, believe it or not?"

Susan gritted her teeth in anger. "Yes, yes, you're an urbanite and can't tolerate any grievances. Is this how you treat your elders? I'm your sister-in-law, after all."

Penny let go of her hand and ignored her, instead looking at Philip.

"Uncle, she's right. Let them get a divorce. Noah has caused enough trouble over the years."

Although Susan wasn't good, Noah was clearly worse.

Philip didn't agree. Both he and Haley knew that Noah's reputation had long been tarnished. In addition, Philip had provoked his neighbors because of the houses. The neighbors were all gossiping about them. If Noah divorced Susan, he'd definitely never find another wife.

"Susan, once this house is demolished, we'll give you all the money as long as you stay. If you have a child, we'll help take care of him."

A glimmer of light flashed in Susan's eyes. A significant amount of compensation should be given to them for the demolition of this house. After deducting the expenses for Noah, there should still be a substantial amount left.

Seeing her wavering, Haley quickly tried to persuade her too.

"After your dad retires from his job, he'll receive a monthly pension of 600 dollars. We'll give it all to you. We won't keep any of this money. Susan, you can have a child now if you want."

Penny saw this scene, and a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.

Sure enough, it was her fault that she was officious.

"Dad, Mom, this is your promise. Give me all the money from the demolition and the pension."

Philip and Haley both breathed a sigh of relief. After expressing their gratitude to Susan, they turned to look at Penny.

"Penny, you've really helped us a lot this time. As for the compensation, do they have any specific amount in mind?"
