    Kathryn added, “Dad, if you still think $40,000 isn’t enough, you can wait until you recover and get a


    job as a security guard or cleaner to make a few thousand dors a month.”


    Holden was stunned. He was in his seventies and had never worked a day in his life.


    After a moment, he responded, “I’m over seventy, and you expect me to work? Whatpany


    would hire a security guard in his seventies?”


    Kathryn’s tone was cold. “Since you know you can’t earn money, stopining about what your


    children provide. I’m the daughter you dislike, yet I’m giving you $10,000 a month for living


    expenses, which is more than generous. If you keepining, I’ll reduce it to $5,000. If that’s not


    enough, ask your son or sue the daughter you adore to fight for her estate.” “Yes… $10,000 is fine,”


    Holden conceded. “Just remember to send it on time. Your brothers all have families and children to


    support. Life will be hard for them in the future, unlike you, who livefortably without that


    burden.


    You’re the one set to inherit most of your mother’s estate. Kathryn, I admit, I don’t like you, but


    you’re still my child. Blood ties can’t be broken, and your brothers are connected to you no matter


    what. When you inherit, consider sharing some of it with them.


    “They have children who need school fees, andter, those children will need homes, cars, and


    wedding expenses. It’s costly, and your brothers aren’t good with business—they tend to lose


    money. In the future, they might only have rental ie to survive, and making just tens of


    thousands a month will be tough.”


    Kathryn’s expression hardened. “Other people manage to support their families and pay mortgages


    and car loans on tens of thousands a month. My brothers make that much or even more in rental


    ie and still im it’s hard to live. How does that make sense?


    “They want to live like Mom did, spending recklessly and relying on her to bail them out. But those


    days are over. Mom may have spoiled them, but they never learned to stand on their own. Parents


    can’t be around forever. They took kickbacks and embezzled from thepany—I haven’t even


    asked them to pay that money back. I’ve let it go because we’re family. What more do they want?”


    “My eldest brother’s assets total over $88.6 million. My second brother’s real estate and other


    holdings are worth over $50 million. My third brother and his wife run multiple shops and have over


    $70 million in assets. If they each inherit just 2% of Mom’s estate, they’ll be close to $100 million.


    And they still say they’re struggling? What would ordinary people think of that?” Holden was


    shocked that Kathryn knew so much about her brothers’ finances. After a pause, he murmured,


    “They have fixed assets, but they might not even have $10 million in liquid cash.”


    Kathryn countered, “Dad, didn’t I suggest they move back home? They should sell their city


    properties and businesses, cash out, and settle down. With their current assets, they’d be wealthy


    back home.” C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
