Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 238 Give Me Five Hundred Thousand, I Want a Divorce!
However, she only felt frustrated for a moment before quickly regaining her composure. The most important thing right now was the matter concerning her uncle's family.
Besides, her relationship with Raymond was indeed just a normal employer-employee relationship, and she hadn't said anything wrong.
When she returned to her uncle's house, Brian and Erin were still sitting inside, sighing and feeling down. Megan, on the other hand, had come back at this time and when she heard that Jacob was going to jail, she immediately started scolding.
"I really don't know what sins I've committed to end up with such a pathetic man. I can't continue living like this! Give me five hundred thousand, I want a divorce!"
With her hands on her hips, Megan, who had always been arrogant in front of the couple, now wanted nothing more than to poke their faces with her fingers.
"He's pathetic, and she's pathetic too. They even try to imitate others by fighting, it's ridiculous. Who would want to be with such a man? Give us the money and let's get a divorce!"
Over the years, Erin and Brian had basically given Megan all the money they earned. During the years Jacob had run away from home, the couple didn't have much money on them, but as soon as they got some, they would give it to her. While Megan spent money lavishly, she also looked down on Erin's low-paying job.
At this moment, Erin, feeling in the wrong, couldn't help but plead, "Megan, maybe Jacob doesn't have to go to jail. We can compensate with money. Isn't this house going to be demolished soon? We'll have money then." Megan sneered, "How long are we going to keep compensating like this? I've had enough!"
Selena, who was listening to this conversation at the doorway, actually agreed with Megan's words for a moment.
Earlier, her uncle had just patched up the hole Jacob had made, and there were over a million dollars involved. But now, with another incident like this, there was no need to continue enduring the troubles that came with being with such a man. "Uncle, Aunt."
She called out, and Brian and Erin immediately looked over and walked closer.
"Selena, how is it? Is that boss willing to help us?"
"Cousin doesn't have to go to jail, but we still have to compensate with money."
Brian let out a sigh of relief, trembling as he took out a cigarette.
"Not going to jail is good, not going to jail is good."
Meanwhile, Megan, who saw Selena walking in, rolled her eyes.
"You two old farts, no matter what you say this time, I will definitely get a divorce. Give me five hundred thousand!"
Brian and Erin felt extremely embarrassed, especially when they kept making a fool of themselves in front of Selena. Erin's eyes welled up with tears instantly.
"Megan, you see it too, Selena doesn't have to go to jail..."
"Not going to jail just means he's useless! I'd rather marry a dog than be with this kind of man!" Megan grumbled and started smashing things inside the house.
"Give me the five hundred thousand now!"
Erin and Brian didn't dare to stop her, but Selena stepped forward and grabbed Megan's hand. "Have you caused enough trouble?"
Megan was taken aback and was about to slap Selena, but Selena caught her wrist in time. "I'm not your uncle and aunt.

"No need to accommodate you. If you dare to slap me in the face, I will slap you ten times, believe it or not?" Megan gritted her teeth in anger. "Yes, yes, yes, city people can naturally not endure grievances. Is this the way to treat elders? At least I am your sister-in-law."
Selena shrugged off Megan's hand, ignoring her and turning to Brian.
"Uncle, what she said is right. Let's just get divorced. Jacob has caused enough trouble over the years." Although Megan is not that great either, Jacob is obviously worse.
Brian didn't agree. Both he and Erin were aware that Jacob's reputation had long been tarnished, and on top of that, the rumors about them were rampant due to the issues with the house Brian had caused. If he divorced Megan, he would definitely not be able to replace another bride in the future.
"Megan, once this house is demolished, we will give you all the money. As long as you can stay, and if you have a child, we will help take care of them."
A glimmer of light flashed in Megan's eyes. This house should fetch a good sum of money when it is demolished, and after deducting the expenses for Jacob, there would still be a substantial amount left. Seeing her hesitation, Erin quickly spoke up.
"After your dad retires from work, he will receive a pension of three thousand every month. We will give it all to you. Megan, you should hurry up and have a child."
Selena noticed the couple's gesture and Megan's wavering, and a smirk appeared on her lips.
Sure enough, she had caused unnecessary trouble by asking for the divorce.
"Mom, Dad, you promised this, right? All the money from the demolition and the retirement pension are going to me."
Brian and Erin breathed a sigh of relief. After expressing their gratitude and saying some kind words to Megan, they turned to Selena.
"Selena, thanks for your help with this matter. Is there any specific amount mentioned for the compensation?"
