"Mom, I’m begging you.Don’t be angry with them, okay?" Alyssa pleaded.

Her bags, dresses, and cosmetics depended on their family shares.

Howard said with a smile, "Gladys, let’s let bygones be bygones.Dad is being very generous this time,giving twenty percent of the shares at once!"

The shares slightly tempted Gladys.

Twenty percent of shares was a lot of money.

When the old man passed away, it was worth hundreds of millions in assets.

"My useless husband, Benjamin, would never be able to make that much money even if he worked hiswhole life.’ However, she wanted to cry just thinking back on the treatment and suffering she hadendured and Benjamin’s position in the Callahans.She recalled how the Callahans took the credit fromJames and even insulted their family yesterday.She remembered how Lex expelled them from theCallahans in the morning.It made her furious.

Since they had already decided not to return, they would keep it that way.

They would just be ridiculed if they were to return there.

Glayds was determined in her decision.

She did not want money, and if they were going to be poor, so be it! At least they were free and did nothave to live pleasing other people.

"Go away," she said firmly and pointed to the door.

James lowered his head and continued eating beside her.

He never expected Glayds to turn down 20% of the Callahans’ family shares.

This was Gladys, who loved money and insisted that Thea divorce him for a richer son-in-law.

The same one who knelt down in front of Belinda at the Gourmand entrance.

"Auntie! Why can’t you appreciate what’s given?"

Tommy was enraged.

His grandfather came to visit them in person but was turned away.

Now, his father was here to persuade them, and still, they rejected him.

Tommy was already displeased that Lex gave them 20% of the family shares.

On top of that, Gladys’ attitude toward them made him increasingly upset.

"Grandpa isn’t begging you to come back to the Callahans.It’s Thea he wants! She hasn’t said anythingyet, so who are you to reject us?"

"Thea is my daughter! I have the final say on whether she goes or stays! Now, are you going to get outor not?!"

Gladys shouted, She stood up, took out a broom, and chased Howard’s family out the door with a loudbang, she slammed the door shut Outside the door.

"Dad, did you see that? What kind of attitude is that? "Grandpa is already giving them twenty percent ofthe shares.

What else do they want? Is it too little for them? They’re being so greedy."

Tommy and Mandy cursed angrily.

"That’s enough.Let’s go back first,"

Howard said calmly.

Inside the house.

Gladys was feeling a little regret after she had chased them away.

The Callahans’ 20% shares were worth 100 million. https://novelebook.com "Mom, what’s the matterwith you?"

"Mom, it’s not that I want to complain but think about it.You’ve suffered so much in the Callahans overthe years and endured so much pain.Our family deserves those shares! How could you refuse it? Evenif you’re not thinking about yourself, at least think about my future!" David and Alyssa grumbled.

"Alright, stop complaining about mom.Grandpa and Uncle have always looked down on ourparents.Plus, I’ve only always embarrassed Mom and Dad.Mom finally managed to get back at themfor once, so I agree with mom’s approach," said Thea.

Gladys glanced at Thea and said, "Thea’s right.Instead of going back to being insulted and poorlytreated, I rather we prove ourselves with our own strength! Aren’t they having a grand birthday party?We’ll hold a wedding at the House of Royals and make that biased old man mad!"

"Mom, don’t worry! I won’t ever make you embarrassed again in the future!" Thea vowed.

James said with a smile, "Mom, I know you want a better life for the family and want to return, but youcan’t let go of your pride.You don’t have to worry.The Callahans are scared that the Celestial Group will

terminate the contract with Eternality, so they’ll definitely come back for Thea.As long as you firmlystand your ground, you’ll surely be able to get more from them."

Gladys still felt it was a missed opportunity and asked curiously, "I’ve shown them such attitude.Willthey really come back again? Should I accept or refuse them if they come again?"

"You call the shots.You decide whether to agree or to refuse," James replied with a smile.

"Mom, you have to accept if they come again! I’m begging you!"

David knelt on the ground with a thurn "You incompetents.Look at James.Although he is poor, he hasintegrity.Look at yourselves, throwing your dignity out the window just for a little bit of money!"

"Didn’t you do the same in the past?"

David stood up and muttered "What did you say? I dare you to say it again!"

Gladys stood up, and her voice raised to 80 decibels She tugged David’s ear and said furiously, "You’regrowing bolder and bolder, aren’t you?"

"Mom, calm down.David is also just thinking of everyone.What is our family going to eat without theCallahans?" Alyssa said promptly.

"We aren’t going back even if we starve! Instead, why don’t you all replace a job if you’ve got workinghands and legs? I don’t believe we’ll die from starvation without them!"

Gladys scolded them and was firm in her decision.
