Wendy did not expect that the belt that she bought to give to Charlie had somewhat angered her grandmother again.

When she saw her grandmother's temper where she had to control everything and make decisions on everything, Wendy also got angry, and she blurted out, "Every single cent that I spend right now is all my own hard-earned money. It is my freedom to buy whatever I want! You have no right to interfere!" 3

"What?! I have no right to interfere?!" Lady Wilson had just been stifled by Charlie, and even though she had tried every means that she could to please him, Charlie had rejected her directly. So, she was already feeling very depressed. When she saw that Wendy also actually dared to talk back to her, she instantly became very angry and enraged.

Immediately after that, she stopped in her tracks and angrily rebuked, "Don't forget that I've always been the head of this family. I was the head of the family in the past, now, and also in the future! Our family is facing the most difficult time right now, and we have to spend every cent that we have on the important things! If you are being so extravagant and wasteful, you are simply disregarding and putting the life and death of our family at risk!" 4

Wendy felt aggrieved, and she said angrily, "You used to decide on everything in the past because you had to have control over everything in the family. However, everything in the family was also lost in your hands! Now that everything is already back to zero and since we are starting from scratch, why should you make the decision on my own hard-earned money?!" 3

Wendy became angrier and angrier, and she also raised her voice a little as she spoke up, "From now on, I will make the decisions on my own for my own affairs! As for the money that I earn, I will take out a portion of it to be used for your living expenses as well as my father and elder brother's rehabilitation costs. I can use every single remaining cent at my own discretion, and you have no right to interfere at all!" Lady Wilson was furious, and she ground her teeth as she rebuked, "You're really disobeying me now?! Are you going to learn from that heartless and unscrupulous Claire, and turn your back on me too?!" 3 Wendy's eyes were filled with tears as she said," There's nothing wrong with following in my cousin sister's example! Claire might be disobedient, but at the very least, she is living a much happier life as compared to me now!"

As she spoke, Wendy then said in a very firm and determined voice, "I've already said everything that I should say. If you are willing to accept it, I will give you a monthly living allowance in the future according to what I've said, and you do not need to care about what I do with the rest of my money. I have no right to control you either. However, if you are unwilling to accept it, I'll go out and rent a room tomorrow. Worse comes to worst, I can just sleep in the company, then. The general manager's office in the company is very large, and it would not be a problem for me to put a bed inside at all!" 2

When Lady Wilson saw Wendy's firm and decisive attitude, she suddenly panicked and blurted out, "Oh, Wendy! What are you saying? Our family of four has finally come this far after going through so many difficulties. We have already experienced and suffered through all kinds of hardships and challenges. So, how can our family break up just like that?"

Lady Wilson then quickly promised her, "Wendy, you can rest assured that I will not interfere in your personal decisions in the future. You can just continue working hard and making money outside, and you car leave the rest of the family matters to me!" 2

Wendy immediately said, "Okay! It's a deal, then!"

Lady Wilson hurriedly said, "Okay, okay. It's a deal!"

After saying that, Lady Wilson then smiled before she came forward and asked, "By the way, Wendy, how much are you going to give me for our living expenses every month? I'm already old, so I should be eating good food more often to replenish my body, right? Our food standard should be a little more no matter what it is. How about this, then? You can give me six thousand

dollars every month, and this will be

considered as your father, elder brother, and my living expenses. In addition, you can also give me an additional two thousand dollars to be used for your father and elder brother's rehabilitation costs. It will be a total of eight thousand dollars every month. What do you think?" 2

Wendy was naturally aware that the standard for living expenses at eight thousand dollars a month for three people was a little too high.

However, Wendy really could not be bothered to continue arguing with Lady Wilson. After all, as long a s Wendy could make Lady Wilson willingly give up on the idea of controlling her, this was already a huge victory. 2

As for the eight thousand dollars, although it was a little much, the company was making very good profits now. Wendy was already making an income of more than ten thousand dollars every month.

Moreover, if the company was

developing well, the profits would naturally be higher. In the future, after the company paid its taxes every quarter, Wendy would also be able to take a small percentage of the profit as her commission Based on this calculation, Wendy would be able to get at least three to four hundred thousand dollars a year or even more.

Therefore, it was actually not a big burden for Wendy to give Lady Wilson eight thousand dollars a month. 2

What's more, her father and elder brother should be able to fully recover in a month or two. At that time, they would be able to replace a job to help subsidize and make up for their family expenses. This would also greatly reduce her pressure and burden. 2

So, Wendy nodded and said, "Eight thousand dollars it is, then. However, you have to remember your promise not to interfere with my life and my freedom! In addition, when my father and elder brother can start working, I'll only give three thousand dollars té our family every month! If you do not agree, I'll just move out!
