I punched him lightly. "You wish."

Larry said, "Yasmin, I want to give you a grand wedding."

"Oh my goodness, is this happiness?" I wondered.

Two days later, I received a call from Jack. "Yasmin, come to the hospital immediately. Dad was so angry with you that he had a heart attack."

This was their usual tactic. Every time I did something a little bit not to their liking, they would threaten me with fainting, hospitalization, and so on. But I wasn't going to fall for it anymore.

However, I still went to the hospital to see what else they would come up with.

The door of the ward was ajar. I saw through the crack that my father was lying on the bed. His face was ruddy and he was taking big bites of an apple. And he didn't look like a patient at all.

Jack was stirring up trouble and said, "Dad, Yasmin will be here soon, ask her to pay for Liam and Luna's interest classes, it costs twenty thousand dollars."

My mother said, "The money is not a problem at all. The important thing is that your sister is going to get married! Which means from now on, her house and salon will belong to someone else!"

My dad said, "No, we can't let her get married."

My mother said, "It must be that Turner guy who bewitched her. Yasmin used to be so obedient."

My father got excited and said, "If she dares to marry him, I will kill myself in front of her!"

Jack couldn't hide the joy in his eyes. "Why would she get married? It would be great if our whole family could be together. When she gets old, Liam and Luna will take care of her."

"Haha, thank you so much." I thought.

In my previous life, I treated Liam and Luna as my own children, but these two ungrateful little bastards kept saying, "We have our own parents, how can we have the energy to care about Aunt Yasmin?"

Yes, I was just an aunt, how could I expect them to take care of me? So I would not put any hope on them or give anything more to them.

Since I was already here, I went into the ward.

When my father saw me, he snorted, turned his face away and ignored me.

My mom sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Yasmin, look at you. You've made your dad so angry. We worked so hard to raise you, how could you be so obsessed with a man?"

Jack coughed lightly to remind her.

My mom continued. "Forget it. Now hurry up and pay for Liam and Luna's interest classes, it's more than twenty thousand dollars. Hurry up and transfer thirty thousand dollars to your brother."

I took out my phone from my bag, Jack's face lit up with joy, and my parents exchanged proud glances.

I calmly found a picture from my phone album and showed it to Jack. "This is the new car I've fallen in love with, it's three hundred thousand dollars. I've already paid for it and will pick it up next week. So I don't have any money now!"

Jack's face turned purple with anger. "Yasmin, why did you buy such an expensive car? What will we do? The expenses for a whole family are so high!"

I put away my phone and said, "You guys should take care of your own expenses. You are already over thirty years old. You need to know how to support a family."

My father completely forgot that he was pretending to be sick. He sat up suddenly and pointed at me. "You, you disobedient girl, so ungrateful."

I sneered. "Ungrateful? How much did you spend raising me? How much did I spend on you over these years? You can do the math yourself."

My father was so angry that he picked up the shoes under the bed and threw them at me. "You! Are you trying to piss me off to death?"

I dodged to the side, and my mother responded by howling, "What a sin! How could we have such an unfilial daughter!"

Lisa watched all this with cold eyes, she suddenly stood up, and yelled at Jack, "If you don't get her to pay for Liam and Luna's interest classes in the next two days, I will divorce you!"

After saying that, she slammed the door and left.

Jack put on a bitter face. "Yasmin, please don't be like this. If I get divorced, our family will be broken up. Can you really bear to see it?"

I thought, "I can't bear to see it? If I can't bear it, I will be controlled by them for the rest of my life just like in my last life."

I shook my head helplessly. "I really have no money."

Jack said, "Well, Dad is in the hospital now, you have to pay for hospitalization and nutrition."

I said, "Dad, I think you are very energetic, so don't waste money in the hospital. Just go home. Of course, if you want to stay, I have no objection. Just pay for the medical expenses yourself."

In the past few years, not only did I buy them a house, I was also very generous in giving them money, so they wouldn't be unable to afford medical expenses.

After saying that, I turned around and left. Behind me I heard my father's roar, my mother's howling, and Jack's cursing.

They were so terrible.

Larry and I decided to hold the wedding.

Of course, I didn't inform my family.

But they still came to make trouble!

Just when the emcee asked Larry, "Are you willing to marry Ms. Yasmin Quill?"

The door was suddenly pushed open, then my parents, Jack and Lisa rushed in.

My dad yelled at the emcee, "I don't agree!"

My mother rushed onto the stage, sat down on the ground, slapped her thigh and started crying. "I am so sinful, giving birth to such a shameless daughter. She didn't even ask for the engagement gift. And she only wants a man, not her parents."

I didn't expect them to come or disrupt the wedding. The emcee also panicked. The guests started to make a commotion and whispered, and it began to become chaotic.

But Larry was not in a hurry. He gave a glance to several strong young men to pick them up and said, "If you keep making trouble, I will call the police."

This time, calling the police didn't scare them.

Jack stiffened his neck and said, "Call the police then. How can you get married without your parents' consent? Let's see who dares to arrest us today."

Lisa was filming a video with her phone. "Look everyone, this woman didn't even ask for the engagement gift, and she insisted on marrying this man. A woman who doesn't listen to her parents will not end up well."

Did she think that I wasn't able to speak?

I took the emcee's microphone and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry for all this. Today is my wedding day, but I didn't invite my family to come because they've taken my money for dozens of years. I don't want to be their daughter or sister anymore!"

The room gradually quieted down after I said these.

I continued. "I am forty years old now. In order to give my parents and brother a good life, I bought them a house and let my brother get married and start a family. But apart from asking me for money, no one has ever cared about me!"

I raised my hand and wiped the tears from my eyes. "I'm forty years old and want to get married, but they want the engagement gift of eight hundred thousand dollars! It's obvious that they don't want me to get married, all they want from me is to become a money-making tool for them for the rest of my life!"

The guests began to whisper to each other and gave contemptuous glances at them.

Lisa had turned off the video long ago and was standing there with a red face.

My father was being dragged by someone, but he was still struggling to come up and hit me. "You damn girl, every daughter protects her parents, but you don't take our sides."

I said, "Did you hear that? My dad meant that having a daughter is to contribute to her family, and that a daughter shouldn't have her own life."

The guests all sighed for me.

I burst into tears. "Everyone, if being born as a daughter means being a tool, then I would rather not be born! I want to pursue my own happiness, am I wrong?"

My dad was still yelling, "Your brother is the heir of our family, you should think for him, otherwise why did we give birth to you!"

It caused uproar in the audience. Some people had already recorded videos, and their faces were clearly visible in the videos!

Larry took the microphone and said, "Everyone, should I give eight hundred thousand dollars to them?"

The audience answered in unison, "No!"

Larry added, "Then please bless us!"

Several young men dragged my parents, Jack and Lisa out, and the wedding went on!

On the same day, the wedding videos appeared on various platforms with the caption "Parents-in-law disrupted the wedding and demanded eight hundred thousand dollars for engagement gifts!"

The videos quickly became a hot topic, with a lot of curses coming from the comments.

My parents were exposed by netizens. Not only did they receive countless abusive phone calls every day, but they were also spat on when they took out the trash. Countless bloggers and public accounts wrote articles to discuss this thing, and the high price of eight hundred thousand dollars for the engagement gift became a topic on the entire network!

Words like "Evil parents forcing their daughter to support the brother" were thrown at them.

They suffered a brutal cyberbullying!

Larry and I stayed at home reading various comments happily every day.

All the words that I didn't say were said by netizens.

Soon, my mother suffered from depression. Lisa couldn't bear the pressure, so she divorced Jack, left her two children behind, and no one knew where she went.

In order to avoid any further connection with them, Larry and I decided to leave.

We quickly sold the profitable beauty salon, my own house and Larry's house at a low price. Larry applied to the company to return to their headquarters.

We left quietly and bought a house in the capital to settle down.

Two years later, one day, I was wearing a beautiful business suit and exquisite makeup, sitting in the beauty salon I newly opened in the capital, discussing business cooperation with several medical beauty institutions.

There was a knock on the door and the nanny walked in. "Ms. Quill, Kate needs to be fed."

I apologized to my partners and left the office.

In the small room next door, the little angel in the cradle was smiling at me. I picked her up, gave her a kiss, undressed myself and fed her.

Looking at her little mouth sucking eagerly, my heart was filled with infinite love.

It was the continuation of my life, my dear daughter. "I will do my best to give you happiness and let you live your own life." I thought.

Just after feeding, I received a call from Larry. "Honey, are you tired today? Take some rest, I love you."

I chuckled. "How many phone calls do you have to make in a day? You're so nagging."

Larry said, "Honey, you criticized me again."

I said, "You are already the vice president of the company. Can you stop always following around your wife and daughter? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Larry laughed. "Haha, a man who follows around his wife and daughter is a mature man."

I handed Kate to the nanny and returned to the office, and signed contracts with several agencies.

Business in the capital was much easier than in the small town. Larry and I had invested all our savings in this beauty salon. It was not only high-end, but also combines with body shaping, weight loss, alternative medicine etc. It was very popular among white-collar women and wealthy ladies.
