Chapter 344
Joel said,
"Gavin has two sons who are older, while we have three kids. Our daughter is only eight, our son is just over two, and our baby is six months old. How could we fight them?
They’re just bullying us because we have more women and kids. After talking for so long, they only tossed us two houses. How outrageous!"Isla held their youngest son and looked resentful.
"When Gavin got married, the four elders gave all the family savings to him to buy a house. By the time we got married, there was nothing left.
Now they have eight houses and only give us two, treating us like beggars. It’s so unfair.
Maria, you have to get your adoptive parents to seek justice for us!"
Maria was clearly put off by Isla, who deliberately emphasized that Maria had been adopted by the Carter family.
Suppressing her distaste, Maria forced a concerned expression and said,
"Joel, even though my mom is still in the hospital, she felt it was unfair after hearing about your situation. She’s decided to give you that old house."
"Really?" Isla’s eyes widened in disbelief, sparkling with hope. "Is that really what your adoptive mother thinks? Can she actually stand up to her husband?"
"In our family, Mom’s the boss," Maria said with a smile. "Dad and my brothers always listen to her. However, there’s one issue."
