Chapter 641: Parting Sorrow (5)
"It’s not exactly a worry, just that I haven’t figured out how to tell mom and dad about it yet." In front of Millie Campbell, Daisy Willow didn’t hide much. They got along well ever since Millie married her Big Brother.
"Tell me about it first then." It was clear to Samuel Willow that Daisy had something on her mind, and he invited her in to cut fruit precisely to help her share her concerns.
"Elena and I might be going abroad. I just accepted a job taking care of an elderly person who doesn’t have much time left. I couldn’t refuse, so I agreed to do it. We just got the family back together, and now we’re about to be separated again. I’m worried that mom and dad might get all sorts of ideas." Daisy sighed at the thought. At the time, she had considered refusing, but for some reason, she just couldn’t say no.
"Is it the lawyer’s grandfather?"
"Mhm." Daisy didn’t hide it anymore. This matter would have to be discussed eventually, so it was better to talk about it sooner rather than later.
"That money you gave us before, it’s not from the Duncan family, is it?" Millie was actually a bit apprehensive about using Duncan family’s money. Since she married Samuel Willow, she considered herself a member of the Willow family, and with all those nasty things the old woman from the Duncan family had said, she naturally wouldn’t want to use their money.
So the apartment they lived in was eventually registered under Elena’s name. In the Willow family, only Elena could openly use the Duncan family’s money without feeling ashamed. This way, even if the Duncan family found out, the Willow family wouldn’t feel humiliated.
"No, it’s my first-year salary paid to me by Simon Carrington. Don’t worry about it." Daisy knew that her brother and sister-in-law didn’t like the Duncan family. It was true that birds of a feather flock together.
"You should tell mom and dad about this sooner rather than later." Millie brought out the fruit plate.
Daisy held another plate of fruit. Everyone sat around the living room, watching TV with the two youngsters, enjoying their favorite cartoons. Evelyn Willow chose Little Fairies, thinking it was Elena’s favorite show.
