Chapter 120: 0120 You won’t even give your brother half a million, you’re so ruthless_1 Chapter 120: 0120 You won’t even give your brother half a million, you’re so ruthless_1 Ellen Young had gone to sleep in Imperial City that night.
The news about her live broadcast had spread, and she ended up receiving quite a few phone calls that night.
The ones who could reach her on her private phone were very close colleagues, so Ellen didn’t mind telling them that she was only doing a program with Lucy Wood by herself, which could also be seen as killing ti out of boredom.
As for her claim of currently farming in the countryside, everyone expressed disbelief, all thinking that she might be engaged in so mysterious agricultural research.
Although everyone was sowhat surprised by her abrupt career shift from information technology to agriculture, knowing her diverse educational background, they also expressed understanding.
Ellen: …
Well, that’s one way to put it, she had always been dedicated to researching how to season food to make it tastier.
Of course, she wasn’t really idle either.
The next morning, around ten o’clock, Lucy Wood called her.
But there was a strange calm in Lucy’s voice on the phone, “Ellen, Mr. Wood wants you to co ho to see him.”
It was clear who she ant by Mr. Wood.
Over the phone, the angry shouts of Daniel Wood could also be heard: “I am her father, what Mr. Wood?”
Upon hearing this, Ellen knew the call might not have been Lucy’s idea to make and promptly refused: “No.”
Just two simple words, without needing any reason.
Lucy Wood: “Okay, I got it.”
Ellen: “Mhm.”
Lucy hung up the phone, yet her gaze turned towards her father in the living room: “You heard her, she said no.”
Daniel Wood glared at her, looking furious: “So she says no and that’s it? Is it because you’ve been whispering things to her behind our backs? She doesn’t recognize her own parents anymore, how unfilial and unrighteous!”
Lucy Wood could barely suppress a laugh.
It’s just that in the past, she didn’t feel the Wood Family was shaless, just a bit neglectful of her.
Now, with Ellen’s situation added to the mix, she realized that her parents were even more shaless than she had imagined.
“What could I possibly say to her?”
Lucy said with a mocking laugh: “She’s 24, doesn’t she have the ability to make her own judgnts?”
“What do you an by that?”
Daniel Wood pointed at Lucy, his eyes red with anger, looking quite intimidating: “Just look at her, what is she like? What place does the Wood Family hold, that she feels she can choose whether to acknowledge it or not? It should be an honor for her to co back to the Wood Family, and yet she refuses! She got on that program only because she rode on your coattails, didn’t she? Tell , the internet says you gave her half your fee, is that true?”
Lucy blinked her eyes: “Of course it’s true. Why else would she agree to do the program with ? Her own parents don’t want her, and as her sister, I haven’t seen her for more than 20 years. To her, I’m a stranger.”
“You… you…”
Daniel Wood seed to be rendered almost speechless with anger. Edward Wood, who had been sitting beside, suddenly stood up, shouting: “Big sister, are you serious? You gave her half of your fee? You wouldn’t even give the 500,000 I asked for. Are you even my sister? Now that you’ve acknowledged her, am I no longer your brother? Why do you still have to treat us differently?”
“You didn’t give him 500,000?”
Everyone in the room turned their attention to the conversation, and Grandma Carol Sean looked at Lucy with annoyance: “Edward has been your dear brother for over a decade, yet you’re willing to give half of your earnings to soone else but won’t even part with 500,000 for your brother. How cruel-hearted you are!”
Lucy Wood: “…”
She really wanted to roll her eyes right then and there.
