Clara Brown looked at her daughter's small face and said, "You could just sneakily ask your father-in-law. He's a grown man; he won't go babbling to your mother-in-law and grandmother about it."
"Mom..." Mia Garcia dragged out the end of her word, "You can hide this for a while, but not forever. When my mother-in-law and grandmother find out, have you thought about how hard my life will be?"
Clara couldn't help but feel a tightness in her heart.
"Mia, I see that your father-in-law is quite nice to you, so I thought you could ask him. Besides, when I make money from my investment, I'll naturally give you half. And when I'm gone, all that's left will be yours."
Clara Brown was now completely consumed by money. Besides her rental income, she had no other source of income, and the rents were insufficient to maintain her wealthy lady lifestyle.
"Mom, those are small amounts. Once I give birth to a son, I'll buy you another property, okay?" Mia said discontentedly.
