Chapter 52 The Shameless Relatives

Camila, how did you come back alone?Haley Lambert, Gemma’s eldest daughter, asked disappointedly when she saw Camila entering the yard by herself.

She was certain that her husband would be mocked, so she dared not bring him back,teased Gemma’s third daughter, Belen Lambert.

Hey, Camila, this is where you went wrong. We came all this way just for your husband. Why didn’t you bring him back for us to see?said Gemma’s second son, Reece Lambert.

Camila snorted coldly in her heart.

She knew that they all had ill intentions.

Camila, come inside quickly,Gemma squeezed through the crowd and grabbed Camila’s hand.

Just then, Hudson’s voice came from outside the courtyard, Maxwell, why did you bring so many things?

As everyone turned around, they saw Hudson leading a young handsome man into the yard.

Hudson walked happily into the yard, carrying bags in his

hands.

Camila, is he your husband?Tiana Lambert, Gemma’s

second daughter who had been silent all along, said. He’s so handsome.”

Maxwell asked Hudson to distribute gifts to everyone while he helped Gemma into the house.

Gemma was very happy and kept saying how sorry she was for making Maxwell spend so much money.

When Camila’s relatives saw that Maxwell gave Gemma the best gifts while their gifts were only average, they couldn’t help but feel jealous of Camila and kept saying how lucky she

was.

At that moment, Haley walked into the room and suddenly said to Gemma, Mom, how much did you receive as a dowry for Camila’s marriage?

Gemma froze, unsure of what Haley meant by asking this question.

Haley, what did you want to say?

Camila was raised by the Lambert family. We all took care of her at some point. If it weren’t for us helping her, could she have grown up and gone to college? Now she’s married. Shouldn’t some of her dowry be shared with us?

Yes, I remember when Camila was sick in our childhood, I was the one who took her to the hospital. I paid for the medical expenses,” Reece agreed with Haley.

Reece, when your child went to college, Camila gave you money. Why don’t you mention this?Hudson retorted.

Shut up. I haven’t even told you about the tuition fee you borrowed from me when you were in college,Reece said angrily.

Reece, I paid for my brother’s tuition fees. When have you ever paid for his tuition fees?Camila said.

Once, Hudson ran out of money and he called me. I transferred 30 dollars to him. I didn’t know if that was for tuition fees.Reece seemed a bit deflated.

Belen quickly said, Mom, you can’t be so biased. We all know that Camila bought a house in the city. She’s just a recent graduate. How could she have so much money? It must be you giving her your money. Regardless, your money is also our share. You gave all the money to Camila. It’s only fair for us to receive some of her dowry, right?

How could you ask for Camila’s dowry money?Gemma exclaimed, her face turning pale with anger.

Camila wanted to say something.

However, Maxwell beat me to it and spoke first.

In theory, I shouldn’t interfere in your family matters. However, there are laws in the country and rules within the family. According to customs, the dowry money should be given to the grandmother, but what you all said is reasonable. Since this is the grandmother’s money, as her children, you all have a share.

Haley laughed as soon as she heard this. She praised Maxwell for being sensible.

However, what Maxwell said next made her unable to laugh. But according to the relevant provisions of inheritance law, if children want to divide their parentsproperty, they must fulfill their duty of supporting their parents. Grandma’s hospitalization and surgery cost over 160 thousand dollars

this time. She has a total of five children. Each of you only needs to contribute 16 thousand dollars. Isn’t that unreasonable?

16 thousand dollars? How could we possibly get 16 thousand dollars?Belen was not pleased.

Maxwell smiled. To pay for her grandmother’s surgery, Camila used the 80 thousand dollars dowry and the money from selling her house. She also had a debt of 32 thousand dollars. I can see that you all are not wealthy. How about you split these 32 thousand dollars first?

After Maxwell finished speaking, everyone looked at each

other in confusion.

They all knew that Gemma’s surgery cost over 160 thousand dollars, but they never thought it would have anything to do with them.

According to Maxwell, they carefully calculated and found out that not only did they not receive Camila’s dowry money, but they also had to give out a portion of their own money. This was something they couldn’t accept no matter what.

Camila didn’t expect that Maxwell, who is a top accounting student, would be even more cunning than her.

Moreover, Maxwell was clear and organized, leaving everyone speechless.

At this moment, Tiana, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.

I said that it was very unethical of you to do this. Today, Camila’s husband came here for the first time. You made such

a scene. It was very embarrassing.”

After finishing speaking, Tiana took out 80 dollars from her pocket and handed it to Camila. Camila, I don’t have any special skills to earn money. This is my heartfelt gesture. Don’t think it’s too little.”

Tiana, I couldn’t accept it,” Camila often ate at Tiana’s house when she was a child. Besides Gemma, Tiana was the one who loved her the most.

Here you go. I might not have had the time to attend your wedding. Consider it as my early congratulations to you.”

Tiana forcefully stuffed the money into Camila’s hand and

then turned around and left.

Haley, Belen, and Reece looked at each other. They realized they couldn’t take advantage of the situation, so they left dejectedly.

At noon, Aarav prepared a sumptuous farmhouse meal to entertain Maxwell.

After lunch, Camila accompanied Gemma back to her room to

chat.

Hudson and Maxwell played checkers in the yard.

Camila sat on the sofa in the house, looking through the window at Hudson and Maxwell in the yard, feeling that this scene was very heartwarming.

Camila, have you ever considered having a child?Gemma asked suddenly.

Grandma, I was still young.”

You’re not young anymore. When I was your age, I had already given birth to Hudson’s father.

Hudson’s father was Gemma’s eldest son. He was an honest and simple farmer. Unfortunately, he passed away in an accident. Hudson was only a few months old at that time.

Hudson’s mother remarried later and has since disappeared

without a trace.

Grandma, right now I just want to focus on working hard and ensuring you have a good life. I don’t want to think about anything else yet.

Gemma sighed.

Silly child, your husband was so outstanding. If you didn’t have a child early on to exhaust his energy and prevent him from caring about other women, you would regret it in case he was seduced away by someone else.

Grandma, what is meant to be mine will be mine. Let it be.

While Gemma and Camila were chatting, Maxwell answered a phone call and hurriedly ran out of the yard.

Then Camila’s phone rang.

Maxwell said on the phone that Svetla had collapsed on the street. He was going to rush over immediately and have Camila take the bus back.

Camila felt a little disappointed because Maxwell had once again abandoned her for Svetla.

But she quickly suppressed this emotion.

In the evening, after Camila and Hudson had dinner with Gemma, they took the bus back to the city together.

On the way, Camila saw Hudson still using the phone she had bought for him when he just started college, and the screen of the phone was already cracked.

Hudson, did you run out of money again?
