Chapter 20 Severing Relationship

The words spoken showed no respect for Fred but Lance’s grandmother didn’t say anything to stop her.

Lance could even vaguely hear his “good grandmother” comforting his third aunt.

Putting on an act of deep mother-daughter affection here?

She was biased to the extreme!

Lance was unhappy, but he did not rush to speak up again.

Seeing this, Fred began to speak.

Fred’s mother was still present. Even if he was angry with his sister, he could not go too far.

After pondering for a long time, Fred slowly said.

“Is Lance wrong? He earned all this money. Does he not have the right to control it?”

“Although Lance is still young, he is capable enough. I won’t touch this sum of money easily.”

“Also, my son is the most outstanding. Sister, I advise you not to slander him casually and weaken our relationship!”

The more Fred spoke, the more agitated he became. In the end, his tone was no longer as calm as before, but mixed with some emotions.

Hearing Fred’s words, Lance’s eyes flashed and a smile appeared on his face.

Then, he thought that the other party would restrain himself because of Fred’s tough attitude, but who would have thought that Lance’s grandmother would snatch the phone away?

“Fred, I don’t care who earned this money, but you have to lend it to your brother and sister!”

“Blood is thicker than water. You’ve earned so much money, but you don’t even lend it to your younger siblings. Are you going to lend it to others? Anyway, you can’t spend it all, so lend them 100,000 yuan each. No, 200,000 yuan!”

“I gave birth to you and raised you for so many years. It’s time for you to return the favor. This matter is not negotiable.”

This old lady’s attitude was unyielding, and her words destroyed Lance’s guiding principles and values.

What did she mean, he had to lend it to his younger siblings?

After the old lady finished speaking, his second uncle and third aunt’s bragging voices could be heard coming from the phone.

Tsk, shameless.

Lance temporarily suppressed his disgust and called up the system.

After a simple thought, he smoothly investigated the repayment rate of his second uncle and third aunt after borrowing money.

“Repayment rate is zero.”

Lance was not surprised to see the words on the system.

After all, his so-called grandmother had said that she wanted his father to give these two vampires money to spend.

With these words on the system, it would be strange if they could return the money.

After checking the repayment rate, Lance checked the rate of return.

This time, he realized that Second Uncle’s return on investment after borrowing money was higher than Third Aunt’s.

Seeing this, Lance naturally didn’t think that his second uncle had a conscience.

Lance remembered that his second uncle had a son and a daughter. His son was idle all day and had inherited all his father’s flaws. Fortunately, his daughter was promising and had a good temper.

To be able to stay true to herself in such a family environment, Lance felt that his cousin sister was not bad.

Thinking of this, Lance silently made a decision.

He could lend money to his second uncle. However, there was a prerequisite!

“Second Uncle, I can lend you the money.”

Under Fred’s shocked gaze, Lance said calmly.

As soon as Lance finished speaking, the other party replied in surprise.

“Really? I knew Lance was the most sensible! Second Uncle didn’t dote on you for nothing!”

“In that case, quickly transfer the money!” Lance could imagine the greedy expression on his second uncle’s face even though they were separated by a screen.

“But there are conditions.” Lance’s tone suddenly changed, and his gaze became sharp. “I want you to cut ties with Third Aunt.”

As soon as these words were spoken, even Fred could not help but gasp.

However, Fred didn’t think that Lance was overdoing it. He just felt that his son was mature enough to be able to settle such a matter.

“Lance, what do you mean?”

“You little brat, trying to drive a wedge between your aunt and me? Fred, how did you teach your child?”

Lance’s second uncle was indeed agitated. He began to criticize without restraint.

After he finished speaking, Lance replied leisurely without changing his expression.

“Second Uncle, I’ve already made my intentions clear. I’m in charge of my money.

Since you want this money, you have to pay the price.”

“Either you continue to love Third Aunt and her family, or you promise to cut ties with Third Aunt now before I can lend you money.”

“Second Uncle, I’ll only give you two choices and one chance.”

Lance spoke seriously, and his second uncle fell silent. Lance’s third aunt heard this and began to stomp her feet.

“Second Brother, don’t tell me you really listen to a little kid? His words are insignificant!”

“You want to break off our relationship? We’re biological siblings…”

**Smack!** The crisp sound of a slap was particularly clear coming from the phone receiver.

This showed his second uncle’s attitude-to cut ties with his third aunt.

This was also something within Lance’s expectations.

His second uncle wanted to save money to give his son a betrothal gift for marriage. Compared to his son’s affairs, his third aunt seemed insignificant. Under normal circumstances, the outcome of this matter might be different, but the timing was just right now. So, Lance suggested that his second uncle cut ties with his aunt precisely at this time.

Lance said unhurriedly, “Second Uncle, it seems like you’ve already made your choice.”

“Yes, I’ll cut ties with your aunt.”

Lance’s second uncle’s tone was cold, but Lance didn’t care at all. “Second Brother, are you crazy? We are siblings. You slapped me for the money and want to cut ties with me?”

“Crazy, simply crazy. You listen to a little kid?

Heh, just you wait. You’ll surely regret it!” On the phone, Third Aunt’s voice disappeared with the heavy slamming of the door.

Then came the sighs and complaints from Lance’s Granny. Most of them were scolding Fred and Lance, but Lance could not be bothered.

If she really felt sorry for her daughter, she would have chased after her long ago. Why was she still here?

This biased old lady, she knew very well which was more important.

“200,000 yuan. Can you transfer it to me now?”

A moment later, Lance’s second uncle asked anxiously.

“I’m only lending you 80,000 yuan,” Lance said bluntly.

“80,000 yuan?” The other party raised his voice. “Lance, I want 200,000 yuan and you’re giving me 80,000 yuan? Are you kidding me?”

“200,000 yuan, not a single cent less!”

“80,000 yuan. Take it or leave it.” Lance continued right on the heels of Second Uncle’s words.

He was firm in his attitude and he had no intention of joking.

Even 80,000 yuan was not a small sum.

To do this, Lance had already done his best.

“Alright! 80,000 yuan it is. You can’t go back on your word this time.”

After hesitating for a moment, Lance’s second uncle gritted his teeth and said.

80,000 yuan was better than nothing!

After Lance’s second uncle hung up the phone, Fred and Helen looked at each other worriedly. They wanted to say something but hesitated. Seeing this scene, Lance knew that they felt that his second uncle would not return the money but they did not know how to tell Lance about it.

There was no need for them to say anything. Lance knew this very well.

To him, 80,000 yuan was just a small sum of money. He could earn it back in minutes. What he really wanted was for his second uncle to break off the relationship with his third aunt!
