Jalen was dumbfounded and said awkwardly, “Martha, it’s not as evil as you make it out to be...”Martha said expressionlessly, “I don’t know if there is such evil or not. People say that you should not put all your eggs in one basket, but the main point is that you cannot have only one egg. If you have enough eggs, God would also be tired if He were to smash them one by one. Besides, He would also feel numb and indifferent if he smashed too many eggs, and maybe He would stop, then.”The other three were all shocked when they heard this.They dared not imagine that Martha was actually referring to her own children and grandchildren when she spoke of these so-called eggs. What she meant was that even if God were to collect her children and grandchildren one by one, He would also be very tired. If He collected more, he might even miss out on one or two and leave them behind. Martha did not take the three people’s shock to heart. Instead, she merely asked lightly, “How long will it
Danny, who weighed more than two hundred pounds, never would have dreamt that the police would come looking for him one day.Danny had always felt that his mother was a person with great ability. She had a way to make a lot of money in the United States, and he only needed to exchange her US dollars to Oskian dollars in Oskia and then enjoy prosperity and wealth. He did not bother to worry about whether his mother’s money came from the right means or whether their own private exchange of foreign currency was illegal or a crime.So, he asked the police with a surprised expression, “What do you mean by that? What do you mean when you say I’m suspected of money laundering? What money did I launder?”The police said coldly, “We have sufficient evidence to prove that all the assets you and your brother own are illegal gains obtained through illegal currency exchange! We also have evidence to prove that you’re laundering money for an offshore criminal organization!”“What?!” Danny said
As soon as the eldest daughter-in-law heard that she might be sentenced to prison, she was scared out of her wits.The second daughter-in-law had a weak personality. So, when she heard this, she was so frightened that she fell to the ground.The eldest daughter-in-law also lost her shrewd attitude from earlier and quickly cried out as she asked the police officer, “So, what should we do now? You have arrested all the men in our family, so should we and our kids wait to die, then?!”The police officer immediately said, “Don’t worry. I will notify your neighborhood committee immediately to pay attention to your situation so that you will not have any needs in life. The neighborhood committee will definitely help you solve your problems, but it’s just as I’ve said, and you must understand what is legal and what is illegal first. There are already three criminal suspects in your family, so don’t push yourself down the path of breaking the law again!” After saying that, the police offi
“What?!” Martha only felt extremely shocked at this moment.She hurriedly asked, “Why did the police arrest them? Did they mention the reason why?”At this moment, Martha kept praying to God in her heart as she hoped that her husband and two sons would have been taken away by the police because of gambling, prostitution, or something else.It would not even matter if they were taken away by the police because of murder. But no matter what it was, it should not be money laundering!This was because murder would be nothing to fuss about!It would not matter even if any one of her two sons or husband were sentenced to death or even if all three of them were sentenced to death. After all, there would be a day when they would come out sooner or later. However, everything would really be over if it was a money laundering crime!That would mean that all the assets that she had worked hard for over so many years would be seized in accordance with the law!More than half of her life’
The second daughter-in-law, who was next to her, then blurted out without hesitation, “If even you don’t dare to do it, I naturally wouldn’t dare to do so either!” As she said that, she cried and said, “The police can seize whatever they want to seize. For so many years, aside from bringing up the children at home, I’ve never done anything illegal in the eyes of the law, so the police definitely will not be able to arrest me.”When the eldest daughter-in-law heard this, she also chimed in and said, “Yes, that’s right... We are just two women, and aside from giving birth, nursing our children, and raising our children, we do not know of anything else, and we have never done anything illegal. The police will certainly not be able to do anything to us!” When Martha heard this, the anger deep in her heart surged. She wanted to rush back immediately and hack these two daughters-in-law of hers to death.She clenched her jaw tightly and said in a cold and hysterical tone, “You have been
Although the Oskian ancestors had long admonished that money would come and go, in truth, many people still valued money more than life.For a heinous person like Martha, she had long put matters of her life and death aside, and the most important thing for her was to make more money so that her family could continue flourishing.If her descendants could become rich heirs in the future and continue being prosperous, that would be her ultimate life goal.Her ultimate life goal was not focused on any single descendant, but it was to enable her entire family to have a complete change of fate.To put it bluntly, she was willing to sacrifice herself to make several generations of her descendants happy. Therefore, she would never hesitate if she were to be killed at this moment as long as her family would not be affected in any way.But now, this matter had developed in the direction that she least wanted. It was the fact that this foundation that she had worked so hard for was fall
This was also the case for Jalen.Although he was also working alone in the United States to earn money and his wife, children, and grandchildren were all relying on his support in Oskia, his family was not considered rich in Oskia yet. Over the years, the cash that he had given to his family time after time was estimated to be around ten million Oskian dollars.In his opinion, this amount of money was enough for his family to live, but it was not as obvious and ostentatious as Martha’s. So, his family should be very safe even though Martha’s family members had been arrested. As Jalen thought of this, he felt even smugger and could not help but secretly think to himself, ‘Martha, oh, Martha, I never expected that you would also end up in this state one day! You usually scold me every day as if you’re some big shot with extreme power, so why don’t you have the same bullish energy that you had before now? I did not mind your age and wanted to be a temporary couple with you so that
Jalen, who had been secretly mocking Martha, collapsed and lost consciousness in an instant because he could not stand this sudden blow.Kyler hurriedly helped Jalen who had fallen to the ground up. He massaged him as he said helplessly, “Uncle, weren’t you very open-minded when you were persuading Aunt Martha earlier? Why don’t you have the same mentality when it comes to yourself?”When Martha saw that Jalen was unconscious, even though she was in despair, her mood seemed to ease a little. It was as if another acquaintance had suddenly jumped in with her when she was feeling desperate after falling into an abyss. This somehow comforted her a little. So, she spoke up and said to Kyler, “What’s the use of squeezing him so hard? He will not wake up even if you knock his front teeth off. Hurry up and pour some water on him to wake him up!”Kyler looked at Heather, who was next to him, and blurted out, “Go and get some water from the car. Why are you still standing here in a daze
