Iâm A Quadrillionaire chapter 110 David arrived at Jaceyâs bedroom and tried to push open the door. It was to no avail, though, because Jacey had locked it from the inside.
âKnock knock.â
David knocked on the door and said, âItâs me, Jace, open the door.â
After a while, the sound of the door unlocking could be heard, but the door remained closed.
David pushed open the door and entered, only to see Jacey fuming on the bed.
Jacey was only sixteen this year, studying his first year of high school at Shu City. His father Yousef had pulled many connections to enroll Jacey into a good high school.
Jacey was currently at a rebellious age, so he wanted to take revenge when his mom got beaten up.
It was only natural that he would feel angry when his dad made him stay at home.
âWhat happened, Jace? Tell me,â David said as he walked over to pat Jaceyâs shoulder.
âDave! Quin hit my mom! Iâm going to f*cking kill him, but my dad wonât let me go! Just because my dadâs a coward doesnât mean I am too!â Jacey said angrily.
David smacked the back of Jaceyâs head and reprimanded, âExcuse me? Who talks about their dad like that, huh?â
âIâm not wrong!â Jacey refuted.
âYour dadâs not being a coward, heâs being logical. What if something happened to him? What will happen to you and your sister? Your momâs back is weak, she canât do anything too straining. Your dadâs the one holding your whole family up, he already has enough on his hands. How can you call him a coward?â
âIf he canât afford to go, then at least let me! But he wonât let me go out.â
âStop saying that youâre going to kill people here and there. Your momâs going to be heartbroken if something happens to you. This happened because of me, so let me resolve this, okay? I promise Iâll get justice.â
âReally?â Jacey asked.
âOf course! Just you wait! Once Aunt Sallyâs back recovers, weâll go and take revenge for Aunt Sally!â
âAlright! You said it, Dave!â
David brought Jacey out and they sat in the living room, waiting for Lily to bring breakfast over.
In the living room, David told Uncle Yousef he wanted to bring Aunt Sally to River City for treatment.
Yousef gave it some thought and agreed, then he called his superior and asked for a leave.
He wanted to bring Sally to the large hospitals in River City a long time ago, but Sally always refused.
In truth, Sally just wanted to keep the expenses low. After all, Yousef was the only one working in this household and their current expenses were already pretty high.
Sally woke up not too long after.
David quickly rushed over. âAunt Sally! How are you feeling?â
âDave? Why are you here?â Sally asked.
âAunt Sally, how can I not come back when something this big happened?â David replied.
âItâs not a big deal. My backâs always been bad. Iâll be fine after a few days.â
âAunt Sally, why did you have to go and ask Bobby for the compensation? Donât you know what kind of person he is?â
âBut your parents left that money for you. Youâre about to graduate from university, and youâll need that money to plan your wedding. I have to get it back for you! Plus, we have the agreement he signed.
Worse comes to worst, we can just file a suit against him!â Sally replied.
âAlright. We can talk about this later, whatâs most important now is to get treatment for your back. I already called a good hospital in River City, and we can leave in a bit.â
âRiver City? Iâm not going! Iâm fine! Iâll be good as new in a few days, so thereâs no point in going at all.
Iâve dealt with this back for years,â Sally rejected.
What Sally was worried about was how much the treatment in River City would cost.
Her family was not wealthy, as Yousef was the only working adult and the sole breadwinner Her children were currently studying in university and high school, while even Davidâs school fees were raised with the help of Davidâs aunt Diana.
There were little to no savings at home, and using the limited funds on her treatment would only make the financial situation at home more precarious.
