She said, “I’m so envious of you. I had to get married right after high school.”
He was puzzled and asked: “Why? Were your grades bad?”
She replied, “Not as good as yours, but I was the best in my area.”
“Why get married then? Don’t you know that education is the key to a better future?”
Tears welled up in her eyes, “My parents are sick. You’ll understand when you get older.”
“Did she come to borrow money?”
Drew suddenly realized, rushing forward and grabbing Ollie’s shoulders.
He vaguely remembered hearing something about “fifty thousand” when passing by Ollie’s study one day.

But now, thinking back, everything seemed wrong.
Ollie avoided Drew’s gaze, not responding.
“You stole millions from her sister and brother-in-law! Aren’t you supposed to cover their tuition and medical
expenses? Why did you do this? Why?!”

Ableson stepped in and restrained Drew at a signal from Rosalynn while a bodyguard pulled Ollie away.
Ollie, looking like a puppet, dared not lift his head.

“You’re not human!” Drew cried out in agony.
“Drew, I raised you. I was good to you. You can’t deny our bond over this.” Ollie cried bitterly.
“Rosalynn, I’d give my life for you,” Drew said, no longer looking at Ollie. “Let me see my family one last time.”
Rosalynn just stared at him.
Drew paused, his eyes filled with disbelief, “Don’t tell me my family is all dead.”
“Your aunt is still alive. She and her husband are currently working in a factory in P City. They have three children,

“What about the others?” Drew asked through tears, “What about my grandma and uncle?”

That day was Drew’s uncle’s birthday. The whole family had gathered together only to be taken away by an
earthquake in the middle of the night.
They lived in temporary shacks Right in the earthquake’s epicenter.
The quake took the whole family’s lives almost instantly.
Only Drew’s aunt and her family, who could not get leave to attend the birthday party, were lucky enough to
escape the disaster.
This is too tragic, Wilson said, then corrected himself, pointing at Ollie. “No, it’s your fault! If you hadn’t taken that
money, this family could have lived comfortably working on a construction site. They wouldn’t have died in the
earthquake if they hadn’t been on the site. It’s all your fault!”
Drew leaned against the wall, clearly numb.
“Mrs. Silverman, I really can’t stand Drew, but… please let him see his aunt. He’s pitiful,” Wilson said to Rosalynn
without looking at Drew.
