"She's truly the most filial daughter in the country! She brought me to tears!"
Cherry unaware of the invisible livestreaming at home, she simply helped me roll over and took me to the bathroom to shower. But she was too tired. She struggled mightily but couldn't lift me from the bed.
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
Cherry opened it and saw Shane standing there. She was startled, "Why are you here?"
Shane said nonchalantly, "Mom gave me eight million and Dad asked me to come back for a few days just to make it look good and avoid gossip!"
With that, he squeezed through the door. Cherry was exhausted from the day and too lazy to say anything.
She simply said to her brother, "Then come over here and lend a hand. Help me get Mom to the bathroom. I need to give her a bath!"
Shane glanced over and said in disgust, "She's so disgusting. She stinks of shit and piss. I don't even want to touch her!"
Cherry frowned, "Shane, Mom just gave you all the eight million dollars in compensation for the demolition. How can you not even help me?"
Shane snorted, "She gave it to me voluntarily. Are you trying to blackmail me?"
Cherry sighed, "I respect Mom's decisions. She gave you all the compensation so you could settle down, get married and live a good life. I just hope you won't let Mom down and make her feel bad."
Shane looked at her with disdain. "Cherry, why are you always thinking about a paralyzed old loser like her? You're wasting your time serving her. She might as well just die.”
The comments immediately boiled over.
"Fuck, what kind of son is this? He actually cursed his mother to death right in front of her!"
"The key is, even a mother like this beastly son still loves him! Eight million! She gave it all to this beast without blinking an eye!"
"I really don't know what she's thinking. Her daughter went into debt and even divorced to take care of her and she didn't get a penny. She's so blindly partial!"
"She doesn't love such a filial daughter, but loves this inhumane son. She favors boys over girls to this extent. No wonder she's paralyzed!"
Shane ultimately didn't help. Meanwhile, Cherry spent over an hour cleaning me. She was sweating profusely, but she still carefully changed me into clean clothes and placed me in a wheelchair.
"Mom, are you hungry? I'll make you dinner," she said to me.
