Then, he pointed at the foundation and perfume in the hands of Emma and Sophia's grandchildren. "Aunt Emma, your grandson is holding a Chanel foundation, which costs more than a thousand dollars. Aunt Sophia, your granddaughter is holding a Maison Francis Kurkdjian perfume..." He paused, his eyes sympathetic. "It's a bit expensive, more than six thousand dollars."
These words shocked them.
"Alexander, are you blackmailing us? These things add up to almost ten thousand dollars?" Ava was the first to lose her temper and shout.
Emma and Sophia also looked horrified.
"Alexander, we have all watched you grow up. It's wrong for you to do that." Emma pressed her lips and looked at Alexander.
Alexander lowered his head, grabbed the corner of my clothes, and said, "Then don't bully my wife."
"You! Adam, look at him! He is so ungrateful!" Emma was angry, and the other aunts were whispering.
Adam looked at the mess and yelled, "Alright! Stop arguing!"
He glanced at me and said, "Buying such expensive cosmetics is simply extravagant!" Then he said in a deep voice, "I'm in charge of this matter. You don't have to pay it back. Brittany, be sensible. This way I won't hold you accountable for spending so much money."
Emma, Sophia, Brad, and Ava all looked happy.
Well, I was so pissed off.
They were so shameless and simply insane.
What would it have to do with them if I had spent my own money?
Adam said he didn't pursue the matter. Did he think he was a lawyer?
My daughter, Ashley Sinclair, and son, Frank Sinclair, ran over and hugged Alexander's legs. "Dad, I'm hungry..."
I rubbed their heads, took a deep breath, and interrupted their compliments to Adam, "I bought expensive things because I deserve them, not because my money was earned for nothing. We all know how you treated Alexander when he was a child. Don't blackmail me morally I'll send you the purchase records later. Otherwise, I'll call the police."
