Twenty years ago, my late husband signed a property transfer agreement. The agreement was made when he was thirty, and at that time, our son was seven years old and suffering from a hereditary heart condition. Our whole family was worried about our son's health, but my husband opposed spending money on his treatment.
He quickly drafted the property transfer agreement in secret, transferring all our assets to Wang Nan, his first love. Upon hearing this, our son was taken aback.
“Dad didn’t have any money back then, did he?” he asked. “How could Dad afford to make a property transfer?”
I scoffed, “He had already found success in his business; he just never told us, all to keep the money for Wang Nan.”
“What are you saying, Mom?” Our son trembled with anger as he listened. “How could Dad… how could he do this to me?”
“I had a hard life because we were poor,” he continued. “Other kids got new clothes for the New Year, but I never did.”
“When I grew up, I wanted to study abroad, but we didn’t have the money, so I had to settle for an ordinary job.”
“But what about Wang Nan? She’s now the chairwoman of a publicly listed company.”
“What she has is what I should have received.”
“Why… why is Dad doing this to me?”
Unable to contain himself any longer, our son shouted, “Dad, how can you do this?”
“I am your son! Why would you leave your inheritance to that worthless woman?”
“I don’t care; you must give me an explanation!”
The daughter-in-law chimed in from the side.
"You old fool, how dare you do this behind our backs?"
"And you still expect us to take care of you? Dream on!"
On the other end of the line, my partner was mumbling something.
I smiled and said, "Just wait, Wang Nan is currently abroad and might not come back."
"Hang in there; you might still get to see her."
As soon as I finished speaking, an alarm rang out from the phone.
My partner was taken back into the emergency room again.
I called Wang Nan.
"Ms. Wang Nan, you know Jiang Ting, right?"
There was a moment of hesitation before she replied, "Yes, why?"
"He suddenly had a cerebral hemorrhage and has been hospitalized; he's in critical condition."
"What?"
Wang Nan's tone turned frantic.
"How is he doing now?"
I sneered, "He has stabilized, but he needs someone to take care of him."
"His family isn't willing to look after him. Since you're the person he loves most, why don't you take care of him?"
Wang Nan stammered, "I... I've been really busy with work lately."
"I don't have time to care for him."
"Besides, my relationship with him..."
I interrupted her.
"Ms. Wang Nan, Jiang Ting has given you millions in assets."
"Now asking you to spend a little money to take care of him shouldn't be too much to ask, right?"
After saying this, I hung up the phone. I sent a message to Xiaohua. "Xiaohua, where are you? Grandma misses you very much." But Xiaohua didn't reply. I felt anxious. That day, someone told me that a little girl was waiting for me at the entrance of my neighborhood. Suddenly, it dawned on me, and I hurried over.
The moment I saw Xiaohua, I rushed to hug her tightly. "Xiaohua, how have you been lately?" "You've lost weight; haven't you been eating well?" Her eyes were red. I sighed and gently patted her head. "I'm sorry, Xiaohua. Grandma left home a month ago." "I know you've had conflicts with them because of Grandma." "Did your parents hurt you?" Xiaohua shook her head.
I stuffed a paper bag into Xiaohua's hands. "This is the money Grandma saved for you. Take it." "I know you're under a lot of pressure right now; with this money, you can feel a bit easier." "Grandma is working at an art museum now." "Although it's a bit hard to adjust at first, Grandma believes she can take good care of herself." Upon hearing this, Xiaohua could no longer hold back her tears, and they streamed down her cheeks.
