The more she spoke, the harder she cried, finally throwing herself into Nora's arms, sobbing uncontrollably.
Crying loudly, just like at a funeral.
I clenched my fists, ready to speak, but Jason, her father, with bloodshot eyes, stood up and grabbed my dad by the collar. He picked up the ashtray from the coffee table and swung it toward my dad.
"Jason, we've been asking politely for so long, and you refuse to lend us money. Fine. But why bully my daughter?"
"You dare make her cry, I swear I'll kill you!"
This scene was exactly the same as in my past life.
Jason had a violent temper, but he wasn't actually going to hit anyone.
He just picked up the ashtray to scare my parents.
In my previous life, my parents were so frightened by his behavior that they gave them the money, thinking it was better to avoid conflict.
This time, I wouldn't let my family repeat the same mistake!
Sure enough, my dad was scared by Jason's crazy behavior.
He held onto his collar with one hand, trying to stop Jason's hand with the ashtray with the other, his voice anxious. "Brother-in-law, don't do this, that's not what I meant. Let's just talk..."
"Talk? The one who bullies my daughter must pay!"
