Transmigrated as the Villain Boss's Precious Darling

Amanda Chapman rinsed the cloth diapers in the river and snorted. "He hasn’t visited once. He hasn’t even sent any living expenses for the past two months. Grandma said that once things aren’t so busy, she’s going to have my eldest uncle go settle the score with my dad!"

"Uncle is so despicable! Cousin, why don’t you have Auntie get a divorce? You and her could come back home to live," Tang Xiaonan said angrily.

Phoebe Thorne had risked her life to give Brian Chapman a son, but that bastard didn’t even bother to ask about her. It would only take him a little over an hour to get here, yet the scumbag hadn’t visited a single time. He used to send the living expenses through the post office, and now he’s stopped sending money altogether. He’s rotten to the core!

Amanda Chapman sighed. "My mom won’t get a divorce. Grandpa and Grandma wouldn’t agree either."

’I wish we could get a divorce,’ she thought. ’We could move back in with Grandma. I’d be happy to do chores every day. If it came down to it, I’d drop out of school and learn how to operate a sewing machine from my eldest aunt. I’m sure I could learn. Even if I only earned one yuan a day, it would be enough. I could definitely support my little brother.’

Tang Xiaonan tossed a rock into the river in frustration. ’Amanda Chapman is right. Neither Phoebe Thorne nor Raina would ever agree to a divorce. People’s thinking is so backward these days. It’s all that "marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog" nonsense. No matter how much of a scumbag the man is, they won’t let the woman divorce him.’

’Besides, Phoebe Thorne has three children and no job. If she gets divorced, what would happen to the kids?’

"This is infuriating! I’m going to have my dad beat up Uncle—give him a good thrashing!"

The more Tang Xiaonan thought about it, the angrier she got. ’If a divorce is out of the question, then the only way to vent is to give him a beating. He has to pay the living expenses. If he doesn’t, he gets beaten.’

Amanda Chapman nodded and said through clenched teeth, "Beat him half to death. When I start earning money, I’ll move my mom out."

’I’m completely done with the Chapman family,’ she thought, her heart turning to ice. ’They don’t even treat my mom like a human being. And my dad is just as bad. He hasn’t visited in over half a year and doesn’t care about my little brother. What a scumbag. He’s probably glad Mom isn’t going back, so it’s more convenient for him and that shameless widow to have their affair!’

’Pah! Shameless couple!’

Felix Thorne and Raina were also discussing the matter. The busy harvest season was over, so they finally had time to go settle the score with the Chapman family.

"A divorce is out of the question, but we have to get the living expenses. If they don’t pay up, we beat them!" Raina said angrily.

Phoebe Thorne’s expression turned bleak. ’I do want a divorce,’ she thought, ’but I can’t bear to leave my children. The Chapmans would never give me my son, and how could I possibly take only my daughters and leave him behind?’

’The thought of staying with Brian Chapman makes me sick. That bastard is probably getting hot and heavy with that widow right now.’

"I still think a divorce is for the best. My sister knows how to use a sewing machine. I’ll buy her a new one, and she can earn money working for the Hawthorne family. Brian Chapman’s measly fixed salary isn’t worth squat!" Goldie Thorne had a different opinion. He really couldn’t stand to see his sister suffer with the Chapman family anymore.

But—

"What the hell do you know!"

Raina slapped him across the face. "Divorce isn’t that simple! It’s not just about money. The children are what’s most important. It’s easy for the adults to just walk away, but what happens to the kids?"

"Let’s go over and see what the Chapman family has to say first. If Brian Chapman is willing to change, we’ll make him write a formal guarantee that he’ll settle down and be a proper husband from now on." Frederick Thorne was also in favor of divorce, but he agreed that the children were a real issue. Even if it went to court, it was unlikely the judge would award all three children to his sister.

Phoebe Thorne gave a bitter smile but said nothing. She knew Brian Chapman would never change, and neither would her in-laws. ’But I suppose this is the only way,’ she thought.

Byron Thorne advised, "This is just how life is. Endure it for a few more years. Once the children are grown, things will be better. Brian won’t have the energy to mess around outside anymore. Just bear with it a little longer!"

In truth, Byron Thorne didn’t think Brian Chapman’s messing around was a big deal. Men, after all, have wandering eyes. Look at Old Sixth—he’d only just settled down in the last couple of years. What Byron Thorne was unhappy about was that Brian Chapman wasn’t just messing around; he was also wasting money. That was the real problem.
