"And as for those jewels and whatnot, Dad cashed them out for investment back then, dreaming of a comeback, but ended up with nothing." Julie Sampson said, "He not only has no money, but he also always believed that the Sampton Familyâs bankruptcy was not due to his incompetence but because of bad luck. So, he was always thinking about reopening the company and making money to become President Sampson again."
Therefore, Jane Sampsonâs inheritance is undoubtedly the last hope for Father Sampson now, so even if he had to throw away his dignity, he would still try to get some money out of Jane Sampsonâs inheritance to use as capital for his comeback.
"Today Iâve really seen it all." Brooke Black clicked her tongue several times and turned to look at Julie Sampson, "But then again, arenât you tempted by Jane Sampsonâs inheritance? If you really were to start a lawsuit, your dad might very well end up with over 100 million, and youâd get tens of millions."
"If itâs not mine, using it would only shorten my life. I truly understand this now. I was confused before, but now I know what gratitude means. If she, Jane Sampson, hadnât helped me, my life wouldnât be as pleasant and free as it is nowadays. Money, you canât take it with you when youâre born or when you die. I already have enough for my lifetime, so I donât need any more."
Julie Sampson doesnât think she has the right to spend Jane Sampsonâs inheritance.
She also remembers Jane Sampsonâs kindness. If Jane Sampson hadnât helped her back then, she would still be living a desperate life with her mother, and maybe, driven by necessity, she would have had to go back overseas to take on work that paid less than ten bucks an hour.
During that period, reality told Julie Sampson that her father was selfish and unreliable, so she never counted on him. If that day ever came when she was truly destitute, her good daddy wouldnât help her and her mother.
Impossible. Julie Sampson could see it all very clearly. Even if Bright Sampton would help her, Father Sampson wouldnât.
Julie Sampson even harbors quite a bit of resentment towards her father.
The Black Family was all quite surprised that Julie Sampson could say such words.
After all, in their view, the Julie Sampson of the past was just a downright fool.
"We understand. If he has the face to come here, we have the ability to kick him out and let him get nothing." Old Master Black waved his hand. "Itâs getting late, so we wonât keep you two any longer. Iâll arrange for a driver to take you to your place. If you havenât found a place to stay yet, Iâll have the driver arrange one for you too."
"No need for lodging, Mom and I have already booked a hotel. Just trouble Old Master Black to arrange a driver to take us there." At this time of day, itâs hard to catch a ride from the Black Familyâs old mansion, so Julie Sampson didnât refuse Old Master Blackâs offer to arrange a driver.
Seeing that Old Master Black wasnât concerned at all, Julie Sampson didnât say much else, and she left the Black Family with Mother Sampson.
After watching the driver take them away, Brooke Black sighed, "People sometimes have to break a leg and injure a hand before they grow up. If Julie Sampson and her mom had been as sensible as they are now from the beginning, the Sampton Family might not have ended up where it is today."
Not to mention, if Julie Sampson hadnât been so infuriating back then, Old Sir Sampson and Granny Sampson might still be alive now.
