The Winner Takes Everything
Divorcement

"Mrs. Hughes, I'm sorry to tell you that your mother has end-stage liver cancer..

Seeing the doctor shake his head, Jack suddenly felt dizzy with red eyes

Ever since she was a child, her mother and she had been relying on each other. To finance his education, his mother worked too hard and was sick. Without having the chance to enjoy his twilight years, he instead suffered.

"Doctor, can you save my mother? Is there any way we can try?" Jack pleaded in a hoarse voice and almost cried.

“Actually there is a way of liver transplant. Fortunately the hospital was able to make it happen.” said the doctor after hesitating for a moment.

He stopped again while staring at Jack from top to bottom. He knows very well how long and difficult medical treatment has cost Jack.

However, he decided to give it to Jack, "But it was quite expensive - at least two hundred thousand yuan."

Two hundred thousand yuan?

Jack's eyes suddenly lit up as he grabbed the doctor's hand, "I still have two hundred thousand yuan! You have to save him. Help me!"

Jack knows that he can make that money again, but his mother's life won't last.

"Then you have to make money as soon as possible. If this is delayed, even a liver transplant will not save your mother," the doctor nodded with a sigh before leaving.

He quickly went home and saw Katherine, his wife, sitting on a chair.

"Mom is dying?" Katherine asked while taking a quick look at Jack.

"The doctor said a liver transplant is the only way we have," Jack sounded as if he had grabbed onto the last hope while continuing excitedly. "It costs two hundred thousand yuan, and fortunately we still have it. I have one last chance here."

A second later, he turned around to pick up a bank card.

However, Katherine's face changed as she stopped him, "Jack, stop right there!"

Jack frowned as if he suddenly remembered something important. He turned around and looked at Katherine, "Where's the money?"

His wife looked confused as she started to stammer.

"Did you give it to your family again?" Jack raised his eyebrows with a bitter smile.

He felt weak and headed to the sofa while taking out the cigarette box from his pocket. With a flash, he smoked a cigarette and fainted on the sofa.

They had been married for three years, and it had happened before.

"Katherine, that money is my last hope to save mom."

Jack said tiredly, "Can we get it back?"

"Take it back?" Katherine raised her eyebrows as she screeched, "Jack, what are you trying to say? I gave it to my parents as a princess. How can I ask them to return it?"

A cold expression appeared on Jack's face as he said, "There is a suitable heart waiting for the mother in the hospital now. If I can pay the bill now, the hospital can get a liver transplant right away. From what I see, mom is on her last leg."

"That's not what I'm worried about. This is your problem and you have to find another solution," Katherine suddenly cried as she muttered.

"How do I get two hundred thousand yuan in such a short time?" Jack felt his head was about to explode, but he still begged Katherine in a pitiful tone, "Katherine, you have to help me. Get back. My mother can't live without money!"

"Jack! I told you I gave it to my mother.

There's no way I can ask for it anymore" lamented Katherine as she sat on the floor, "Your mother will die. but you still continue to burn money to the hospital.

Have you ever stood in my position and thought of us?"

Hearing that, Jack shuddered. He felt that he would explode in anger at any moment.

Before she could stop him, the call came in, "Mom, Katherine has given you two hundred thousand yuan, right?" Jack pleaded, ""Can we get him back? Mum's dying. I need him to pay for his surgery because he's waiting for a liver transplant in the hospital."

On the other end of the phone, her mother-in-law Elissa reprimanded her with a scream, "Jack, what nonsense are you saying now? Katherine has given us the money, and you have the guts to ask for it? We've never agreed to your marriage, so you should feel lucky because Katherine's going to marry you, poor man.

"Now, Katherine expressed her gratitude to both of us for raising her, but you, a poor man from the countryside, want us to return the money. How ridiculous! Let me explain. Tommy's getting married soon, and we're gonna use those two hundred grand for his future house down payment. You want to go back? It's impossible."

With that, the phone died.

Jack was completely dumbfounded. Does Elissa not understand his words? His mother relied on the money to save his life!

"Jack, are you crazy?" Katherine snatched Jack's clothes furiously as she howled, "How can you do that? Is it wrong if I give some money to my parents?"

Jack looked at her with angry eyes, "So you think your sister's new home is more important than my mother's life?"

"Omong empty!"

Katherine let go before taking the items in their house and throwing them into chaos.

He then slumped to the floor while continuing to scold, "Jack, you are completely useless. Why would I marry you? Do you know how much you have burned for your mother? I've been eating sparingly ever since I married you. We're even renting this fucking house now. Have you ever thought of me? Tommy is my younger brother. So is yours. He's getting married. How can you blame me for helping?"

"Hands out helping?"

Jack was really angry back then, "For the last three years since we got married, how many times have you helped a useless Tommy, a man who did nothing but support his parents? You're the one who made Tommy such a loser. ."

"Never talk about my sister like that!"

Katherine retorted with her completely distorted face as she pointed towards him with trembling fingers.

Jack chuckled coldly. "Why can't I? When she causes someone to get pregnant when she's at university.

I'm the one who solved this problem for him.

I bought him a car. Do you know how much I've contributed to your family? You can't stop spoiling your sister! You really don't think about us."

"ah! Quiet down!" Katherine screeched, "What do you mean by that? You want to ruin our lives?"

"You just want to use that money for your brother's useless new home. You know my mom's dying without that money. You're the one who's gonna ruin our lives!"

Jack shrugged as he declared with a cold face, "We're going to get divorced."

Katherine was stunned, though,

"What's? What are you saying?"

For the past three years, this was the first time Jack had spoken like that to her.

"I want a divorce." Jack repeated, "It seems like you've suffered a lot living with me, and I'm not worth your time either. I'm sick of your family."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

He has made his decision. For the past three years, he had endured in silence the entire time. She thinks Katherine married her at the expense of her superior background, and they have a good relationship.

But now he can't take it anymore.

After Jack leaves, Katherine calls Elissa's mother, "Our mother is getting a divorce."

"That bastard really has guts." Elissa roared, "Then just leave her! He was nothing more than a broken, useless man. Two hundred thousand yuan stay with me. If she wants a divorce, it's up to her. Let him fight endlessly with his fucking mother"
