Love from My Dominant Boss

“If you haven’t gathered the required sum, why the heck are you here?”

The moment my mother found out I still hadn’t gathered the required sum, she pushed me away with all her might and glared at me in the eyes.

I was upset by her response. Staring at her in the eyes with sorrow written all over my face, I answered, “I’m only here because I’m worried about you and Dad. I thought I can help keep an eye on Steven in the ward.”

“If you still care about us, why don’t you get us the money we need for the operation? He needs it urgently or he’ll end up crippled! Are you really going to forsake your brother?”

Up until that very moment, she still thought I had been keeping a fortune from her for myself.

Sighing, I looked her in the eyes and announced, “Mom, can you stop being so unreasonable? If I had the money, I would have given you already.”

Glaring daggers at me, she repeated herself, “If you still consider yourself a member of the family, gather the required sum at all costs! If anything happens to Steven, I won’t forgive you!”

Once again, I had no choice but to bear the burden of the family.

“M-Mom—”

I had no intention to blame her for forcing me to gather the required sum, but I couldn’t stand her threatening me over and over again. Is she actually saying that she would hold me accountable if Steven really ends up crippled?

I’m equally upset by Steven’s condition! But how can she make it sound as if I was the one who brought upon his misery? What else am I supposed to do?

“Well? Get going already!”
