Chapter 53: Buy A House?

After David left Bobby’s house, David asked Wayne and Gordon to drive a car to Aunt Sally’s house to help them to move their things.

He drove to Aunt Diana’s house by himself.

He wanted to find a way to get Aunt Diana’s family to move to River City like Aunt Sally. The house was ready, plus, they could just take a job at the Golden Leaf Hotel so they could get income and live comfortably.

He had already handed over Bobby’s matter to the lawyer and had informed them using his connections. Hence, he did not need to pay attention to the matter anymore. It was not like he was short of money.

Aunt Diana was another light in David’s life apart from Aunt Sally. She had also been very good to him.

Since junior high, Bobby stopped spending any money on David, so some of David’s living expenses and books were paid for by his two aunts.

In his third year of high school, because of the heavy academic work, it was inconvenient for him to study since he could only stay in the same room with Jacey at Aunt Sally’s house, so he moved to Aunt Diana’s house for a year and worked hard for the college entrance examination.

Now that he had the ability, he had to first take care of the two families so that he could feel at ease.

Aunt Diana’s home was in an old residential area in Shu City. Aunt Diana and her husband were both employees of a nearby factory. They only had one daughter, who was four years older than David. Her name was Judy Tanner.

David drove the G-Wagon directly to a familiar residential area. Since it was already a very old residential area, there was no watching the gate. After parking the car downstairs, David went upstairs to Aunty Diana’s home.

Walking down the corridor where he had lived for a year, David felt a little emotional. He seldom came here since he left for college.

It was not that he was ungrateful and unappreciative, but instead, he would go to work part-time during the winter and summer breaks.

He also wanted to make more money himself and try to lighten some of the burden on Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana. That was why he did not often come to visit.

The situation at Aunt Diana’s house was slightly different from that at Aunt Sally’s.

When Aunt Diana gave birth to his cousin Judy, something went wrong and she was unable to get pregnant again.

Because of this incident, the relationship between her and her husband deteriorated, and they even wanted to get a divorce a few times. However, it gradually got better toward the end.

Also, since the couple did not have a son, after David’s parents passed, they fought hard for custody over David.

However, David did not choose them at that time, which led to Uncle Alex Tanner not liking David very much after David moved into their house.

David went to the fourth floor and knocked on the door to Aunt Diana’s house.

Knock knock!

Soon the old security door opened from the inside. A familiar face appeared before David’s eyes. It was Aunt Diana.

“Dave! Aren’t you at university in River City? Why are you back? Come in!” Diana asked.

However, there was clearly a hint of joy in her tone.

Because Diana did not have a son, she genuinely treated David as her son.

“Aunt Diana, it’s the weekend, so I came back to see you,” David replied.

“Come in, come in, don’t stand outside.”

Diana grabbed David’s hand and pulled David into the house. After entering the room, David found that seven or eight people were sitting on the sofa in the living room.

In addition to Uncle Alex and cousin Judy, his fourth uncle, Leslie Lidell, was also there. David did not know the other people.

“Uncle Alex, Uncle Leslie, Judy,” David walked over and greeted them one by one.

The three also nodded in response to David.

Uncle Leslie’s relationship with David was rather normal. Even though he did not help David, he did not hold any grudges against him either.

Aunt Diana’s family and Uncle Leslie’s family were close. As for Uncle Bobby, they had stopped interacting with him after David’s incident.

“Dave, let me introduce you. This is Judy’s boyfriend, his name is Jude Holton and these are his parents. This is Jude’s aunt, and this is his cousin,” Aunt Diana walked over and pointed to the five people David did not know as she introduced them one by one.

“Hello everyone!” David greeted them all but was ignored.

Only then did David realize that something was wrong. Cousin Judy’s eyes were red, as if she had just cried. Uncle Alex also seemed rather angry where he sat.

“In-laws, this is my nephew, my third brother’s son! He’s currently studying at a university in River City,” Diana introduced David to the others.

After being introduced, David followed his aunt Diana to the kitchen to prepare food. The atmosphere in the living room was too solemn and he did not want to stay there.

However, Aunt Diana chased him out since his Aunt Lisa was in the kitchen and his help was not needed.

Without another choice, David sat in the living room and pretended to be preoccupied with what was showing on the television.

He had originally planned to come clean with his aunt Diana about his current financial situation and persuade them to move to River City with him. However, there were too many people here for him to say anything, so he would have to wait for the next opportunity to tell her.

At this moment, Judy’s future father-in-law started talking.

“So, what do you think about our suggestion?”

“I don’t agree!” Alex replied angrily.

“Then what do you want? Don’t tell me you want my son to come and live in a house as run-down as this! How many years have you lived here, huh? There isn’t even a good school nearby, where will their children study? How do you plan to solve the issue of education? I would have broken them up if not for how deeply in love they were!”

“Mom! What are you saying?” Jude shouted.

“Shush, Jude. Don’t tell me you actually plan to stay here your whole life? You’re our only son, there’s no way I would allow you to live with them!” Jude’s mother insisted.

Jude did not say anything more. He did not want to live in this place forever either. Extremely infuriated, Alex wanted to refute but could not say anything. Their family conditions were indeed worse than Jude’s.

It was indeed too much to ask for Jude to marry and stay with them, but Judy was his only daughter and he did not want her to move out.

He wanted to be able to play with his grandchildren after he retired.

If his daughter married out, then he and his wife would end up alone and pitiful after they retired.

Just then, Diana walked out and said, “Actually, we’ve already decided to buy a house. We’ve been looking at some options lately, so you don’t need to worry about their child’s education.”

“Buy a house? You think I don’t know about your financial situation? Both you and your husband are just ordinary laborers! There’s no way you can buy a house! Do you know how expensive houses are these days? Even second-handed houses are expensive, and there’s no way my son’s living in a second-handed house after marriage!”

Diana remained quiet.

They were indeed planning to buy a second-handed house in a school area, a rather old one at that. They just could not afford a new house. Judy started sobbing quietly.

Her parents wanted her boyfriend Jude to move in after they got married, while her boyfriend’s parents strongly disagreed. Most importantly, her family conditions were not as nice as her boyfriend’s, and she too wanted to give her child a good educational environment.
