"Actually there is nothing wrong in all of your opinions, it's just that. Maybe people's perceptions are different, we can't generalize all other people's thoughts to be the same as ours. Because humans are born in this world in their own way and with different thoughts Maybe what you say makes perfect sense for how you feel, but maybe what you say doesn't make sense to people who don't feel it in your position.
Those who are deprived of food out there, who are always hungry to sleep, who work day and night but earn little wages. will definitely think that money can buy everything, they will feel alive if they get money in abundance.
But, why do you have to worry about unnecessary things? It doesn't matter if you have different thoughts, But what matters is when you don't have those thoughts and each other's anxieties. Just live your way, as long as you're happy. Don't care about anything else, do good and give your best. The way you need to always prioritize.
If you really have a lot of money and think it can't buy happiness. just try to give the money to those who need it more, then you will see the happy face of that person." I patted Edwards lightly on the shoulder, kissed his arm once again. I can only give this answer, because I think this is the best answer.
Edwards can be heard sighing softly, then he looks into my eyes and smiles. "You always know how to calm my heart, you're probably just like people out there. Love money and need it for happiness. But you gave me a good understanding, so I know that people who like money are not people who really greedy or evil. At least things like this I will remember, so I don't look down on everyone I meet.
Sometimes I always feel uncomfortable when someone acts very strange, They adore me and respect me like God. For what? so that they get more positions and money.
But, speaking of your wishes in old age. Have you raised enough money?" Edwards asked me.
I heard his answer just shook my head. "Life in this big city is very difficult. Needs and income cannot be balanced. Sometimes even the need is greater than income. I only save a little bit, at least I still have savings." I say slowly.
"What if the savings in my mother's name, I give to you?" Edwards' words immediately made me speechless. I looked into his eyes in disbelief, how could he give his savings to me?
"Don't be like that, I'm not someone who likes to take advantage of situations. You just keep the savings, there are times when you will need the savings." I said slowly.
"I want to give it to our child, if one day something unpleasant or unexpected happens. I want you to go as far as possible and bring all my savings, I want our child to live well and not lack anything . like what you said, because when I heard what you told me earlier. I became when the future of my child, will he live comfortably and comfortably like me? Can he eat well and healthy? I wonder and start to worry myself ." When I heard that, I just laughed.
"Why are you so worried? Didn't you say you have a lot of wealth earlier? Even some of the Douglas family property is yours. I think until you have grandchildren and your grandchildren have grandchildren again, the treasure will not run out." I said a little funny, but unfortunately Edwards didn't laugh. he seemed to be thinking about a lot of things.
His brow furrowed and I could tell that he was really feeling restless and worried right now.
"When our child is born, then some of my property will go to my son. That treasure can be used and he can use it if he is an adult. Around 17 or 18 years, as long as that. Before he is really an adult, then the treasure will be held by the Head of the Douglas Family. Mrs. Douglas, Grandma Lecy or if Grandma Lecy dies. It will be held by Mrs. Annelise.
What I worry about is not the treasure, but the safety of my son. I'm afraid when my son will grow up, something bad will happen. I'm also afraid that if one day I die, my son will be abandoned and his property taken." Edwards' words made me swallow hard.
Why is it so complicated for the rich? Wealth alone can be a long story. It is true that the saying goes, about your wealth or money alone can be an enemy.
"Then? Your partial treasure? Wouldn't that not be able to fall into the hands of others?" I asked quietly, Because I still don't understand how the system of wealth distribution in the Douglas family is.
"The treasure is mine, but if I die. Then it will automatically change hands to my son. And if my son dies before he reaches adulthood, it will be in full control of the head of the Douglas Family. pregnant and having children. At first I didn't want to be too pushy, but the more I came here I felt pressured by all the wishes of my family. I also really want to have a child who looks like me, then I can take good care of him." One more secret told by Edwards.
I took a deep breath and nodded in understanding. "No wonder your family is very enthusiastic about a successor, it turns out that they have big intentions hidden." I said, I understand why Mrs. Anne would give me 10 billion, if I gave birth to Edwards descendants. It turns out that he will get more profits, what does 10 billion mean? if Mrs. Anne will get tens of trillions? ckckckck.. Evil witch, I'm sorry I ever respected her so much. Turns out he was so cunning and greedy.
"So, if something happens to me someday after our child is born. Don't ever care about me, just take your child as far away from my family as possible. Make sure you are not found by anyone. Bring all the savings I have. your name, I want you to be a good mother to our child. That's all I want in this world." Edwards stroked my hair gently, he smiled and kissed my forehead gently.
I feel sad, even though this child has not really been seen in my stomach. but the problem is very big, sorry for you son. Your life and that of your father will be in danger, but take it easy.. Mom will always be by your side and take care of you both.
