NovelApp"Mom, Jun’s condition is under control. All he needs to do is follow the doctor's orders and take his medication regularly. There would be no side effects," Tammy said on his behalf.
"How could there be no side effects in eating medicine daily? Didn't the doctors tell you about it?" Hilda's voice was not loud, but she had a hint of complaint in her tone. "I contacted a doctor abroad for Jun. | heard that they could completely cure depression." Tammy laughed dryly, "How have | not heard about doctors being able to completely cure depression before? Other than medication and controlling one's emotions, there is no other cure. If the doctor you found is so great, he would have been world- famous." Hilda said, "There are many things that you haven't heard before. If you know about everything, you would have been world- famous too." The daughter-in-law and mother-in-law did not see eye to eye and started arguing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mom, don't get worked up. Be careful of your blood pressure.” Jun started patting his mother's back. At the stime, he spoke on behalf of Tammy, "Tammy is not wrong too. | have never heard about modern medicine completely curing depression. Tammy's tummy is also growing bigger. | have to care for her. | can’t go abroad to get treatment. We'll talk about it after the child is born!" "I knew you would say that," Hilda sighed. She took out a few bottles of medicine from her bag. "I got that specialist to prescribe this medicine. Have a try to see if it works.
If it works, you can eat this medicine." Jun's expressions instantly changed. Tammy was extremely nervous. The Lynchs knew that Jun was faking his depression, so they were worried for him too.
"Jun, don't think that your mother is being a meddler. You have been spoiled since young. You don’t understand our love for you.
Your mother has been naggingabout your depression every day. She's afraid that you might dump us and leave one day," Harold said bitterly.
Jun scratched his head awkwardly. How could he not know about his parents’ love for him? If he was truly depressed, he would have accepted the bottle of medicine. He would even eat it in front of them.
"Jun, why don't you take one now? | heard that the medicine does wonders," Hilda urged. "One pill costs one hundred :h+=RIR; fifty dollars!" Jun was bewildered. "One hundred and fifty dollars for one pill?" "Yes! These few bottles cost more than ten thousand dollars!" Harold said. "Take one and see if it works or not. If it works—" "Dad, Mom, I'm not having any terminal illness. Why did you spend so much on the medicine?" Jun felt as if his parents had been conned.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTammy was more direct. She raised her doubts. "Have you all been conned? Jun is not having a terminal illness. What sort of medication costs one hundred and fifty dollars per pill? Tellthe doctor's contact. I'll go check up on him." Jun's parents’ expressions immediately darkened.
"Tammy, don't speak so harshly," Harold said. "It's just slightly more than ten thousand dollars. When your mother shops for a bag, it is also around this price. Even if we have been conned, so has your mother. | think that whoever pays for something that is not worth the price is being conned.” Tammy was amused. Harold said that she spoke harshly, but were his words not harsh as well? Jun sighed and said to Hilda, "Mom, I've had my medicine today. I'll take them tomorrow. Tammy needs her nap. Letsend you off." Hilda's face turned blue. "Jun, do you think that your father and | can't see if you have sickness or not? You join up with outsiders to lie to us. Don't you feel guilty?" Jun was instantly timid.
Tammy was frantic. She felt her husband was about to receive a beating! "Ouch. My tummy hurts!" she suddenly yelled, causing everyone in the house to jump! Jun immediately ran over to her and picked her up.
"Hubby, taketo the room to rest for a while." Tammy secretly winked at him, in case he really thought that her tummy was hurting.
How could Hilda not guess that this was one of Tammy's tricks? However, seeing how much her son cared for her, she felt that even if she were to continue putting up a fuss, it would not end well.
