Chapter 87:-for-tat

Lip first went back to the basement of No. 2, checked the work of the bitcoin mining machine, cut the bitcoin address and password mined into the USB flash drive hanging around his neck, practiced the guitar for a while, and waited until ten o'clock, came out of the basement, and went to the fitness equipment in the backyard to exercise.

Sweating profusely, he walked into the Gallagher House through the back door, wanting to take a shower upstairs, and just pushed open the door, he was caught off guard to see Frank and Monica doing indescribable things at the dinner table.

Lip quickly twisted his head to the side, closed his eyes, retracted half a step towards the threshold, and brought the door fiercely, and scolded outside the door, "Fake! are you not! ...... at the table."

Frank's triumphant voice came from behind the door, "This is my house, I can do it wherever I want!"

Monica was knocked over by Lip, and she was a little embarrassed and wanted to stop her behavior at the moment, but she was teased by the rising Frank a few times, and she was immersed in it, ignoring it.

As Frank moved, he said to Monica, "My mom had a sum of money in her hand before she died. ”

When Monica heard this, she pricked up her ears, "How many?"

"Seventy-five thousand dollars!" Frank said.

"I want, I want! I want this money!" Monica said.

"Don't worry, I'll get the money!" Frank said.

In fact, Frank had searched Grandma Peggy's room at Gallagher House, and found no money, so he determined that the money was taken to Jackson's house by Grandma Peggy and hid there, so he made an agreement with Monica that tonight, taking advantage of the night, he would go into Jackson's house and find out the money.

Lip fled from Gallagher's house in a fit of rage, returned to the next door at No. 2, went upstairs to take a shower, change his clothes, and go out to find a place to have lunch, and by the way to buy something for Grandma Peggy's memorial service.

In the obituary letters to several uncles, Lip left his own phone number, and in the afternoon, Lip received calls from two uncles, the other may not be at home and did not receive the obituary letter in time, and Lip did not plan to wait for him.

In the evening, Lip was called by Fiona to go to dinner, and when he saw Frank, who was sitting at the table with a dignified face and looked like the head of the family, Lip couldn't even get angry, picked up the plate, sandwiched some food, and instead of sitting down at the table, he stood in front of the kitchen counter, chewing tastelessly.

Fiona saw his unusual behavior and asked curiously, "Lip, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing!" Lip couldn't tell the truth, thinking of what Frank and Monica had done at the table, and Lip didn't want to go any closer to the table.

Frank guessed the reason for Lip's unusual behavior, and didn't care at all, but disgusted Lip and complacent, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

Monica's shamelessness was far from being compared to Frank's, with an embarrassed look on her face.

Lip took two bites, and it was hard to swallow, so he pushed the plate and said, "I don't have an appetite, you can eat!" With that, he turned and pulled the door out, and climbed up the ladder to the top of the building, blowing the night breeze to distract himself.

After a while, Fiona climbed up the ladder as well, handed Lip a bottle of beer, and said to him, "I know, you don't want Monica to stay, but she's our mom after all, and Debbie and Carl need her." ”

"Then they'll have to get used to being without Monica as soon as possible!" Lip said.

"I actually hope that Monica can stay this time and help me take some of the responsibility of taking care of Debbie, Carl, and Liam. Fiona said.

"I just hope she doesn't mess up this house! Lip said.

Fiona also knew that the situation that Lip said was the most likely to happen, and when she thought of this, she could only sigh deeply.

After dinner, Frank threw the finishing touches to Fiona in the name of enjoying the world of the two, and dragged Monica to the Elebo Bar.

Monica is the one who knows Frank best, and the death of Grandma Peggy has affected him more than he appears on the surface.

Frank has a bit of Stockholm syndrome psychology for Grandma Peggy, and he is both afraid and loving Grandma Peggy, afraid of performance, and love is hidden deep in his subconscious.

The reason why Monica came back with Frank this time was not only to hear that Grandma Peggy had died, but also to think about the impact this incident would have on several children, and wanted to help them get through this difficulty, and more importantly, to help Frank get through this pass in his heart.

Monica was able to entangle with Frank for decades and give him five children, and there must be love for him, although the love in her heart has long been worn out with time, and there is not much left, and it has disappeared.

However, although the United States does not have the saying "one day husband and wife for one hundred days", there will still be deep ties between former lovers.

In addition, Frank is not useless, he is still very good at eating, drinking, and sweet-talking, and Monica eats him very much.

The two of them were slightly drunk at the Elebo Bar, and when the bar closed, they were still not satisfied, so they called their friends, called a few people, and returned to the Gallagher House to continue the party.

At this time, it was close to midnight, Fiona was already asleep upstairs, but was woken up by the noise downstairs, and went downstairs angrily, and when she saw the scene of the demons dancing in the living room, she was so angry that she clenched her teeth, rushed over to turn off the stereo, and yelled at Frank, "Please, I have to go to work tomorrow, Ian has to go to school, and Liam needs to rest, please be quiet, okay?"

"This is my house! I can do whatever I want here, it's not your turn!" replied Frank forcefully.

"Is this really your house? Have you paid the annual property tax? Have you paid the monthly electricity and gas bills? Why do you have the face to say that this is your house?" said Fiona.

"I don't care so much! I'm your dad, and I'm the only one in charge of you, not you!" Frank said.

"You've voluntarily given up our custody a long time ago, and if you continue to make trouble like this, we'll ask the judge to strip you of your parental authority!" Fiona threatened.

"I gave up your custody by force, it was not my intention! And you can't take away my parental rights! I am your father, and the blood relationship can never be separated!" Frank said.

"Your guardianship was sold by you for six thousand dollars, and when you signed the declaration of voluntary relinquishment of guardianship, you didn't drink or take @ drugs, you were very sober, and we didn't force you at all!" Fiona said in a deep voice.

"As for parental authority, if I tell the judge everything you have done over the years, do you think the judge will make a judgment in your favor?"
