Pool the money and pay the bill tom efore the hospital starts asking for it.” “Dad, have you spent all ofyour money?” The oldest son of thefamily asked.
Old Mr.Hunt glared at him.
"What? Not happy to pay? Do you think your mom and I can afford to bum through cash like this? Howmany of you contributed since your momfell sick? Your mom and I raised you and helped you to settledown.
Now that your mom is sick, shouldn't you pay the medical fees?” The oldest son immediately retorted,“Dad, we’re not saying that we won’tpay, but we don't know how much it's going to cost in total.
The hospital stay has been hemorrhaging cash for the past few days.” Even though they were quitewelloff now, their mother's hospitalization was bleeding them dry.novelbin

I don't care how you do it, but the only way you can back out from paying is by getting Serenity to pickup the tab.”.
