Woman Saves Money to Provide for Two Children, but in Her Old Age They Kick Her Out of House — Story of the Day

“Can you save her doctor?” Todd Wilson asked the doctor who was about to carry out a C–section on his wife.

“Your wife will be perfectly fine, Mr. Wilson, just leave it to me,” the doctor said before disappearing into the room.

Half an hour later, Todd heard the cries of his children and knew they had arrived. The doctor had saved his wife and kids, leaving a powerful impression on the simple man.

Olive, his wife, returned home with him, and they became proud parents of their twin sons, whom they named Cole and Elijah.

The couple was uneducated; Olive dropped out after getting pregnant with the twins, and her husband had always been a rancher. They lived peacefully on a medium-sized ranch where Elijah practiced different modes of farming, including animal husbandry. Because they never got educated, Olive and her husband wanted nothing more for their boys.

You’ll both grow up to be doctors,” Todd said as soon as he lifted them in his arms for the first time. As far as he was concerned, saving another human life was a very noble profession, so his children would become nothing else but doctors.

Olive lived as a housewife with her husband, never lacking anything while raising their two boys. They both worked tirelessly to make sure their children could become doctors.

When Todd passed away during a buffalo stampede, Olive was left on her own to fend for the two boys who were already teenagers by then. Hard times quickly fell upon them, and they started getting offers from other ranchers for the land.

To get by, Olive started working as a maid in a wealthy man’s house. It was all her skill set could afford her, but she was very diligent with the job, keeping the whole mansion sparkling clean while slowly warming her into the older man’s heart.

He liked her dedication and kindness, which made him pay her a little extra each time he could. All the money she made, Olive put into her savings which she used to sponsor their schooling.

She did that for years until they entered college to study medicine, just like Olive and her late husband had wanted. The children did not care very much about saving lives; however, they did not want to disappoint their parents, so they played along.

Things changed when they were approached by one of the wealthy ranchers who wanted to buy their father’s property. He fed them with words that made them desire the amount of money he was offering for the property, and they took it all in, hook, line and sinker.

At some point, the rancher even paused in his speech to look around their room in disgust, making sure they could see his expression. “You could both be living in luxury and not have to work for a long time with the money you stand to receive from selling that property to us,” the man said.

His words had a significant impact on the boys, and all they could do after the rancher left was fantasize about the life they knew could be theirs.

“We should go home to discuss this with mother,” Elijah said to his brother, who agreed wholeheartedly.

At home, they greeted their mother but held off on telling her the reason for their visit until they sat down to dinner that day.

“Mom, we have something to tell you,” Cole said uneasily. The boys both knew their mother would not agree to their proposal, but they were bent on having their way.
