Chapter 1021
“Serenity, Liberty, you came back just in time. What’s this about? I’m telling you, the moment you left this house and this town, the house and fields belonged to us.
“My son left this house for us. The property belongs to us, so we can give it to whoever we want, but we won’t give it to you since you’re married into other families.”
Old Mrs. Hunt felt slightly guilty when she saw the sisters bringing many people over. When she was in the hospital, she had heard about how incredible Serenity had become. Now, she also knew that Serenity soared to the top and became the missus of a wealthy family.
This made Old Mrs. Hunt a little guilty. After all, she and her husband had forcibly occupied the house. Back then, taking advantage of the fact that the sisters were still underage and incapable, she even kicked them out.
Serenity was only about twelve years old when she and her sister were booted out.
After Serenity and Liberty were thrown out of the house, they would return to the town in the first few years to visit their parents‘ graves. They also tried to live in their parents‘ house again but were beaten and scolded by their grandparents with thick canes. The sisters were hit so hard that they did not dare return for a few years.
The two parties lost contact after that. It was not until Liberty was getting married did her grandparents receive the news and shamelessly ask the Browns for a betrothal gift of 300,000 dollars. Even so, Liberty refused and disallowed the Browns from fulfilling the request. She also shooed her grandparents away.
Following that, there was no news from their grandparents for about three more years.
When Old Mrs. Hunt fell ill, nobody wanted to pay for the medical expenses, so they remembered Serenity and Liberty. They thought the sisters were doing well, so they reconnected with them.
Old Mrs. Hunt knew they had gone too far and that the people in town could not stand them. That said, those people did not dare offend her because she was feisty, shameless, and immoral.
Now that her interests were involved, Old Mrs. Hunt unleashed her shamelessness to the fullest again.
“I’ve never seen married daughters returning to their parents‘ home to fight for a house,” Old Mrs. Hunt muttered.
When she was coldly stared at by Zachary, she stopped yelling and mumbled softly instead.
