Chapter 1023
Serenity sneered, “When my parents just died 16 years ago, we got 1.2 million dollars in compensation. You and Granddad along with your children and grandchildren crowded our house to the point where we didn’t even have a place to stand.
“You forced me and my sister to hand over the money, saying that you had a share of it. It’s true that you and Granddad had a share of the money, but how much did you take?
“Back then, in order to get more money from my parents‘ insurance payout, you stated that Liberty and I don’t need to support you on behalf of our father while you’re alive, and that we don’t need to hold funerals for you when you pass. We don’t need to sustain you in life and bury you in death. It was written in black and white..
“Perhaps you’ve destroyed your copy, but the other copy is well–kept by Liberty. I believe the town committee has also kept a copy. The townspeople who were witnesses are still here today. Should we ask them to confront you?
“Does the house belong to you? My dad’s name is still written on the title deed. You and Granddad indeed have a share of what my parents left behind, but you can’t inherit everything. Liberty and I have a share of those things too!
“As for what you said about adopting a son for my parents, did they agree to it? Has John called my parents Dad and Mom? He’s still calling his parents Dad and Mom! Did you think that by stopping us from visiting our parents‘ graves and letting him pay his respect to them every year qualify him for the entirety of my parents‘ inheritance?
“In your dreams!”
Serenity added coldly, “Grandmom, go ahead and call Granddad and the others back. Liberty and I returned today for our parents‘ inheritance. Call them back so we can split everything clearly!
“Again, we won’t yield if they belong to us, and we won’t fight for what doesn’t belong to us!”
“Serenity!”
