Chapter 977
Jessica’s explanation only drove fear in Oscar. “Jessica, she’s well connected. It won’t go unnoticed if we hired a few hooligans to stir trouble. Her relatives are wealthy and powerful. They’re not people we can mess with.
“Did you say that her brother–in–law is the heir of the wealthiest York family? All the more reason to stay away from them. Don’t you know how the Yorks are? We’ve heard of the family even though we live in a rural area. Forget it. A hundred thousand dollars isn’t worth me taking the risk.”
Jessica winced her face. “I’m your sister, Oscar. So you’re going to let it go when someone is making my life a living hell?”
Oscar replied, “How is she making your life a living hell? I mean, you lied to us. Hank had a wife and a son when he was with you, but you became his mistress and wrecked his family apart. You kept that fact from us. Here we were, thinking you found yourself a good man.
“Do you think I don’t know you well? I bet you’re the one picking on the Liberty girl. If nothing else, you were the homewrecker. You should feel ashamed of yourself instead of trying to get even with her.
“It’s hard enough for a single mother to run a business, but you want to take away her only livelihood. I’ll stick up for you if she bullied you, but did she though?
“The huge settlement she got out of the divorce is between her and Hank. The Brown family isn’t to be blamed for Hank’s refusal to give us over seven hundred thousand dollars. You’re only looking out for Hank, so you don’t want to waste the money on me and Jack to fix our houses up and buy new cars.
“We doted on you for nothing. What did we get out of your marriage? Hank only gave a lot less than a hundred thousand dollars for Mom and Dad’s retirement. Jack and I got nothing. I would do anything you ask if you bought us a car and house.”
At the end of the day, Oscar believed his sister gave him crumbs. Whatever he got from his sister was not worth the risk of offending the York and Stone families.

Finally we are here, thank you for progress in this story. Well done 👏 ✔ 👍 👌...
A big change is happening to the story now. 6 years had past. Looking forward on where this story revolves. Hoping the story will be as good as before. Now focusing on the younger brothers but hoping to include the older characters. Thanks writer and interpreter for maintaining and using the English names....
Thank you writer and interpreter for bringing back and writing in English names...
Stop deleting my comments...
I feel like I betrayed this site caus I had to go to novel drama to continue this novel... They have the real thing there from chapter 182...
I'm seeing Vivian, bill, Julie, maria... Who are these ?...
Need English names, makes the whole story hard to follow....
Please go back to english names. Its been too long that we are reading this novel commitedly. Its like a torture to your loyal readers who can not focus on the story after living with the characters for so long. Please change your interpreter....
Please, please go back to original characters and stop with the repetitive pages. Furthermore the missing chapters from 4389-4412 are still missing. This stopping and starting is getting old. You going to lose all your readers...
Can you hire back the original interpreter or the ones who knows the original name? I think the current interpreter does not want to exert effort on studying the previous names. Please satisfy your readers. We have read the story for a long time. We are patronizing you for this long....
