Walking on the cold street, Harriet Smith felt that her ears were almost frozen. It was surprisingly cold today!
The phone vibrated. It was a message from Sophia Scott, Harriet's mother, who said that they had already traveled back and the train arrived at 10 o'clock in the morning.
After hanging up the phone, she went to school in a hurry. Yesterday, it happened so suddenly without asking for leave. She must have to deal with the aftermath!
The principal was reasonable and just warned her to be careful in the future.
She agreed one by one. She took another day off, and the principal did not say anything and agreed.
After breakfast, Harriet Smith went to the train station in a hurry. The train was temporarily late. It took 40 minutes to see them.
When they got closer, she could hear Sophia Scott's complaint. "The train is late every time. My waist is in pain now."
Henry Smith just smiled and said, "I asked you to take the high-speed train, but you refused. The treatment of spending more than half of the money is different. It's fast, the environment is good and comfortable."
Harriet Smith took the suitcase from Henry Smith and supported Sophia Scott with one hand. "Mom and Dad, let's go to the KFC next to us. I have something to tell you."
She didn't intend to tell her parents about the house. After all, they were old and in poor health. She was afraid that they couldn't bear it.
But now Lucas Smith couldn't count on him at all. She couldn't solve it alone, so she could only tell the truth.
After ordering three cups of coffee, Harriet Smith hesitated for a moment before telling them what Vera Brion had done.
Upon hearing that the house had been sold, Sophia Scott's body shook due to the impact. Henry Smith, who was standing by the side, quickly supported her, and his face and breathing became heavy.
After a long while, Henry Smith said, "Forget it!"
"Dad!!" Harriet Smith couldn't believe what she had heard!
"That house was bought by your grandfather for your brother, and your brother's name was written on the property ownership certificate. He can do whatever he wants."
Harriet Smith's breathing became rapid. "Dad, look what Vera Brion did! Are you so indulgent that you don't care?"
"What am I supposed to do? I can teach my son a lesson, but what about the daughter-in-law?" Henry Smith let out a long sigh. "When your brother married her, I didn't agree. In the end, they eloped and sought death. I couldn't even control them back then, let alone now."
"So, just pretend that nothing happened?" Harriet Smith felt that it was absurd!
"Your brother only listens to Vera Brion, and now that she sold the house, he won't even say a word. "
Henry Smith looked at Harriet Smith and said, "How could I not know her personality? To be honest, I'm not counting on her supporting your mother and me in old age. Now that the house has been sold and she has taken the money. In the future, we will live together. And they will live together. I never count on your brother ..."
Harriet Smith was so angry that her nails had sunk into the tender flesh in her palms, but what could she do?
"Once Vera Brion takes the money, you'll never get it back!!"
"Dad, I agree. I can also find a house, but I have one request!"
"Harriet, go ahead."
"Vera Brion will definitely come again. At that time, if she dares to step into the house, I will dozen her all over the ground search tooth. Neither of you can stop me, and neither of you can protect her!" She gritted her teeth, saying word by word.
Henry Smith and Sophia Scott nodded in agreement.
Harriet Smith suppressed the raging flames in her chest and called Miss Farson, asking Miss Farson to help find a suite.
