“See? The old woman in your family is facing retribution now. She’s sick, right? You don’t have to seek treatment for her. She’ll die anyway even if she gets treated. She can meet her maker earlier and apologize to your son and daughter–in–law.”
Mrs. Brown and Chelsea were sharp–tongued. Their scolding had Old Mr. Hunt jump to beat. people up.
Mr. Brown and Hank stepped forward and stopped him from moving.
Old Mr. Hunt pointed his finger at Mrs. Brown and scolded, “It’s none of your business. Who do you think you are? It’s none of your concern. You, a Brown, have nothing to do with. the Hunt family’s matter.
“A married daughter is like splashed water. The sisters were the ones who shamelessly came back to fight for property. Do you divide and give any property to your daughter? You leave them all to your son as well. Look at you talking.”
Chelsea said loudly, “I got married to a capable husband. I have a house, a car, and savings. I gave up my inheritance to my younger brother. I was the one who gave it to him, do you understand? Serena and Liberty never said anything about giving their parents‘ assets to you guys. You’re just bullying them because they lost their parents.
“How could you still say you’re family? The sisters are so unlucky to have a family member like you. You clearly said they neither need to support you while you’re alive nor bury you when you die. However, you would get Serena to run even the most minor errands and shamelessly ask for money after seeing her living a good life.
“Serena, listen to me. Don’t even give them a penny no matter how much money you have. You can live a good life with your sister and exasperate them. They’ve been using money obtained through your parents‘ death. Just wait and watch karma do its job.
“The heavens are still looking at us from above. Listen, you old man. What comes around goes around. It’s just a matter of time. No one will be there to help you when your punishment comes.
“Get lost, you shameless b*stards! Serena, bring your store’s brooms and mops out for me. I’ll help you chase these shameless old b*stards away.”
Serena and Jasmine’s actions were swift. One took a broom while the other took the mop.
Chelsea and her mother immediately took the broom and mop. They then raised the broom and mop high and started hitting Old Mr. Hunt and the rest. They were not scaring them but actually beating them. The broom in Mrs. Brown’s hand hit Old Mr. Hunt’s face. continuously regardless of his old age.
The York family’s bodyguards enjoyed watching the fight.
They appeared to not be doing anything, but they would actually help Chelsea and Mrs.
Brown whenever there was a chance. With that, the mother and daughter gained the upper hand. They held the broom and mop high, chasing Old Mr. Hunt and his group far away. They only stopped to catch their breaths when they got tired from running.
After some time, they returned with their makeshift weapons.
“Serena, if they ever bully you or demand something from you using their seniority again, just give me a call. I’ll come over and help you to chase them all out!” Chelsea said viciously upon entering and returning the broom to Serena.
Serena poured a glass of warm water for Chelsea and Mrs. Brown. “Have some water, Chelsea, Mrs. Brown. Thank you for getting rid of them for me.”
She was not afraid of the people from her family.
However, having someone get angry on behalf of her and chase those evil people out made her happy and relieved.
Extreme people had to be handled by other people of the same type.
“Their car hasn’t left yet.”
Chelsea said, “Get me a knife, Serena. I’m going to puncture his car’s tires.”
Serena was about to laugh.
She had punctured all four tires of John’s car last time and had someone tow it away.
John drove it over again today. It seemed like he had not learned his lesson.
“Forget it. I’ll get it myself. There’s a knife in the kitchen, right?” Chelsea said as she we into the kitchen.
Soon, she came out with a sharp knife looking aggressive.
Chelsea walked outside and went to John’s car. She aimed her knife and punctured all four tires.
Once done, she brought the knife back into the store, washed it clean, and placed it back in its original position.
Before she left, she even said to Serena, “I punctured his car tires. If he wants. compensation, tell them they can find me as much as they want.
“We won’t be disturbing your business, Serena. We’ll be heading home now.”
The Browns left very quickly.
Elisa only released Sonny after silence returned to the bookstore. However, she realized he had fallen asleep in her embrace. She found it funny and said to Serena, “Sonny actually fell asleep.”
Serena carried her nephew, placed him on the small bed, and covered him with a blanket.
“I never had a good feeling about the Browns, but I feel like they finally did something good.” Elisa had watched the scene and was pleased with it.
Jasmine said with a smile, “This is called evil people being tamed by the same kind.”
Serena smiled too. “My granddad tricked Sonny’s grandmom for her money and she couldn’t get it back. They’ve been enemies since then. The fact that they met today proved that one cannot avoid their enemies in this small world.”
She took her phone and called someone to tow John’s car away. She hated that his car was stranded at her store’s entrance and taking up space. It would affect her if she had to head out.
“Seren, they probably came today to tell you that your dad wasn’t their biological child. They want you two to give up on fighting for the property. How’s the lawsuit preparation going? If everything’s ready, you can sue them for occupying your property by force.”
“I’m waiting for a result.”
Old Mr. Hunt even went as far as to say that Serena’s father was not his biological child to fight for the property. She would use the truth to shut them up.
She could file a lawsuit after the DNA test results between Old Mr. Hunt and her were out.
“Besides saying that my dad wasn’t their biological child, they might be here to negotiate with my sister and me. If negotiation is possible, I’m willing to do it too. I won’t have to waste time fighting a lawsuit.”
Serena had already guessed that her father’s family would continue making a fuss.
Of course, they knew that making a fuss was not the solution–only a negotiation could solve the problem.
When the DNA test results were out, it would shut their mouths that were spreading rumors and damper their confidence. Only then would they be able to sit down and have a negotiation. The sisters would not give up on anything rightfully theirs to inherit.
“What results?” Elisa asked out of curiosity.
“After you told me they were spreading rumors in my hometown saying that my dad wasn’t their biological child, Zack and I came up with a countermeasure. We used Noah to pluck several strands of my granddad’s hair. I tested his DNA with mine. The results should be out in these two days.”
Elisa smiled and said, “Not bad. Silence them with evidence and truth.”
Jasmine asked her friend, “Serena, if, I’m saying IF your dad really wasn’t their biological son, will you sisters still fight for the property?”
“Us inheriting our parents‘ property and whether my dad was their biological child are two different matters. Actually, the rumors they’re spreading are utterly useless. They’ll only be a laughingstock to others.”
It disappointed Serena and Liberty as well as aggravated the conflict between the parties involved.
A ringtone was heard.
It was Serena’s phone.
Her instincts told her that it was her husband’s call.
When she took her phone out, it was really Zack who was calling.
