Chapter 593
This was the mindset of the older generation. They believed the inheritance should stay in the family byleaving them to the sons and grandsons as daughters would only grow up to marry into another family.
For families without a direct descendant to bequeath the inheritance to, fellow townspeople would beeyeing the property.
They would keep the wealth in the town.
Many were unwilling to leave their hard–earned assets to someone who did not carry the family name.Hence, they would try to bring a son into the family.
“Are you talking about John Hunt by chance?”
John’s name rang a bell as he was once a senior executive at one of the Stones‘ subsidiaries. Johnmade a million dollars annually.
For John to earn a huge chunk of change from the Stones, to push around her nieces, and to take overher sister’s property, Mrs. Stone could not say he left a good impression.
She needed to get Clive to go hard on John so the latter would not be able to even make a living out ofbegging in the streets.
“That’s right. My grandparents absolutely adore him since he’s the most promising out of all thegrandchildren. They even named him the adopted son of my parents so he has rights to my parents‘assets.
“My sister and I plan to take back our parents‘ home after New Year’s. I’d rather sell the place than giveit to them!”
It would entail another lawsuit.
Although the New Year was around the corner, Serenity had not taken action yet due to her sister’srecent divorce.
The property left behind by her parents was built in the early 90s. The house itself was not worth a lotof money, but the land was. The residence was built on a land of several hundred square yards.
While her parents were alive, they bought land from others and added yards to their residential land.
Mom once told her and Liberty that the land could be split in two for two houses to be built when theygrew up and made it out on their own. That way, the sisters would stay close to help and take care ofone another.
“That’s bullsh*t! My sister’s property should be inherited by her daughter, not her nephew. Don’t worry,Seren. I’ll help you take back your parents‘ home.
“Ah, do you have the title deed to the property?”
“All we have is a land use permit, and it’s with my sister. My sister was smart enough to steal the landuse permit when we were kicked out of the house.”
Serenity was only ten back then, so that was the least of her problems.
She was at a loss for losing her parents so suddenly. All she did was cry. Thank goodness her sisterwas there for her.
Due to the trending news on Twitter, Mrs. Stone learned about the conflict between the sisters and therest of the Hunts.
Nevertheless, Mrs. Stone’s heart still bled for the girls when Serenity talked about the past.
A fifteen–year–old and a ten–year–old had no means to secure their parents‘ insurance payout andassets. against their greedy relatives. They were forced to go out into the world with only each other.
Mrs. Stone found out from her daughter that Serenity married in a haste. Apparently, Serenity wentdown. that road to give her sister confidence and move out of her sister’s place.
Others might not understand why Serenity did what she did, but Mrs. Stone could.
The sisters only had each other for more than a decade, and as the older sister, Liberty was used towatching out for her little sister. Even though Serenity was all grown up and had the earning ability torent a place, Liberty did not feel comfortable about it. Liberty’s mind could only be at ease if her sisterstayed close by her side.
The only way Liberty could get peace of mind was if her sister married someone who could take overLiberty’s job.
This was the real reason behind Serenity’s sudden marriage.
It would be hard to understand the reasoning behind Serenity’s drastic measure to opt for marriage inorder to move out of her sister’s place without getting into the bond the sisters had forged throughoutthe years.
“It makes things easier that you have proof in hand.”
Mrs. Stone patted Serenity’s hand. “Don’t worry, I will get justice for you.”
“Aunt Audrey, my sister and I can get our parents‘ house back.”
Her grandparents did not have full rights to her parents‘ estate. In short, there was no way they couldtake over the entire property.
At first, the sisters planned to wait until the grandparents were dead before taking back the house.
It never occurred to Serenity that her absurd relatives would try to start something.
She should move the legal battle ahead then.
