My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 1127

Ever since she was recognized by the family, Xena had never mentioned anything about money toAnna. Except for their family name, Xena dared not ask for anything else!

Since ancient times, all of the Yard superiors were twins. Now that Anna was the only high-rankingYard, Xena's identity as her twin was an extremely sensitive topic. This was because she too hadreasonable rights to the Yard Family's inheritance, but she knew that Anna would never give it toher. In fact, she was rather fearful of her sister's existence. Her good behavior was the only reasonshe was still alive right now.

However, if she started to ask for shares and the rights to her inheritance, it would be a futileattempt as Anna would undoubtedly make Xena disappear without a word.

Therefore, Xena had to prove herself at all costs, even if it meant killing Anne today!

Standing before Anna, she lashed out viciously at Anne.

However, up until now, Anne still did not know why Xena was lashing out at her.

She just wanted to have a part of their shares. Was that so wrong?

She grew up pampered and spoiled, so she had never suffered this badly before!

All this while, she led a carefree life, and Xena had never so much as chastised her before. So whywas she beating her now?!

Stubbornness overtook her, and Anne suddenly got up to grab the whip that had yet to lash out. Asher entire body trembled with pain, she raged against Xena. “What's so wrong with me wantingshares? Ronney Group is the Yard Family's property, and I'm a part of the family. I too haveinheritance rights! Why can’t I have some shares? Even that cat, General, has some shares! So, whycan't I have some? Why not? I'm obviously a direct descendant of the Yard Family, but Cooper'sb*stard daughter called me an outsider to my face, all because I have no shares! If I had someshares, Cooper would already be engaged to me! I can't take it! I cant! I want Ronney Group'sshares!”

At this moment, Callum came to give Anna some documents but had unexpectedly heard Anne'swords as soon as he walked into the office.

He shook his head and gave a low chuckle. She's so silly that it's pathetic!

He walked in and placed the stack of documents on Anna's desk.

Meanwhile, Xena was stunned by Anne's remarks.

She's going to bring the whole family trouble!

"You vile creature! I'll strangle you to death!”

Crazed by anger, Xena rushed forward and throttled Anne, leaving her no room for escape. Shechoked her until her eyes rolled back into her head.

Although Anne had been pampered and spoiled since young, she was only in her early twenties, soshe was much stronger than Xena—who was in her forties—and managed to choke her mother inreturn.

At this moment, Anna lifted her gaze. Callum immediately understood and dragged apart themother-daughter duo, who were still strangling each other.

The world turned quiet at once.

Anna silently read through the documents, flipping one page after another.

After all this time, she was still more used to reading stuff on paper.

The stack of documents contained all of Sophia“s personal information. They had found everythingthey could, including details that most people would not be able to replace.

Previously, Anna had roughly looked up Sophia's information, but it was not as detailed as this.Sophia's life before she was eighteen was terribly tragic. She worked hard and tried to change herlife through studying, but she was ill-fated and had even been molested as a child.

After the age of eighteen, her destiny took a sudden change. She got into Bayside University, whereshe excelled in her academics and career. During her time in school, she founded Plum TechnologyCo. Ltd., which was the predecessor of Plum Technology Group Co. Ltd.

At Bayside University, she was known as the smartest and prettiest girl, as well as the modelentrepreneur on campus. Besides that, she was the daughter of the Edwards Family and the MitchellFamily, and was also a member of the champion team of the Esports World Championship.

As Anna flipped through Sophia's life history, a glimmer of awe shone in her eyes.

It was as if she was watching a seed in the desert desperately trying to survive even thougheverything was extremely dry. Using its last bit of strength, it rolled forward; it was as insignificant asa grain of dust, but it had an unyielding soul. Even amidst all the dust, it knew that it was unique.Even though everything seemed hopeless, it still carried hope.

Sophia knew that she was not insignificant, nor was she a grain of dust. Even when she wassurrounded by dust, she kept her uniqueness.

Until one day, the light she was waiting for appeared, and she managed to replace fertile soil andwater. With their nourishment, she soon took root and grew into a towering tree with luxuriantleaves and roots that ran deep.

After reading Sophia's information, Anna set down her glasses and was about to speak when Callumsuddenly held up a picture and said, “Mom, look. The girl in this picture looks a lot like you.”

Anna studied the picture. Sophia was still young, around eighteen or nineteen years old, and shewas dressed in Bayside University’s uniform. With pearly-white teeth and bright, black eyes, shebore some resemblance to a younger Anna.

But ten years had passed, so her appearance had changed drastically. She was still a mixed-race girl,but her face had undergone surgery because of the injury she suffered. After all these years, herface had begun to look more and more westernized, but one could still vaguely see her originalfeatures.

“There is indeed some resemblance.”

The world was big, so it was nothing too strange.

A thought began to form in Anna's mind, and she wanted to talk about it with Callum, but at thismoment, a bodyguard brought Xena in.

Xena sobbed miserably. “It's all my fault. I've spoiled her too much since she was young, alwaysgiving her the best. Now she’s developed into a person that's unaware of proprieties. Don't take thechild's words to heart. I've already taught her a severe lesson. In the future, she won't dare to havesuch silly notions anymore.”

Louis had come in as well, and his heart tightened when he heard what Xena had just said.

He did not want to see his own twin daughters destroy each other, and Xena never had anyintentions of snatching anything from Anna anyway, so he hurried forward to mediate the situation.After all, Anne had been hospitalized by her own mother, and Anna did not wish to pursue thematter for the time being.

Fidgeting, Louis said, “I heard that your business had fallen through, but it's okay. I'll go talk toMikey.”

Anna did not want to continue cooperating with Sophia, but Sophia had gotten them stuck onsquare one. It was unfavorable for their development in Bayside City, so they did, in fact, needsomeone to act as a peacemaker.

Since Louis had volunteered, they decided to let him go

Eventually, Louis met with Michael. They were having tea when Louis brought up the matter.These days, Michael was busy with his own affairs, leaving home early and returning late, but heknew about the dispute between Anne and Sophia.

After the incident, Sophia's cooperation with the Yard Family was completely wrecked. Sophia didnot wish to have any contact with the Yards, but carrying on like this would not be good for eitherparty. Therefore, Louis acting as a mediator was a way out of this mess for both parties.

Now that Anne was hospitalized from being beaten up, Sophia“s anger had slowly melted away, soshe agreed to make a few calls. This led to several real estate agents contacting Anna to say thatthey would help her look for houses, but Cooper's property was off-limits.

It went without saying that this misunderstanding would be impossible to resolve.
