Chapter 1726

"Kids, if you're done, pack your stuff in the next ten minutes, and we're off to the hall." Rosalynn clapped her hands.

Once Molly and Liam arrived, they stashed their luggage in their assigned rooms.

Now, only Cory and Ivy hadn't sorted out their stuff.

Without much ado, Molly picked up Cory's suitcase and dumped it in his room.

Cory, engrossed in his book, noticed the commotion.

He looked up, closed his book and hurriedly said, "Thanks, Molly"

Molly waved him off, "Keep reading!"

She turned around to help Ivy.

Ivy was already struggling with her suitcase, dragging it into her room.

Liam was supervising from the side.

Once the hustle was over, Paige's voice echoed from the yard.

"Darlings, we're off to the hall!"

Rosalynn and Wayne quickly called the kids outside.

"Are you guys happy with your rooms?" asked Paige.

She got a mixed bag of responses.

Cory nodded.

Ivy's eyes sparkled as she nodded frantically, "It's great!"

Molly said, "It's okay."

Liam was a bit slow, but he agreed it was nice.

Paige looked at them, sighed and said, "You guys don't harmonize at all!"

Ivy was ecstatic, giggling as she clung to Paige's arm.

"Mr. Scott!"

Just then, the Scott family's butler approached.

"What is it?" Baillie shifted his gaze from his wife to the butler. His face turned cold.

"We have more guests,' the butler replied. "Relatives of Luna Baldie Scott" "Luna?" Baillie furrowed his brow.

Luna, wife of Newell Scott, came from a complicated family.

Her family, the Baldie family, was pretty well-known in the Norhaven area during her grandfather's time, but things went haywire when her father's generation had too many kids and her grandad passed away without leaving a will.

The inheritance dispute caused a four-year family feud.

Luna's father, being the youngest son, didn't get much.

For some reason, he listened to outsiders who claimed Luna and her mother would bring misfortune.

Baillie wasn't sure about the details.

In a nutshell, Luna and her mother were kicked out of the house for a while.

During this time, Luna's mother fell ill and passed away.

Perhaps to avoid gossip, Luna's father took back Luna, who was only seven or eight years old.

By then, there was a young and beautiful lady of the house.

Two years later, the stepmother had a daughter, and a son the following year.

The stepmother had always been unkind to Luna, but her attitude worsened after having her own kids.

When Luna was twelve, Luna's grandmother came to visit her.

What she saw was a scarred Luna who had dropped out of school.

Luna's grandmother, a tough lady, went to the Baldie family and took Luna away.

She then started a snack stall, saved up bit by bit and eventually sent Luna to a prestigious overseas school.
