Chapter 1690
“Ma’am, have you thought it through? Are you truly going to give up such a big sum of money?” The young man felt that it was a pity for the old lady.The old lady was not a person who was greedy for money. She also knew that the staff was just trying to seek justice for her. However, the old lady had already figured it all out within a few minutes. She was alone, and she still had to take care of her grandson in the future. Even if she forcibly took it to court to ask for the four hundred thousand dollars, it was anyone’s guess whether it could truly be executed in the end. She had no energy to take on such a long lawsuit. Besides, Neo had an extensive social network. The accommodation for the faculty members was filled with his colleagues and relatives.However, what about her? Her only son was still in prison. She had no way to truly take back those four hundred thousand dollars at that moment. Since she already knew she could not take that money back, she also did not want to wast
Chapter 1691
She was truly disgusted by this inhumane thing! Neo, on the other hand, called out behind the old lady “Ceci-Cecilia…you…”He seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. As he walked out of the city hall, he seemed to be as old as a seventy years old man. His wife had left him. In the future, he would be left all alone at home, then who would cook for him? Who would take care of him? His children? All of his sons did not know how to take care of others, and their wives certainly would not take care of him. What about his daughters? Was it not highly improper to have his daughters serve him so closely?It was best to have his partner, but she did not even turn her head around and take another glance at him. At that moment, Neo unexpectedly was covered in tears. “Cecilia…don’t leave.”The old lady actually heard Neo’s cry. However, what has that got to do with her? They were already divorced. She would never be anybody’s nanny for free anymore and be scolded by others. From then onwa

Habitual thief?Hana looked at her aunt. “Aunt Cecilia, are you a thief?”Cecilia’s face was flustered when she saw the person who came. “Stefan, it seems that you knew I took the fifty thousand dollars in the house?”Among the people who came looking for the old lady, the person in the forefront was Neo’s eldest son, Stefan. He pointed at the old lady. “You shameless old woman with sticky fingers! You actually stole money from your own house! It’s true that it’s difficult to guard against a thief in the family! Listening to the way you speak, you’re admitting that you stole my father’s fifty thousand dollars?”The old lady blushed but remained calm. “I took it. I didn’t steal it. Indeed, I have taken the fifty thousand dollars from the house.”As soon as she said that, Hana looked at her with her eyes widened. “Aunt Cecilia, you...this kind of thing…how can you do such a thing? How can you be like this?”Stefan sneered. “D*mned old woman! Even your niece is criticizing you this
Chapter 1693
Even if he was Neo’s biological son, he was not very willing to take care of the old man, especially to help him answer nature’s call. The best way to take care of the old man was to let him have a partner. He did have a partner, and she had only divorced him a month ago. Neo’s children were so furious when they thought of the old lady, who had abandoned their father and even stole fifty thousand dollars from the house, that they desperately hoped that they could let her face the most severe punishment.They had searched for a very long time and had even inquired about the old lady from her neighbors in her hometown. After a month of searching, they finally found the old lady at her niece’s house. Actually, their true purpose was to let the old lady take care of the old man. That way, it would be less of a hassle for the entire Dixon family. However, they also knew that the old lady was very resolute when she divorced the old man, so it was not quite possible for her to return. It so
Chapter 1694
Moving away was simply just to avoid Stefan and his siblings from coming over again. Hana could tell that the main purpose for them coming over was not to let her aunt pay them back. Although it was not quite honorable for her aunt to take the fifty thousand dollars in the house, she truly did not break the law. Even if they were to go to the police, no one could say that she had stolen the money. The greatest purpose for them to find her aunt was to let her continue taking care of the old man.Of course, her Aunt Cecilia would not leave with them. After ten years of hard work starting from when she was forty-six years old to the year she became fifty-six years old, her aunt was already incredibly old and gray. Those ten years of her life after being remarried had taken a toll on her aunt. She absolutely could not go back anymore.Hana was a very efficient person. They moved out within a day after she said they were moving away. However, after they had just settled in the new house,
Chapter 1695
In the end, the old lady was so backed into the corner that she was slightly buying into the idea of going with the flow. She turned to Hana. “Why don’t I just go and serve that old d*mned thing?”“Aunt Cecilia, we can always figure something out. The Dixon family is threatening us, and they will not get away with it. In a few days, after I have finished the business at hand, I will accompany you to report the case,” said Hana to her aunt, frowning.The old lady could tell that Hana seemed to have something on her mind, so she asked, “Hana, what happened?”Hana did not hide the matter from her aunt as well, she simply said, “Aunt Cecilia, I have witnessed my daughter, Tessa, following my footsteps. She actually is in a relationship with a man who is ten years older than her. That man is indeed rich, but he is a playboy in South City. He was ignorant and incompetent when he was younger. How can I let Tessa walk into such a dangerous situation? I must stop Tessa.”In the few days aft

When Aino said that, both Zayn and Hana felt extremely awkward. It was particularly so for Hana. She blushed suddenly, then she squatted and looked at Aino very apologetically. “Aino, you are a good child. I know that you’re very kind, and you care a lot for me, right? However, I…I am already very old, so I am not…compatible with your uncle. Besides, your uncle and my daughter truly love each other. As long as they love each other wholeheartedly and as long as your uncle treats my daughter well, as a mother, I will certainly give them my blessings. You should also wish them happiness and contentment together, alright?”Aino instantly began to tear up. “Madam Sharpe, are you not going to get yourself a boyfriend anymore?”Hana smiled. “I am already in my forties this year, why should I find myself a boyfriend?”There was a pause before her tone suddenly became dull. “In this life, I have already been so hurt by men that I no longer have the intention to be in a relationship anymore.
Chapter 1697
“Alright, alright. Thank you, Master Zayn.” Hana was extremely grateful, but she did not go overboard with her mannerism. Since the very beginning, Hana had never appeared to be fawning over Zayn or anything like such. When Zayn was leaving Hana’s house in his car, he thought to himself that no matter how he looked at it, Tessa’s mother seemed to be a woman who behaved with propriety and had self-restraint. She was not at all like the unbearable woman that Tessa’s father had described her to be. Could it be that Hector and Tessa were both lying? Especially Hector, who had once thought of committing a crime and had a gambling problem in the past. Zayn was slightly doubtful of Hector’s character.When Zayn left Hana’s house, he wanted to call Tessa to ask her about the matter, but after he thought about it, this matter was not something that could be easily clarified with just a few words. He thought that it would be better to slowly talk about it in the future after resolving the old l
