Mrs. Labenz was very arrogant. She stood by the car and raised her head. She looked at Haylanâs house with disdain. âShe has such a valuable emerald pendant but still lives in such a lousy place. I really donât know what sheâs thinking.â
This was Haylanâs old home in the Ruglane District. The location was very remote, and there was a lot of trash on both sides. of the road. There was an unpleasant odor in the air.
There were also cockroaches everywhere.
Occasionally, a rat would run through the alley.
If it werenât for Feliciaâs emerald pendant, you wouldnât be able to pay her to come to such a godforsaken place.
The environment here was not fit for living.
Harry got out of the driverâs seat and took out some cheap gifts that were packaged luxuriously from the trunk. He glanced at the surroundings and said disdainfully, âTheyâre guarding something so expensive, but they live in such a place.
They really donât know whatâs good for them!â
âPut away these thoughts later and be more enthusiastic. Donât let them see through our intentions,â
Mrs. Labenz said. âMom, donât worry. Iâll do it.â
Harry smiled and said. âLook, I even packaged these gifts very well. Theyâre inexperienced and definitely canât tell. They might even be grateful.
âAnyway, they donât deserve those high-end gifts.â
âAlright, stop talking so much. Hurry up and knock on the door.â Mrs. Labenz waved her hand impatiently.
Harry nodded. He carried the gift in his hand and walked through the alley to Haylanâs house. He started knocking on the door.
As he knocked on the door, he shouted, âIs anyone home?â
Mrs. Labenz covered her nose and mouth with a perfumed silk scarf and followed behind Harry. She looked at everything around her with disgust in her eyes, She thought, âWhat a rotten place.
âHow does Felicia manage to stay here in the past? A lowly person will always be a lowly person.
She sure is adaptable!â
âIs anyone home?â Harry kept knocking on the door and frowned slightly.
He had already called out for so long, but why was there still no response?
âSheâs not at home?â Mrs. Labenz frowned.
âMaybe she really isnât home.â
Harry nodded and asked, âMom, could it be that they know that we have such intentions and specially went out to hide from 115?â
âAre you stupid? How would she know we would come?â Mrs. Labenz glared at him.
âThen why arenât they at home?â
âMaybe she went out for something. Ask the neighbors.â
Harry had no choice but to put down the gift and ask Haylanâs neighbors.
About five minutes later, he returned with a gloomy expression.
âWhatâs wrong?â Mrs. Labenz asked.
Harryâs face darkened as he said in a deep voice, âMom, they didnât go out. That bitch Felicia moved away to avoid us!â âMoved? Where did she go?â Mrs. Labenzâs expression changed.
Harry shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
Charlie and his family had never revealed to anyone where they moved to. Even their neighbors did not know.
âQuickly call her and ask for her address. Mrs. Labenz panicked and hurriedly urged.
Harry took out his phone and was about to call Felicia when he realized that he had not saved Felicia and Charlieâs numbers. His expression was ugly. âMom, I donât have their numbersâ
He had always been obscenely rich and looked down on Charlie and Feliciaâs family from the bottom of his heart. He did not even want to mention their names, let alone save their phone numbers. It felt degrading to mention them.
âThen think of a way. Find someone else and ask them for Feliciaâs number. Sheâs our breakthrough point,â Mrs. Labenz said in a hurry.
Harry nodded and contacted the Labenz family. After spending some effort, he finally got Feliciaâs number and hurriedly dialed it.
Yet, in the end, he couldnât get through to Felicia.
Mrs. Labenz also called Felicia on her phone, but she couldnât get through either.
âBastard, Mom, she blocked us!â Harry said angrily.
âThis bitch. I worked so hard to raise her, but she actually dares to treat me like this?â Mrs. Labenz was also angry They had always acted like they were superior in front of Felicia. They had always been the ones blocking and bullying Felicia They were furious now that Felicia had blocked them. They felt that they had lost all their sense of superiority in front of Felicia.
Actually, they did not know that all of this was done by Haylan.
Haylan had blocked the numbers of the members of the Labenz family on his motherâs phone ever since they returned to Fickery City.
He had seen through everyone in the Labenz family. None of them treated Felicia sincerely. It was better not to keep such relatives around them.
âShe doesnât want us to find her. But I swear that Iâm going to find her!â
Mrs. Labenzâs gaze turned cold. âHarry, think of a way to contact her children. I donât believe we canât find themâ
Harry quickly contacted someone. Soon, he contacted Queenie, who was preparing for the SATS During the celebration that day, only Queenie was not present. She had no idea what had happened.
âUncle, whatâs the matter?â Queenie asked.
âMom, I got through.â
Harry was overjoyed and immediately handed the phone to Mrs. Labenz.
Mrs. Labenz took the phone and was about to say something when she suddenly asked softly, âWhich of Feliciaâs children is this? Whatâs their name?â
She had never cared about Felicia. She did not even know the names of Feliciaâs children.
âQueenie Jaber, Grade 12, Harry whispered.
When Mrs. Labenz heard this, she understood and tried her best to make his voice sound gentle.
She chuckled and said. âQueenie, Iâm your grandmother. We want to come and see your mother, but your family has moved. We donât know where you guys moved to.
âCan you tell Grandma where your family lives now?*
Queenie did not know what had happened in Fickery City and thus she did not guard against Mrs.
Labenz and Harry at all. She directly gave the address of her new home and said, âGrandma, I still have an exam to take. Iâll have to hang up.â
âAlright, alright. Work hard on your exams, Grandma loves you.â
Mrs. Labenz was overjoyed. After silently memorizing the address, she immediately hung up the phone. The smile on her face suddenly froze as she said coldly, âLetâs go to Feliciaâs new home. I want to see how long she can hide from me!â
Harry nodded and immediately picked up the gift. He put it back in the car and drove straight to Haylanâs new home.
When the mother and son arrived at the entrance of Haylanâs new house and saw the villa and courtyard, they were so shocked that their mouths were agape.
âT-This is Charlieâs home?â Harryâs pupils constricted as he was dumbfounded.
Mrs. Labenz looked at the sturdy five-story tall building and the luxurious decorations and was dumbfounded This was a great place. It was much more luxurious than the house they bought at Whileal Kingdom!
âMom, are you sure this is the right address? Could it be that the brat Queenie had lied to us?â
Harry swallowed with difficulty.
In his impression, Feliciaâs family was poor. Not only was this villa immense, but it also had a courtyard and a swimming pool. It occupied a large area. A place like this would cost millions of dollars even in the Ruglane District.
How could Feliciaâs family afford such a luxurious house!
Mrs. Labenz also came to a realization when she heard this. She gritted her teeth and said shamelessly. âThatâs right. That brat must have lied to us. She doesnât have money, but she still wants face Sheâs lying. She doesnât know whatâs good for her!
âThey canât afford such a luxurious house even if they sold their entire family.
âLooks like their family is really vicious. Theyâve been avoiding us. That Queenie is really despicable!
âLetâs go. Letâs continue to think of a way to find them and snatch the precious piece of emerald back. It originally belonged to us Just as they were about to leave, the door of the villa suddenly opened and Haylan walked out.
Haylanâs gaze turned cold upon seeing them. âWhat are you doing here?
