Chapter 396: Chapter 396

Smack! A loud slap landed on Kent’s face.

He was caught off guard.

Kent was stunned.

“Heather?” Had she recovered her memory or not? “Kent, are you a human?” Heather glared at Kent with cold eyes.

Heather had left so much wealth to him just to ask him to raise her daughter.

In the end, he sent her daughter to the countryside and let her be subject to cruelties from the distant relatives.

Hunger reduced her to skin and bone.

“Heather?” Kent called out again.

From her look, Kent wondered if Heather had regained her memory.

His eyes flickered and he said immediately, trying to feign innocence, “Heather, why did you hit me?

Did you misunderstand something?” “What do you think I misunderstood?” Heather glared at the Kent, her eyes red with anger.

As her younger brother and uncle of Anna, Kent abandoned Anna after he thought Heather died.

If it were someone else, they would never do such a thing even if there were no assets for them.

Kent wanted to take over her huge assets, and at the same time, he allowed his distant relatives to mistreat her daughter.

Kent’s eyes flickered again.

He said, “Heather, did Lee and Anna say something to you? Heather, actually, Lee and the others really misunderstood…” Smack! Heather was so enraged that she slapped Kent’s face.

again.

She glared at him, her eyes reddening with anger.

“And you have the nerve to call it a misunderstanding?” Kent immediately raised his hand and swore.

“Heather, it’s really a misunderstanding.

Let me explain.

It’s like this.

After your car accident, I buried you.

A master who was an expert in astrology took a look at Anna and said that she was a jinx…” Heather interrupted angrily, “So, you’re afraid that Anna will bring you bad luck and throw her to the countryside? Were you planning to let her die in the countryside?” It was this reason again.

It was the same reason when he tried to brush off Lee.

“She’s my niece.

How could I let her die in the countryside? I told my distant relatives to take good care of her…”

Heather cut him off angrily, “So, you let her be reduced to skin and bone and she had to work in the fields at the age of six?” “I didn’t expect my relatives to treat her like this…” Smack! Heather was so furious that she grabbed the cup in front of her and threw it at Fortunately, Kent, who was quick in reaction, dodged it.

The cup fell to the ground.

Otherwise, his forehead would have split open.

“Heather, listen to me.

I swear that I do love Anna.

If I wasn’t really good to her, why would I wait until she was six years old before sending her away? I could have sent her away when she was three years old.

“At that time, the fortune-teller said that Anna brought bad luck to her family and that it was better for her to live in the countryside.

The fortune-teller also said that the earlier we sent Anna to the countryside, the better.

Anna was so little, and I really couldn’t bear to part with her, so I waited until she was six years old…”

Heather’s chest heaved up and down.

She could not help but laugh mockingly.

“So, I should thank you?” Kent knew that Heather was angry.

He braced himself and explained, “Heather, it’s true Anna did suffer a little, but I think the fortune-teller was right.

Anna has been doing better ever since she went to the countryside.

Not only did she get to know a mentor like Joseph, but she married into a rich family like the Parks family…” Before he could finish his sentence, Heather slapped him in the face again.

Kent was dumbfounded.

He reached out to cover his face.

As long as Heather could forgive him, he didn’t mind being slapped a few more times.

Heather was filled with anger.

“You still have the cheek to mention that Anna met her mentor and married into the Parks family? Anna was lucky to meet her mentor who taught her skills.

Her master is kind and Anna is smart.

Later, it’s her fate that leads her to meet Julian and marry into the Parks family.

Where on earth do you have the cheek to mention these two things?” Kent muttered softly, “It’s true that she only got a chance to meet her mentor after she was sent to the countryside…” “Hah…”

Heather was so angry that she laughed.

“I should thank you for sending Anna to the countryside.

I should thank you for bringing her back in order to get the Moonlight Group’s shares.

I should thank your daughter for snatching Anna’s boyfriend.

After discovering that Benjamin can’t compare to Julian, she wanted to steal Julian from Anna.

I should thank your daughter for thinking of ways to embarrass Anna on various occasions…” “No, there are no such things…” Kent explained anxiously.

Heather made a call on her phone and asked, “Mr.

Hayes, are you here yet?” When Lee received her and Kalyan’s identification reports and confirmed her identity, he had someone re-register her identity and buy her a new phone.

Ever since Heather regained her memory, she had been using a new phone.

She asked Anna for Mr.

Hayes’s number during dinner.

Anna had told her that Mr.

Hayes was a very good countryside.

She asked Anna for Mr.

Anna had told her that Mr.

Hayes was a very good person.

He had always been diligent and had helped her a lot.

Therefore, until now, he was still Moonlight Group’s legal adviser.

Heather called Mr.

Hayes at dinner.

She roughly told him her thoughts and asked Mr.

Hayes to come over at 11 p.m.

“I’ll be right there,” Mr.

Hayes said over the phone.

“Heather, no, it’s just a misunderstanding between us siblings.

Let’s just make it clear.

Why did you call a lawyer?” Kent was very frustrated.

Heather sat down with a dark expression.

Lee held Heather’s hand and comforted her.

“Heather, calm down.” He immediately handed the hot milk that the waiter had just sent over to Heather.

Heather took a sip of milk and saw Mr.

Hayes running over.

Mr.

Hayes ran over with his briefcase and greeted politely, “Heather.” He was really excited.

He did not expect Heather to still be alive after the car accident.

Heather handed the IOU to Mr.

Hayes and said, “Please take a look.” Mr.

Hayes read the IOU seriously.

Kent also craned his neck.

When he saw the contents of the IOU, his heart skipped a beat.

What did Heather mean? Was she planning to take back the house that was going to be demolished?

He had already moved out of that luxurious villa, living in a very dilapidated place.

He was counting on the house and waiting for the house to be demolished so that he could get compensation.

If Heather meant to take it back, he would really be penniless.

After carefully reading the IOU, Mr.

Hayes nodded and said, “This IOU is valid.” Lee said, “This house will be sold immediately.” Mr.

Hayes said very professionally, “The contents of the IOU stipulate that if the borrower can’t return the money, you will get this house.

Therefore, this house will belong to you, and as the rightful owner, you get the additional money if the house appreciates in value.” Heather nodded and asked Mr.

Hayes, “What rights and interests can I claim now? I want to get its ownership.” Mr.

Hayes nodded and said, “The house is being demolished.

The procedures will be a little troublesome.

If your brother cooperates, it will be faster.” Heather said coldly, “If he doesn’t cooperate, I’ll sue him!”

Kent was anxious.

“Heather, come on.

I’ve explained so much to you, but you turned a deaf ear?”
