Chapter 890
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Felipeâs expression darkened as he frowned. âIâm Cathyâs husband.â
âWhat? That damned girlâs husband?â
âAre you⦠really Cathyâs husband?â
Both the mother and daughter were shocked.
Felipe did not want to waste any more time with them. âYou have one day to move out.â
âWhat? How could you make us move? The damned girl has left for so many years already, this house has nothing to do with her anymore!â The mother crossed her arms as she stared down at Felipe arrogantly and disdainfully. âHere I thought how great the damned girlâs eyes were. Who wouldâve thought she found herself a broke and young boy. You want the house back as a marital home? You wish! Look at you. Who are you to get married when you canât even buy a house?â
Felipe shot the woman a cold look, one that made a shiver run up her spine.
âYou have one day to move, or Iâll make you leave myself.â
ââ¦â
Having warned them, Felipe turned and left.
âDamned hobo. You can dream on if you think Iâll let you steal my house!â After recovering from the initial shock, the older woman gave a contemptuous look. When she turned around, she realized that her daughter had followed after Felipe.
After asking around the village where Cathyâs parents were buried, Felipe found that they were on April Hill.
He took Cathyâs urn and his tools, looking around for Cathyâs parentâs graves.
Having chosen a good spot by the side, he began to dig.
Then, he placed the urn and Cathyâs favorite clothes when she was alive inside the ground. Taking a pen, he wrote âIn loving memory of Cathy Jordan, beloved wife of Felipe Whitmanâ on a plank of wood.
Just then, a drizzle of rain began to fall.
Felipe leaned against the grave tiredly as droplets of rain and tears fell from his eyes.
âCathy.
âCan you see it?
âYouâre my wife.
âNot the little sister I sponsored.â
Having watched the scene unfurl, Cathyâs cousin, Yui, quickly ran home to tell her mother.
The woman was shocked. âWhat? The damned girl died?â
âYeah! Sheâs dead!â Yui confirmed, thinking back about the painful look Felipe wore as he caressed Cathyâs tombstone. âI didnât think a woman like Cathy would find a man whoâd love her so much.â
âPfft. What can love buy? I can already tell that the hobo is only here for the house!â
âThatâs true. Being handsome doesnât get you branded accessories and handbags.â Yui pouted in disappointment, deciding to forget about Felipe.
The following day, Yui left the house after putting on glamorous makeup and a sexy dress. She suddenly saw a few limited edition cars she had always wanted to drive into the village.
She stared enviously, only to find the cars stopping by her door.
Stunned, Yui quickly ran out. Her mother who was chatting with the neighbors by the courtyard also ran out at the loud activities.
Seeing the branded cars by their door, the woman looked ecstatic. âIs this the rich suitor you were talking about the other day, Yui? Look at how sincere he is. Mom thinks you should marry him!â
Hearing her mother and looking at the envious gazes the villagers around were giving her, Yui felt her confidence shoot up.
However, the second the man alighted the car, both Yui and her motherâs eyes widened tremendously!
