Married at First Sight by Gu Lingfei Chapter 593
This was the mindset of the older generation. They believed the inheritance should stay in the family by leaving
them to the sons and grandsons as daughters would only grow up to marry into another family.
For families without a direct descendant to bequeath the inheritance to, fellow townspeople would be eyeing the
property.
They would keep the wealth in the town.
Many were unwilling to leave their hard–earned assets to someone who did not carry the family name. Hence, they
would try to bring a son into the family.
“Are you talking about John Hunt by chance?”
John’s name rang a bell as he was once a senior executive at one of the Stones‘ subsidiaries. John made a million
dollars annually.
For John to earn a huge chunk of change from the Stones, to push around her nieces, and to take over her sister’s
property, Mrs. Stone could not say he left a good impression.
She needed to get Clive to go hard on John so the latter would not be able to even make a living out of begging in

“That’s right. My grandparents absolutely adore him since he’s the most promising out of all the grandchildren.
They even named him the adopted son of my parents so he has rights to my parents‘
assets.
“My sister and I plan to take back our parents‘ home after New Year’s. I’d rather sell the place than give it
to them!”
It would entail another lawsuit.
Although the New Year was around the corner, Serenity had not taken action yet due to her sister’s recent
divorce.
The property left behind by her parents was built in the early 90s. The house itself was not worth a lot of money,
but the land was. The residence was built on a land of several hundred square yards.
While her parents were alive, they bought land from others and added yards to their residential land.
Mom once told her and Liberty that the land could be split in two for two houses to be built when they grew up and
made it out on their own. That way, the sisters would stay close to help and take care of one
another.
“That’s bullsh*t! My sister’s property should be inherited by her daughter, not her nephew. Don’t worry, Seren. I’ll
help you take back your parents‘ home.
“Ah, do you have the title deed to the property?”
“All we have is a land use permit, and it’s with my sister. My sister was smart enough to steal the land use permit
when we were kicked out of the house.”
Serenity was only ten back then, so that was the least of her problems.
She was at a loss for losing her parents so suddenly. All she did was cry. Thank goodness her sister was
there for her.
Due to the trending news on Twitter, Mrs. Stone learned about the conflict between the sisters and the
rest of the Hunts.
Nevertheless, Mrs. Stone’s heart still bled for the girls when Serenity talked about the past.
A fifteen–year–old and a ten–year–old had no means to secure their parents‘ insurance payout and assets. against
their greedy relatives. They were forced to go out into the world with only each other.
Mrs. Stone found out from her daughter that Serenity married in a haste. Apparently, Serenity went down. that
road to give her sister confidence and move out of her sister’s place.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOthers might not understand why Serenity did what she did, but Mrs. Stone could.
The sisters only had each other for more than a decade, and as the older sister, Liberty was used to watching out
for her little sister. Even though Serenity was all grown up and had the earning ability to rent a place, Liberty did not
feel comfortable about it. Liberty’s mind could only be at ease if her sister stayed close by her side.
The only way Liberty could get peace of mind was if her sister married someone who could take over Liberty’s job.
This was the real reason behind Serenity’s sudden marriage.
It would be hard to understand the reasoning behind Serenity’s drastic measure to opt for marriage in order to
move out of her sister’s place without getting into the bond the sisters had forged throughout the years.
“It makes things easier that you have proof in hand.”
Mrs. Stone patted Serenity’s hand. “Don’t worry, I will get justice for you.”
“Aunt Audrey, my sister and I can get our parents‘ house back.”
Her grandparents did not have full rights to her parents‘ estate. In short, there was no way they could take over the
entire property.
At first, the sisters planned to wait until the grandparents were dead before taking back the house.
It never occurred to Serenity that her absurd relatives would try to start something.
She should move the legal battle ahead then.
