"Grandpa."

"Enough, don't you dare refuse! Otherwise, | will get mad. You know | haven't fully recovered." Darren said, breaking into a feigned

cough for emphasis.

But Arabella was no fool. She could see right through his act.

"Your uncles have their own businesses. They're set for life. When i pass on, everything will go to you. If you're shying away from a

small token now, what will you do later? Just hand it over to someone else?"

"Grandpa."

"Our family owes you so much already. Consider this a chance forto make it up to you."

Darren said this and coughed deliberately once more, waving his hands dismissively, "No more talk, I'm out of breath. | need to go

in and rest.

Holding the wooden box in her arms, Arabella watched her grandfather's retreating figure, filled with a mix of amusement and

affection.

"I've caught wind that Calvin and Arlen are selling their properties, sat half price, just to gather more cash to take with them."

Eunice had long been aware of their intentions, speaking coolly, "Because Dad gave them only two days, they're rushing to

liquidate. They need a buyer to pay in full, immediately transfer the money into their accounts. | applied spressure, so no one

dared buy their stuff. Then | got speople to push down their prices even further. In the end, | bought the two most valuable

mansions and a string of shops in the town center at a bargain. The rest, if they couldn't sell, would have to be put under Dad's

nwhen the twas up."

On hearing this, Serena realized that the wooden box, which Grandpa had insisted Arabella take in the garden, contained the

unsold houses, shop keys, and luxury car keys of her relatives.

A wave of jealousy surged through Serena's heart!

They had already rewarded Arabella with close to ten million dollars, wasn't that enough? And now she was getting more?

What about her?

Did she get anything?

Didn't anyone care about how she felt?

At that moment, watching Arabella carry the wooden box upstairs, Serena felt a murderous jealousy.

Even though her grandparents had just proclaimed fairness in front of everyone, their favoritism was now blatantly obvious!

"Serena, Serena? Are you listening to me?"

Eunice's voice snapped Serena back to reality, and she offered a strained smile, "Aunt Eunice, what were you saying?"

"Go upstairs and change. | bought snew clothes for your grandma, take her to try them on. We'll meet in the living room in

about half an hour."

"Okay.

Serena couldn't remember how she made it back to her room, only that she had passed by Arabella's room and noticed it was

larger and more beautiful than hers.

Maybe it was the sting of pride that led her to take out her phone and dial a familiar number almost subconsciously.
