Whether it was Serenity’s hometown or the neighboring villages, the young worked in the cities while only the older generation stayed behind. The elderly could not do much farm work, so the fields were deserted. Since there was someone rich who wanted to rent the fields from them, they would not refuse the opportunity to earn money.
Serenity and Jasmine were very pleased to hear this.
After Elisa finished updating them about the investment project, she looked at Serenity and hesitated a moment before saying, “That was the good news. Time for the bad news. Seren, I also got someone to inquire about what your relatives were up to while talking about contracting the land.”
“Everything they’ve done has been bad news. Just say it, Elisa. I’m prepared to hear whatever it is they’re doing recently. At most, they hauled away the bricks, sand, and gravel and sold them.”
“The trucks of materials you sent to rebuild the house were still there. They were stacked properly untouched. Your relatives didn’t try removing them or selling them.”
Serenity said, “It seems my threat against Noah worked.”
Noah was not his grandparents’ favorite, but he had his own advantages as the youngest.
She told Noah to keep an eye out and not allow the Hunt family to move the materials she had delivered. Noah probably took it as an order because he was terrified of her.
“Back then, you said that you’ll be filing a lawsuit to get your parents’ house back. Although the two old ones don’t know much about the law, the younger ones do. After they explained, your grandparents realized what a lawsuit meant. They know that they won’t benefit from a lawsuit.”
Elisa continued, “Your grandparents were displeased, so they started spreading rumors in the village, saying that you and your sister were not their biological granddaughters. Since you’re not biologically related, you have no right to compete for the family property.”
Jasmine was speechless.
