Cupid's Arrow Hit On Me novel (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 63

Serenity responded to her sister, saying that she and Zachary would be there for dinner tonight.

After Serenity hung up on Liberty, Zachary asked, “Do you get along with your extended family?”

“No.”

Serenity was frank and honest. She added, “My parents passed away in a car crash when I was ten. No one from my paternal or maternal sides of the family wanted to raise my sister and I.

“However, all of them wanted a piece of the insurance payout. Since my uncles had no right to the money, they instructed my grandparents to get more out of us. My dad was the youngest son, so he didn’t get much attention in the family. My grandparents favored my uncles instead.

“They said that we don’t have to pay for family support in exchange for a bigger chunk of the insurance payout. They took six hundred thousand dollars and signed the contract to relinquish care for us and our responsibility to them. My grandparents also moved into the two-story house my parents had built just before passing away. They said the house was theirs since my parents were no longer around.

“My grandparents mentioned that we don’t need a house since we can find a guy to depend on when we grow up. We were young back then, and no one had our backs, so the house was occupied by my grandparents. We used to return for a short stay during our school holidays, but we received judging looks as if we were there to steal the place from them.

“Liberty said that our parents’ names are on the title deed. We’ll file a suit and reclaim the property when our grandparents are gone. We won’t leave the house to our uncles.”

Zachary uttered, “Let me know if you need our help when you go to court. I know a lot of lawyers.”

York Corporation had its own legal team.

Serenity was grateful. “I’ll ask if I need help.”

It would be probably a few years before her grandparents kicked the bucket.

Serenity and Zachary would probably be divorced by the time the legal battle came about.
