Cupid's Arrow Hit On Me novel (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 98

“Back then, your grandparents said you didn’t have to help them with the cost of living if you split them half of the insurance money. Besides, your grandmother is blessed with a lot of children. You girls shouldn’t be forking out the money for her medical bills.

“Your parents were still at the morgue when they seized a share of the blood money and hogged your house and land. They wouldn’t even take you in or let you visit your parents’ grave. Don’t feel bad for not footing your grandmother’s medical expenses.”

As a close friend to Serenity’s mother, Mrs. Deli was aware of the events at the time.

Once the uncles got their hands on the cash, they wanted no part in the funeral since Serenity’s parents died in a gruesome car crash. Her uncles either feigned sickness or made up some sort of excuse to evade the responsibility.

It was the mayor who had to step in and give the family a telling-off. With the community giving them judging looks, the uncles begrudgingly helped put the funeral affairs in order.

“Yeah. They are ridiculous.”

After learning that Serenity was back, some of the townspeople dropped by Mrs. Deli’s for a catch-up. They had nothing to be afraid of since Serenity’s grandparents were not around. Talking about that fateful event, everybody was ceaselessly exchanging their views.

They reflected their sympathy for Liberty and Serenity through their narration.

Zachary recorded the exchange.

He also told the townspeople about the viral tweet and that their recorded conversations would serve as proof to retaliate.

Having found out that Zachary put their voice on tape, the townspeople felt put on the spot.

Since there was no way to run from rubbing the Hunts the wrong way, they might as well rise to the occasion and lend Serenity a hand.
