Keegan looked at Sabrina in disbelief. "You slapped me? You actually slapped me? I am more than a decade older than you! This is my house. How dare you slap me here?"
He had been used to being all high and mighty. He had always been highly respected when he was abroad. No one had ever slapped him. He had never expected that he would actually be slapped by a woman ten years younger than him after he had returned to the country and to his own home. Also, she was a woman who had attempted to take away all of the Shaw family's property.
Sabrina sneered. "So what if I have slapped you? You're a person who thinks that you’re the only human while others are all bullshit perverts! I simply want to slap you up! Not only have I slapped you, but I also want to take away all of Old Master Shaw’s properties! I won't leave a single bit of it for you at all!"
"You!" Keegan felt that he had met a robber.
Sabrina continued to sneer. "My mother and I were originally planning to give it up. However, we're not giving it up because of you but because of your brother instead. In fact, your brother and your parents also did not intend to take these properties. Since this is the case, Mom, why don't we just accept it."
Gloria also smiled. "Sure. This money is supposed to be my mother's anyway."
Both the mother and daughter duo turned around and wanted to return to Old Master Shaw's bedside.
Keegan was so angered that he was trembling all over. "All of you! Are you going to let these two outsiders harm our family like that? Dad, Mom, you have been bewitched! Bewitched, do you know that? These two women, these two outsiders, want to cheat Grandpa and take away all of our family’s properties! Dad, Mom! Marcus!"
Both his parents sighed sorrowfully.
Marcus glared at his brother and was so angry that he was unable to say anything anymore.
Seeing that his parents and brother were so indifferent, Keegan went to pull Gloria." Stop right there! Don't make another move! I’ll call the police now! Not only did you act so arrogantly in my house, you even slapped me! I am a civilized person. I will not stoop to your level! However, I will handle this matter seriously!" "Keegan..." Old Master Shaw, who was on the bed in the inner room, heard everything clearly. Tears were streaming down his face as he called out his eldest grandson's name. Keegan did not hear him at all. He was too busy arguing with Sabrina and Gloria.
Sabrina did not submit to him as well."
Keegan, listen to me carefully! If you want to call the police, get them to your house, and disturb the peace of Old Master Shaw's final moments, I can't control you!
However, please listen carefully to me as well! You're right! You're a civilized person! However, don't you, a civilized person, forget that there are no unreasonable people in this house as well! Why did I slap you? If you don't know it in your heart, then I'll tell you right now!" "Alright, alright! Very well! Go on!" Keegan was so angry that his lips turned purple. "Ever since you walked through the door, you said that my mother and I are outsiders and are people who came to mess up your family. Since you said that, since you said we are outsiders, you don't acknowledge that we are a part of the Shaw family at all! Since that is the case, is it wrong for my mother and me to leave? But what did you say? You said that my mother's last name is Shaw and she is Old Master Shaw's daughter! If that is not a double standard, what is? When it's about dividing up the money, my mother is an outsider. She absolutely can't touch a single penny of the Shaw family's money at all. However, when it's time to care for the old man, my mother has to be a member of the Shaw family and has to care for him. Is that right? Is that what you mean, Keegan?” "That's right!" Keegan sneered. He absolutely did not realize how strange his thoughts were and how unreasonable he was behaving.
Instead, he looked at Gloria with great contempt. "Since my grandfather had given birth to you and had given you your life, you have to be grateful to him! If he hadn’t given you the Shaw family name, would you have such a noble identity? Not only were you not grateful, but you're even thinking about how to take a share of the Shaw family's properties! Since ancient times, have you seen a child of a mistress, especially a daughter, was able to get a share of the family's properties? Have you seen it before?"
