The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1192

"Liam, this deal isn't a loss," his cousin said. "Sure, your folks' place is in a prime location, but it's only worth a fortune if it’s gonna get bulldozed. Otherwise, it's worth peanuts compared to your parents' debt. Right now, you don't have to cough up a single cent, you can still live in your parents' house, and the debt is all paid off. Sounds like a win-win, right?"

They'd already asked around when they found Liam's mom. If the house was to be demolished, it would rake in six to seven million, but if not, it would have no value.

The amount of the IOU from the start was a bit higher, based on the potential value of the house after demolition.

"You're all a bunch of lowlifes! First, you snatched my parents' death compensation, and now you're taking my house. Who knows if you'll take someone else's pay and not even return the house?" Liam shot back.

"We wouldn't do that!" Abby insisted.

"I wouldn't bet on it," Liam stood his ground.

Abby pondered a bit.

In a toss-up between a couple million and a multi-million property, she knew which side her bread was buttered on.

"Tell you what, we'll fetch a lawyer tomorrow and get the ownership all squared away, okay?"

"What about my parents' compensation?" Liam grilled.

"You still want that dough?" Mathew blurted out angrily.

Abby gave him a stern look then turned to Liam, "The compensation they gave can't cover your parents' debt to us, so this compensation..."

Before she could finish, Liam cut her off, "If you don't return the compensation, forget about it. You know whether my parents owe you money and how much you're gonna squeeze out from the Jared family."

His aunt had been holding back her anger, but she was on the edge.

After dinner, Liam retreated to his room with his backpack.

With his headphones on, he could still hear the quarrel outside.

He couldn't care less about what they were arguing.

He knew when bigger stakes were at play, they would toss aside the less important stuff.
