Chapter 1764: Chapter 1764

Jared backed Ellen up, saying, ‘Ellen, I’ll provide you with the best attorney.” Olivia panicked; she thought Jared was poking his nose into this too much. “Young Master Jared, this is a matter within our family, so please stay out of this.”

“Ellen can have you all sentenced to jail just for illegally keeping the compensation payment for yourselves, Jared replied frostily.

Connor, who had been looking on, finally looked up in distress, saying, ‘That’s enough, Oli! Just shut up. We’re indebted to Ellie in the first place, so we’ll compensate her for that. We’ll sell our house and our cars to make up 7.5 million for you as soon as possible.”

“What? Connor, what nonsense are you talking about?! How could we afford to pay it back?!” Olivia was taken aback. She had no desire to sell the house or their cars, as she felt comfortable living here!

“Dad, what are you talking about?!” Selena was shocked, too. Is Ellen trying to tear our home apart?

How are we supposed to raise 7.5 million with this house of ours? ‘Don’t go too far, Ellen!” she threatened while suddenly charging toward Ellen.

Connor pulled Ellen into his arms before warning in a cold voice, ‘Stay away from her!” Ellen’s attractive eyes were fixed on Selena. She said coldly, “You guys are the ones who’ve gone too far.”

Selena replied, “You’re demanding 7.5 million from us! This house is the only valuable thing we have now, and there’s still a mortgage on it! Ellen, are you trying to leave us with nothing to our name?” She was clear about the value of her family’s property. Indeed, her family could raise 7.5 million with all of their money, but they would have nothing to eat if they were to give all the money to Ellen!

Olivia also nearly passed out in anger. She walked up to Connor, saying, “Connor, I object to this! I won’t agree to sell our house.”

It went without saying that Connor didn’t want to sell the house either. However, with Jared backing Ellen up, perhaps he would really have to go to jail for what he had done over these years. He would rather go from riches to rags than go to jail to soothe Ellen’s anger. “Ellie, can you please give me some time? I’ll definitely make up 7.5 million for you,” he said to Ellen..

Seeing that he had promised her so, Ellen decided to trust him this time. She gritted her teeth, saying, “Fine, I’ll give you some time, but I must get no less than 7.5 million. Then, she turned to Jared. “Let’s go!”

Jared also didn’t want to stay in front of this family any longer. He led Ellen by the hand out of the house, but Olivia immediately came out after them. She pleaded with an imploring look, “Ellie! Wait, Ellie!

We can still talk this over! You can move in with us; we’ll be nice to you in the future.” “Ellen doesn’t lack a place to stay. She’s staying with me from now on, Jared replied flatly.

Olivia replied, “Young Master Jared, we did you kindness in saving your life back then. Can’t you let us off for the sake of this? You’re so loaded, after all.

Surely it wouldn’t be a problem for you. to give her another 15 million as compensation? Isn’t Ellen just asking for money? She could’ve demanded money from Jared as she pleases! Why does she have to demand money from us?

Ellen replied, “As I said, what I want isn’t money, but justice.” She was seething with hatred. Looking at Olivia, she couldn’t help but recall. how she had greedily asked for money.

“Ellen, what are you talking about? We’re a family. What kind of justice are you seeking?” Olivia really thought Ellen was being unreasonable. All we did was not give her a share of the money, no? Does she have to strip us of every penny for that?

At this moment, Selena came out as well. Seeing that her mother was still pestering Ellen, she had no choice but to brazen it out and said, “Ellen, can you let our family off for the sake that we’re cousins?”

Jared actually feared that Ellen would be softened up. Luckily, Ellen wasn’t softened up at all. Looking at the mother and daughter, she recalled the injustices she had suffered over these years, including how they had shown off in front of her and turned up their noses at her while spending her brother’s money, as well as how they had treated her and Jessica with indifference while living in a fancy house and driving luxury cars when she and Jessica were in the most difficult time of their lives.

“No, I can’t. I’d rather not have relatives like you guys, and there’s no way I’d let you guys off either,”

she replied frostily without mercy or sympathy.
