Chapter 1212
Married at First Sight
Mike persuaded his granddad to come to an agreement with Serenity and Liberty regarding the house.
âOkay,â Serenity agreed.
If negotiation was on the table, she wanted it. She did not want to waste time on a lawsuit.
An hour later, Zachary arranged a private room in Wiltspoon Hotel for the Hunt family to talk.
Liberty brought Sonny with her.
Old Mr. Hunt called John back too. He was fighting for Scottâs house because he wanted John to inherit it. John had always been his favorite grandson, so he liked to discuss everything with John.
After hearing that Serenity used their youngest cousin to get a DNA test done with Old Mr. Hunt in advance, John was cognizant that continuing their actions would only paint them.
There was a mishap with Harrietâs cosmetic surgery too. She was supposed to change her face to Serenityâs, but she came out looking like their other cousin insteadâ¦
It would be hard to carry out the plan of Harriet replacing Serenity as the missus of the York family.
The Hunt family was no match for the Yorks. Furthermore, there were many people in the York family.
The young men of the York family were all giants among men. They had the highest status. in all of Wiltspoon.
The Hunts were unreconciled and wanted to bully Serenity and her sister but only ended up humiliating themselves. The two sisters had powerful backers now. Even if they did not, with their temperament, they would still go to court in order to get the house back.
From the beginning, the Hunt family was fighting a losing battle.
âSerenity and Liberty, you two have spread your roots in Wiltspoon and are living well now. You probably wonât go back to the village to live. Name a price. Sell the house your parents left behind to us.â
Mike spoke first. âIf you donât want to sell it, then give some money to Grandmom and Granddad as per their share, and theyâll give up the estate. The house will belong to you and your sister, but let our grandparents stay there until they pass. Theyâve lived there for many years and are used to the house.â
Frankly, they just did not want to take in Old Mr. and Mrs. Hunt to live in their own villas.
Firstly, their wives did not get along with Old Mrs. Hunt and were prone to conflicts.
Secondly, the two elders did not take care of their hygiene; the youngsters felt that Old Mr. and Mrs.
Hunt were dirty. They were also afraid that both of them would die in their villas and taint the property.
In any case, Old Mr. and Mrs. Hunt had always lived with Scott. After Scott and his wife died, they continued to stay in Scottâs house, so just let them live in that house until they passed too.
âGrandmom and Granddad didnât just give birth to my dad. When my parents were alive, it was always them taking our grandparents to the doctor whenever they felt unwell, and it was always my parents who took care of them. However, no matter how much they did, they still couldnât compare to you people who only pay lip service.
âYou canât expect to toss the responsibility of caring for them in their old age to my dad too, right? My dad passed on and canât take care of them, but the insurance payout from his death went to Grandmom and Granddad. Itâs equivalent to paying back the money they used to raise him.
âMy dad isnât around anymore, but youâre all alive and well. Furthermore, youâre doing well financially.
Every family lives in a small selfâbuilt villa, and you all live good lives. Despite that, you donât want to take them in to live with you and want them to continue living in my house instead. Fine, we have no problems with that.â
Serenity added, âHowever, more than ten years ago, Grandmom and Granddad signed an agreement with Liberty and me. We wonât support them while theyâre alive, and we wonât have anything to do with them when they die either. If theyâre staying longâterm in our house, shouldnât you be compensating us a little?â
While she did not want to split hairs, they were still trying to bully her and her sister.
