Chapter 414
Spoiled (Lily)
Chapter 414 No Villainy, No Mediocre Hero âItâs all because of my frail body,â Madam Fowler lamented.
âMy late husband had left his sperm in a sperm bank, Madam Fowler revealed, her voice choked with emotion. âI donât want to die. I have to bear my husband a childâ¦â
Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.
Naturally, she couldnât confide in anyone about these matters. In the Fowler family, she was the sole remaining woman.
All she could say was that her husband had left her billions of dollars in inheritance. She hadnât spent it all yet, and she couldnât bear to die just yet.
After all, the details of those billions had long been in the hands of the Ferguson family. There was nothing left for her to hide.
To survive, she tried every possible method. Two years ago, she even traveled abroad in search of the best medical treatments.
âBut when I wasnât home, Parker managed to break in and steal the keys to our house!â
Her late husbandâs inheritance was safely stored in various accounts, so naturally, he couldnât steal that.)
However, her husband had left behind four luxury cars in the garage. Despite his frail condition, deep down, he was a person who longed for freedom and enjoyed the thrill of the open road. With no real hobbies, he had bought those two luxury cars and would often go for leisurely drives.â
The other two luxury cars were bought for her by him to give her as a gift but were sold by Parkerâ¦â¦
The other two luxury cars were intended as gifts for her, purchased by her late husband, but Parker had callously sold themâ¦.
As Lilly listened, her disdain for Uncle Fowler grew with each passing moment!
Uncle Fowler was gone, leaving Auntie Fowler with only this one hope, and he had squandered it!
Madam Fowler continued, her voice filled with sorrow kept all the vehicle documents at home, and he stumbled upon them and stole them. Every power of attorney he presented was a forgery.
Unfortunately, I forgot to take my identification documents with meâ¦â
She would always carry her identification documents when she traveled abroad for medical treatments, but not when no one else was leaving the house.
âIf I hadnât returned so quickly, he would have sold the entire mansion.â
And to make matters worse, he started showing up at the mansion every few days, wreaking havoc.
She -hired security guards, but once he got his hands on the money from selling the cars, he hired thugs to drive the guards away. Eventually, nobody dared to work as security for her house.
Calling the police proved futile. Parker hadnât technically broken into the house; he claimed he was just visiting his sister-in-law, no matter what. No matter how many times she changed the keys, he always found a way to unlock the doors. Madam Fowler even began to suspect that he had a history of being a thief.
So it went on. They didnât commit any overtly outrageous acts. The old couple eventually left, leaving Parker behind to torment her. It was evident that they wanted to wear her down.
Parker, lying on the ground, attempted to offer a feeble defense, but not a single word escaped his lips.
After pouring out her heart, Madam Fowler felt utterly exhausted. There was nothing left for her to worry about now. The secret desire she had confided in Blake to swap lives with another person, had been exposed, shattering her last refuge.
She had been cautious of the Ferguson family, but now all hope was crushed, and there was nothing left to conceal.
âI just wanted to personally give him a childâ¦â Madam Fowler sobbed, tears streaming down her face.
âMy dear friends suggested finding a surrogate, but I could bear to do that! It would be the only trace of my husband left in this worldâ¦â
She truly wanted to experience the joy of giving birth herself, to feel the child grow within her, as if her husband were still by her side. It was the only connection she could have with him now Lilly looked at the aura above Madam Fowlerâs head and said, with a tinge of sadness, âI didnât realize it was like thisâ¦â
Pablo sighed, âThis family, truly a gathering of good people, but also plagued by illness and misfortune.â
Lilly asked, âWhy is it that good people always seem to suffer?â
Meanwhile, the bad people can roam freely without a re in the world.
Pablo was about to respond, but Blake interjected first.
In a solemn tone, he said, âBecause bad people have no shame, they act without any regard for others, and thatâs why their legacy persists throughout the ages.â
But what about the good people? With their compassionate hearts, they are naturally more vulnerable to harm.
Blake lowered his gaze to Lilly and said, âSo, we should never become villains, but we also shouldnât become pushovers.â
âOur hearts can be filled with kindness, but we mustnât be soft-hearted. Do you understand?â
For families like the Fowler family, who have wealth and power, they should have broken the Ferguson familyâs legs when they came knocking.
Compensation for assault?
Sure! Then letâs make it more thorough. Make them pay millions or even billions, so theyâll have the money but not the life to enjoy it.
Blake acknowledged that he could be quite ruthless at nes, but so what? He didnât want his daughter to be a soft, weak, and overly kind-hearted person. Even if she had a bit of cunning, it would still be better than being naïve and easily taken advantage of With the example of the Fowler family, Lilly understood most of it, even though her fatherâs words seemed contradictory. But she truly grasped the essence of it.
Chapter 414 No Villainy, No Mediocre Hero âI understand. Daddy,â Lilly nodded earnestly.
Blake grunted in response and suddenly said, âDonât tell your grandmother about this, that I taught you these things.â
Lilly replied, âOkay, Daddy!â
Grace couldnât help but twitch at the corner of her mouth.
Could this character hold up for even three seconds?
