When Naomi left the ward, Uncle Zach was already waiting for her downstairs.
“Miss Green, after last night, the old clients Scott scared off have all returned. We’ve been signingcontracts since morning that made our arms sore!”
At the mention of Langdon being successful, Uncle Zach looked excited.
“Uncle Zach, don’t get too complacent. Our path-” “I know, I know! The sky’s the limit!” Uncle Zach smiledand replied.
“Hmm. Langdon will go national in the future!”
Naomi looked serious. It was a promise she made to her mother. Next, she had to fulfill another promise.
She had to take back her mother’s old mansion!
Naomi soon arrived at the Green Residence. “Miss Green, I’ve changed all the locks here-inside andoutside. The servants have all been changed too. We have arranged for new guards as well. Withoutyour permission, no one is allowed to enter!” Uncle Zach exclaimed while opening the car door. “Go havea look at where else you need to renovate. I’ll get someone to do it immediately.”
“Okay.”
Naomi nodded and headed to an old tree in the middle of the courtyard. She reached out and gentlytouched the rough bark of the tree. Lilian had changed everything her mother had left behind in thecourtyard, except the huge tree. It was worth a lot, so the greedy Lilian left it untouched.
“Oncle Zach, bring me a shovel!”
“What? Miss Green, are you planning to dig the tree up?”
“Pfft, no. Let me be alone for a while.”
Naomi smiled helplessly.
“Okay.”
Uncle Zach soon found her a shovel and waited for her outside. Naomi started digging up by the side ofthe tree. Soon, the shovel hit something hard.
“As expected. It’s still here!”
