Nonetheless, Angeline felt amused when she recalled how Ned had only posted those photos tomake Ingrid
stay.
“Bah, what a jackass!” Marion despised men like this.
“Honestly, a man like him is disgusting!”
“Women are always the victims in situations like this!”
Angeline’s seniors began insulting the ‘guy’ immediately, not asking who Jodie was whatsoever.
Angeline looked up at the TV again.
Juliet was using incredibly bad language in the program. lan, the host, interrupted the old womanwith a cough. “After our thorough investigation, our program has confirmed that BenjaminEmmerson’s mother is deceased…”
Juliet interrupted the host instantly.
“Benjamin’s grandfather is still alive!” Juliet yelled, clapping her hands together. “His grandfatheronly has one daughter which is Benjamin’s mother. He has no other kin now that she’s passedaway! He will never seek out his granddaughter, that whore Jodie!
“Benjamin is a boy! He should be in contact with his grandfather. It’s that girl Jodie who’s targetinghis grandfather’s assets and won’t share his address and contact with us! Benjamin’s grandfather is
such a poor dear, already so old yet has no one to rely on…”
“Nonsense!” Anne was so angry her breathing was growing erratic. She pointed at Juliet androared, “Angie hasn’t contacted her grandfather in a long time because she didn’t want to bring upall these sad matters! You guys are the one who set your eyes on her grandfather’s house andwants him to pay for Benjamin’s wedding!”
Discussion and chatter in the barbecue restaurant erupted once again..
“They really are aiming for her grandfather’s assets!”
“You could literally hear it in the way the old lady spoke.”
“It could be an act put up between the brother and sister to fight over their grandfather’sinheritance.”
On the TV program, lan said, “We’ve also contacted Benjamin’s grandfather, Mr. Lawson Senior,and spoke to him over a phone call. To maintain his privacy, we’ve modified the audio. Now let’shave a listen.”
“I don’t want to see either of the children.” Though Robert’s voice had been modified, he still cameoff as extremely elegant. “When I think about them, I think about the pain my daughter went throughbefore dying on the operating table and my wife who spent her days depressed after losing her.
“The Emmersons are monsters. They’re living proof of the torment my daughter went through. Ihope I never have to be bothered by them for the rest of my life. My assets will be donated tocharities that favor victims of abduction. That’s all.”

The call ended.
The audience was understanding of Robert’s sentiment.
Though the children were innocent in this entire affair, It was unquestionable that they were livingevidence of this terrible crime. It was reasonable for the old man to refuse to meet them.
What was more, the Emmerson family seemed to intend to blackmail Robert for his assets with hisown kin.
“That can’t be! How could he give his money to someone else?” George cried angrily. “That’sBenjamin’s
money!”
Katie was shocked, too. She cried, “Benjamin’s grandfather only has one daughter, which is my latesister-in- law. Now that she’s passed on, It’s only right for Benjamin to be by his side! Benjamin isrelated by blood to his grandfather! Mr. Taleman. Could you help us contact Benjamin’s grandfatheragain? You could give us his address or phone number too so we can go find him ourselves!”
The audience was stunned.
Alva’s eyes widened. “Hot damn! I thought they were serious about seeking out their relatives, butwho knew they actually were aiming for the old man’s inheritance!”
