Female Novel
Chapter 2407
“They’re also trying to get our remaining pension. The house we’re living in now belonged to Scott and
his wife. We were only able to secure this place to stay because we’re Scott’s parents.
“Although our children have been providing us with some living expenses every month, that’s actually
the rent that Serenity requested them to pay. Without Serenity’s enforcement, they wouldn’t even give
us a single penny. Ultimately, we’re just relying on Serenity and Liberty.
“We’re old. We have to accept our fate and be realistic. Let’s stop making pointless struggles.”
Old Mrs. Hunt wanted to refute him, yet she could not find any words. What Old Mr. Hunt said was true.
“Don’t blame Liberty and Serenity for being cruel. What we did to them ten years ago was worse. Whynovelbin
were we so ruthless back then? They’re our granddaughters after all. Scott and Lisa passed away,
leaving their daughters behind. How did we bring ourselves to chase them out and seize their
inheritance?”
As Old Mr. Hunt spoke, he wiped tears of regret from his eyes.
“Stop listening to our children. Let’s just stay put and not cause any trouble for the sisters. As time
passes, their hatred might lessen. Serenity might even hire a caregiver for us when we can no longer
move around if we behave.
“Anyway, I’ve seen through our children and grandchildren back when Serenity and Liberty came back
for this house. I lost all hope in them. We’re bound to be abandoned when we get older.
“Let’s hope our children don’t get treated the same way when they’re old.”
Old Mrs. Hunt sighed upon listening to her husband’s words. “Okay. I’ll listen to you. I never thought the
grandchildren we disliked and neglected would be living the best life out of all of us.
“Do you think Serenity will invite the Howdens?”
The Howdens were their in-laws, Lisa’s adoptive family.
Old Mr. Hunt shook his head. “No. When I learned about Serenity's wedding, I looked into the
Howdens’ situation. I know she didn’t invite them.
“The Howdens didn’t support, accept, nor take in Liberty and Serenity back then. They even took a
share of the compensation for themselves. Do you think the sisters won’t hold a grudge against them?
They were simply letting it slide because the Howdens had raised their mother.
“After knowing that Serenity had married into a wealthy family, the Howdens were also clever enough
not to disturb her. That was how they could continue living a peaceful life.
“Putting aside the Howdens’ cruelty toward Serenity and Liberty, Lisa’s sister gave the Howdens some
money in return for raising Lisa. However, there was no way they could gain any more benefits.
“Unlike us, the Howdens never made a fuss. The more trouble we make, the more we lose.”
Old Mr. Hunt sighed heavily and stopped talking. He simply continued smoking.
Serenity was clueless that the relatives back in her hometown wanted to attend her wedding.
It was true that she did not invite them.
As Old Mr. Hunt said, she could not forgive them for mistreating her in the past.
Serenity allowed her grandparents to live in their childhood house and asked her uncles to pay rent,
which would be given to Old Mr. and Mrs. Hunt as their living expenses. That was because the old
Hunts were her grandparents; they had partial ownership of the house.
Otherwise, she could not be bothered with their lives.
Liberty had asked Serenity if she wanted to invite their relatives to the wedding, but she refused.
That was a relief to Liberty too.
Serenity knew her sister had yet to let go of the past. When Liberty got married to Hank back then, the
Hunts demanded three hundred thousand dollars, which embarrassed her on her wedding day. That
probably marked the start of Liberty’s unfortunate marriage.
After some consideration, Serenity and Zachary decided to send some items to her hometown on their
wedding day. They were to be given to Old Mr. and Mrs. Hunt as well as the neighbors who had helped
Serenity and Liberty out before.
As for their uncles, Serenity refused to give them anything. They had previously schemed to have her
cousin undergo plastic surgery to look like her and replace her.
Serenity would always reciprocate the respect she received equally, but she could never tolerate those
who had harmed her.
So what if those people were related to her by blood?
