Chapter 867 Rights?
Hazel was dumbfounded.
She could no longer be arrogant towards Nellie when she knew exactly when her mother was with her father.
Catherine was no better now and gave Nellie a fierce glare, "Don't you go too far."
Nellie sneered.
"You didn't think you were going too far after all you did before? And this is too much?"
A flash of unease passed through Catherine's heart as she met the cold, sarcastic gaze of Nellie.
She won't let them leave Shirling now, is she trying to clean them up?
Soon, Catherine and Hazel saw how ruthless Nellie was, only to hear her say to Marco on one side.
"Marco."
"Yes, Lady Nellie."
"Pack up all their things, I don't want to see them."
At these words, both Catherine and Hazel looked at Nellie in unison. What did she mean by this? Was she trying to throw them all out?
"You can't do this to me." Hazel stood up and looked at Nellie with a gloomy gaze.
She has grown up here since she was a child, it is like home to her, and all the properties in her name are now frozen.
Yes.
In a short time, she received news one after another that the property was boarded up, naturally it was because of the dispute over the will. Usually such a lawsuit can take a very long time. What none of them expected, however, was that Nellie had gotten the best international barrister to come over and get all this done in a short time.
She was going for the quick fix.
But as quick as she could be, if she was thrown out of here now, she would be living on the streets for a long time.
"I haven't even had anyone to open the door for me when I come back for New Year's Eve since your mother came in, so why can't I do that to you?" Nellie looked at Hazel's miserable pale face, and then look to the secluded Catherine on one side.
She was shaking with anger and her face was gloomy. Looking at the two of them, Nellie finally had a glimpse of happiness in her heart. Catherine pretended to be virtuous in front of her father, but when no one was around, Nellie could not even enter this house.
"Mom." Hazel saw that Catherine didn't say anything and pulled her, her face all anxious.
She had no money if she was thrown out now.
Nellie was very quick to strike this time, and those assets they had transferred earlier could not be used at all now.
Because all their accounts have been frozen, it will be very difficult for them to just get out of Shirling and get kicked out of here again now.
Catherine was well aware of this.
She looked at Nellie with a white face, "Now that the verdict hasn't decided, I have the right to stay here."
"Didn't you get that? The house is all still in my mother's name at the moment."
When Catherine and Hazel heard that, they both paled.
At the moment, Catherine's heart was heaving badly.
Nellie watched her reaction, smiling, "This is something that you can't possibly not know after so many years with him, right?"
Catherine blushed whiter.
She, naturally, knew about it.
George could give her anything, except this place, which he never gave.
The air, for a long time, was quiet.
The two parties were facing each other in a silent confrontation, only the sound of clashing cutlery was left, now only Nellie could still eat.
Both Catherine and Hazel had no appetite through the days.
Catherine spoke up in the end, "Hazel, let's go."
She finally couldn't take it anymore, she hadn't been humiliated like this in all these years, she wouldn't continue to be here even if she went to sleep in the street.
Hazel's face went white as she heard that.
"Mom, why should we leave?"
At this moment, Hazel knows very well that once they leave this house, they have nowhere to go, there is no place for them in Shirling.
In response to Nellie's mockery, Hazel's original assertiveness dissipated at this moment.
She, normally, disliked Nellie and hated her very much, but who Hazel loathed even more now was her own mother, Catherine.
But for her to admit defeat over it, to move out of here, or even to lose everything, she wouldn't want to.
"Let's go."
Catherine did not want to say so much, the taste of being humiliated by a junior was too much for her to bear.
But she vowed in her heart that one day she would return to this place, the place where she and George had lived for over twenty years. George said that everything would be left to her, and naturally that included this place.
Hazel wanted to say something else, but Catherine had already gone upstairs to pack her things and soon came down with a suitcase. Hazel was uncomfortable, but had to do as she was told.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Within an hour, the two emerged from the villa together.
Outside, it is now a hot summer day and even in the evening, they can feel that constant wave of heat coming on.
"Where are we going now?"
Hazel asked Catherine.
Nowadays, when they go out, they basically pay by mobile phone, but all the accounts associated with them on both their phones are frozen. And, of course, they had no cash on them.
Catherine looked up at the sky, watching the pink haze in the sky, and tears rushed to her eyes.
Taking a deep breath, she said, "Let's find a hotel first, I just borrowed two thousand from Laura."
For the time being, they could only stay in a hotel, but as for the rest, they would find a way.
To think that she had never suffered like this since she had been with George, and now she was in this position.
She won't let Nellie go, she'll be back.
Hazel followed her out and didn't say another word to her until after she got a room at the hotel.
Hazel was blaming her, naturally.
"What's wrong with you?"
Catherine asked after all, she hadn't asked anything earlier at the villa, but now she sensed that something was wrong with Hazel. They've had arguments before over Nellie's mother.
But in the general direction, they were mother and daughter after all, and naturally they were on the same side.
Hazel put her bag on the sofa and said, "She made a deal with me."
"Who? What kind of deal?"
Catherine was startled in her heart, and the moment she asked the question, she reacted to who exactly Hazel was talking about.
It was Nellie, who hated her, and she was the only one Nellie wanted to take revenge on from the beginning.
She'll do whatever tears her heart out now, she's taking revenge.
"What kind of deal?" Catherine's gaze tightened as she looked at Hazel, her eyes already beginning to hollow underneath.
Even if Hazel had not yet said what Nellie had traded with her, Catherine had now begun to be afraid.
During this period of time, Nellie seemed to be doing nothing, but in reality, secretly, she had already caught them in a dark net.
She was so ruthless and defensible that she was many times more terrifying than her mother.
"Don't you trust her." Meeting Hazel's eyes, Catherine subconsciously didn't want to know exactly what their deal was.
