Until the anniversary of my mother’s death, my grandfather was hospitalized due to critical illness.”
Before this, he had already signed an agreement to leave all his property to me as an inheritance.
During this period, a forty–year–old woman came to the door and said that she was also my grandfather’s daughter and wanted to fight for a share of the property.”
I guessed she was the fake daughter who bullied my mother at home.}
But I was not my mother, I would not let anyone bully me.
“You are just my grandfather’s adopted daughter. You should be grateful for the food he gives you. How dare you come and fight for the family property?“”
The fake daughter looked at me with malicious eyes.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? I am the daughter that my dad loves the most.”
“Let me in, I want to see my dad.“}
I chuckled and asked the bodyguard to stop her.”
“But Grandpa said he wouldn’t see anyone except me.”
She was furious and said, “You bitch, you did it on purpose!“}
I smiled faintly and said, “If you curse me again, I will definitely let you know how to write the word regret.”
Seeing that I was tough, she collapsed on the ground and pretended to be pitiful, saying that after she forced her mother away, her grandparents also drove her out of the house.
Over the years, she was hungry and cold and ended up becoming a street prostitute.
She begged me to give her a little money for our past relationship.”
However, I just shook my head and said “No” with a smile.
No matter how pitiful the woman pretended, it was useless and she left angrily.”
Before she left, she also said that she would never give up.
It did not matter. I had plenty of ways to prevent her from coming again.”
During my grandfather’s last days, he often lost his consciousness.
He always recognized me as my mother and called me by her nickname.
I would occasionally coax him, but most of the time, I would look for traces of my mother’s legacy in this manor.
During this period, I found the dress that my mother used to wear, saw the room she used to live in and the music box she owned.”
At the same time, I heard the news about my brother’s death in a car accident and my father’s imprisonment.
I would tell these things to my grandfather as rare news.
He would burst out laughing and then say, “Serves you right.”
I was not sure if he was cursing at my father or at himself back then.
Perhaps both.
On my grandfather’s last day, he weakly asked me, “Serena, did your mom say anything to me before she passed away?”
I thought about it carefully and spoke truthfully.”
“Before she passed away, she did have some things she wanted to say to Grandpa and Grandma.“}
My grandfather slowly opened his eyes, full of hope. “Did she still think of us before she passed away? What did she say?”
Looking at my grandfather’s weak appearance, I smiled slightly.
“Grandpa, I don’t want to tell you.“”
After hearing what I said, my grandfather became emotional.
He started crying and then started laughing. “As expected of her daughter, your personality is just like hers, really….”
“Lily, I’m here. This time, don’t hide from me anymore….”
My grandfather closed his eyes and never woke up.”
In fact, my mother did leave me some words to say to my grandfather before she passed away.”
She said she forgive him and did not hate him anymore.”
However, I did not want to mention that my mother forgave those who hurt her.
Anyway everyone should now a price for their actions right?!

Anyway, everyone should pay a price for their actions, right?
After inheriting billions of dollars, I spend every day basking in the sun and enjoying life in the manor.”
And occasionally travelling around the world.”
The wounds on my body had long been healed.
But the wounds in my heart still needed some time to fade away.
However, I was not in a hurry.”
After all, for the rest of my life, I would not beg for anyone’s love anymore.”
I would love myself well.
Then, I lived a wonderful life just as my mother once wanted.
(The End)
