Chapter 1699
Zayn and Hana helped the olddy into the yard. The olddy then called out in a low voice, “Neo
Dixon, are you at home?”
“Who is it?” A very aged voice came from inside of the house. Logically speaking, the old man should
only be sixty-six years old that year, so he was not considered to be too old. However, that voice
sounded like an old man who was almost in his eighties.
“I am Cecilia and I am here to discuss the matter of the fifty thousand dors with you.”
“You came back? Do you have nowhere else to go out there anymore, so that’s why you’ve returned?
This is not a shelter and this is also not a hotel. Do you think you can juste and go as you wish?
Who do you think you are? Go to hell! Get the hell away! ” said the old man. His door was opened right
when he finished his words.
A wheelchair then rolled out from inside the house, and there was an old man, who was stick-thin,
sitting on it. The old man nced at Cecilia and his eyes were affixed on her. Cecilia was ten years
younger than him. She was just 45 years old when she married him. To him, who was already 55 years
old back then, Cecilia was still full of a kind of youthful beauty. He had enjoyed a new lease of life for
ten years after he had married Cecilia. He originally thought that after not meeting her for more than a
year, the homeless Cecilia certainly would be dressed in tattered clothes. However, never would he
have expected that Cecilia appeared to be very clean and in good spirits. She had a head full of gray
hair, but that also was a unique style.
“You...” The old man could not take his eyes away from her. He had been missing this woman every
day for so many days and nights, when this woman was living with him, he had lived a good life. He did
not need to cook for himself or do hisundry. He could sleep in every day and could take a quiet nap
every afternoon. Even if there were children ying in the yard, the olddy also would persuade those
children to leave so as to not disturb her old man from resting. In those ten years, the olddy had
been very skilled in cooking. He could no longer get used to the dishes served outside because of that.
Not only that, but he also realized that ever since the olddy left, although his children would take
turns toe over and serve him, none of them could be as meticulous as the olddy. In the end, his
children got tired of him. After all, they also had their jobs and had to take care of their own children as
well.
Among them, the person whoined the loudest was his eldest son. “Dad! You’re only in your
sixties. If it was ording to the retirement age in other countries, you’re still not retired yet, let alone
being at that age where you start to be a burden to your children, when will this ever end?”
“Go...find that woman and bring her back. As long as she...could serve me well,” said the old man to
his children. They thought that it was the best solution. It was great! Therefore, they kept going to look
for Cecilia and kept harassing and threatening her. Their threats truly had an effect after they had
intimidated her so many times. At that moment, the olddy was standing right in front of the old man

himself.
When he saw that radiant and high-spirited olddy standing in front of him, Neo desperately wanted to
rush to her in an instant and hug her. However, he still wanted to put on airs. In that house, he had
been taking on the dominant position. This was because the olddy had no ie and was spending
all his money.
The old man looked at the olddy with a sneer. “ What are you doing, all dressed up so morously?
Could you escape from your fate of being homeless when you dressed up so morously? I simply
don’t believe it! Even my biological children also don’t care about me, could your rtives care for you
for the rest of your life? In the end, you still have to obedientlyeback to me! Hmph! How disgusting!
Hurry up,e in and cook for me! ”
Seeing such an arrogant and impertinent old man, Zayn truly wanted to go up and give him a kick. On
the other hand, Hana’s eyes were red with rage. However, the olddy stayed calm. “Neo, I''m here to
settle the dispute between you and me!"
