    Chapter 244


    In the Munn''s vi, Wendy and her mother Zoe were sitting in the living room, eating iced watermelon,


    when Toby walked in with a bouquet of carnations.


    Wendy saw her father and shouted happily, "Dad, you''re back. We''re eating watermelons. Come and


    join us."


    Toby waspletely stunned and didn''t pay any attention to Wendy.


    Zoe nced at Toby and suddenly frowned.


    "Toby, where did you get these carnations?"


    Toby lowered his head to look at the bouquet in his hand and casually replied, "I went to Mom''s


    cemetery this morning."


    Hearing that Toby had gone to pay respects to Madam Cordova, Zoe''s face turned ugly.


    Madam Cordova had prevented Toby from marrying her in all sorts of ways. Anyway in the end, Toby


    married her without letting his mother know.


    However, even though she had be Toby''s legal wife, Madam Cordova still refused to acknowledge


    her as daughter-inw and was unwilling to let her live in the Munns'' old house. So she had to live in


    the vi outside with Toby.


    They lived separately. Every time she met Madam Cordova at a banquet, Madam Cordova always


    ridiculed her and humiliated her in public. Therefore, Zoe and Madam Cordova had not been getting


    along well with each other.


    Even when a few days before Madam Cordova died, Madam Cordova still used her in public of


    being a mistress who had stepped into the marriage of others.


    Therefore, after the death of Madam Cordova, Zoe rarely went to pay respects to Madam Cordova.


    Toby didn''t force her to do it and went alone most of the times.


    Zoe looked at the unlucky flowers in Toby''s hands and said, "Didn''t you go to pay respects to her? Why


    did you bring the flowers home?"


    With Zoe''s reminder, Toby woke up suddenly.


    He went to pay respects to his mother. Why did he bring the flowers to his house?


    He only remembered that after he went to the cemetery and learned that Quentin had been there, he


    frantically asked people to check the monitor. However, it only showed side face of a young man which


    looked like Quentin much.


    Later, he went to the rted department and checked the residents list of Peace City. But he did not


    find the name of Quentin Munn.


    He had no time to go back to the cemetery and present the flowers in his hands to his mother''s


    tombstone. So he brought them home.


    "Some things have dyed me!" With that, Toby directly threw the flowers into the trash can next to


    him, and turned around to go upstairs.


    Zoe quickly stopped him. "Wait a moment, Toby. We''re eating watermelons. Why don''t youe to eat


    with us?"


    "You guys eat. I''m a little tired. I''ll go up and rest first."


    With that, he went upstairs directly.


    Zoe looked at Toby''s back in confusion, feeling that Toby''s behavior today was very abnormal.


    Wendy looked in the direction Toby had left, puzzled. "Mom, what happened to Dad today?"


    "How would I know? Forget about him. Let us eat."


    Wendy picked up a piece of watermelon and was about to stuff it into her mouth when she thought up


    something. She put it down again, moved to Zoe''s side and held her arm.


    "Mom!"


    "What''s up?"


    Wendy had a shrewd look in her eyes. "Mom, in grandpa''s will, he left ten percent of thepany''s


    shares to Audrey. He said that Audrey would inherit it on her twenty-fourth birthday. Audrey was


    already twenty-four years old this year, but she never showed up. It can be considered that she gave


    up the ten percent shares. I have already left the entertainment circle and have no ie. With the ten


    percent shares, I would be able to strengthen my status when I marry Julian in the future. So, can you


    talk with dad about it?


    Zoe sneered, "Don''t worry. Her birthday ising in half a month. As long as she doesn''t appear


    before then, the ten percent shares will be yours."


    "Great, thank you, Mom!" Wendy happily pressed her face against Zoe''s arm.


    Wendy sneered inwardly.


    Mr. Munn didn''t treat people equally. She was his granddaughter, too. Before he died, he left 10


    percent shares for Audrey and 15 percent for Quentin. But he left nothing for her.


    Fortunately, she had removed Audrey and Quentin, the two stumbling blocks in advance. Otherwise,


    how could she have a share of the Munn Group?


    Mr. Munn had given Toby the 15 percent shares of Quentin for temporary keeping, but didn''t allow him


    to transfer it to anyone else. However, with Audrey''s 10 percent shares, she could keep her status in


    the Shaws.


    These days were her lucky days.


    The most disgusting Stanton Group had fallen, and ir was sentenced to fifty years imprisonment.


    Her wedding with Julian would also be put on the agenda, and she would soon get ten percent of the


    Munns'' shares.


    After she married Julian, she would be the Young Madam of the Shaws, one of the four big families in


    Peace City. At the same time, she would have ten percent shares of her family business. Who in the


    Shaws would dare to look down on her? Who in Peace City would dare to denounce her?

    At noon, Audrey just walked out of therge building where the Law firm was located when a person


    suddenly blocked her way.


    "Angel!" Carley called out happily.


    Audrey raised his eyebrows slightly.


    "So it''s Mr. Zouch!" Within this half month, Carley won anotherwsuit. "What brings you here?"


    "I wanted to appreciate you, Angel. However, my internship sry was too low for me to buy anything


    decent. I was just paidst month''s sry." Carley blushed and handed over the paper bag to her. "I


    heard that you like strawberry mousse cake. I bought it especially for you."


    Audrey smiled and took the cake that Carley handed over.


    "It''s nice of you."


    "It is my honor!" Carley sincerely appreciated Audrey. "Angel, thank you very much. Without you, I


    would have failed the first time when I went to court alone."


    "You need not to thank me. You should owe your sess to your own capability. I really didn''t help you


    much."


    "Anyway, thanks for your guidance. I have to express my appreciation."


    "Stop expressing your appreciation. One day, the two of us might meet in court."


    Carley smiled, "I look forward to that day."


    ...


    After Audrey sat in her seat, she started flipping through the news today.


    She caught sight of the keywords, ''the Cordova Group''.


    It was a news about the Blue River Bay, a project in charge of the Cordova Group subsidiary. A nail


    house was unwilling to move out of his house. He took his daughter to live in a dangerous house


    together.


    Audrey frowned as she read the news.


    In real life, there were many nail households like this, who dissatisfied at thepensation. They


    demanded an exorbitant price, causing the project to stagnate.


    She had to visit a client in the afternoon. So after reading some news for a while, she went out with her


    client''s information.


    Her client''spany was not far from the Blue River Bay project. When the car passed the


    construction site, she subconsciously took a nced.


    What surprised her was that the house of the nail house had been razed to the ground.


    She thought that, thepensation demand of the nail house must have been met.
