Chapter 352


    That night, the final blow was delivered to the Moran Family''s doorstep. Carmine''s people hade


    looking for them. Bang! Bang! Bang! The Morans were already down in the dumps, and Melise stormed


    over to the front door when she heard someone knocking. A few burly men invited themselves into the


    house after she opened the door.


    She was shocked. "Who are you guys? How dare you just barge in like that! Get out!" she cried.


    However, the few men simply ignored her and headed directly to the living room. Both Mason and


    William turned and got to their feet when they heard the noise. William felt chills running down his spine


    when he saw their visitors. His insides began to tremble with fear.


    Mason, on the other hand, hadn''t realized anything about his son''s strange behavior. "Who exactly are


    you guys? Who permitted you toe in? Get out! I''m going to call the cops otherwise!" he shouted


    while ring at the people. The few men startedughing after that.


    The leader of the group tilted his chin up with a nonchnt expression on his face. "I think your son


    knows who we are. Don''t you?" The man nced at William. One of his people added to his words,


    "That''s right. And for your information, we didn''t barge in. We''re legally allowed here! You can call the


    police if you want. The police will only speed up the procedure of things!"


    Mason had no idea what was going on, but he had an uneasy feeling as he turned to look at William.


    "What do they mean?" William''s gaze darted all over the ce, and his shaky voice revealed how


    uneasy he was. "I-I don''t know. I don''t know them…"


    The leaderughed before exposing William. "That''s not right of you, William. We shared the same


    table just a few days ago. How could you have forgotten us already?"


    William flinched. "I…"


    Mason seemed to figure out what was going on then. That b*stard of a child must have gone gambling!


    He must have caused more trouble there! Mason immediately turned to re at William. "What have


    you done this time?! Tell me!" he growled while stomping his feet. William didn''t have the guts to


    exin himself, so he simply lowered his gaze to the floor. His muscles were tense, and he felt like his


    heart was at his throat.


    However, the visitors had no reason to keep William''s deeds a secret. The leader of the group licked


    the inside of his cheek before smirking. "Calm down, Mr. Moran. It''s no big deal. The few of us are just


    here to im the house."


    Both Mason and Melise felt their world spinning upon hearing the man''s words. They were utterly


    confused. "im the house? What house?" Mason asked.


    The visitor raised an eyebrow as he looked at his surroundings. "This house, of course. Why else


    would we be here?"


    Mason felt as if he had been struck by lightning at that moment. He felt light-headed as he fixed his


    re on the man. "What… What did you just say?" Melise was just as shocked. "What nonsense are


    you saying?!" she shouted in a high-pitched tone. "This house was left for us by our ancestors. You can


    never take it away! Hurry up and leave! Or I''ll call the police and sue you guys for trespassing and


    making false ims!"


    The visitor scoffed—he didn''t seem the least bit threatened by them. Instead, he pulled his phone out


    and handed it to Melise. "Here. Call the police. Do whatever you want." She was stunned to see how


    calm the other man was, and she no longer knew whether to take the phone from his hand. The man


    held his phone up for another ten seconds. Eventually, he tutted at herck of action. "I can make the


    report if you guys don''t want to do it. But are you guys sure about this? You guys will have to leave the


    property once the police arrive," he uttered. Then, he unlocked his phone as if to make a call.


    Mason panicked as he had no idea what was going on. "Wait!" His instincts told him to stop the man.


    "What is it? Have you changed your mind?" the visitor asked.


    Mason was clenching his jaw so hard that he felt like his teeth were about to shatter. "How could you


    guys take the house away just like that? All the property documents are in my hands. William has no


    right to wager this piece of property! His words cannot be taken even if he promised you guys


    anything!" he uttered in a hoarse voice.


    The man scoffed when he saw how desperate Mason was. "Give it to me," he said to one of the men


    behind him while holding his hand out. Soon enough, the man handed a document file to his leader.


    Mason panicked when he saw the documents. The visitor pulled out two sheets of papers from the file,


    one of them being a property transfer agreement, and the other being… the real estate license for their


    house!


    Mason felt as if he had been struck by lightning once more. "H-How did you get these?" He was utterly


    shocked. The visitor let out azy smirk. "How do you think I got them? William was the one who


    handed this license to me. I''ve already processed the property transfer agreement and went through


    the transfer procedures beforeing over. You guys don''t need to do anything else. You Morans are


    no longer the legal owner of this house," the visitor announced.


    Melise felt as if she had forgotten how to breathe for a moment. Her legs turned into jelly as she


    copsed onto the ground. "How did this happen…" Mason''s face turned pale as he mumbled to


    himself through his trembling lips.


    William, on the other hand, was silent the whole time. He hid in the shadows with a grim look on his


    face. He hadn''t expected these men to be so efficient —they hadn''t even given him any time to turn


    things around! The visitor looked at the three people''s faces before he spread his lips into a smirk of


    satisfaction.


    "Well, it''s just a house. You guys have a huge business, and I''m sure you guys have the money. You all


    can move out after losing this house. I''m sure wealthy families like you have other pieces of property


    elsewhere. We are understanding individuals, and we wouldn''t mind allowing you guys to stay here for


    one more day. You can start packing up now. We''lle over to collect the house tomorrow. If you


    guys aren''t gone by sunrise, I''ll have to call the police to take you guys away, Mr. Moran."


    With that said, the visitor chucked the transfer agreement onto the coffee table before he led his men


    out. The hall waspletely silent after that. Mason''s vision turned ck for a moment, and he felt like


    he was about to faint. He had to clutch onto the couch to steady himself. All of a sudden, he let out a


    hystericalugh before jabbing his finger at William''s chest. "You b*stard! Are you trying to ruin our


    whole family?!"


    Mason was screaming when Melise''s shrill voice interrupted him. "It''s her! I can''t believe it''s her!" She


    picked up the transfer agreement to see the signatures at the bottom of the page. One of them was


    William''s signature, while the other was… Katherine''s signature! "It''s Katherine! She''s the one who sent


    them over!" Both Mason and William froze upon hearing this.


    William couldn''t believe his ears for a moment. Katherine''s the one who nned this all out?! Mason


    stood still for a long while before he copsed to the ground. He looked utterly defeated. "It''s her… I


    can''t believe it''s her…"

    Meanwhile, Katherine had just brought Noah for her full-body checkup when she saw Carmine had


    come over to visit her. "Everything has been settled, Miss Cornell. The Morans will move out of their


    housetest by tomorrow. They''ve been thoroughly defeated this time. If they don''t im bankruptcy,


    they''ll be in debt for a long, long time. They won''t be able to crawl back up anytime soon," Carmine


    announced.


    Katherine beamed at the sound of this.
