Chapter 193


    Selina didn’t seem surprised as if she had known he would say that. However, her expression was


    even more indifferent.


    She said, “You want me to stay out of your family’s business? Fine, I happen to be not interested in it.


    But, I want to know that since


    you won’t live long, how will you deal with your money? How much money are you going to give Anna?


    Anna is a bit embarrassed to ask


    for money, just like her mom. So, as her aunt, i’ll ask you for her.”


    When Olivia died twenty-five years ago, Selina lost all her expectations of Frank. She felt that he was


    an irresponsible man who


    abandoned his wife. However, she thought that Anna should get the money she deserved as his


    daughter. If Olivia hadn’t given Frank the


    money, he wouldn’t have been able to start his ownpany.


    At that moment, the room was quiet. Everyone was concerned about what Frank would do with his


    money and property because it


    would determine how much they would get. Among them, Shirley and Allie were the most concerned


    about this issue.


    “I’ve already given Anna what she deserves,” Frank said sorrowfully.


    “Dad, what did you give her?” Allie blurted out and looked impatient.


    Frank looked up at her with a cold gaze. He said, “I gave Lemon Clothing Company to Anna.”


    “Lemon?” said Allie, who didn’t even know there was such apany in the group. When she was


    about to ask more questions,


    Shirley tugged her and told her to shut up.


    Only she knew that Frank kept thatpany because he wanted to keep it as a memento for Olivia.


    However, thispany was


    doing very poorly and was barely surviving on the money given by the head office. If Frank gave this


    company to Anna, it could save them


    big trouble.


    Anna took Selina’s hand and said, “Auntie, it’s okay. This is my mother’spany, and I really like it.


    That’s the only thing I want.


    Okay, let’s go.”


    Selina frowned after hearing her words and finally said, “Fine.”


    Before leaving, Anna looked at Frank and said, “Bye, Dad. I hope you can be happy and healthy every


    day.”


    Frank didn’t look up at her but kept his head down in thought. If Anna had looked closely at him, she


    would have seen that his eyes


    were red and looked very depressed.


    Anna and Selina then walked out of the hospital, and neither mentioned what had just happened.


    “Selina, what brings you to the hospital?” Anna asked.


    “Oh, I came to get my medicine, but my doctor wasn’t there. I just happened to hear that your father


    was staying in the hospital. I


    was going to mock him, but I have no idea he was leaving today.”


    Anna smiled and asked, “Really? What a coincidence! But, who dares to mention my father in front of


    you?”


    Anna thought to herself, il Selina hadn‘t asked about it, who would have dared to mention my dad in


    front of her? There‘s no such


    thing as a coincidence in this world. But, some people just love to arrange “coincidences


    Setina red at her and said, “Okay, let’s not talk about ine. Tell me, why do you only want that crappy


    company?”


    “Oh, because it’s my mom’spany! It’s the only thing that means a lot to me.”


    Selina saldimtably, “What? I hope you’re joking with me, Anna. Howinuch does that so called ‘meaning’


    worth? You and your


    mother ateso alike, and she’s so into this kind of shallow stuff. Have you ever thought about what will


    happen if you let thispany go


    under”


    “Tell me, how did my mother start thepany then? Did she have a good beginning?”


    Selina bristled and said, “Of course not to be honest, she was totally not built for doing business. At


    that time, your grandfather


    often helped her with that. But she just wanted to give the money to your father! Your granther didn’t


    agree on your parents’


    marriage. So, your mother held a grudge against him. Later on, you were born.”


    Then Selina stopped talking, feeling upset and remorseful. She had experienced the pain of someone


    she knew dying in front of her,

    so she had aplicated feeling.


    Anna was born prematurely. And Olivia bled heavily just as she got out of the hospital room, and the


    doctors failed to save her. So,


    Olivia died in the arms of her best friend, Selina. At that time, Selina was already married to her


    brother.


    Olivia died so suddenly that she didn’t even see her father onest time.


    So, it became Anna’s grandfather’s biggest trauma. He had a total of three children, and he loved his


    youngest daughter Olivia the


    most. She was only in her twenties when she died.


    Anna’s grandfather was healthy before Olivia’s death. However, after Olivia’s death, he got sick


    because of his grief. Later, he could no


    longer take care of Anna, who was still a child. And not long after that, he died.


    When Olivia died, Selina was already pregnant for more than two months. She and Joe tried for so long


    and she finally conceived,


    and she didn’t even tell her family the news. However, the baby was miscarried because she was


    shocked by Olivia’s death. After that, she


    was never able to have another child.


    And the tragedies that happened to three families were all caused by Frank, who was so busy cheating


    on Olivia at that time that it


    took him a long time to notice it.


    It was not until hearing Selina’s words that Anna understood the friendship between Selina and her


    mother many yearster.


    The chef of Gabriel’s house prepared a sumptuous lunch for Frank to wee him home. The


    delicious aroma of the meal was all


    over the vi.


    “Frank, look, these are all your favorite. Please take a seat.” Shirley pulled out a chair for Frank and


    invited him to sit down by the


    table.


    However, Frank put his fork down right after taking a bite of the food.


    Allie asked nervously, “Dad, what’s wrong? Is it not good i’ll have them make you some more food.”


    Frank coughed, got up, and said, “No, thanks. I’m feeling a little tired, so I’m going to my room. If Mr.


    Leeester, tell him to see


    me in my study.”


    Allie was a little stunned to see how exhausted, and weak her father was. She said, “Oh, okay.”


    Minutester, a clear sound of a door closing came from the study on the second floor. Then, the living


    room became quiet.


    Shirley asked the maid to clean up the flowers in the corner and then brought out a te from the


    kitchen. There was a spoon and a


    bowl of soup on that te.


    Your father didn’t eat anything. Allie, send this soup to him.”


    Alle looked at the bowl and asked, “Mom, is it just some soup?”


    Shirleyred at her daughter, lowered her voice, and said, “Of course! What else could it be? Allie,


    there are a lot of people here, so


    don’t talk nons-ny. Sind this over to turn.”


    Sting the look in her mother’s eyes, Allie know there was definitely something else in this soup.

    Shirley interrupted her daughter and said, “Silly wri! Do you know what Mr. Lee is going to do here


    later? Making a will! He’s going to


    help your father make his will I don’t think that he will just give Anna that smallpany. If we don’t act
