Chapter 253
Shirley froze, then lunged at Ss like a madwoman, "You dare to hit me? We''re going to fight to the
death."
Ines massaged her temples, and Ethan frowned. Ss, caught off guard, got a scratch on his face
from Shirley''s nails, but he quickly grabbed her arms, disabling her.
Ines, unustomed to such violent scuffles, watched as Shirley, with a twisted expression, started
kicking Ss since her hands were restrained. Soon, Ss''s pants were covered in footprints.
Unable to bear the sight, Ines turned to the nearby servants, "You guys,e over and take her to
her room. She''s acting like a rabid animal."
The servants hesitated to step forward. Ss couldn''t hold back anymore, "You lot,e and take
her away."
Ss had always been the housekeeper of the Galeana family. Despite his temporary departure, his
authority remained. With some hesitation, the servants obeyed Ss.
Shirley red at them, "Don''t you dare, I''m the mistress of this house. If you dare, get lost."
"The will was clear. This property is now Ms. Emma''s, and it has nothing to do with you. You can
stay here only if Ms. Emma agrees. If she doesn''t, you should leave," said Ss.
"Ridiculous! I''m her mother. How could she kick me out?" gloated Shirley. Then she turned to
Emma, "Emma, hurry up and kick them out. You''re the boss now."
Emma didn''t even bat an eyelid. Aiden nced at her but said nothing.
"Emma, I''m talking to you. Are you deaf? You don''t listen to me now?" shouted Shirley.
Emma was just experiencing a throbbing headache and didn''t want to deal with Shirley. She had
never thought deeply about many things before, always assuming that her mother should want the
best for her.
But now thinking about it, she realized that she had beenpletely misguided. Everything her
mother did was for herself.
Shirley was escorted to a room by a few servants and locked up. She continued to curse inside, but
thanks to the soundproofing of the house, peace was finally restored.
Ss dusted off his pants and apologized to thewyer, "Sorry you had to see this."
Thewyer shook his head, "I''ve seen a lot of this in my line of work. There''s always someone
unsatisfied with the inheritance."
Ss nodded.
Thewyer handed out some documents for them to review. If there were no issues, they could sign
and he would handle the procedures.
When thewyer presented the documents to Emma, she frowned but didn''t take them. Ss
nced at her, "Ms. Emma, you were originally given 5% of the shares by the chairman, and
Jasmine 10%, which you were to manage.
So, in fact, you got 15%. However, the will was lost. You can''t me your father. He really cared for
you two. It was just an unfortunate ident."
Ines also nced at Emma, noticing her off mental state and wondering what had upset her.
Aiden gently patted Emma''s hand, "Emma, sign it."
Emma was momentarily stunned but still made no move.
Ss sighed deeply, "If you don''t want to ept these assets, you can tell thewyer. He will take
care of the procedures."
Upon hearing this, Emma finally looked up, took the documents, and signed them.

Ss breathed a sigh of relief. Hunter loved his daughter dearly, and he didn''t want to force her to
do anything.
Emma lifted her head and calmly said, "Ss, I have no objections to this allotment. I was just
thinking about some things." What she received far exceeded her expectations. Her current assets
were enough to support her and Jasmine.
Ss was slightly taken aback. He didn''t understand why she suddenly became so understanding;
she usually showed some discontentment at times like this. Patting her shoulder, Ss said, "I''m
d you feel that way. Your father was good to you. If you need my help, just let me know. Your
mother''s been unstabletely. Be careful and protect yourself and your child."
Emma nodded, "Don''t worry, I''ll go to thepany during the day ande home at night."
Seeing Shirley''s erratic antics earlier, Aiden suggested to Emma, "We should move back home for a
while."
Emma smiled, "No, I''ll stay in my own house. If your mom impulsively shoves me again, I may not
be so lucky."
Aiden''s face darkened at Emma''s public remarks, and he said tly, "Suit yourself then."
Although Ss didn''t like Aiden, he felt better knowing Emma had someone to take care of her. So,
he told Aiden, "You should stay here for a few days, until Shirley calms down."
Aiden nodded.
Seeing that the documents were signed, thewyer handed out his business cards in case they had
any questions, then left. Ines and Ethan were also about to leave when Ss pulled out a ck
notebook from his bag and handed it to Ines, "Ms. Ines, I found this while sorting your father''s
belongings. He kept it with him in his briefcase during hisst days, always writing something in it
when he had the time. I guess it might be his words to you. You can check what he wrote."
Ines was slightly shaken and took the notebook, "Is this his diary?"
Ss shook his head, "Nah, he didn''t have the habit of keeping a diary. He wrote this when he
realized his time was running out. It''s probably stuff he couldn''t bring himself to say out loud." Ines
took it and left with Ethan. Checking the time, they realized it was gettingte. They decided to ditch
work and instead nned to take Rita and Zander to see Hunter.
