Chapter 81: DROP THE ACT
"You can drop the act now Charlotte. This is not one of your stupid games. We need Alanis home immediately, do you know where he is?" Garth asked her mother-in-law. Charlotte Hamilton has always been known for her stupid games.
Though owns more than half of the family wealth that is why she is respected by all, but to Garth and her children, she was nothing more than a sick old woman. Garth wouldn’t have been bothered by Charlotte’s shenanigans if Elisa Blackwood had not demanded the money and accessories she had gifted Garth because of Alanis’s marriage to Claudia.
Elisa had gifted Garth lots of gifts to make her daughter’s dream marriage come true, only to be disappointed in the end. Now she was demanding for her gifts to be returned.
Garth was scared because both she and her children had used the money and gifts given and now they have nothing to give the woman. She couldn’t tell Alanis she had collected gifts to send Harlow out of the mansion and convince him to marry Claudia.
Garth had given her two options, Alanis will remarry Claudia and apologize for the embarrassment he caused. Or she will repay everything she had received from them.
The gifts Elisa gave her were worth hundreds of millions, when will she ever come up with such money?
This is the reason she wanted her son to be in charge of the company. Just like in the past, she would let Alanis work from scratch and make the company big again, and then and only then will she strike and steal back everything he thinks he owns.
"Who says I’m playing games?" Charlotte smiled. The people she took as her family, in the end, have hurt her in ways she wouldn’t imagine. Garth had successfully turned her grandchildren against her. They all saw her as an enemy.
"Grandma, this is a serious situation. Bring out brother Alanis." Lia jumped in.
