The Princess and the Paupers Novel Full Episode
Chapter 511-520

Chapter 511

But people can’t just look down on everyone just because she had some talent! Sending people off to the loony bin liked it’s nothing, that’s way too much, man!

Not far off, Mrs. Panter was all bummed out cause she can’t get close to Olga. She spied the scene unfolding and made a beeline for Arabella.

“You frivolous girl! My son is about to engage to Yoli, and you’re still here, sticking like glue? And in front of my future daughter–in–law? How can you be so shameless?”

Even though Arabella was a high–profile piano maestro, Mrs. Panter reckoned that even the best maestro can’t hold a candle to the property the Murphy family just bought for a fortune!

In terms of benefits, Yolanda still had the upper hand!

Yolanda was taken aback by the word “daughter–in–law“. She didn’t expect Mrs. Panter to publicly acknowledge her status. She felt a sense of elevation. “Me? Bothering your son?” Arabella found this amusing. “Is your vision impaired, or is something wrong?” She pointed at her head. “Do you need me to book an appointment with a doctor? Does your family have some sort of special advantage? Or is the Panter family in line for royal status? You’re so full of yourselves, and I thought you were royalty.”

“YOU!” Mrs. Panter was thrown off by Arabella’s disrespect, belittling the Panter family in front of everyone.

Even though the Panter family wasn’t royalty, they were not to be trifled with by a girl of her age!

“Forget it. Don’t bother with her.” Olga had seen what Arabella was capable of today. She knew she’s the biological daughter of the Collins family and was acknowledged by Alberto as his granddaughter. Plus, Arabella’s parents were here!

The Collins family was tight with the Archer family. Starting a ruckus on Archer turf was asking for trouble!

But Mrs. Panter wasn’t aware of the connection between the Collins family and Arabella, so she confidently said, “Olga, you don’t need to go easy on her. You’ve been too lenient with her in the past. That’s why she dares to belittle you! Today, I’ll teach this ingrate a lesson!”

Guests around them thought, “Who does this Mrs. Panter think she is?” They’ve clearly seen Arabella attending with Mr. and Mrs. Collins, and they seemed to be on good terms.

Where did this Mrs. Panter get the guts to mess with someone connected to the Collins family?

The key point was they’ve also seen Erlinda looking really close with this girl.

Feeling all eyes on her, Mrs. Panter didn’t want to lose face, so she attempted to discipline Arabella.

But Arabella coldly grabbed her wrist. She didn’t expect so many people to cause trouble today.

She immediately shook off Mrs. Panter’s hand, “Monkey see, monkey do!”

“Frivolous girl, who are you swearing at!” Mrs. Panter was ready to go toe–to–toe with her!

Today, for her son’s marriage and the future of the Panter family, she must put on a good show in front of Olga!

Erlinda had always been looking for a chance to deal with the Murphy family and the Panter family. Seeing them argue, she smiled and walked towards them.

“Let’s see who has the nerve to stir up trouble on my turf.”

Seeing Erlinda step up, Mrs. Panter felt emboldened, “Ms. Archer, your timing is impeccable! This young lady, I don’t know who invited her, is shamelessly seducing my son in public! You might not know, but my son is about to propose to Yolanda, the heiress of the Murphy group!”

Without giving Erlinda a chance to speak, Mrs. Panter raised her voice so everyone can hear, “We’ve already prepared for the engagement party! But this young lady,”

Suddenly, a hand brutally slapped Mrs. Panter in the face.

Everyone was shocked and turned their attention to Erlinda!

Even Mrs. Panter was stunned, and she’s been slapped by Erlinda!

And it happened in front of everyone!

hapter 512

Now, Mr. Panter and Attlee Murphy can’t sit still and come at once. “Ms. Archer, who are you?”

“You keep saying all kinds of bad things about my niece in front of me, and you still bully my niece here? You really think I’m easy to bully!”

Hearing this, the crowd was immediately shocked.

Niece? Arabella was Erlinda’s niece?

How was that possible? Wasn’t Erlinda still unmarried?

A person who didn’t even have a spouse, where can she get a niece?

Could it be that she treated other people’s children as nieces?

The Panter family and the Murphy family were shocked.

“I remember I don’t know you well. I didn’t invite you to dinner tonight, did I?”

As soon as Erlinda’s voice fell, a person came out of the crowd and said respectfully, “I’m sorry, Ms. Archer, I invited them.”

“There seems to be something wrong with your vision. I guess your work is not very good either. If I don’t see your resignation letter tomorrow morning, I will make you unable to stand in this industry!”

Hearing this, the man was so scared that his legs went soft. “Ms. Archer.”

“Let’s go!”

“Sure.” The man didn’t expect to lose his job because of it, and his eyes were full of resentment when he looked at the Panter family and the Murphy family!

Erlinda looked at the Panter family and the Murphy family coldly. “I have invited my niece for three years, and she finally came to my dinner party, and you self–righteous people messed her up.”

“Ms. Archer,

”

Before Mrs. Panter finished, Erlinda said, “I usually speak softly to my niece, but you dare to lecture my niece here?”

“Ms. Archer, let me explain.”

“My niece needs you to teach? You little families don’t know the rules, so I’ll teach you the rules today!”

Erlinda raised her hand again and slapped Mrs. Panter in the face,

They were shocked again and gasped in succession.

“Respect is mutual. Since you don’t respect my niece, I don’t need to be polite to you!”

After Erlinda called, she also picked up the disinfectant paper towel on the waiter’s tray, wiped her hands, and threw it aside in disgust.

“I clearly saw your son pestering my niece just now. He has a fiancee and grabbed my niece’s hand. Somebody, break his hand.”

Hearing this, the people were surprised!

Erlinda really deserved her reputation. She had always been vigorous and fearless!

Now that the Panter family and the Murphy family had offended her, their fate will surely be miserable.

“Ms. Archer, you can’t do this!” Mrs. Panter immediately stood in front of her son.

Mr. Panter also protected his son. “My son’s engagement party will be in two days.”

“Oh, what does this have to do with me?” Erlinda obviously didn’t take them seriously. It’s just two small families, but dare to pretend in front of her? Zachary quickly stood up and explained, “Ms. Archer, the thing is, Arabella beat my fiancee today and then had my fiancee’s family sent to a mental hospital, so I was very angry and wanted to ask why.”

As soon as Zachary spoke, everyone knew that the Murphy family was sent to a mental hospital today.

“It turns out that the Murphy family had a big event today, and it was sent to a mental hospital?”

“I didn’t expect the Murphy family’s daughter to be beaten. What happened?”

“So they came directly from a mental hospital to attend tonight’s dinner?”

Attlee and Olga had a hard time hiding it, and Zachary told them, and they were very embarrassed.

And Mrs. Panter was completely at a loss, “A mental hospital? Yoli was beaten? What happened?”

How come her son never mentioned this to her?

“You bullied my baby daughter in the auction today and even want an apology from us?”

At this time, everyone looked where the voice came from.

They saw Louisa coming towards them angrily, protecting Arabella and saying, “Who finally swollen Yolanda’s face? Did you ask clearly?”

Everyone was very shocked! What did Louisa mean by saying that?

How did this little girl become her daughter? Was it a newly adopted daughter?

No matter when they were adopted, as long as they were related to the Collins family, today, the Panter family and the Murphy family had offended two big families!

14-27

What’s important was that Yolanda’s beating seemed to have something else to hide.

The Panter family was shocked. Arabella turned out to be the biological daughter of Kenneth Collins and Louisa.

Oh, the last news report said Arabella Collins was the top scorer.

Arabella! Was she really the biological daughter of Kenneth and Louisa?

This was terrible!

Mrs. Panter whispered to Olga, “Why didn’t you mention Arabella’s identity to me?”

Didn’t I just stop you from bothering her?”

You!‘

Mrs. Panter was furious at once.

And Zachary looked at Yolanda incredulously, “Who the hell hit you in the face? Why did Mrs. Collins say you bullied Arabella? Is that why you were sent to a mental hospital?”

Zachary, let me explain.”

Zachary shook off her hand and didn’t want to hear her lies anymore!

Recently, he found that Yolanda had been lying, especially about Arabella, and she had been deliberately hiding it!

This made the Panter family offend the Collins family and the Archer family at the same time tonight.

“Mrs. Collins, Ms. Archer, I’m really sorry, this is really a misunderstanding!”

Mr. Panter didn’t expect this to happen, so he quickly kicked his son. “You idiot, what are you still doing there? Why don’t you apologize to Mrs. Collins, Ms. Archer, and Arabella!”

Zachary didn’t expect Arabella to stand at a height beyond his reach again.

How on earth did she do it? Why were there so many identities? Any identity was much stronger than their two families!

“Don’t apologize soon?” Mr. Panter patted his son on the back of the head.

Zachary endured pain and humiliation and walked up to Erlinda. “I’m really sorry. I misunderstood Arabella. I didn’t mean to cause trouble in your place. I apologize.”

Erlinda turned her head without even looking at him.

Zachary turned to Louisa again. “I’m really sorry. I hope you can be generous and forgive me this time.”

Louisa hugged Arabella’s shoulder tightly and said firmly, “I will never forgive anyone who bullied my daughter!”

Zachary could do nothing but turn to Arabella. “Arabella, I’m sorry for you. I misunderstood you again without knowing clearly in advance. Please forgive me!”

Before Arabella could speak, she heard a relaxed voice coming from behind.

The person who bullied me just said an apology and wanted to get it over with?”

Everyone turned to look at the source of the sound and saw that it was Romeo McMillian, and everyone was shocked.

“Mr. McMillian.”

“Mr. McMillian.”

Many guests greeted Romeo, and Romeo just nodded slightly in response.

Chapter 513

Arabella was a bit taken aback and asked, “What brings you here?”

If I hadn’t shown up, I wouldn’t have known someone was messing with you.” Romeo gently patted her head, then glared at Mr. Panter, “Mr Panter, are you going to discipline your kid, or should I do the honors?”

At those words, Mr. Panter nearly lost his legs from fear and apologized profusely, “This is just a minor issue; no need to bother Mr. McMillian

Seeing the affectionate interaction between Romeo and Arabella, it was clear as day they were a couple.

Knowing his son messed up big time, Mr. Panter was filled with regret. But all he could do was wipe the sweat from his forehead and face his good–for–nothing son.

“Dad,”

Zachary didn’t even finish his sentence when his father slapped him hard across the face,

You ungrateful brat! How dare you offend Mr. McMillian’s friend!”

Zachary had been pampered since childhood and couldn’t stand the sudden slap. He almost fell to the ground.

‘Zachary.”

Yolanda was scared out of her wits, not expecting Mr. Panter to smack his own son so hard.

Hearing her voice, Mr. Panter turned his attention to her, a flash of anger in his eyes, “We’ll deal with your issue later!”

Yolanda was scared stiff, feeling all eyes on her. Her face turned extremely red with embarrassment.

The slap had split Zachary’s lip, drawing blood.

But Mr. Panter wasn’t done with him, and he slapped him repeatedly, “You ignorant fool! I’m going to take this opportunity to teach you a lesson! Remember this, steer clear of Mr. McMillian’s friends! If you dare offend them again, I’ll break your hands!”

Zachary was dizzy from the blows, and he never imagined the handsome man was Arabella’s boyfriend. He had thought Arabella was cold to him because he pursued her and then vanished, so she was angry.

He thought she held a grudge because he chose Yolanda, decided to get engaged to her, and thus hurt her.

Because she couldn’t have him, she was stirring up trouble;

She wasn’t talking to him because Yolanda was around;

He never thought Arabella simply didn’t give a damn about him!

Arabella’s boyfriend was the world’s richest man, standing at the pinnacle of society, young, handsome, and immensely wealthy.

How could Arabella possibly fancy him?

Zachary laughed at himself. No wonder Arabella always looked at him with disdain and indifference.

Turned out Arabella truly looked down on him, not even worth a glance. She probably thought he was crazy!

And he only realized it now, what a fool!

Such a fool!

“Got that?” Mr. Panter, tired from hitting, gave him another hard kick.

Zachary curled up on the floor, kicked by his father. He was in so much pain he was about to pass out.

He had never been so humiliated in his life! Especially in front of so many important people!

“Mr. Panter, you’re not as young as you used to be. You should take it easy.”

At this point, Erlinda suggested out of kindness.

Mr. Panter didn’t expect Erlinda to speak up for him, felt his tough love approach was effective, and quickly expressed his gratitude, “Thanks for your concern, Ms. Archer, about this matter,”

“Perhaps you could use some tools to save some energy. After all, you’ll need to further educate him when you get back, I happen to have some at home! Just wait a moment. I’ll have someone bring it for you.” Erlinda had someone fetch a bat.

Mr. Panter didn’t expect Erlinda to add fuel to the fire instead of helping, his face immediately turned sour.

“Lucky you’re here to discipline him today, or else my people, being young and strong, might have accidentally hurt your son, then the Panter family’s lineage would, you know.”

Erlinda’s intention was clear.

Chapter 514

Either Mr. Panter kept teaching him a lesson with the bat, or Ms. Archer stepped in. If Zachary got hurt, he can’t blame them.

Mrs. Panter was heartbroken but can’t stop it. After all, her son had pissed off three families today!

Each of these families was seriously heavy–duty!

He can only bear the pain!

Mr. Panter closed his eyes, picked up the bat, and kept walloping Zachary.

“You ungrateful brat, you’ve lost face for the Panter family.” He went on for a while.

“Mr. Panter, knock it off.” Erlinda repeatedly said, “The bat isn’t doing much good. Let’s get Mr. Panter something else.”

Everyone: ????

Erlinda was so decisive! Her take–no–prisoners attitude was too much for most people!

Mr. Panter was completely thrown, “Ms. Archer.”

“This one is sturdy, very useful!” Erlinda handed a knife to Mr. Panter, grinning from ear to ear, looking very sincere.

Mr. Panter was all, “Ms. Archer, this isn’t right.”

“Why not?” Erlinda suddenly slashed Zachary’s hand.

She just happened to slash the hand that touched Arabella.

Zachary probably didn’t see that coming. He shrieked in pain, shaking all over.

Erlinda casually raised an eyebrow at everyone, “Hear that? Much more effective.”

Everyone: !!!!

“Ms. Archer, please, I beg you to spare my son! He’s had enough. I’m kneeling down to you!” Mrs. Panter, crying, suddenly knelt before Erlinda,

Erlinda looked at the knife in her hand, smiling, “Begging me won’t do you any good.”

Mrs. Panter got it and knelt in front of Arabella, sobbing uncontrollably.

“Arabella, I was wrong to blame you earlier. I thought you were the one bothering Zachary. It was all my fault, and I’m kneeling to apologize. Can you let Zachary go?”

Mrs. Panter bowed repeatedly, “It was all my mistake. I believed others without checking the facts.”

Hearing this, the whole Attlee family jumped, worried this will affect them.

“I was wrong, and I’ll never do it again. I’ll make Zachary stay away from you, okay?”

“Mrs. Panter, are you trying to put my fiancée on the spot?”

Just then, a chilly voice rang out, and everyone saw Romeo protecting Arabella, glaring at Mrs. Panter.

Fiancée??

Mrs. Panter’s tears were stuck in her eyes.

Everyone was taken aback, fiancée?!

This girl right here was Romeo’s fiancée?!

The Panter family was toast!!

Mr. Panter’s mind went blank.

Even Zachary, in his pain, can hardly believe it: Arabella wasn’t Romeo’s girlfriend. She’s his fiancée?!

Being a fiancée was way more serious than being a girlfriend!

It’s over, it’s over, it’s really over today!

“Your son disrespected my fiancée. Paying a price isn’t too much, right?”

Mr. Panter knew his son had to pay a heavy price today. He lowered his head and said, “That’s fair.”

“Dad?”

Mr. Panter took the knife from Erlinda, looking at his son with mixed feelings, “If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not knowing any better and messing with someone you shouldn’t have!”

Chapter 515

“Dad!” Zachary staggered back in disbelief, unable to accept that his father was really going to harm him.

“Which hand of yours touched Arabella?”

Zachary’s voice trembled as he watched his father approaching step by step, “Dad, I won’t do it again.”

“I asked which hand touched Arabella!”

“Dad!” Zachary trembled in fear, tears streaming down his face.

Soon after, a scream echoed from the garden.

Romeo covered Arabella’s eyes, speaking softly, “Don’t look.”

The sight was too bloody.

Arabella moved his hand away, seeing Zachary’s hand bleeding.

Although the tendon was not cut, a long scar was left on his arm. Ordinary doctors probably couldn’t help; he might be scarred for life.

“Mr. McMillian, are you satisfied with this outcome?” Mr. Panter asked after the punishment, not checking his son’s condition first but instead bending over to ask Romeo.

Seeing his humble demeanor, Romeo’s voice remained cold, “You’re asking the wrong person.”

Mr. Panter turned to Arabella quickly, “Ms. Bella, is this acceptable? Can you spare us? I will continue to discipline this unfilial son when we get home!” “Hmm.” Arabella responded indifferently, “You can go now.”

Mr. Panter bowed his head immediately, “Thank you, Ms. Bella, we’ll leave now and won’t bother you again.”

Yolanda pretended to help Zachary up but was pushed away by Mrs. Panter before she could touch him, “You bitch, it’s all your fault!”

Yolanda was taken aback, “Auntie.”

“If it wasn’t for you stirring things up, why would Zachary go after Arabella, trying to stand up for your family?”

Mrs. Panter and her husband helped their son up, clearly despising Yolanda!

Attlee and Olga signaled their daughter not to interfere, but as they were about to leave, they heard Romeo

say, “Wait.”

The Panter family returned in fear, thinking Romeo had changed his mind, “Mr. McMillian.”

Didn’t Arabella agree to let them leave?

“I didn’t say you could leave.”

Realizing Romeo was addressing the Murphy family, the Panthers sighed in relief and quickly left with their son.

Attlee looked at Romeo fearfully, his voice filled with humility and appeasement, “Mr. McMillian, do you have any other instructions?” Instead of answering his question, Romeo turned to Erlinda, “Ms. Archer, can I borrow a few of your men?”

He had only brought Carl with him tonight and was short on manpower.

Erlinda readily agreed, “No problem, use as you wish.”

Romeo spoke coldly, without any unnecessary words, “Take them away, give them a beating.”

Carl stepped forward, grabbing Attlee’s arm first.

Erlinda waved her hand, and several bodyguards stepped forward to grab the others.

“Mr. McMillian, is there a misunderstanding? We have nothing to do with tonight’s incident.”

“It was clearly the Panter boy who touched Arabella, and we didn’t do anything. Please let us go, let us go.”

“Sis, can you say something, sis?”

The sound of Yolanda’s voice annoyed Arabella. Seeing her discomfort, Romeo added, “That woman, while she’s still young, should be taught a lesson.” Arabella was somewhat surprised, not expecting Romeo to pick up on her mood, and even instructed for Yolanda to be beaten more.

The guests were shocked, not expecting to see such dramatic events at tonight’s charity gala.

As the Murphy family was taken away, Erlinda stepped onto the center stage, revealing the charming smile of a mature woman, “I declare, tonight’s charity dinner has come to a perfect end. Thank you all for your participation!”

A perfect end?

Chapter 516

All the guests were once again taken aback, chiming in:

“Absolutely, the event was a smashing success. If anyone asks tomorrow, I’ll tell them the donation segment tonight was unforgettable.”

“Indeed, the Murphy family are as tight as a drum, and I must spread the word about this.”

“Nothing else noteworthy happened, right?”

“My memory is stuck at the donation part.”

“Same here.”

“I’ve had quite a bit to drink tonight. probably won’t remember anything tomorrow.“”

Erlinda watched as they each tried to cover their own backs and said with a smile, “I won’t see you out then.”

“Goodbye, Ms. Archer.”

“Goodbye.”

At this time, screams came from the Murphys in the back garden, but the other guests seemed not to hear. They were busy cracking jokes and leaving the front garden without a glance in the direction of the Murphys‘ trouble!

‘Arabella, is this your fiancé?” Erlinda reached out to shake hands with Romeo, flashing a triumphant smile, “Can’t believe this lad is my niece’s fiancé!”

“Pleased to meet you, Auntie.”

“You’ve got good manners, lad! I don’t feel odd when Arabella calls me auntie, but somehow, when you call me that, I feel I’ve aged a few years!”

“Auntie, you’re as radiant as ever. You’ve not aged a bit.”

“Did you sweet–talk my Arabella into being with you?” Erlinda joked, then turned to Arabella, “I’m looking forward to your wedding.”

That was her stamp of approval!

“Not so soon.” Arabella didn’t reject the idea, which surprised Erlinda.

“We’ve caused some trouble for Ms. Archer tonight.” Kenneth didn’t expect the charity dinner to turn out like this.

“Isn’t it because it’s my turf that I could stand up for Arabella? I’ve been wanting to teach them a lesson, and it’s a relief that the Panter lad beat me to it.”

“We’ll visit again when we get the chance.” Louisa hugged Erlinda warmly, “Feel free to drop by our place too.”

“I’ll definitely come once I replace the time.” Erlinda hugged back, then hugged Arabella.

“Don’t be too hard on those three,” Arabella warned not to kill them.

“Don’t worry, I’ll leave them breathing! I’d love to see them go bankrupt, and it’ll be fun.”

Seeing Erlinda’s excited face, Arabella couldn’t help but laugh, “We’ll be going now.”

“Do visit me when you have time!” Erlinda couldn’t help but nag, “Maybe you could call me once in a while; don’t leave it all to me.”

“Got it.”

“Drive safe on your way back.”

As Erlinda saw them at the door, Louisa suddenly said, “Oh, I just remembered I have some work to do. Bella, you go back with Romeo. The chef’s not feeling well tonight, and no one prepared supper. You guys can grab something to eat wherever you like.”

Arabella was speechless; wasn’t the implication too obvious?

Wasn’t this just a ploy to let them spend more time together, have dinner, and then go home?

“I’ll take good care of Bella.” Romeo was the first to respond.

Chapter 517

On the other side.

The house where Attlee used to live had been sold.

Right next to the old house was a villa owned by an old lady.

Before Olga went to a charity dinner, she had the nanny at home pick the lock of the old lady’s villa and moved in directly.

Otherwise, it’s not sustainable for their family of three and four or five nannies to live in a hotel every day!

Not long after the four or five nannies moved into the new house, a plainly dressed woman suddenly showed up at the villa where Attlee used to live. When she found out Attlee had moved next door, she found the villa next door.

One of the nannies frowned immediately when she saw her and said, “You again? Didn’t I tell you not to come here?”

“I heard Yoli’s engagement party is in a few days.”

The woman spoke humbly, but before she could finish, the nanny rolled her eyes and said, “What’s Yoli’s engagement party got to do with you? Take a look at your own behavior! The Murphy family definitely won’t invite you! If you don’t leave, we’re going to call security!”

At these words, a hint of loss flashed in the woman’s eyes, and she quickly explained, “I’m not trying to attend the engagement party.”

Just then, a van drove up quickly and stopped outside the Murphy family’s house.

Before the nanny and the woman could react, they saw Attlee, Olga, and Yolanda being thrown out of the car.

The van zoomed away like the wind.

The three who were thrown out were all tied up, their faces bruised and battered, and their mouths stuffed with stinky socks.

The nanny stared at this for two seconds before reacting. She yelled, “Master, madam, miss! What happened to you guys? Help! Master, madam, miss are hurt! Get them inside!”

“Yoli? How did you end up like this?” The woman standing outside rushed over to untie Yolanda.

But Yolanda pushed her away, “What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you to stay away from me?”

“Yoli, I just wanted to,”

Before the woman could finish, Yolanda impatiently interrupted her, “You are not my mom! This is my mom! Mom, are you okay? Did you get hurt?”

Yvonne felt very upset.

Olga was helped up by the servants, and as soon as the ropes on her were untied, she slapped the woman.

“I gave you money before, and you didn’t want it. Now you regret it and come back to us?”

Olga didn’t wait for her to answer and started mocking her, “You heard about us spending 1.2 billion US dollars on land today, didn’t you? Now that you know we’re rich, you want to raise your price?”

The nanny beside them glanced at Yvonne and added coldly, “Madam, she also mentioned Yoli’s engagement party.”

“Humph, don’t tell me you want to attend Yoli’s engagement party as her mother? Forget it!”

Watching Olga’s haughty demeanor, Yvonne handed her what she was holding in her arms, enduring the humiliation, and said, “Yoli, I heard you’re getting engaged. This is my engagement gift for you.”

Yolanda frowned when she heard this, and it was clear she knew the shabby bag Yvonne was holding was not anything good.

It’s definitely not a bank card, nor was it valuable jewelry.

Chapter 518

“I know you’re not short on cash, and your engagement party will have everything you could ever want. So I made you a matching set of bedding. It’s a symbol of a deep bond between husband and wife. I wish you happiness forever.”

Olga rolled her eyes. She thought she was going to get something special, but instead, she got a bunch of nonsense!

“I don’t need this; take it back!” Yolanda, holding Olga’s hand, was about to go inside.

“Yoli!” Yvonne hurriedly stopped her, watching her daughter’s unfamiliar back. Tears flashed in her eyes. “This might be the last time I come to see you, and I might not show up again. Just take it, and then I’ll leave!”

This might be the best wedding gift she could give to her former daughter.

Yolanda seemed impatient, signaled the maid, who took the bag directly from Yvonne.

The rude action and disdainful look were undoubtedly insults to Yvonne.

“Miss has accepted it. Can you leave now?”

Yoli

Just as Yvonne was about to say something, Yolanda showed impatience. “I’ve accepted it. What else do you want? Don’t you see we’re hurt? We want to go inside and disinfect the wounds and apply some ointment, okay?”

Tears filled Yvonne’s eyes. She nodded, sobbing, “I wish you happiness.”

Yolanda’s body instantly stiffened.

“Call the property management, tell them to be careful, don’t just let anyone in!” Olga said, as if this was already her home. She was already the mistress here!

Yvonne hadn’t walked far when she heard Olga’s words. She laughed at herself mockingly.

These years, she had raised Yolanda to the age of eighteen.

After Yolanda found her biological parents, Attlee and Olga wanted to give her money as a thank you, but she refused. She just hoped to see Yolanda when she had time, but Yolanda didn’t recognize her, didn’t want to have any relationship with her, and the people of the Murphy family didn’t let her come to visit anymore.

She had come a few times with a thick skin but was driven away each time..

Although she knew that Yoli had found her biological parents now, was living in a wealthy family, and her life must be better than before, Yoli didn’t appreciate her kindness, which made her very sad.

“What a thing! So ugly!” The maid opened the bag as soon as she entered the room, took out the things inside, and laughed while looking at them. “This kind of handiwork, if you didn’t know, you’d think the Murphy family couldn’t afford bedding like it was bought from a roadside stall!”

Olga glanced at it and said coldly, “Throw it away!”

Yoli, even after getting married, can’t use such crude bedding. Otherwise, she’ll have nightmares!

Yolanda glanced at the pattern on the pillowcase and suddenly remembered that when she was a child, Yvonne used to embroider under the light every night to pay her tuition.

Yvonne’s embroidery skills were very superb, and she was especially good at embroidering swans, which were lifelike. In that poor place, whenever someone had a happy event, they liked to ask Yvonne to embroider a pair of swan pillowcases.

With this, Yvonne also made some extra money, paid the tuition, and had money to buy candy for her daughter.

That kind of life was completely different from the Murphy family’s life!

The maid threw the bedding into the trash. She didn’t forget to complain, “In the future, when Yoli marries into the Panter family, she will naturally use the most popular, most comfortable, and most beautiful bedding. I think Yvonne just wants to let the people of the Panter family know that Miss had a disgraceful past, deliberately using this to disgust people! She wants to make Yoli feel uncomfortable.”

Olga didn’t want to hear about Yvonne anymore and waved her hand, “Go get the first aid kit.”

Chapter 519

They were beaten black and blue by Erlinda’s people tonight, and in pain all over, they couldn’t think of anything else.

“Ma’am, hold on a second. I’ll check if there’s a first aid kit in the old lady’s room.”

This villa was never really theirs!

After a while, the nanny finally found a first aid kit, and luckily, some of the medicine was still good.

Attlee, reeling from the pain, slumped on the couch while the nanny cleaned his wounds, “Easy, easy, oh my God, my back!”

“Mom, how could Arabella possibly be Kenneth and Louisa’s biological daughter? And how could she be Romeo’s fiancée? She’s also recognized as Mr. Rollins‘ granddaughter and Ms. Archer’s niece.”

Such high–profile identities, each one more impressive than their own!

The nanny, who was treating Yolanda’s wounds, was taken aback by the news and exchanged glances with her colleagues. They had no idea Arabella was so well–connected!

They had been too cold to her before! Now they were kicking themselves!

Yolanda gritted her teeth on the couch as the nanny treated her wounds, feeling a sense of injustice.

Why? Why did she get all the good things in life?!

Olga, lying on the couch in pain, said, “We, the Murphy family, have raised her for eighteen years without ever asking the Collins family for a penny. They ought to treat us better. Ouch, easy! Are you trying to kill me with pain?”

“I’m sorry, Ma’am, I didn’t mean to hurt you,” the nanny apologized, having been eavesdropping on their conversation and lost her focus.

“Get a grip, Attlee. We’ve been told that not only did their daughter not receive the care she should have from us, but also our current status is all thanks to her! They are already generous by not taking everything we have now, and you still want to ask for child support?” Attlee spoke while wincing in pain.

“I was just saying!” Olga admitted she was in the wrong, “That Ms. Archer was too harsh tonight. She hit us so hard.”

They howled all night, and early next morning, Attlee received a phone call that stunned him, “What did you say?”

After hanging up, he fell onto the couch, dazed.

“What happened?” Olga was scared to see him like this..

“I can’t believe this,” Attlee could barely speak, his mind blank.

Yolanda was slowly coming downstairs, leaning on the railing because of her foot pain, and asked, “Dad, what happened?”

“Attlee, say something! What’s wrong?” Olga was patting his back, bringing him tea, comforting him. It took a while before Attlee came to his senses.

“The plot of land we bought must be developed within a month and cannot be traded or used as collateral for bank loans for five years.”

This meant, for five years, that land can only sit idle in their hands!

They can’t borrow more money from the bank using it, nor can they sell it to someone else, and they must start construction within a month! Otherwise, it’s a breach of contract!

Yolanda was shocked after hearing this!

“What did you say? Is this information accurate?” Olga was even more incredulous, “We are broke. We were hoping to turn our luck around by selling this land! You’re saying we can’t sell it for five years? How are we supposed to pay back the loans we owe to those rural banks, with interest amounting to millions every month?”

And the money they borrowed from other people, they promised to pay interest every month. The bank’s interest plus these people’s interest adds up to more than 300,000 dollars.

The Murphy group’s current operating profit, the net profit per month, was less than 50,000!

How to pay back more than 300,000 dollars?

They simply can’t afford it!

Chapter 520

“Who told you this? Is it true? Did you ask for clarification?” Olga asked hopefully, “Why haven’t we heard of this before?”

“All the big companies knew about this, so the bidders this time are all top–tier companies. They’ve got the dough, so even if they shelf the property for five years after buying it, it won’t affect their cash flow.”

But they just can’t do that!

They’ve borrowed a ton of money, including bank loans and personal loans, even sold some stuff, and finally scraped together $1.2 billion!

They originally planned to flip the property right after buying it, and they had no plans to hold onto it for long!

“The day I won the bid, the documents I signed already mentioned this situation.” Attlee was full of regret.

He was too excited at the time, only thinking about putting his name on the dotted line, and didn’t bother reading all the fine print!

“Also, before the auction started, the organizers had already brought up this issue. But we just heard it through the grapevine, we didn’t look into it because we decided to join the auction last minute.”

Olga felt a wave of darkness wash over her. She reached out to steady herself on the couch, took a moment, then said, “So, the Murphy family is really screwed this time. No wonder so many small companies didn’t dare to take on this property. On one hand, it’s a money issue. On the other hand, after buying it, they have to sit on it for five years.”

They can’t even wait five months, let alone five years!

With so much interest to pay back each month, there’s no way they can keep up!!

“Attlee, what are we going to do?” Olga was on the verge of tears, “Such a big property, we don’t have the spare cash to develop it now, plus the $300,000 interest every month, how can we afford it?”

Attlee also felt like the sky was falling. He remained silent.

Yolanda was shaking all over in disbelief. She originally thought that buying this land would mean the Murphy family could turn their luck around, and she’d jump from being a rich girl in a small family to one in a big family.

But now everything had changed!

If the Panter family found out about this, her engagement party was over!!

Last night Mr. and Mrs. Panter were already pissed. If they found out that the Murphy family didn’t have the funds to develop this land, her future was ruined!!

No! This can’t be happening!

Although she didn’t really like Zachary, at this moment, the Panter family was definitely better off than the Murphy family!

She had to clutch at this lifeline!

“Dad, mom, don’t panic, we still have grandma, right? Grandma still has shares and money, and she should be able to help us get through this for a while!”

As soon as Yolanda said this, Attlee and Olga saw a glimmer of hope!

Right, they still had the old lady!

She still had shares, money, houses, and cars, and she should be able to help!

“Olga, let’s go. We need to replace grandma.”

This time, they had to ask for her help no matter what!

Attlee didn’t even have time to change his clothes, and neither did Olga. They took Yolanda and rushed out.

At the hospital.
