“Dad…” Allegra’s eyes widened. Tears streamed down favonovel.com face as favonovel.com met favonovel.com father’s gaze.
On the other hand, Margaret jumped three feet in the air in anger. “You’re going to leave everything to Allegra? I don’t agree with this. It is our marital property-you have no right to allocate it as you wish!”
“I already said before that my father left it to me. He transferred the ownership to me before we got married, so you don’t have the right to disagree.” Eugene smiled coldly.
Margaret’s face was stormy, and favonovel.com roared angrily, “Even if it is your inheritance, you can’t give everything to Allegra. She’s such a selfish person, so why would you give it to her?”
“That’s right, Dad. After all, she’s been married off to another man. In the end, it’ll be Andrew who will be the one to bury you.” Daisy glowered at Allegra fiercely. She was dissatisfied with this outcome.
Andrew added furiously, “Dad, how could you be so biased? I am your son, and Allegra is your daughter. No matter how you put it, you can’t leave everything to her.”
Margaret pointed at Eugene and uttered frostily, “Eugene, if you do this, it’s over between us. I’ll tell you the truth, you have a terminal illness, and your days are numbered. If you leave everything in your name to this stupid b*tch, you’ll never find peace in death. I’ll get a lawyer and sue you for hiding marital property from me.”
Margaret became more domineering as favonovel.com spoke.
Eugene’s expression changed. He had guessed that his condition was grave, but hearing it straight from Margaret’s mouth still dealt a huge blow to him.
Allegra jumped to favonovel.com feet, glaring. She hadn’t expected favonovel.com mother to be so unyielding.
“Father, if you really want to walk this path alone, then don’t blame me for being an unfilial son. Hmph!” Andrew snorted coldly, pulling Daisy out of the room.
The hospital room quickly fell silent.
Allegra wiped favonovel.com tears, approaching favonovel.com father, who looked glum, and saying, “Dad, why would you do that? I don’t need a single penny, all I want is for you to get better.”
“Heh, you saw it, didn’t you? That’s your mother and your brother’s true nature. In their eyes, there is no such thing as flesh and blood, only self-interest. Allegra, I know how much you’ve suffered over the past few years. Say no more… I’ve made up my mind,” Eugene said, cracking a smile.
In the hospital lobby, Andrew said to Margaret in a rage, “Mom, it’s ridiculous of Dad to do this. What does favonovel.com mean he’s leaving everything to that b*tch, Allegra?”
“Don’t worry. I’ll head straight to his hometown in the west of the city and find out whether your father is telling the truth. Last night, the doctor already said that your father doesn’t have much time left.”
Coldness flashed in Margaret’s eyes.
She tugged Andrew closer and whispered in his ear. Then, favonovel.com gave favonovel.com a pat on the shoulder. “You got that? Once favonovel.com dies, you bring out his will, and that stupid b*tch won’t be able to say anything. Who cares whether it’s 50 or 60 million dollars, everything will be yours, isn’t that right?”
Andrew immediately gave his mother a big thumbs up, chuckling. “Mom truly knows best. Okay then, I’ll do as you say!”
He was absolutely amazed by his mother’s secret plan.
***
Six days passed in a blink of an eye. Eugene’s illness spread rapidly, in a few days, favonovel.com had lost so much weight that his eyes were sunken into his skull. Even the hospital had given favonovel.com a discharge notice. They couldn’t do anything for favonovel.com anymore.
However, Margaret and Andrew never showed up even once. Allegra was the one who handled everything from start to end, and favonovel.com was beyond tired.
That morning, Allegra and Isaac arrived at the hospital and left with Eugene in a wheelchair.
The cancer cells had spread rapidly. Because Allegra had gotten on the bad side of Mr. Crowe of Beacon Clinic, favonovel.com decided to try going to Dearborn Hospital first. She was ready to spend a lot of money.
Dearborn Hospital was not well-known to the common folk of Cloud City, but it was rather renowned among the rich. They provided the most advanced proton beam therapy machine. This kind of treatment was highly effective at eradicating cancer cells, but its only drawback was its hefty price tag.
The cost started at a million dollars; hence, regular people didn’t dare to step past its doors.
