Married at First Sight

Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei Chapter 102

The despair, anger, sadness, and helplessness did not go amiss between the lines. Tears filled Serenity‘s eyes as she flipped through her sister‘s diary while accounts of the past flooded her mind.

Dad‘s side of the family and Mom‘s side of the family were ripping each other apart over the insurance money. All of them were trying to get a bigger cut. No one cared about Serenity and me. No one talked about adopting us and taking care of us. Mom and Dad were dead, but all they could think about was money. What about our feelings? Is this what they call a family?

Mom, Dad, come home. Do you know what your daughters are going through now? How could you leave me and Serenity behind?

It was raining. Was God feeling sorry because my sister and I lost our parents? We didn‘t have a mom and dad anymore. I cried for Mom and Dad, but they could no longer hear me. I looked at Serenity‘s clueless face and cried. She cried too.

Serenity had been asking me when Mom and Dad were coming home. She missed them.

I held my sister and cried. I told her that Mom and Dad were never returning. They went to Heaven and

abandoned us. We have become orphans, children without a mom and dad…]

(To get more money, Granddad and Grandmom said that we won‘t owe them anything if we agree to give them six hundred thousand dollars. I mean, they have other children who can help with their retirement.

All they want is money, money, money. Money is more important than family. Is money more important than their granddaughters? The blood money was an exchange for their son and daughter–in–law‘s

lives. Don‘t they have any consideration for their son and daughter–in law with all that fuss about money? Oh, I guess they don‘t care about the dead since Mom and Dad are gone.

In the end, they took the money. Granddad and Grandmom got six hundred thousand dollars, and Mom‘s side of the family didn‘t want to miss out either, so they wanted the remaining half of the insurance money. What are we going to do if they take away all of Mom and Dad‘s life insurance?

The mayor couldn‘t stand it anymore and insisted that some money be left to us for our future and education. In the end, Mom‘s parents took four hundred thousand dollars. They also said we didn‘t have to be responsible for them anymore and vice versa. Mom wasn‘t their biological daughter anyway. The four hundred thousand dollars was compensation for raising Mom.)

(Granddad and Grandmom hit me and Serenity with a stick to chase us out. They said that since Mom and Dad are gone, the house now belongs to them. I tried to refute it in tears. Mom and Dad built that house. Why can‘t Serenity and I live there anymore? This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

The townspeople took pity on us, but they couldn‘t argue over Grandmom. My uncles and cousins are on my grandparents‘ side. The townspeople were told to mind their own business.

Our stuff was thrown on the floor. They smashed Mom‘s photo frame and said they‘d burn Mom and Dad‘s pictures if we didn‘t leave right now.)

[It was raining heavily again. Holding a photo of Mom and Dad, I took Serenity‘s hand and carried our light luggage as we reluctantly moved forward in the rain. We left in the end. Serenity and I are only kids. There‘s no chance we can beat the adults.

I‘m sorry, Mom and Dad. Serenity and I are useless. We can‘t even protect our home…)

The netizens could picture the events as they read Liberty‘s diary entries. Many expressed in the comments that they were saddened to tears.

There were townsfolk who stood up for Serenity and Liberty, accusing the Hunts of crossing the line. It finally got through to the netizen‘s head that they had been fooled.

The supposed grandparents had never raised the granddaughters, nor did they pay for their education. As a matter of fact, the grandparents took a chunk of the

insurance payout after their son and daughter–in–law passed away in an accident.
