Chapter 1017

Serenity, Liberty, Mrs. Stone, and the others were on their way to the Hunts‘ hometown when Old Mr. Hunt brought his sons and two grandsons to Wiltspoon School. Here they were to talk cash with Serenity again.

Old Mr. Hunt mumbled, “The brat usually stays open on the weekend. She thinks she’s all that now that she’s the wife of a wealthy man. I bet the profit of this shop isn’t much to her now. Mike, maybe we can change the plans and get her to give you the business if the brat refuses to relent.” 1
