Chapter 61

“Grandmom is sick. It’s liver cancer, but the good news is that it’s at an early stage,” Mike said on the phone. “The doctor recommended going for treatment in the city. You and your sister have settled down in the city and know how to get around. Make a hospital appointment for Grandmom. We’ll set out in a bit and take Grandmom to the hospital. “This way, Grandmom can see a specialist right away when she arrives. I heard that you must pay some sort of deposit for a treatment, so don’t forget to make the payment. Although your parents aren’t around, she’s your grandmother too. You girls have never contributed to Grandmom and Granddad’s living expenses. Now that Grandmom is sick, you should cover for her medical expenses to make up for the neglected family support.”

Serenity grimaced as her cousin went on about the plan.

She lost her parents at the age of ten. Serenity and Liberty then received their life insurance payout of 1.2 million dollars. Fair enough for Grandmom and Granddad to want a share since they were their dad’s parents. As the sisters were underaged then, the grandparents got a bigger share than they deserved. Serenity also knew that the grandparents took half of the insurance money and divided it among her uncles and

aunts. Each uncle received a hundred and fifty thousand dollars while the two aunts got a share of twenty thousand bucks each. The rest was for the grandparents’ retirement.

Although Serenity was only ten back then, she remembered every single detail.

It had not been forgotten that the grandparents made it official through a written agreement , witnessed by the town officials and Serenity’s maternal side of the family, that the sisters did not have to pay for the grandparents’ living expenses so long as the sisters gave up a bigger portion of the insurance payout to the grandparents. The contract was signed and sealed by the grandparents, uncles, and aunts as well as both of them sisters.
