My Billionaire Family 456

Chapter

456

Since Garrick suddenly died, the Hawkins residence had becalmost entirely deserted.

Gina was rarely hthese days, always heading back to her parents’ place with money.

Rita locked herself in the study all day, not setting foot outside.

As for Hannia, she seemed to have long dissociated herself from this family.

Rita's servants were still the sones from the Hawkins residence at the foot of Azure Peak, the ones who had

cwith her when she married Rayburn. After Rita got divorced and moved back to the Hawkins residence,

those servants returned with her.

At that moment, Nellie knocked on the study door with a tray of fruit.

"Cin," said Rita from inside.

Nellie pushed open the door and saw Rita, who was always elegantly dressed even when staying at home. Nellie

said, "Ms. Hawkins, have sfruit. "It's good for your health and keeps you looking radiant."

Rita replied, "Alright, just leave it there."

Nellie

put the fruit down and carefully asked Rita, "Ms. Hawkins, I've been with you for decades. Seeing you like this

now, | can't help but feel sorry. "You're living alone. Why not move to Fresburg like Ms. Yulia Muller?

"At least there, you'll be closer to your son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter. They can take better care of

you, so you won't feel so lonely. "After all, you need someone to be around you."

Rita laughed at Nellie's words and chuckled bitterly. She said, "Age is just a number. What's the big deal?

"My roots are right here in Betrico. I'm not going anywhere.

"Don't worry, Nellie. | understand you care about me. Yulia is a caring girl, and she'll be back soon to stay with

me."

Nellie didn't know what to say. Having been with the Hawkins family since she was a child and knowing Rita's

determined nature, Nellie knew that Rita wouldn't stop at anything to get what she wanted.

In the past, Rita found a way to marry Rayburn. It seemed straits never changed.

Nellie gently shook her head and said, "Alright then, as long as you're happy and comfortable.

"I'll be leaving now. If you want anything to eat, just letknow

The study's door closed once more, leaving Rita alone in the room.

She didn't eat the fruit that Nellie had just brought in. Instead, she picked up her glass from the coffee table and

took a sip.

After drinking swater, Rita placed the glass back where it was.

Next to the glass was a newspaper from yesterday.

On the front page, a bold red headline caught the eye: [Ghost Hand Completely Wiped Out]

There were also several equally attention-grabbing subheadings Leader of the Underground Group Ghost Handl.

Matthew Quinton, Was Shot Yesterday]

The content read: [All of the Quinton family's assets have been frozen and confiscated. Matthew's wife has been

sentenced to the death penalty]

Rita had already read the newspaper, but she glanced at it again

At first, she seemed indifferent, but then her eyes seemed to spark with something intense.

It was as if her gaze was about to kill someone, sending chills down one's spine.

At spoint, Rita had another photograph in her hand-a picture of Cherise, which captured her alluring and

vibrant smile.

But it wasn't exactly Cherise. The photo had yellowed a bit. Actually, it was a photo of Megan.

The next moment, Rita clenched her fist, crumpling the photo into a ball as if pouring all her resentment into

doing so.

Rita said with hatred, "When | was young, you opposed me. What now? Even in death, you won't leavealone.

"Well, you couldn't beatthen, and now it's your descendant's turn. The result will be the same.

"Even if | can't win, so what? Worst case scenario, I'll just destroy her."

Suddenly, someone knocked on the study door repeatedly.

Rita glanced at the door, the fury in her eyes disappearing instantly as she said, "Cin."

Hearing the voice, the person outside pushed open the wooden door.

With a creak, the wooden door opened, and the person entering called out to Rita, "Grandma!"

Rita, seeing who it was, didn't show much surprise but smiled warmly. She exclaimed, "Yulia, you're back!"

It was indeed Yulia, and her luggage was still outside, showing that she had just rushed back from the airport.

Yulia nodded and said, "Yeah, Grandma. | thought it over and decided to cback."

Rita smiled contentedly and beckoned Yulia to sit next to her.

Obediently, Yulia walked over and sat beside Rita.

With affection, Rita reached out to stroke Yulia's hair and said, "Good girl, you always keep Grandma in your

heart.

"Have you made up your mind? Have you figured out what you truly want?"

Rita's voice sounded gentle, like a grandmother deeply concerned for her beloved grandchild.

Yulia nodded again and replied, "Yes, during my days in Fresburg, | thought it through.

"It's now or never while I'm still young;

| don't want to miss out anything, so I'm giving myself one last chance.

"But Grandma, can you promisethat if it doesn't work out this time, you'll cto Fresburg with me?"
