by Lucas 14:05,Oct 30,2023
"If you are poor in the busy city, no one cares about you, but if you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives. If you don't believe it, you can drink wine at the table, but only the rich and noble people will be honored with each cup..."
"Dad, please don't feel sad. It's not been a year or two since they've been like this."
After leaving Yates's house, Carver bought some medicinal materials for Brett bone regeneration and conditioning before returning home. But as soon as he arrived outside the courtyard gate, he heard Brett sighs and his sister Cornelia Larsen's comforting voice.
Wondering what those relatives were up to, Carver pushed open the iron door and said, "I'm back."
"Elder brother!"
A slender, pretty girl in a white dress ran over to him in surprise, threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly, "You are really back, I thought she was joking when mom told me."
Cornelia, who was only sixteen years old when he left, had grown from a young girl to a big girl.
But the relationship between brother and sister, which is thicker than water, has not faded after five years of separation.
Carver patted her back and said, "You have grown into a beautiful woman and you are still so clingy to me. Be careful that your future boyfriend becomes jealous of me."
Letting go of Carver, Cornelia stuck out her tongue playfully, "Whoever dares to be jealous of you, then I will break up with him. And as you said before, if I can't find a boyfriend, you will support me for the rest of my life.”
After rubbing Cornelia's head, Carver said dotingly, "Silly girl!"
"By the way, I just heard you mention our uncle and the others. What's wrong?"
Mentioning those relatives, Cornelia snorted, "When our family was doing well, we used to rush to please them, but now our family is in decline, and we don't even invite them to a meal. So, dad is angry!"
Brett and his wife wanted to celebrate Carver's return. In addition to asking Cornelia to come back from school, they also contacted their uncle Darren Larsen and their uncle Potter Lyon's family.
But the uncle's family said he was not free and had to visit to his in-laws' house in the evening. At uncle's house, aunt Elsa Carnell answered the phone and said directly that Adela was looking for a reason to borrow money and hung up the phone.
Thinking of comparing the past with his current relatives, Brett sighed coldly.
Carver felt guilty. He knelt down and held Brett's hand and said, "Dad, if it weren't for me, our family wouldn't be like this. Now that I'm back, I will definitely let you all live a good life and let those who dislike the poor and love the rich relatives regret it!"
Cornelia echoed, "Yes, when my brother comes back, our family will definitely be able to return to the past soon. When the time comes, uncle and the others will be shameless to come our home again, and I will humiliate them."
Brett felt much relieved by his children's words, "Two silly children. As long as you are doing well and have a family and a career, we can leave those relatives alone. It doesn't mean much."
That was what he said, but Carver could tell that it was not what Brett was thinking.
However, Carver did not point it out, "Dad, I bought some medicinal materials to treat your broken bones and damaged meridians first. I will wait for the other medicinal materials to be in place, and it will take me at most a month..."
"Two old guys, it's time to sign today."
The iron door was suddenly kicked open with a bang, and a young man with a python tattoo on his arm walked in with seven or eight gangsters.
Hearing the noise, Adela, who was making Carver's bed inside the house, ran out. Her face became very sad, "Go away, our family will never sign it!"
Carver frowned and stood up, "What's going on?"
Cornelia said angrily, "Our area is going to be demolished. But the developer is too evil. The compensation for land and houses is only 15,100 dollars per square meters. Our parents agreed to it because they were afraid of getting into trouble, but when they came to our house, these gangsters said only 4,000 dollars per square meter!"
Jefpombert City is an important economic city in the Dragon Country, with house prices in the city center exceeding 200,000 dollars. Although their home is located on the edge of the city, the price will never be less than 20,000 dollars per square meter.
Now other people's families are being squeezed to 15,000,
dollars and their family are being squeezed to 4,000 dollars.
There is no difference from grabbing!
Brother Nealon licked his lips and stared at Cornelia lewdly, "Little beauty, how about you stay with me for a few days, and I secretly give your family an extra 2,000 dollars? Otherwise, according to Mr. Clement's wishes, your family will only give 4,000 dollars. "
Cornelia said angrily, "Shameless, hurry up..."
Suddenly the air temperature dropped sharply, Cornelia couldn't help shivering, and what she was about to say was interrupted.
Brother Nealon and the other gangsters felt heavy in their hearts at the same time, as if they were being pressed down by a huge boulder.
When they felt something, they saw Carver staring at them with a gloomy expression.
Cornelia woke up suddenly, her red lips twitching, "That's awful!"
Brett and his wife also turned pale. They had only been paying attention to these gangsters and seemed to have forgotten that Carver was back.
Because the Mr. Clement' mentioned by Brother Nealon's was Kolt, who forced Carver to run away from home and caused the Larsen family to go bankrupt. The company that developed this area was Skysess Group a subsidiary of the Clement family's Skysess Group.
Because of this, other people still have 15,000 dollars, but theirs only has 4,000 dollars!
Brother Nealon shook his head, thinking that it was probably his illusion, and said impatiently, "Stop wasting your fucking time. You have to sign today's word, and you have to sign it if you don't."
"The Mr. Clement you are talking about is Kolt? Is their family developing this area?"
Carver spoke coldly, with murderous intent pulsing in his eyes.
Well aware of his son's hatred for Kolt, Adela hurriedly said, "Carver, don't worry about this matter. The 4,000 dollars is just 4,000 dollars. At most, we have to pay a down payment for a small apartment. Our family can squeeze in first and wait for you later. "You and Cornely will change to a bigger house after they make a career."
If this happened and Kolt found out about Carver return, Kolt, who had not found Carver to teach him a lesson, would definitely take revenge again.
They had lost Carver for five years and could no longer force Carver to leave his hometown.
Carver already got the answer from Adela's attitude.
He couldn't help but sneer, "Kolt, that's interesting!"
He also thought about waiting two days before settling the score with Kolt, but he never thought that Kolt would never stop causing harm to their family.
Brother Nealon felt very uncomfortable with Carver's eyes and cursed, "Damn it, who do you think you are? Mr. Clement's reputation is that you can..."
Bang!
Carver picked up a small earthen pot with his left foot and threw it out, hitting Brother Nealon squarely on the head.
Brother Nealon screamed in pain, covered his bleeding head and said angrily, "Damn it, you dare to touch me……ah!"
Suddenly Carver came in front of him, slapped him on the mouth, slapped him to the ground on the spot, and broke two teeth, "I touched you again!"
Adela expression changed drastically, "Carver, don't do anything, Kolt will take revenge on you."
"Brother is so handsome!" Cornelia eyes lit up.
Brother Nealon covered his mouth and said bitterly, "Come on, kill this guy!"
The four gangsters reacted and rushed towards Carver quickly. The lively neighbors around them shook their heads secretly. They felt that Carver was going to be in bad luck now and would probably be forced to run away from home again to avoid revenge.
"Cornely, my dear parents."
Carver stepped forward indifferently.
The gangster at the front started punching, but without knowing what was going on, Carver kicked him in the chest. Two ribs were broken, and he vomited blood and fell to the ground.
