Chapter 168
Larissa managed to hurry back to the hotel before the start of her attemoon shit. However, as soon as she entered the lobby, Livie frantically gestured at her, mouthing the words, “Take the back door!”
Many of the employees in the lobby were aware of Larissa’s previous attempts to avoid Jenine by using the back door. Given Livie’s actions, Larissa assumed that Janine had come again,
It was plausible. The lawyer’s letter sent by Dylan Shields had arrived at the Hardy lam ly the moming before, and Janine was the one who received it. It was about time that Janine came to her.
Lanssa lightened her grip on her bag and tumed to leave, but it was too late. Footsteps followed closely behind her, but they were agile and light, not sounding like the steps of an elderly woman
‘Stop!”
A figure swiltly darted before her, blocking her way with its arms. Larissa was forced to halt and, upon a closer look, she was surprised to see that it was Andrew Hardy, which wasn’t too far from her initial guess.
“What’s wrcre? Trying to run away out of guilt?” Andrew sneered.
Composing herself, she calmly asked, “What do I have to feel guilty about?”
“After all that chaos and destruction you brought to our family, don’t you feel quilly? Andrew asked, his gaze filed with resentment.” Larissa, do you have no shame or conscience?
“Please understand this. Larissa patiently masored with him. “I didn’t initiate any of those incidents. I don’t want to be entangled with your family anymore. Sc. please tell your mother to relum the received rent, and I will pretend this never happened. Otherwise, well take it to court and it won’t look good for anyone.”
“Why should we return the rent?” Andrew asked indignantly. “The property certificate clearly states my brother’s name, and even if he’s
brother dead, my parents still have a share in this house. Why should you have it all to yourself?”
Having explained that multiple times to different parties. Larissa was getting tired of it
“Fine, I’ll have my lawyer explain what the law says about this property. You won’t listen to me anyway.” she said, rubbing her throbbing temples, pretending to make a call to Dylan.
“Hey Andrew attempted to grab her phone, but Larissa quickly stepped back, moving out of his reach.
“What are you doing? She sternly scolded him. “There are surveillance cameras in the lobby of the Regal Dynasty Hotel. If you dare touch me, il cat the police immediately!
Glaring at her liercely, he reluctantly retracted his hand. Standing a few feet away from her, he did not dare to take another step closer,
“Even if this property was llegally obtained by my brather, you’re the one who caused his death. Aren’t you willing to compensale us with this property? Unable to stand on legal grounds, he resorted to moral.coercion.
But ever since the revelations of their family’s dirty laundry in Zero’s live stream Larissa no longer cared about her image. She was not afraid of him spreading these rumors about her.
If it came to that she would send him another lawyer’s letter, accusing him of delamation, With Dylan as her lawyer and her friend, she was adept at handling such matters. However, in front of Andrew, she couldn’t afford to lose. Otherwise, it would only encourage the rest of the family to be even more audacious.
