Be’s hands stopped moving.
She suddenly realized she was too anxious.
But she didn’t want Kristian to notice anything unusual, so she stood up, smiled, and said, “Indeed, my memory is getting worse recently.
But it’s okay.
I can discuss a date with Ste and take her back to Dorburn.
By then, we can also go through the property transfer procedures.
”
Kristian didn’t show any expression on his face.
But deep in his heart, he was already nervous.
“Why are you in such a hurry to transfer your property? You are still so young.
Enjoy life first.
There is no need to handle your property in advance.
” Kristian tried to persuade Be.
“Although Ste is our daughter, she just came back to us recently.
We don’t know her that much yet.
Our rtionship with her—”
But before he could finish his words, Be interrupted him angrily, “What do you mean by that?”
Be frowned, not giving him a chance to exin at all.
“Before, you suggested that I transfer all the assets to Elizabeth as soon as possible.
Why did you suddenly change your attitude when it came to Ste? Ste grew up without us by her side.
Shouldn’t we make it up to her?”
Kristian hastily exined, “No, no, no.
That’s not what I mean.
What I want to say is we didn’t raise Ste.
I’m just being cautious.
What if her attitude toward you changes after you give all your assets to her?”
His words only angered Be.
“So, you’re saying that the one we raised is trustworthy? Yes, Elizabeth grew up by our side.
But what did she do? She tried to kill me.
Ste, on the contrary, had been worried about my health even before she found out about our rtionship.
Isn’t that enough to prove that you are wrong?”
What Elizabeth did had always been a thorn in Be’s heart.
Every time she thought of it, she felt sad.
It hurt her that the daughter she had trusted and doted on for so many years had a vicious heart.
This also made her feel that Ste’s kindness was rare.
“I’m not blind.
I can see who truly cares for me.
No matter what the reason is, I’m willing to give everything I have to Ste.
I don’t understand why you are trying to stop me.
”
Kristian could tell that Be was really angry.Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.
So, his attitude softened.
“Calm down… You’ve misunderstood me.
I’m just worried about you.
”
Be pursed her lips.
Then, she said, “Don’t waste your time persuading me.
I have already made up my mind.
”
Kristian was furious because of her stubbornness.
But, of course, he didn’t dare to show it on his face.
Instead, he hugged her and said, “Okay.
I know what you are thinking.
It’s my fault.
I shouldn’t have been so suspicious.
Ste is indeed a good girl.
Besides, those assets are yours.
It’s all up to you.
”
Be struggled to break free from his e
mbrace, but she failed.
Kristianpromised.
“Well, since you have already decided, make an appointment with Ste.
I’ll make arrangements for you when you go back.
”
Be’s expression softened upon hearing this.
Although Kristian’s tone was very calm when he spoke, a hint of malice shed across his eyes.
He thought maybe it was time to take some action.
As long as Be and Ste were killed on their way to Dorburn, Be’s property would naturally belong to him as her husband.
And if they died in Dorburn, Matthew would not be able to find out anything.
In the rk family home…
Ste and Matthew had been summoned for a family dinner, with Lindsay also present.
“Ste, Matthew, wee back,” Lucia greeted them warmly, inviting them to sit at the dining table.
Soon, they were exchanging updates about their daily routines.
