Arthur added, "Although the old house is a bit run-down, it's debt-free and can be exchanged for multiple new ones.

"Our parents are willing to give you this old house as a gift, so we're really doing our best."

The Stevens family stared at the documents in shock at the amounts listed.

They didn't dare to imagine that the Donovan family would borrow so much money.

The Stevens family thought, 'No wonder the Donovan family became rich in just two years. It turns out it was all borrowed money.* Brandon scoffed, "Our family owes so much. If we can't repay it one day, we could easily go bankrupt, end up in jail, or even be chased by creditors. V "If you're interested, I can introduce you to some loan sharks. You can borrow as much as you want. If you can't pay it back, you could always sell a ki Despite the Stevens family's greed and arrogance toward the Donovans, they didn't have the guts to borrow hundreds of thousands of dollars or even They were just lazy and selfish, always scheming to take advantage of others without putting in any effort.

"No, no need." They all shook their heads at this. "We're family, and since your money is borrowed, we wouldn't want to trouble you further.

"All we want is this relocation house. Just help us find good jobs, and that'll be enough."

Arthur seized the opportunity to say, "Let's

go upstairs to see the house first. You can discuss whether to give it to and then we'll go through the transfer."

Maria took out the property deed, saying, "Look, I've brought the property deed with me. Let's keep it with Grandpa."

The eyes of the Stevens family lit up.

As long as the deed was in their hands, they felt the house was secured.

Ronan snatched the deed from Maria, turning around to hide it in the high waistband of his pants, covering it tightly with his outer garment. "Claire is in Maria and Arthur exchanged sly glances.

The Stevens family, having never seen much of the world, thought that having the property deed meant they controlled the house, and that even the D family couldn't do anything about it.

In reality, this was a misunderstanding.

For the rightful owner, it wasn't hard to go through the relevant institutions to report a lost property deed and apply for a new one.

The Stevens family could hold onto that deed, but they were just setting themselves up for conflict.

Temporarily, the Stevens family stopped arguing and followed Arthur upstairs.

Two years ago, the Donovan family renovated the old house in preparation for Athena's arrival. The walls had been painted, the tiles replaced, and the kitchen and bathroom fixtures were nearly new.

With nearly no one living there for the past two years, the house was well-

maintained, and the furniture and appliances were complete, making it look quite decent.

The Stevens family was surprisingly somewhat satisfied.

Joel eagerly remarked, "The house is a bit small, but our kids are little, so it's perfect for our family of five."

"What are you thinking?" Gavin replied, displeased. "We have to take care of Mom, Dad, and Grandma and Grandpa. This house should belong to us. "We can take care of the elders too." Joel shot back. "You have two kids, but we have three. If this house belongs to us, we can even get an extra new house."

"Exactly," Isla added. "At most, once we get a new house, we can give you one."

"Don't be ridiculous! Do you think we

can't do the math?" Gavin's wife scolded. "Grandpa, Grandma, and Mom and Dad need four houses in total, while your family only needs five. That ma

Gavin raised his voice and said,

"Traditionally, the eldest son inherits the family business, and the elders should be supported by the eldest son. The house should belong to us, and we'll share one new house with you, which will be fair." Content

Gavin's wife added, "The elders have lived with us for so long, and now you want to care for them? Isn't that disgusting?"

Joel hated hearing talk of age differences and immediately retorted, “We're all children of our parents. Why do you get to claim the house while we car

"The house in the county was bought with money found by the family, but ours was bought with our hard-

earned money and loans. After all the losses we've taken, you still want to bully us?"

Isla chimed in, "Yes, the elders live with you, but they have always lived in the mountains. Stop pretending to be filial."

As both sides argued fiercely over such significant interests, the younger children were scared and began to cry.

Several elderly members were busy either calming the kids or trying to mediate the fight.

The room quickly turned chaotic and tense.

Arthur and the others had no interest in their squabble.

Brandon discreetly signaled Arthur and then quietly pulled Maria aside, sneaking out without a sound.

After a moment, Arthur said gently, "You all stay here tonight to see how it feels. Let me know tomorrow give the house to." Then he made his exit.

By this point, Gavin and Joel had already started fighting, and the Stevens family couldn't care less about the Donovan family.

Thus, Arthur and the others managed to withdraw safely and left the building with Athena.

"I was really afraid they would come to live with us," Maria sighed, patting her chest. If they did, I feel like our villa would be furious and accuse us of m

Arthur joked, “If they really moved into the villa, I'd have to quickly take Josie and Dolli and leave to avoid the storm."

Brandon grinned, "Don't worry. As long as I'm here, they won't get in."

Athena's mouth opened slightly, and she secretly thought, 'Wow it seems the Stevens family has left quite a psychological shadow on the Donovan family.

Back at home, Claire and the others had obviously noticed how hard Arthur and the others had fought against the Stevens family, so they had prepare

As soon as Athena and the others arrived home, they were greeted with delicious food that helped heal the mental scars inflicted by the Stevens famil

After finishing dinner, Athena returned to her room, sitting in front of her computer, ready to continue revising Zayn's script.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

It was said that when Zayn was in

et

school, he was a classic case of a student excelling in sciences but struggling in humanities. He aced his science subjects but barely passed the literature ones, which was why his scriptwriting wasn't great.

However, the content of the script was incredibly authentic and moving.

Even Athena was touched.

She had enough reason to suspect that the script reflected Zayn's personal experiences. otherwise, it couldn't have been so impactful.

She had a premonition that once the script was finished and filmed, it would surely cause a sensation and even make history.

Just as she was writing, her phone rang.

Cora was calling her. "Joy is preparing to return home. I've already given the order to halt the investigation into Zilvia.

"I'll send you the information we've gathered so far, and I'm waiting for your next instructions."
