You really should get me more gifts to show your gratitude for saving your son\u2019s life.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity\u2019s comment caused the corners of the Hunt elders\u2019 mouths to twitch.<\/div>\n<div>Abigail was so furious that her eyes and veins looked as if they might burst from her head, her expression distorted.<\/div>\n<div>Yet, she still did not dare to raise a hand against Serenity.<\/div>\n<div>A flicker of amusement danced in Zachary\u2019s eyes as he observed Serenity skillfully silencing the elders without lifting a finger. This woman was fascinating!<\/div>\n<div>\u201cSerenity.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity\u2019s eldest aunt, Katelyn, interjected, \u201cWe never said you were to blame. Noah was at fault. It\u2019s just that you two are cousins\u2014very close relatives, in fact. We\u2019re all family here. If there\u2019s a conflict, we should resolve it privately. Had you informed us, we would have scolded him. There was no need to involve the police.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWe wanted to bail him out, but our request was denied. Did you say something to your backer to make it impossible for us to secure his release? Serenity, I know you and your sister harbor resentment toward us because of the past, but we are family. A family consists of its members, so let\u2019s not drag outsiders into our affairs.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>What she essentially implied was that Serenity should keep her backer out of the situation and refrain from using them to suppress their family.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity felt that Zachary\u2019s approach of taking direct action was the right one. It was futile to reason with these people. They seemed to believe that just because she and Noah were cousins, even if Noah committed a crime, it should not be reported to the authorities.<\/div>\n<div>With a cold tone, she replied, \u201cEvery time I hear you emphasize our blood relationship and the fact that we\u2019re a\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFamily,\u201d I can\u2019t help but laugh. It\u2019s no surprise that you all can lead such fulfilling lives. You are thick-skinned, shameless, and bold enough to do so. If someone is bold enough, they become invincible, and you all seem to embody that invincibility. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know I despise you, yet you still come here and lecture me from your supposed position of authority as elders? Aren\u2019t you embarrassed? I\u2019m showing you some respect right now; otherwise, I would have swept you out the door with my broom! What kind of elders are you? Disgraceful!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Katelyn\u2019s face flushed bright red. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cDid you hear that? I warned you before that we can\u2019t be polite with her given her attitude! We need to teach her a lesson on behalf of her father! She shows no respect for her elders and is bringing shame to him!\u201d Abigail shouted. <\/p>\n<p>The moment they mentioned her late father, Serenity couldn\u2019t contain her anger any longer. She swiftly grabbed the broom, raised it high, and chased her aunts and uncles out of her bookshop. <\/p>\n<p>Talking to them felt like a waste of breath. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy father? My father?! How dare you bring him up?! How did he treat you when he was alive? And how did you treat my sister and me after he passed? You should go ahead and complain to him! Tell him I have no respect for my elders! If you can, bring him back to scold me! Let me make it clear: aside from my parents, none of you have the right to reprimand me or stand before me as an \u2018elder\u2019!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Serenity chased Stuart Hunt and the others out of the shop, still fuming as she scolded them, drawing the attention of many onlookers. <\/p>\n<p>Unfazed by the crowd, Serenity continued her pursuit and tirade until Stuart Hunt and the others finally jumped into their car to escape. They let out a sigh of relief once inside.<\/p>\n<p>The door closed behind them, and fortunately, they were quick enough to avoid being hit by Serenity\u2019s broom. Not wanting to linger any longer, they quickly started the car and drove away. Serenity held the broom in one hand, her other hand resting on her hip as she scolded, \u201cThe moment my parents passed away, you all fought over their life insurance payout, seized the house they built, and forced my sister and me out of the village. Over the years, you never offered us any help. Now, you dare to scold me and pretend to be an elder? You won\u2019t get anything from me!\u201d She spoke this way to explain herself to the crowd of onlookers, ensuring that her reputation as a beautiful woman remained intact.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"text-chapter-toolbar\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\"><i class=\"icon ion-md-settings\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 265 \u201cCome on, thank me.
