Adriana rolled her eyes. \u201cThis house is mine. It has nothing to do with Curtis or the Lincolns.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah looked incredulous, then quickly figured it out. \u201cAdriana, you\u2019re an orphan. Where would you get the money to buy a villa like this? Do you even know how much this place costs? Even if it\u2019s yours, Curtis must\u2019ve paid for it. And his money belongs to the Lincolns. Got it?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEven if his money belongs to the Lincolns, it has nothing to do with you, right? Your dad is just the Lincolns\u2018 butler. That doesn\u2019t make him the owner,\u201d Adriana said, finding Savannah ridiculous.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean by that? My dad has devoted decades to the Lincolns. Mr. Harold personally groomed me as his successor. The Lincolns are our family. I have the right to protect every last cent Mr. Harold left behind,\u201d Savannah started again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana thought Savannah had serious issues. The Lincolns treated her too well and spoiled her into this.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She almost wished Yolanda were here. If Yolanda were around, she\u2019d probably be roasting Savannah in a hundred creative ways by now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI already told Denton to come over for dinner tonight. When\u2019s Curtis getting here?\u201d Savannah walked straight into the kitchen without any sense of boundaries, grabbed a drink from the fridge, and drank it while complaining. \u201cWhy do you like this brand of coconut water? It tastes awful. You should get Curtis that other brand instead. It\u2019s expensive, but it\u2019s premium.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana honestly thought Savannah was unwell. \u201cLet\u2019s reschedule dinner. I\u2019m cooking at home tonight. It probably won\u2019t suit your tastes.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana was forcing herself to stay calm. If she didn\u2019t want to find out who was backing Savannah, she would\u2019ve kicked her out already.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She even started considering reporting to the community office and getting a big dog. Next time these random people showed up, she\u2019d shut the door and let the dog out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah glanced at Adriana and nodded. \u201cYou\u2019re at least a decent housewife. I\u2019ll give you that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
That judgmental tone made Adriana want to punch her. \u201cI already told Denton. We\u2019ll just make do with your cooking tonight. Go light on the salt. Keep it light.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana took a deep breath and went into the kitchen to stew in silence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Savannah acted like a supervisor Harold had deliberately left behind. It was infuriating.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Still, Adriana was curious. Why had the person behind the scenes, who had been trying so hard to drive a wedge between Curtis and Denton before, suddenly switched tactics and had Savannah pushing to repair their relationship?\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had no idea what kind of scheme that person was cooking up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou and Curtis don\u2019t have kids. Curtis and Denton are the closest people to each other. They\u2019re blood\u2013related. You\u2019re ultimately just an outsider. Understand?\u201d Savannah stood at the kitchen door, lecturing Adriana. \u201cTo put it bluntly, if Curtis\u2019s inheritance ever needs to be passed on, Denton would be first in line.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana\u2019s hand paused mid\u2013chop.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now she understood Savannah\u2019s angle. The person behind her shifted focus to Curtis\u2019s inheritance?\u00a0<\/p>\n
She instinctively glanced at her stomach and took a deep breath. No wonder Curtis keeps insisting I keep the pregnancy secret.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But hearing Savannah say this still made Adriana\u2019s back\u00a0<\/p>\n
go cold.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was worried that the person behind all this would make another move against Curtis.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re just an orphan. You wouldn\u2019t fight Denton over inheritance, right? You should know, if something happens to Curtis, handing over what already belongs to Denton is the only way you\u2019ll get his protection later. Otherwise, you might get the money, but you might not live long enough to spend it,\u201d Savannah said pointedly, deliberately threatening her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The implication was obvious. She seemed convinced Curtis would definitely meet an untimely end.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana\u2019s eyelid twitched. She hated anyone speaking ill of Curtis. Unable to take it anymore, she slammed the cleaver down onto the cutting board.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah jumped. \u201cWhat are you doing?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana held the cleaver and pointed it at Savannah. \u201cKeep running your mouth like that, and my knife will be the first thing that hits you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah froze. She clearly hadn\u2019t expected Adriana to snap like this. She swallowed and finally shut up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah had completely ruined Adriana\u2019s mood. She finished cooking and set the dishes on the table, but her mind was elsewhere the whole time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Denton arrived before Curtis. He was clearly much more polite than Savannah. He brought gifts and even asked Adriana where he should leave his coat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou didn\u2019t even take your jacket off?\u201d Denton asked when he saw Savannah still wearing hers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMaybe she just has no manners,\u201d Adriana said with a tight smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah\u2019s expression stiffened. \u201cThis is Curtis\u2019s house. It might be Denton\u2019s in the future. Why make such a fuss?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you unable to understand basic language, or are you hard of hearing? I\u2019ve already said this house is mine. My name is on the deed. Do you understand now?\u201d Adriana said coldly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah was about to argue again when Denton quickly stepped in to ease the tension. \u201cAdriana, I brought watermelon. It\u2019s super sweet. Let\u2019s put it in the fridge to chill first and try it later.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
