Chapter 298
The moment their eyes met, Liam smiled faintly at Silvia before he calmly looked away.
Silvia looked down and felt more certain about her assumptions.
Abalene was tired by the time they got off the stage. She asked the housekeeper to send her back to her room so that she could rest.
When Melanie learned that Abalene had given Harmony Yard to Liam, she immediately confronted her with dissatisfaction.
“Abalene, how could you just give Harmony Yard to Liam? He already joined Remus
Corporation thanks to you. Are you going to give him everything that belongs to the Remus Family?”
Abalene did not have the patience to deal with her, and she spoke snappishly, “Liam has lost everything. Harmony Yard belongs to me. I can leave it to whomever I want. You have no right to interfere with my decision.”
If Melanie cared more about Liam’s marriage, Abalene would not have made this decision.
For one, Liam lost his parents when he was a teenager. Now, his uncle and aunt were wary of him because they were afraid that he would steal Remus Corporation from Neil. Knowing all this, she felt sorry for him.
“I don’t want to interfere with your decision, but you’r
you’re too
biased!
“You’ve seen how hard Neil has worked for Remus Corporation all these years. He became the president because of his hard work, not a handout! But as soon as Liam comes back, you give him Harmony Yard. How is Neil supposed to feel about this?”
However, Abalene refused to change her decision no matter what Melanie said.
“Go ahead and think of me as biased. You and Jake are biased toward Neil anyway. If nob*dy favors Liam, won’t his life be difficult?”
Melanie frowned. She had more to say, but Abalene was having none of it.
“I won’t change my mind even if you talk till tomorrow. If you still see Liam as your nephew, find him a rich girl to marry. If you refuse, I’ll do it myself!”
Based on Abalene’s expression, Melanie could tell that it was impossible to change her mind, so she just left.
When she opened the door, she was surprised to see Liam standing there with a glass of mulled wine. He had an intent look on his face, and she did not know how long he had been listening to them.
Her expression changed, and she subconsciously asked, “When did you get here, Liam?”
He smiled. “I just got here. Don’t you want to keep Grandma company a little longer, Aunt Melanie?”
“I have something to attend to at the banquet. I need to go.
After Melanie left, Liam walked into Abalene’s bedroom.

“Grandma, I asked the kitchen staff to make you some mulled wine. Have a drink before you rest.”
Her interaction with Melanie had left her angry, but she forced a smile when she saw Liam. The elderly aren’t as energetic as you younger people. Go ahead and have fun. Don’t worry about me,” she said with a tired face.
“Okay.”
Liam left after he put down the mulled wine.
However, he went to the courtyard instead of the banquet hall.
The moment he sat down in the pavilion, he broke into a cold and bitter smile.
Obtaining Harmony Yard was the first step of his plan. He would slowly steal Remus Corporation from Neil.
The more Melanie refused to give him anything, the more he wanted her to see him take everything from the Remus Family.
“Dad, Mom, I’ll be able to avenge you soon!”
As the night breeze blew, it drowned out his voice.
Meanwhile, everyone in the banquet hall was talking about how Madam Remus had just given. Harmony Yard to Liam.
“Harmony Yard is worth over ten billion dollars now. Anyone who marries Liam is going to have access to all that fortune.”
