Chapter 890
Felipe’s expression darkened as he frowned. “I’m Cathy’s husband.”
“What? That damned girl’s husband?”
“Are you… really Cathy’s husband?”
Both the mother and daughter were shocked.
Felipe did not want to waste any more time with them. “You have one day to move out.”
“What? How could you make us move? The damned girl has left for so many years already, this house has nothing to do with her anymore!” The mother crossed her arms as she stared down at Felipe arrogantly and disdainfully. “Here I thought how great the damned girl’s eyes were. Who would’ve thought she found herself a broke and young boy. You want the house back as a marital home? You wish! Look at you. Who are you to get married when you can’t even buy a house?”
Felipe shot the woman a cold look, one that made a shiver run up her spine.
“You have one day to move, or I’ll make you leave myself.”
“…”
Having warned them, Felipe turned and left.
“Damned hobo. You can dream on if you think I’ll let you steal my house!” After recovering from the initial shock, the older woman gave a contemptuous look. When she turned around, she realized that her daughter had followed after Felipe.
After asking around the village where Cathy’s parents were buried, Felipe found that they were on April Hill.
He took Cathy’s urn and his tools, looking around for Cathy’s parent’s graves.
Having chosen a good spot by the side, he began to dig.
Then, he placed the urn and Cathy’s favorite clothes when she was alive inside the ground. Taking a pen, he wrote ‘In loving memory of Cathy Jordan, beloved wife of Felipe Whitman’ on a plank of wood.
“Pfft. What can love buy? I can already tell that the hobo is only here for the house!”
“That’s true. Being handsome doesn’t get you branded accessories and handbags.” Yui pouted in disappointment, deciding to forget about Felipe.
The following day, Yui left the house after putting on glamorous makeup and a sexy dress. She suddenly saw a few limited edition cars she had always wanted to drive into the village.
She stared enviously, only to find the cars stopping by her door.
Stunned, Yui quickly ran out. Her mother who was chatting with the neighbors by the courtyard also ran out at the loud activities.
Seeing the branded cars by their door, the woman looked ecstatic. “Is this the rich suitor you were talking about the other day, Yui? Look at how sincere he is. Mom thinks you should marry him!”
Hearing her mother and looking at the envious gazes the villagers around were giving her, Yui felt her confidence shoot up.
However, the second the man alighted the car, both Yui and her mother’s eyes widened tremendously!
