Eleanor Hollis didn’t speak, she looked intently at the face in front of her. "Do you love Alice Lynch?" Nicholas Hollis stiffened all over, suddenly at a loss for words, not knowing how to answer. "I don’t know, maybe I like her, but it can’t be called love. I’m used to having her by my side; she knows what I want. She’s like a gentle flower, and it’s comfortable being with her." Eleanor Hollis smirked sarcastically. "A gentle flower? Every word she says, everything she does is with a purpose, Dad. With your current status, many women can achieve that." Nicholas Hollis tightened his grip on the cup. Although he didn’t want to admit it, she was right. "Eleanor, I’m old now, don’t have the energy to get familiar with another woman; for me, Alice is the most suitable." Eleanor Hollis didn’t try to persuade him anymore; she didn’t even touch the coffee on the table and slowly stood up. "I’ll sign the transfer documents. This is what you owe my mom and me. Once Alice finds out you’ve transferred all your assets to me, you’ll see her true colors." After she left, Nicholas Hollis sat in his seat for a long time, finally sighed, and then got up to leave. The next morning, Nicholas Hollis’s property transfer documents were indeed brought over, and Eleanor Hollis signed them without hesitation. Nicholas Hollis’s transfer documents were very sincere, leaving nothing for himself, not even the current Hollis Family villa, which was now Eleanor’s. Since it’s her villa, it’s absolutely unacceptable to house outsiders. So, in the afternoon, she went to the Hollis Family estate. At this moment, Alice Lynch and Anna Hollis were completely unaware, because after returning last night, Nicholas didn’t tell them about this. Alice Lynch and Anna Hollis’s faces were full of scars; just as they were applying face masks, they saw Eleanor Hollis swagger in. A trace of surprise flashed across Alice Lynch’s face. How could she still come? Hadn’t she already given up on the Hollis Family? "Eleanor, you’ve come, huh? Have you eaten lunch? Shall I ask the chef to make you some?" She smiled, peeling off her face mask and wiping her face with a towel. Eleanor Hollis raised an eyebrow, knowing she was deliberately disgusting her, but she didn’t mind and sat on the sofa. "Anna Hollis, Mrs. Lynch, I have something to say today." Anna Hollis rolled her eyes. What more could this person have to say? Now that Dad had already leaned toward them, whatever Eleanor said wouldn’t affect them in the slightest. "Eleanor, if you have something to say, just say it." Alice Lynch subtly issued an eviction order, meaning once you’re done, please leave; the Hollis house is not the place you should come to. Wendy Sullivan, upstairs, heard the commotion and came downstairs with a cane, her face clouding over the moment she saw Eleanor. With Eleanor not around these days, the Hollis Family had been harmonious. What is this jinx doing here again? Eleanor Hollis pulled out the transfer documents, a copy she made, with the original kept in Hugo Quinn’s villa. "Here’s the thing: Dad sent over the property transfer documents this morning. Everything in the Hollis Family is mine now, including this villa. I contacted the lawyers before coming; they should be here soon. Since the villa is mine, outsiders should move out. Mrs. Lynch, wouldn’t you agree?" In contrast to Eleanor’s ease, Alice Lynch felt as if struck by a thunderbolt. She picked up the papers to read, and seeing the black and white words clearly, she nearly fainted. "This is impossible! How could Nicholas give everything to you, leaving Anna with nothing?!" Her eyes turned bloodshot, clutching the transfer documents tightly. Eleanor Hollis’s lips curled as she watched her breakdown, feeling miraculously satisfied inside. "Aren’t you very clear about whose child Anna is?" Alice Lynch’s breath hitched, then she began to laugh. "You’re lying to me. Nicholas loves me so much. Just last night, he said he was worried about me. How could he have given everything to you so suddenly? Eleanor, do you know that forging this document is illegal? I can call the police to have you arrested right now." Eleanor Hollis looked at her sympathetically; it seemed she couldn’t accept reality. The doorbell to the living room rang at that moment. A servant opened the door to find two lawyers whom everyone in the Hollis Family was familiar with, as they often visited. "The two lawyers are here just in time. My dad has already transferred everything to me, including this villa. Do I have the right to ask some unwanted people to move out?" The two lawyers bowed their heads respectfully. "Miss Hollis, you certainly have the right. Mr. Hollis has already explained all the details to us. From now on, everything in the Hollis Family is under your control, and you can decide what to do with your possessions." Seeing the two lawyers, a sense of foreboding surged in Alice Lynch’s heart. Hearing their words, her ears buzzed, unable to take in anything else. "Mom... Mom, is Dad really so ruthless? What should we do now..." Anna Hollis, who had initially disregarded Eleanor, began to panic at the lawyers’ words. Alice Lynch felt a rush of anxiety, suddenly unsure of why Nicholas Hollis had done this. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 She took out her phone to call Nicholas, but his phone was already off, and no one knew where he was. "Mrs. Lynch, I’m giving you only one hour. If you’re still here in an hour, I’ll have people throw you out." Eleanor Hollis spoke bluntly, sipping tea on the sofa with an air of calm confidence. Wendy Sullivan, sitting beside her, couldn’t help but speak up seeing her so arrogant. "Rachel Lynch is your mother no matter what! How can you be so vicious?! Be careful you don’t get your comeuppance!" She had always been at odds with Eleanor Hollis, seizing this moment to mock her. Eleanor gave her a look, knowing the old lady was just a paper tiger. If she didn’t retort, the woman would think she’s more formidable than she is. "Grandma, if you wish to join them, you can start packing your things now too." Wendy Sullivan blushed, not daring to speak again. The current Eleanor recognized no kinship, and she might indeed do such a thing. Alice Lynch softened her tone, her eyes full of hurt. "I know you’ve always resented me for sending you to the countryside and then fabricated a bunch of nonsense to slander me. Eleanor, we are mother and daughter. There’s no need to let it come to this..." Eleanor Hollis thought this woman was disgusting, still playing the family card at this stage. She leaned in close to her ear, her eyes filled with disdain.
