Before Annie and Lilian could object, I continued, "Moreover, while Logan was alive, nearly all his income went to support Mom and Lilian. I believe if he were still alive, he would want everything to go towards Mom's treatment."

The relatives couldn't help but give me a thumbs up. Feeling a bit shy, I signed to officially renounce my inheritance. According to the law, since Logan's debts weren't used for family living expenses, I was unaware of them. Therefore, by giving up the inheritance, I wouldn't have to shoulder his debts.

According to inheritance law, if I renounced my right to inherit, then the next in line would be Annie and Lilian. Naturally, they began to push each other away, neither wanting to accept it.

However, the creditors were impatient and barged in without waiting for them to sign.

"Logan owes so much money; you two must pay me back!"

Six:

The two of them were surrounded by creditors.

Annie quickly pointed at me and said, "Make her pay back. She has money and property. She's Logan's wife."

I looked confused and grabbed the lawyer from earlier, asking, "I renounced my inheritance. Do I still need to repay the debts?"

The lawyer shook his head. "No, you don't."

I sighed. "Mom, Lilian, did you make me sign the inheritance because you already knew about this debt?"

"I thought you were being kind, but I didn't expect you to..."

I didn't finish my sentence, but everyone understood what I was trying to say.

Lilian pushed through the creditors and arrogantly said to me, "This was your joint debt. You should definitely be the one to repay it. Besides, Logan..."

Lilian couldn't continue because her original lines were about Logan dying because of me, but after my earlier outburst, the cause of Logan's death had already changed.

The lawyer interjected at the right moment, "A joint debt requires the signatures of both parties for shared expenses. Currently, these IOUs do not have Ms. Adams's name."

Lilian was struck as if by lightning and fell at my feet, holding onto my pant leg and crying, "Olivia, my mom and I can't come up with so much money to repay the debt. You have a house; can you sell it to pay off some of it?"

She had quite the nerve. I looked at her with bewilderment. "Lilian, don't you and Mom also have a house? Its value should be higher than mine. Why don't you sell your own house?"
