The Battle Over Uncle's InheritanceChapter 1
Thomas Leonard, my uncle, my mother's brother, was paralyzed in bed because of an incident at his mountain climbing, but his son, Alex, whom he was proud of, was shirking the responsibility to take care of him abroad at this time.
I took great pains to take care of him for 10 years, which gave him hope to stand up.
Thomas was grateful to me, and he decided to make me his heir.
I didn't expect Alex to return home before the will was notarized.
Thomas immediately asked his lawyer to rewrite his will and had it notarized. His inheritance would then be his son's.
And I only got a food fee of 7200 dollars, which was determined through his meticulous calculation.
He promised me that he would raise it to 8000 dollars out of generosity.
I couldn't accept the humiliation and died in a car accident.
In my second life, I refused to be such a fool, and accidentally discovered Thomas's secret.
"Nancy James, what do you mean? Do you really want to take all my property for yourself? This is just a little trick I used to test Alex's sincerity to me. How can you take it seriously?
"Now that he is willing to come back, it means that he still recognizes me as his father. Naturally, I will have to give my everything to him and my grandchildren.
"You're just a money-losing girl. You're a James, not a Leonard. You're not qualified to take care of me in my old age. How can I give you the inheritance? Stop daydreaming.
"My food fee was 2 dollars a day, and 10 years counts 7200. I'll give you eight grand. The extra 800 dollars will be my 'thank you' reward to you.
"If I hadn't sacrificed myself to be your test subject, how could you have become a chief physician?
"Now that I've recovered and can stand on my own feet, I've become your living signboard. It can be said that without me, you wouldn't have been able to make a name for yourself today. It's fine if you aren’t grateful, but how dare you covet my properties. You're really an uneducated thing."
To take care of Thomas, I failed the postgraduate entrance examination and was abandoned by my boyfriend. I took good care of him for ten years, but my efforts were interpreted as a scheme for his inheritance.
8000 dollars in exchange for my wasted youth and ruined dreams.
2 Dollars a day...
All my efforts couldn't be compared to 'Grandpa' called out by Thomas's two grandchildren.
