Chapter 155

Shawn immediately stuck around like an insistent piece of gum, utterly shameless. "What kind of fortune did our village strike? Is there a demolition? A payout? Why wasn't I notified?" Charles was furious, almost toppling over as he snapped back, "There were no renovations or payouts! The people in our village work hard and earn their living honestly, unlike your family, who just got lucky and picked up a stray daughter. You contributed nothing yet still managed to extort a huge sum!" He was referring to how the family had picked up Felicia. The villagers only learned about Felicia's background after she returned to her biological family. Before that, they had already discussed how she must have been adopted, given the treatment she received. As a result, their feelings towards Shawn's family were hardly positive. They openly scolded them for their ingratitude. Shawn scoffed, "We only received 50 million dollars. It's nothing close to a huge sum. That's not even enough to spend."
