SWNOVELS Chapter 242
Chapter 242
Are you for real?" Felton asked, his eyes wide as he stared at Elaine.
Elaine chuckled, "Of course, I am! Why would I lie to you? I mean, Carole, bless her heart, but she's forgotten where she came from. Ever since she struck gold, she's turned her back on us, her own family! I might let it slide, but how could she forget you and Dad? You are her flesh and blood after all!"
In this world, there's no parent who doesn't get under their kid's skin at some point.
No matter what had happened before, nothing could change the fact that Felton and Gemma were Carole's biological parents.
Blood is thicker than water, that means Carole had a duty to support them!
Gemma was fuming on the side, cursing up a storm.
Elaine tried to calm her down, "Mom, why are you getting so worked up over your own daughter? No matter what, you and Dad are her parents. Carole's still single. She is always a Yeager. Isn't everything she owns rightfully yours? Carole's just a woman with a limited education, dragging around a kid she's got no time to run a diner. What if she runs it into the ground?"

Pausing for effect, Elaine continued, "If you ask me, we should let Saul take over the diner. Saul and his wife, they're educated folks. Educated people know business better than someone who's practically blind! It just makes sense!"
Saul Yeager was the shining star of the Yeager family. He was the heir apparent. Elaine and her husband taking over Yeager's Delicacies was the obvious choice.
Carole didn't know anything, with barely any schooling to speak of. How could she be trusted with a business?
It must have been sheer luck that got her this far.
But luck doesn't last forever. After all, it was their family legacy!
Gemma's eyes lit up at Elaine's words, nodding eagerly, "You're right, Elaine! Saul should definitely take over. He can run the diner, and Vanessa, the accountant, can handle the books!"
As for Carole. She could cool her heels elsewhere.
"And don't forget about the money," Elaine added. "Carole's got at least fifty million in her hands. What's a woman gonna do with all that cash? If she gets swindled, it'll be a total loss. Just leave her a couple thousand for pocket change, the rest should be in your hands, Mom!"
Carole was just too trusting. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been conned so badly in her youth!
Elaine was worried about leaving those millions under Carole's unpredictable control.
Gemma nodded vigorously, "You're spot on, Elaine!" Carole was her daughter, after all. Without her giving birth to Carole, where would she be today?
So, everything Carole had belonged to her! All of it!
The fifty million was hers! The diner was hers!
And she'd keep it all for Saul.
Felton frowned, sensing complications. After all, Carole had cut ties with them, "What if she refuses?"
"Refuses? She wouldn't dare! I'm her mother!" Gemma exclaimed angrily. "If she doesn't give it up, I'll... I'll set her straight!"
Elaine smiled reassuringly, "Mom, Dad, don't you worry. Carole will come through. At the end of the day, you're her parents, and Saul is her brother. Who else would she give everything to if not her own family? Surely not to strangers."
If Carole had any sense, she'd know not to benefit outsiders.
Saul was the Yeager family's pride and joy.
