The phone call was from Yulia.

“Mom,” Natalie greeted and pressed her cell phone against her ear while she rolled the car window down.

“Baby girl, I'm returning tomorrow,” Yulia said over the phone.

Immediately, Natalie's back stiffened. “Tomorrow?”

“What happened? It seems like you don't want me to return,” Yulia narrowed her eyes as she spoke.

“What do you mean? Mom, stop joking around.” Natalie forced out a laugh while her gaze darted in a panic.

“Alright, I'll stop teasing you. Harrison, that old fool, has already sent the subpoena overseas. As a result, I've been forced to return and take legal action.” Yulia pouted in frustration.

“How long will the court session last?” Natalie turned to glance out the window.

“The preliminary trial will take place on the day after tomorrow. All Harrison has left is you and your brother. I'm certain that he wants one of his children to take care of him when he's older. However, I won't let him have his way. Judging by our current situation, we might need to go through several lawsuits!” Yulia's mood darkened as she explained.

“I think so too.” Natalie nodded in agreement.

Yulia scoffed. “If he wants to go to court, I will play along and make him pay up until he has nothing left under his name!”

“Mom, you have all my support!” Natalie cheered and pumped her fists in the air.

“Alright, I have a flight at ten in the morning tomorrow. I'll land around six in the evening. Baby girl, don't forget to pick me up at the airport, okay?” Yulia informed her.

“Don't worry. I won't forget about it.” Natalie let out a bitter smile.
