Chapter 394 The Dispute

“Really?” Austin was still a bit overwhelmed. As far as he could remember, his daughter Yoona had died at an early age, and now she was back from the dead? It was just like a dream. He could not wait to do something to prove that it was not a dream, so much so that he squeezed Jeanie’s hand extremely hard, but he didn’t even realize it. However, as Jeanie knew that people who had been in a coma for a long time would have difficulty adapting to reality, she didn’t scream in pain. Rather, she gently patted the back of his bare hand instead to soothe her husband’s emotions.

Austin had taken over the Anderson Family long before his accident, and as a calm head of the family, he soon recovered.

“Get up first,” he said flatly as he looked at Faye. “If you keep crying, who will help me to understand the truth?”

He had roughly remembered Jeanie’s words. Since Faye could send him to the Pinewood Hospital, it was clear that she had long controlled the Anderson Family, which made it difficult for him to regain control of the family. Thus, he had to make long-term plans, and the first thing to do was to dispel Faye’s worries.

The reputation of Pinewood Hospital was excellent and so, the probability for evidence left against Faye was extremely low. In that case, having a falling out with her wouldn’t help anything; it was better to take this opportunity to have her lower her guard.

At the moment Faye heard that Austin was going to give her a chance to defend herself, she immediately stopped sobbing and looked up at him with tears in her eyes. “Dad, I didn’t! I didn’t do those things! It was those elders of the Anderson Family. They forced me! If I didn’t send you here, they were going to take over the Anderson Family’s estate! They know that I am a girl, so even if I hold the position as the head of the family, it will not pose a threat to them, so they deliberately forced me to make a choice, Dad. I had no choice but to agree in order to protect you and my brother, and to protect our family!”

Jeanie listened to Faye’s nonsense, then couldn’t help but point at her and curse, “You lie! It is obvious that you imprisoned me and your grandmother before forcibly taking away the family’s assets. How dare you put the blame on others! Well, even if you explain all this, what about earlier? The Mayor’s men saw with their own eyes how you pulled out your father’s oxygen tube! How do you explain that?”
