Even if Nina had no idea about it, how could Percy not know about it?

Percy had even asked his lawyer to draft the contract.

Jean looked at the satisfied smile on Anna's face. He had this feeling that there was something wrong, so he frowned.

Anna noticed that and said, "Son, we don't have to depend on others anymore in the future. Why are you still frowning?"

Jean asked, "Mom, let me take a look at the contract."

"Contract? What contract?" Anna was startled for a moment. Then, she realized what Jean was talking about and immediately said, "I don't have the contract."

Earlier, Anna was disgusted when she looked at Nina. That was why she did not take the contract. She had a feeling that it would bring bad luck to her when she saw Nina's name.

"Why didn't you take it?” Jean's voice was rising uncontrollably.

"Why should I take it? She agreed to sever ties with her family and they gave me the money. She has nothing to do with us anymore,” said Anna.

“Aren't you afraid that they'll set you up?” Jean frowned. Anna used to be smart. Why had she become so foolish?

Jean woke up too late.

"What are you afraid of? I've got nothing to lose as long as the money's already in my hands. Son, stop overthinking. Get well soon and we can get discharged from the hospital. Then, we'll go home and live our lives comfortably," said Anna.

Their family was initially a middle-class family. However, since they were set up by Marie and Bianca, life had never been easy for them. Jean even got into prison.

Anna realized that it had been a long time since she could live the life she wanted.

Now, as long as the Raynes were not around, she could live her life comfortably.

Jean suddenly thought that what Anna said was right when he saw her being so positive.
