Chapter 304

Abby stared in disbelief. "What on earth is going on?"

Stella frowned, picked up her phone, and dialed the property management office.

"My apartment's been sealed off. Can someone explain why there's a notice on my door?"

The property manager replied, "Ms. Cameron, the unit you're living in is currently involved in a legal dispute regarding ownership. As a precaution, we've temporarily sealed the property. Once the matter is resolved, the restriction will be lifted."

Stella's tone turned icy. "I am the legal owner of this apartment. The title was transferred to my name years ago—there is no dispute."

"Um... The previous owner and their family are currently in litigation over the property. Until the case is settled, I'm afraid you'll have to find alternative accommodation, Ms. Cameron."

Abby was fuming by now. "This is ridiculous! You're telling us there's an ownership dispute now, after all these years? Where was all this concern when we bought the place?"

Stella had purchased the apartment not long after she returned to Novaris. She'd just wanted a place to stay whenever she visited, nothing permanent, so she bought a pre-owned unit. The paperwork was clear, the sale had gone smoothly, and the title transfer had been completed without issue.
