Chapter 95
“Miss Enna, don’t worry. Anyone who took money from the Hart family won’t get away with it. They got that house the dirty way. Now they have to give it back.” Lana assured.
Over the years, the Hart Corporation had become just an empty shell, and a big reason for that was all the money Linda took from Aiden. With that cash, Linda moved all her relatives into the villas and gave them jobs at Hart Corporation.
Linda and Jocelyn rushed to the next villa. After all, they had more than one house.
But they hadn’t even been there ten minutes when the same group of people burst in again. After a heated argument, the intruders started shoving them around.
The same thing happened at several properties. In the end, they were left standing on the side of the road, their clothes in tatters, faces bruised, with the bleak wind blowing around them.
Jocelyn completely snapped. Her eyes were bloodshot with murderous rage as she screamed, “Sienna. I’m going to kill you. I swear I’ll make sure you die.”
Linda was trying to hail a cab, planning to go back to her parents‘ house. “Jocelyn, don’t be in such a hurry. Once your dad returns, we’ll be back at
the Hart residence.”

Jocelyn’s anger only burned hotter when she heard her mother’s ridiculous fantasy.
What a hopeless fool. She still thinks Aiden is going to save us?‘ Jocelyn wondered. ‘Couldn’t she see that Aiden isn’t even worth a damn in front of Sienna? Sienna. I really underestimated you this time.
‘I thought Aiden could keep Sienna in check. Turns out he’s useless. Or maybe Sienna’s just that ruthless; she had her own father locked up in a psych ward. She doesn’t deserve to be called a daughter.
“Enough. Stop bringing up Aiden and just call a cab,” Jocelyn snapped.
With a loud smack. Linda slapped her hard across the face.
Jocelyn was stunned, her cheek burning with pain that cut straight to her core. She’d already been slapped around by those people, and now even her mother had hit her.
“You hit me?” Jocelyn stared at Linda in disbelief, eyes wide. ‘Has she lost her mind?‘ she wondered.
Linda glared at her, furious, “Jocelyn, how dare you call your dad by his name? No respect for your elders at all. You’ve really let me down. He’s your father.”
Jocelyn clenched her fists, hating Linda’s ignorance. Through gritted teeth, she said, “You know better than anyone if he’s really my father.
“You’re just sitting here waiting, but do you honestly think Aiden is coming back for you? He can’t even save himself right now. You think he’d care about you? Keep dreaming”
