Tia didn’t wait for Audrey to reply.
She spoke with a nagging tone, “Audrey, please persuade your grandfather. We
really don’t want to ruin his reputation, and yours, by bringing this onto the show.
He's a university professor, isn't he? Won't his reputation as an educator be
tarnished if this blows up?”
Audrey's face darkened, “What do you want?"
“I heard professors are given houses by the university. Ask your grandfather to
transfer a house to your brother Adam. If not, buy him a villa in Sheysea and a
car worth half a million dollars. The car isn’t our demand. It's what the bride's
family wants.”
Tia continued, “They're also asking for a wedding gift of 660 thousand dollars.
Your mother was your grandfather's only child. Now that she’s gone, he only has
Adam.
“Everything your grandfather owns should belong to Adam. If he’s holding onto
his wealth so Adam doesn't inherit what's rightfully his, your mother would be
turning in her grave!”
Audrey replied in a calm voice, “You tortured my birth mother to death! If Mr.
Lambert helps you, she will never rest in peace.”
“Give me the phone!” bellowed Wayne Yeomans, Audrey's biological father. He
couldn’t contain his anger and snatched the phone.
He spat insultingly, “Audrey! Am I being too nice to you? Don't think I can't see
that you're keeping Mr. Lambert from seeing Adam so you can monopolize the
house and money for yourself. That old man’s house and money belong to Adam.
If you dare covet them, I'll kill you!”
“Bullshit! When she was 12, we received a five thousand dollar deposit from Jolin
Watson's family. But your sister couldn't bring Audrey back, and I had to pay
them 600 dollars to settle it!"
Donna interrupted Wayne, “This time, we got 30 thousand dollars from Claude,
promising to bring Audrey back to bear his children. If you kill her, we'll have to
compensate him, and he’s not someone to mess with!”
“Her life is mine to take. If I want her dead, she has no right to live. That's just
how it is!” Wayne yelled at Donna.
He told Audrey, “Call that old man right now. If he doesn't transfer the house to
Adam, send us the money, and buy him the car, I'll kill you. You're nothing but a
shameless, greedy wretch coveting your brother's inheritance!”
Wayne's voice was sinister and nasty. He sounded as vicious as Audrey
remembered him being when he beat her and her mother in the cellar, a stark
contrast to the usual facade of kindness he showed
others.
