Lazily Yours.

Chapter 552: Money!

"So, you are going to stay in this place for two weeks?" Old Man Ren couldn't help but feel glad that his granddaughter finally decided to visit him in the Ren Mansion. However, a part of him felt worried too. He knew that Gabi wouldn't just come here because she felt like it. From the old man's point of view, his granddaughter isn't that idle.

"Yes, I really hope you don't mind, grandfather," Gabi said. "The result of the DNA test is today. However, I already asked my lawyers to handle it. I have not time to deal with those people." She knew that Alfons would never give up. Since he made those come people, there is a possibility that he had a backup plan. In case, she won't do what he wants.

She knew Alfons to the bone. She knew how ruthless he was. So, he chose to make those people leave before coming back to the mansion. She also used this time to bond with her grandfather. "Plus, I wanted to accompany you, grandfather. It has been years since we last enjoyed some free time together."

"Ah… this child. I get that you are not worried about money, however, is it really alright for you to take a two-week break and come here?"

"Yes. Plus, I only check the stocks. Aside from that, I don't do anything else." Plus, she purposely came to this city because she wanted to meet someone that would become important in Alfons' team in the future. Right now, since Alfons is still starting, his influence isn't that big. She is planning to recruit everyone that would become Alfons' ally in the future. And if she couldn't recruit them… she is going to ruin them. It was that simple.

"How are you going to deal with your newfound relative?"

"Just give them money then I won't meet them again." She answered almost immediately.

"You don't want to meet them anymore? Not even get close to them? I heard that there was a woman your age?"

"No."

"Are you sure they are going to stop bothering you, though?"

"Yes, they will."

"You sound confident." The old man nodded. "However, if you can't deal with it anymore, just tell me. I will help you."

"Thank you, grandfather. However, I am confident that they wouldn't come back and bother me anymore."

Meanwhile, Alfons was still confident that his plan would come to fruition. He had prepared a lot of things for today and he knew that he would never fail. "By the way, where is she? It was normal for Gabi not to join us for breakfast but lunch too?" He asked Spencer. Today, they are having their lunch in the gardens. It was a beautiful day to have lunch outside.

"Ah, Miss Gabi left early for her trip."

"Excuse me?" Alfons met his grandmother's eyes before looking at Spencer. "What did you say?"

"Miss Gabi left early for her vacation. She is going to come back two weeks from now."

"Huh? Why would she leave… now?"

"This trip has been scheduled for weeks, sir."

"But today, the result of the DNA test will arrive. She could have waited…"

"Ah, Mr. Kasper is going to handle it, sir. We already prepared the money…"

"I'm sorry, but what money are you talking about?" Clarisse couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"The money that we will give you before you leave the mansion."

"Excuse me?"

"Miss Gabi said that after the DNA result, we need to guide you out of the mansion."

"This— "

"Why would Gabi say that?"

"Sir, the young miss didn't want strangers inside the house. She even said that if they refuse to leave, we needed to call the police."

"What?" Alfons glared at Spencer. What is happening here? How could Gabi leave just like that? He immediately felt his head aching. He had a lot of things to take care of and Gabi isn't helping him anymore! That woman has become a huge problem that he needed to prioritize before he could even run for office this upcoming election!

The three of them couldn't help but feel unease at the current situation. After all, they never thought that Gabi would easily dodge their plans. "I don't want them to leave. They are Sutton's too! They have the right to be here."

"Yes, sir. Miss Gabi already said that you would say that. However, she wanted to remind you that she never received any inheritance from the late prime minister. The house and money were given to you. So, if you wanted them to stay in the city then… you should let them stay in your own house."

*BANG*

Alfons' hand slammed against the table. "Spencer, how dare you say that to me?"

"Sir, I am only trying to tell you what Miss Gabi said this morning."

"You wanted me to believe that she actually said those things?"

"Yes, sir. Miss Gabi already expected that you won't listen to a mere butler like me so she left a voice recording. Let me play it now."

"…"

"…"

"…"

[Brother, I've been so tired in the past few weeks, so I decided to take a break to recover. No need to call me. My phone's off. I did that to avoid any more stress. My doctor said that being too stressed is the reason why I am sick. Meaning, I needed to avoid you.]

"…"

[Anyway, I left this recording because I didn't want to wake you up. I know you were very tired too. I want the grandmother and granddaughter pair to leave. They are bad news.] Gabi's voice turned serious. [I already made a background check and know that Miss Mary isn't really sick. And his son, our uncle, owes an enormous amount of money from an international criminal group. This is because of his gambling.] Alfons' face turned dark. He expected that Gabi would pay people to check out their backgrounds, but she didn't expect it to be so thorough!

[I know you wanted to become a public official. So, getting close to them wouldn't do you any good. Just listen to me. I am only concerned about you. And before you say that, Miss Clarisse is innocent. I have proof that she liked to bully people in her school. If this goes out… I am sure people would think that you haven't given her any advice despite being her relative. So, let's settle this with money, alright?]
