Chapter 414 No Villainy, No Mediocre Hero
“It’s all because of my frail body,” Madam Fowler lamented.
“My late husband had left his sperm in a sperm bank, Madam Fowler revealed, her voice choked with emotion. “I don’t want to die. I have to bear my husband a child…”
Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.
Naturally, she couldn’t confide in anyone about these matters. In the Fowler family, she was the sole remaining woman.
All she could say was that her husband had left her billions of dollars in inheritance. She hadn’t spent it all yet, and she couldn’t bear to die just yet.
After all, the details of those billions had long been in the hands of the Ferguson family. There was nothing left for her to hide.
To survive, she tried every possible method. Two years ago, she even traveled abroad in search of the best medical treatments.
“But when I wasn’t home, Parker managed to break in and steal the keys to our house!”
Her late husband’s inheritance was safely stored in various accounts, so naturally, he couldn’t steal that.)
However, her husband had left behind four luxury cars in the garage. Despite his frail condition, deep down, he was a person who longed for freedom and enjoyed the thrill of the open road. With no real hobbies, he had bought those two luxury cars and would often go for leisurely drives.”
The other two luxury cars were bought for her by him to give her as a gift but were sold by Parker……
The other two luxury cars were intended as gifts for her, purchased by her late husband, but Parker had callously sold them….
As Lilly listened, her disdain for Uncle Fowler grew with each passing moment!
Uncle Fowler was gone, leaving Auntie Fowler with only this one hope, and he had squandered it!
Madam Fowler continued, her voice filled with sorrow kept all the vehicle documents at home, and he stumbled upon them and stole them. Every power of attorney he presented was a forgery. Unfortunately, I forgot to take my identification documents with me…”
She would always carry her identification documents when she traveled abroad for medical treatments, but not when no one else was leaving the house.
“If I hadn’t returned so quickly, he would have sold the entire mansion.”
And to make matters worse, he started showing up at the mansion every few days, wreaking havoc. She -hired security guards, but once he got his hands on the money from selling the cars, he hired thugs to
drive the guards away. Eventually, nobody dared to work as security for her house.
Calling the police proved futile. Parker hadn’t technically broken into the house; he claimed he was just visiting his sister-in-law, no matter what. No matter how many times she changed the keys, he always found a way to unlock the doors. Madam Fowler even began to suspect that he had a history of being a
thief.

So it went on. They didn’t commit any overtly outrageous acts. The old couple eventually left, leaving Parker behind to torment her. It was evident that they wanted to wear her down.
Parker, lying on the ground, attempted to offer a feeble defense, but not a single word escaped his lips.
After pouring out her heart, Madam Fowler felt utterly exhausted. There was nothing left for her to worry about now. The secret desire she had confided in Blake to swap lives with another person, had been exposed, shattering her last refuge.
She had been cautious of the Ferguson family, but now all hope was crushed, and there was nothing left to conceal.
“I just wanted to personally give him a child…” Madam Fowler sobbed, tears streaming down her face. “My dear friends suggested finding a surrogate, but I could bear to do that! It would be the only trace of my husband left in this world…”
She truly wanted to experience the joy of giving birth herself, to feel the child grow within her, as if her husband were still by her side. It was the only connection she could have with him now
Lilly looked at the aura above Madam Fowler’s head and said, with a tinge of sadness, “I didn’t realize it was like this…”
Pablo sighed, “This family, truly a gathering of good people, but also plagued by illness and misfortune.”
Lilly asked, “Why is it that good people always seem to suffer?”
Meanwhile, the bad people can roam freely without a re in the world.
Pablo was about to respond, but Blake interjected first.
In a solemn tone, he said, “Because bad people have no shame, they act without any regard for others, and that’s why their legacy persists throughout the ages.”
But what about the good people? With their compassionate hearts, they are naturally more vulnerable to
harm.
Blake lowered his gaze to Lilly and said, “So, we should never become villains, but we also shouldn’t become pushovers.”
“Our hearts can be filled with kindness, but we mustn’t be soft-hearted. Do you understand?”
For families like the Fowler family, who have wealth and power, they should have broken the Ferguson family’s legs when they came knocking.
Compensation for assault?
Sure! Then let’s make it more thorough. Make them pay millions or even billions, so they’ll have the money but not the life to enjoy it.
Blake acknowledged that he could be quite ruthless at nes, but so what? He didn’t want his daughter to be a soft, weak, and overly kind-hearted person. Even if she had a bit of cunning, it would still be better than being naïve and easily taken advantage of
With the example of the Fowler family, Lilly understood most of it, even though her father’s words seemed contradictory. But she truly grasped the essence of it.

“I understand. Daddy,” Lilly nodded earnestly.
Blake grunted in response and suddenly said, “Don’t tell your grandmother about this, that I taught you these things.”
Lilly replied, “Okay, Daddy!”
Grace couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of her mouth.
Could this character hold up for even three seconds?
