Candice pouted, “You dare say Calista has no money? If she’s considered poor, then I don’t even qualify as a beggar!”
Frederick chuckled. “Look at how you’re talking, Candice. I didn’t ask you for much money, just less than 100 dollars. Do you really need to bring up Calista to evade the topic?”
Candice snorted. “What am I evading? Do I need to evade you? Tell you what, I’m actually at Calista’s house right now.”
“What are you doing at Calista’s house? There’s barely enough room for one more person to sit. Why are you going there?” Frederick’s contemptuous tone was unmistakable.
Candice fumed, “No room to sit? I don’t know how massive you are. Are you a gigantic rock that weighs 100 or 200 tons?”
Frederick laughed, “Candice, I haven’t seen you in days, and you’re already pretending to be poor. Your joke is not funny at all. Now that you have arrived at Calista’s house, is Jason going to die soon? Wasn’t he supposed to die last month?”
Candice sighed. “Frederick, Calista treats you well, so why are you cursing her husband for no reason? Mind your words. Jason is doing fine now, and Oliver has found a wife. The whole family is doing well financially and in terms of personal relationships. They’re living a good life.”
“Candice, stop fooling me. How can Calista be rich?” Frederick didn’t believe it. After hanging up, he immediately sent her a video call.
He thought to himself, “Since Candice is at Calista’s house, the most direct way to prove it is through video calls. Everything will be clear once I see it.”
Candice answered the video call, and Frederick’s chubby face appeared in the video. He said with a smile, “Candice, let me see what joke you’re pulling… Oh, which big boss house are you in?”
Candice pointed the camera at her sister Calista and spoke to Frederick. “Calista is here. This is her bedroom. Her mansion in Juset Riveria Residences is worth more than 2 million dollars!”
Frederick was stunned. “I-Is this really Calista’s house? Where did she get the money to buy such a big mansion? More than 2 million dollars… Calista, did you win the lottery?”
Candice lashed out again. “You’re underestimating Calista’s house. Even if you win the lottery, how much would you have? 1 million dollars? It’s not even enough to buy half of this mansion. And even if you can afford it, can you handle the expenses? The monthly maintenance fee alone is over 2,000 dollars. Take a look at the cars in the yard below…”
Candice pointed the phone at the four or five luxury cars in the yard downstairs.
Frederick blurted out, “Wow! Rolls-Royce! And there’s even a Mercedes-Benz. Which big bosses are here?”
Candice immediately said, “What big bosses? There is only Mr. Oliver Eastwood, and these cars are all his. I heard the three Rolls-Royces are worth about 2 million dollars each, and the Mercedes-Benz is worth around 600 thousand dollars. Also, that Rolls-Royce sports car was priced around 1.4 to 1.6 million dollars, given by Oliver to his girlfriend!”
The two people in the yard heard some voices, turned their heads, and looked up. They
Frederick was stunned when he saw Sienna’s beautiful face in the camera. Then he that… Oliver’s girlfriend?”
Oliver and Sienna.

“Yeah, she is. She’s unbelievably beautiful, isn’t she?” Candice replied with a tone that was hard to tell if she was jealous or
envious.
“Then I… I’ll be right there!” Frederick suddenly could no longer sit still. He could be seen running straight to the door in the camera while asking, “Candice, it’s Juset Riveria Residences, right?”
Candice hurriedly told him the address.
She could not handle Oliver, that tough nut. So, she simply decided to bring in her little brother Frederick just to stir up trouble.
“If Calista cares about Frederick and wants to give him money, she will also give me some money, right? Therefore, involving Frederick in this mess is a good thing,” she mused.
Frederick ended the video call and got in a taxi.
Calista saw that Candice had instigated her little brother to come, but she didn’t say much about it. She remarked internally, “Well, if he wants to come, let him come.”
In about 20 minutes, Frederick arrived. Panting heavily, he ran to the gate of the mansion’s yard and peered inside through the iron fence gate.
He saw Oliver and Sienna sitting in the yard at a glance. After carefully identifying them, he grinned and walked in.
Frederick called out, “Oliver, it’s really you. You rascal… You made a fortune. I didn’t believe it when Candice told me this was your mansion just now. What kind of business did you do to make so much money?”
Oliver said lightly, “What does it have to do with you?”
Frederick choked on his words and said smilingly, “What are you saying? You getting rich means that your uncle here has gotten rich too. I’m your uncle, your mother’s own younger brother. Blood is thicker than water. We’re family, whether you like it or not!”
“A family?” Oliver glanced over and retorted without hesitation, “When my father was waiting for money in the hospital bed to save his life, I didn’t ask you to lend us money. I only asked you to return our family’s money. And how did you respond? Suddenly, we weren’t family anymore?”
Frederick smiled and boldly said, “Oliver, you know very well what kind of person I am. Normally, I have four pockets weighing the same, meaning I don’t have money. But if I did have money, you wouldn’t even have to ask for this small amount. For your father’s medical treatment, I would have paid for everything. After all, he is my brother-in-law. How could I not help him?”
Oliver rebutted coldly, “Don’t bother with those empty words. Let me make myself clear. I have money, more than I can spend, but don’t even think about taking a single penny from me. I’ve made it clear. I won’t give you anything. Go back to where you came from because my family doesn’t have relatives like you!”
Frederick was so angry that he walked straight inside and complained annoyedly, “There’s no point talking to you. I’m going
to find Calista!”
However, he collided with someone’s chest head-on, and that person was like a wall, causing Frederick to stumble back several steps. When he looked up and saw an unknown cold-faced man, he couldn’t help but get irritated. “Are you blind? Can’t you use your eyes?”
The man said coldly, “Get out!”
Frederick retorted, “This is not your home. This is my sister’s house. It has nothing to do with you!” novelbin
This man was Wayne. As soon as he reached out his hand, he caught Frederick’s hand and twisted it, making him cry out.
Wayne dragged him a few steps out without saying anything and then threw him outside the yard door. He icily added, “Get lost! Come in, and I’ll beat you up again!”
Upon seeing the fierce and intimidating Wayne, Frederick realized that Wayne was not someone to be trifled with. Frederick had already experienced his strength earlier and knew that he, as a streetwise thug, was no match for Wayne. He didn’t dare to provoke him further and instead looked up toward the upper floors and shouted at the top of his lungs, “Calista! Calista, I’m Frederick, your little brother. Please come out quick and get me!”
Wayne could not stop him from shouting, and Oliver stood by, watching with a cold gaze and not attempting to intervene. Deep down, Wayne already understood that Oliver disliked this thug-like individual.
