After her rebirth

Ella pouted, "You guys better not be fooling this country bumpkin. You, the Manners family, such big shots, can't come up with $100,000? I don't believe it."

Lucas knew there was no reasoning with someone like her, so he said coldly, "Either you name a reasonable amount, or you won't get a penny. Although Clara is my sister, I don't want her to suffer. But if there's no other way, I believe she will understand."

Ella, afraid she wouldn't get any money, quickly changed her tune, "Then how much will you give me?"

"$10,000," Lucas sneered. "This is for the care expenses when Clara moves to your house. If you do well, I'll continue to give you more."

Ella was confused by Lucas's words, "What? What care?"

Lucas replied, "Clara will move to your house for a while."

"Didn't you just..."

"That was my mother's decision, not mine," Lucas said calmly. "Since Clara's family relationship has changed, it's not suitable for her to stay with the Manners family anymore."

Given Katniss's personality, she wouldn't allow it either.

Rather than causing conflicts later, it was better to arrange things properly now.

Ella was a bit hesitant, but before she could speak, Lucas continued, "If you don't agree, then the $10,000 is off the table."

Ella had been banking on their reluctance to let Clara move, but it seemed that wouldn't work.

"Alright," Ella said with a grin, "as long as the money is right, I promise to take good care of her."

Lucas nodded, "I'll give you the money the day Clara moves into your house."

He thought for a moment and took out $100 from his pocket, "Take this first. Hire someone to clean up the house and make it as comfortable as possible for Clara."

Ella took the money with a big smile, "Alright, alright, don't worry. She's my own daughter, how could I mistreat her?"

With that ident

Despite just losing her husband, there was no trace of sadness on her face.

Lucas returned to the car, where Elodie was still comforting Clara, "Don't worry, I'll handle it. How could we not want you? We care about you the most."

Seeing Lucas get into the car, Clara assumed he had resolved everything, "Thank you."

It was then that they realized Oliver had somehow slipped away unnoticed.

Elodie knew Oliver must have gone to that mistress of his and cursed him silently.

However, things were progressing smoothly, and once Nathan's illness was cured, she wouldn't worry anymore.

Lucas drove home with a stern face.

As soon as they entered the living room, he said, "Clara, pack your basic clothes. You'll move to Ella's house tonight or at the latest, tomorrow."

Elodie and Clara were stunned by his words.

They both looked at Lucas, speaking in unison.

"Lucas, what did you say?"

"Lucas, what do you mean?"

Lucas sighed deeply and then comforted Clara, "I've agreed to give Ella money. She won't make you work. You'll stay there temporarily, and once Nathan is better, we'll bring you back."

"Is this really necessary?" Clara couldn't help but get emotional.

Her family relationship had changed, and now she had to move out.

Would she really be able to come back?

No, she had to stay no matter what.

Elodie thought for a moment and agreed, "Yes, does Katniss really care where Clara lives? Why don't you talk to her again?"

Lucas shook his head, "You know her personality. She won't allow us to negotiate, and we don't have much time. Mom, think about Nathan; he's already in the ICU."

Clara, crying, ran to Elodie, "Mom, no. If I move to someone else's house, I'll be doomed. What will the Boleyn family think of me then?"

"And that place..." Clara's eyes were full of disdain, "It's definitely messy and unsafe at night. Mom, I don't want to go. We've come this far, does Katniss really want to push me to the edge?"

Elodie's temples throbbed, "Lucas..."

Lucas interrupted her, looking at Clara, "Clara, stop it. Listen to me, Ella is your biological mother, she won't harm you."noveldrama

Clara still disagreed.

Elodie thought of the critically ill Nathan and steeled herself, "Clara, if you really can't get used to it, let Lucas find someone reliable to take care of you there."

Clara collapsed to the ground.

They had all given up on her.

Why was this happening?

Under Lucas's urging, Clara was taken to Ella's house that very night. He couldn't wait

to call Katniss, "It's done, and Clara has moved to Ella's house. Are you satisfied now, Katniss?"

"I don't like the sound of that," she sneered. "Besides, I need to verify if it's true."

"Let's meet tomorrow," Lucas said.

The next day, Lucas piled the family relationship documents and copies of Ella's family relationship documents in front of Katniss.

Katniss checked them and smiled, "It's true."

"As for whether Clara has really moved back to her biological mother's house..." she

took a sip of tea and continued, "I'll have someone verify it. If you're deceiving me, you know the consequences."

Lucas nodded, "Don't worry, Nathan's life is in your hands, we wouldn't dare."

But Katniss was in a good mood and didn't want to argue. She then made a request that almost made Lucas explode with anger, "I want to see Aaron's body to confirm he's really dead."

"Katniss, don't you trust me?"

Katniss replied bluntly, "No."

Lucas sighed, "I'll arrange it, but it probably won't be today. Tomorrow, if you confirm

it, can you start treating Nathan immediately?"

Katniss nodded, "Of course."

She wasn't like the Manners family, who only played dirty tricks.

Lucas hurried away.

Aaron had just died, and Ella was immediately asked to help change the family

relationship. The body was still in the hospital morgue.

As long as Ella agreed, the hospital would have no problem.

After arranging everything, he immediately notified Katniss.

Katniss followed Lucas to the morgue and indeed saw Aaron's body.

At that moment, she didn't know what to feel.

Aaron hadn't treated her particularly well, but there were still warm moments in her childhood.

However, most of the days were tough.

But after seeing so many hypocritical good people, she felt that Aaron and Ella, who

were openly bad, were more genuine.

With death, all grudges ended.

Katniss looked indifferent and silently bowed.

After they left, Katniss directly asked, "Where is Nathan?"
