NovelEnglishChapter 816 "You..." She squeezed a word through her teeth and choked back the rest of her sentence.
Her feeble voice went unheard as Rose coaxed them to try her cooking.

Norman was excited, "Really? Let me taste it." Linda didn't have the appetite, but she couldn't bear to let her parents go hungry, so she forced herself to eat together.
Finally, after a round of excruciating subliminal tug-of-war, dinner was over.
Linda put down her chopsticks. She looked at her parents, who were cleaning themselves with a napkin, and said calmly, "I want to ask you something." She looked serious. Her voice was deep and heavy.
Both Norman and Rose looked at her, puzzled. The latter asked, "What's the matter? Why are you looking so serious all of a sudden?" Linda ignored Rose but stared at Norman, "What exactly happened recently? How much longer are you going to keep this from me?" Norman and Rose were taken aback. The former furrowed and said, "I've told you nothing happened. Why are you asking again?" Rose was somewhat nervous. Today was her daughter's first day at work. Could she have discovered something or heard about it from someone? But...
She couldn't have heard it from anyone else. Nobody knew about this matter. Norman was vain and proud; he wouldn't tell anyone in the company. If one person came to know about it, soon the whole company would know. Then, Norman's authority and reputation would hit the skids.

Norman instantly roared, "Nonsense! Who told you these things? They are all lies!" "You didn't sell off our properties?" Linda didn't believe Norman and stared at him coldly, waiting for him to continue speaking.
Norman shouted, "Of course!" Elisa sneered, "Okay then, let me see the title of this house and all the other properties. | want to check the records of this house myself!" She did not believe a word her parents said. Norman coaxed and soothed her, "You don't trust us? Why do you need to see the records? We are family. No? Plus. Even if | did sell off our properties, it must be out of a profitable investment. Our company hasn't had any investment projects recently. How could | have sold them?" Linda almost believed what her parents said.
But she remembered the conversation with Elisa over the phone. It definitely wasn't baseless because Elisa wouldn't lie.
Elisa knew that through her interrogation, her parents would give in and show her the records. It was just a small argument and wouldn't cause any damage.
If that was the case, what Elisa said was meaningless. After all, they were a family, and such divisive behavior was futile unless what Elisa said was true! Now, Linda was almost certain that Elisa was right. Her parents didn't look right! Something wrong must have happened! She hated this feeling! She hated it! mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
