Chapter 1497: 373: J god! _1 Chapter 1497: 373: J god! _1 Upon hearing this, Phoebe Perryne’s face turned a shade paler.

Could it be.

Was Mary Perryne behind the acquisition of the Perryne Corporation and the mortgage of the Perryne Family Mansion?

Possessing this thought, Phoebe looked towards Mary.

At the same moment, Mary Perryne turned to look at Phoebe. She faced her directly, and admitted slowly, word by word, “Yes, it was all me.”

Now.

She was the owner of the Perryne Corporation.

She was also the owner of the Perryne Family Mansion!

She had taken back everything Ethel Guarino had snatched from her mother years ago.

Although it was a bit late.

Originally, Mary Perryne didn’t want to be petty with Phoebe.

For one, these events had happened decades ago.

And secondly, no matter what, Phoebe was still her half-sister, sharing the same father.

The whole thing was caused by Ethel Guarino, and Phoebe wasn’t directly involved.

But after this incident.

Mary Perryne realized that for many years, Phoebe had treated her like an enemy, always plotting to tread on her.

Since this was the case, Mary Perryne felt no need to hold back anymore.

Viola Thompson was right.

Giving the enemy room to maneuver is no different from driving oneself into a dead end.

Therefore, she would never treat Phoebe with the same tolerance she showed before.

Upon hearing this, Phoebe’s strength seemed to be drained all at once. Her face turned ash-gray. Holding Ethel’s urn, she couldn’t stand steady.

They had never thought that they would be beaten by Mary Perryne.

Her lifelong ambition was to ruthlessly suppress Mary Perryne under her feet.

To return a hundred times, a thousand times the injustice she suffered in her childhood to Mary Perryne.

But now…

She didn’t even have the right to bury her mother in the Perryne Ancestral Tomb.

To Phoebe, this was a total humiliation!

Phoebe tried her best to calm herself.

She must let her mother fulfill her wish today.

Her mother was part of the Perryne family in life.

In death, she too, would be a ghost of the Perryne family!

At this moment, Norma Augus stepped forward, her eyes slightly red as she looked up at Mary Perryne.

“Aunt, my grandmother has already passed away. As the saying goes, respect for the dead is paramount. Is it necessary for you to be so ruthless?”

No matter what Ethel Guarino did in her lifetime, she should not be so insulted after death.

Mary Perryne simply lacked grandeur.

She was even bickering with a deceased person.

“Oh, so you know about respecting the dead?” Mary Perryne scoffed lightly, traces of mockery dancing in her eyes, “True, no pain, no gain.”

Since Phoebe and her daughter acknowledge respect for the dead.

Why did they slander the late Hermosa Brain, leading the netizens to bash the deceased!

Norma Augus looked at Mary Perryne, and felt as though she had changed somehow.

She knew she had to humble herself at this moment. The most important thing right now was to bury her grandmother in the Perryne Ancestral Tomb peacefully.

“Aunt, we have acknowledged our mistakes. Nobody is infallible,” Norma Augus said as she looked at Mary Perryne with teary eyes, “I hope you can give us a chance to make amends.”

Mary Perryne’s tone was indifferent as she looked at Norma Augus, “When you intentionally manipulated public opinion online, why didn’t you think of sparing others when you could?”

At the end of the day, it was Phoebe and Norma Augus who shot themselves in the foot.

Upon hearing this, Norma Augus wanted to explain something.

Ivan Perryne looked at Norma Augus and spoke, “Norma, you’re sensible. You should take your mother and leave quickly.”

His words indirectly told Norma that she was not involved in this matter. If she continued to interfere, things could get worse.

What Norma needed to do at this moment was to act prudently, not act as if she was wronged after benefitting from the situation.

Norma also understood what Ivan Perryne meant. After considering it for a while, she looked at her mother and said, “Mom, let’s go home first.”

How could Phoebe be willing to leave just like that?

They had already left the funeral home, and the next step was to bury Mrs. Perryne.

If they were to turn back now, it would be very unlucky and could seriously affect their luck.

At this moment, Norma’s phone rang. She took out her phone, her expression easing somewhat. She lowered her voice and said, “Mom, Master Wang has already found a new geomantically favorable location for Grandma at the fastest speed.”

Geomantically favorable location?

How could one possibly find a geomantically favorable location in such a short period of time!

It must be some cemetery that no one else is interested in.

Phoebe holding the urn, standing still, remaining silent.

She knew.

Once they withdrew, her mother would never have the chance to be laid to rest in the Perryne Ancestral Tomb!

Her mother, who had followed her father selflessly all her life, even bearing the brunt of criticism in her early years, was now denied the qualification to be buried in the ancestry tomb in the end!
