Chapter 2049
Persistence Over Inheritance
Patrick’s words left Sheila shaken as she doubted everything she knew about paternal love. I used to
think Dad loved me as much as the boys. Now, I know how deeply rooted his stupid and unfair sexism
is. He sees me as an outsider!
“If I’m an outsider, why do you need me to help you secure a loan with the Seet family by leveraging on
my relationship with them?”
Patrick was momentarily taken aback before answering matter-of-factly, “Because you’re my daughter.
It’s your duty to enrich the Muir family to the best of your ability.”
“In other words, Dad, I have no access to the Muirs’ fortune because I’m an outsider, but I need to
exercise my duty as your daughter to lend the family a helping hand? As the second most powerful
family in the city, have you ever even considered giving me anything at all? Everything is going to the
boys, isn’t it?”
“Of course, I love you, Sheila,” Patrick argued. “But the family fortune can only remain with those who
bear the family name. Besides, you’re living it up in the Seet residence, aren’t you? I’m sure you have
more than enough to keep you comfortable without having to dip into my fortune.”
“If I had married an ordinary man instead of Davin, one who barely earns enough to get us by every
month, would I inherit a share, then?”
“You belong to your husband’s family after marriage, Sheila. I’ll give you some dowry but that’s all you’ll
get. As I said, the Muir fortune stays in the family.”
Sheila gazed steadily at her father. “I guess that’s a no.” Patrick’s features hardened. “Are you trying to
fight for a slice?”
“Don’t worry, Dad. I can survive without a dime from you. Even if I ran into trouble, Davin and his family
wouldn’t abandon me as you did. Besides, I do not need to fight for anything since the law dictates
daughters are equally entitled to the inheritance. I know the Muir family fortune is yours to distribute as
you see fit. Unlike you, I wouldn’t hold a grudge for the sake of money. I’m an outsider after all; I have
nothing to do with this family anymore because I now belong to the Seet family. Don’t come to me
anymore for help regarding your problems, Dad. You’ve made it clear that I’m not part of your family.”
Patrick was scandalized at his daughter’s outburst.
“How could you say that, Sheila? You-”
“What do you think Sheila should do, Dad?” Davin interrupted.
“Honor her family!” Patrick raged. “She has been raised by the Muir family. My family! It’s a debt that
she can never-”
“Never finish repaying?” Davin suggested.
Patrick froze. Gulping as if he had swallowed a lemon whole, he nodded stiffly. “Exactly!”
Unable to bear the heart-wrenching pain any longer, Sheila stood up and strode out with Davin on her
heels.
“I’m coming for the two billion one way or another, Sheila,” her father called after them. “First thing
tomorrow, I’ll- no, scratch that. I will drop by the Seet residence tonight and turn Jonathan’s household
upside down.”
Sheila grew incensed. He doesn’t even respect me as his daughter! Will he be satisfied after ruining
the harmony of the Seet family?
“Do whatever you want,” she spat with one last scornful look at her father.
Davin rounded on his father-in-law. “Think of the consequences before you come causing trouble in my
house. Consider yourself warned.”
“What’s the worst you can do to me?” Patrick jeered, standing his ground. “Kick me out? When I’m
done with your father and you, you’ll both be famous on the internet for being an adulterer and an
arrogant b*stard respectively. We’ll see what Y City has to say about that!”
