?Chapter 707:


    Jolie took a sip of water, regaining someposure. “Why would this house be transferred to you? What are you talking about, Elyse?” The property had already been transferred to Elena, making Elyse’s ims impossible.


    Elyse calmly pulled a contract from her bag. “Jolie, have you forgotten? Here’s your signature.”


    Jolie’s face hardened as she confronted Elyse’s audacity. “This contract is not valid.”


    “Jolie, it seems your memory isn’t serving you well today. But that’s alright,” Elyse said, her tone steady and confident. “Just stop by the notary office and have it verified. Once you see it, I’m sure everything wille back to you.”


    Elyse was certain the signature on the contract belonged to Jolie. After all, she had personally guided Jolie’s hand during the signing.


    Elyse was so certain of her victory that she didn’t bother verifying the vi’s ownership.


    Jolie regarded Elyse with a look of estrangement, her voice dripping with scorn. “Yes, I signed it, but the contract holds no weight.”


    Elyse scoffed, slightly amused. “Jolie, are you out of your mind? Your signature legally binds this contract…”


    “The vi isn’t mine anymore. My signature means nothing,” Jolie said coldly.


    “What? That can’t be right!” Elyse’s confident smile faltered, her eyes widening in shock. “How can that be? This vi was Alexander’s wedding gift to you. If it’s not in your name, then who owns it?”


    Jolie answered, “Indeed, it was a gift from Alexander. However, once Elena came back, I transferred ownership to her. Elena legally owns the vi now.”


    Any contract Jolie might have signed without realizing it was now irrelevant. The vi rightfully belonged to Elena, and no one could strip it from her hands.


    Elyse’s frustration boiled over as she muttered inwardly, “Elena, always Elena!”


    She clenched her fists, biting her lip in a vain attempt to suppress her rising envy. Why did everything always go to Elena?

    Overwhelmed by frustration, Elyse blurted out, “Why her and not me?”


    Jolie’s expression remained resolute, refusing to justify her decisions to Elyse. Elena was her flesh and blood, the daughter she hadn’t been around for the past twenty years. Now that Elena was back, Jolie was determined to give her everything she had. She owed no one an exnation.


    When Keith heard the vi had been transferred to Elena, his face fell. “Elyse, you imed this vi was yours?”


    Caught without aeback, Elyse seethed with anger. “Keith, it’s all their doing. They favor Elena unjustly. This was supposed to be my home, not hers!”


    Jolie felt deep weariness and profound disappointment. Twenty years of nurturing Elyse had culminated in bitterness.


    Elyse’s face hardened. The ten billion dors was still at stake. In a desperate move, she snatched Jolie’s phone. “Give me the password! Transfer the money now!”


    Jolie reached for her phone, but Elyse shoved her, causing her to hit her head against the ss coffee table.


    The butler’s face went pale with worry. “Mrs. Harper!” he eximed. Before he could step in, another figure rushed to Jolie’s aid, catching her just in time.


    The butler’s relief was evident when he saw Elena. “Miss Harper, it’s good to see you’ve returned.”


    Elena gently helped Jolie to the couch, her concern deepening as she noticed Jolie’s paleplexion.
