Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 174

Edward and Cathy were shocked.

Cathy, in particular, ran inside to check. The workers were methodically packing and moving goods out. There wasn't a single scorch mark or trace of fire anywhere.

“How is this possible... Ralph clearly...” Cathy was dumbfounded.

“Ralph clearly told you that a huge fire started here last night, but now everything is fine, right?” Elena walked up to her, finishing her sentence.

“Elena, what the hell are you playing at?” Cathy clenched her fists, speaking through gritted teeth.

“I’m not playing anything. I was managing the company just fine, but you came looking for trouble, insisting the place burned down and that we hid it. But clearly, there was no fire.”

“They all saw the flames last night!”

“I told you already, that was the factory next door. It’s very close to us, so from a distance, it looked like our warehouse was burning. In reality, it had nothing to do with us.”

Elena finished speaking and looked at the old woman.

“Grandma, my dad has been managing the company perfectly well, but Uncle Edward and Cathy insisted on finding fault. You need to stand up for us! In fact, I suspect Uncle Edward knows something about this. Last night, two thieves actually did come to the warehouse intending to start a fire, but we caught them. I hadn't even reported the incident yet, and Uncle Edward and Cathy brought you here to interrogate us.”

“I have to wonder, Uncle Edward, did you already know? And did those two thieves have anything to do with you? Uncle, I never expected that in order to drive my dad and me away, you wouldn’t even care about the company’s interests. You’re too cruel!”

Elena’s words made Edward panic.

“Elena, don’t talk nonsense! Why would I send someone to attack the company? A fire causing losses would do me no good! Mom, don’t listen to her!” Edward rushed to explain.

“Enough!” the old woman roared.

She glared at Edward and Cathy. “You father and daughter... do you have nothing better to do? Dragging an old woman all this way just to falsely accuse your brother and Elena. Have you lost your minds?”
