"Thank you for not disregarding your past grievances against me, Aurora. In order to express my gratitude and apology, I seized all the property from the Samuel's family and recovered the 3 million teals that were given to them, as well as the 15 shop teals. After years of rent receivable, the Denvil family will not take any of the rest. At that time, your uncle will send people to register these properties and distribute them equally to all the people and officers and soldiers of our city." "
The crowd suddenly burst into laughter. A roar of joy erupted.
The moment before, they were just watching a show, taking advantage of the dog-eat-dog situation to help the common people who stepped on them. Now, when they heard that all the money was going to be distributed equally among them, they instantly became excited.
The previous bad opinion towards Aurora disappeared at this moment.
"Miss Denvil is such a kind-hearted person. We misunderstood her before."
"Yes, you can see it when you see her helping Jonathan's family. She is actually a good person who is willing to give charity, she just blinded by that unscrupulous scoundrel Jonathan."
"Jonathan family and Samuel family are so shameless. They live on others, eat others, use others without saying anything, and make a fortune with their money, but in the end they want to kill them."
"Isn't that right? !
"Exactly! They deserve to die! This is why refugees are refugees! They can betray their own country, seek refuge in another, and even try to kill their benefactors for personal gain. How despicable! Do they think all of us, the citizens, are dead?!"
"Right! Why don't we find a gentleman and petition to express that all of us citizens in Mystic Hollow City do not agree to have that unfaithful man, Jonathan, become the son-in-law? How about that?"
"Good!"
As much as the excited crowd liked Aurora at this moment, they hated Jonathan and his family. Even Princess Calista, who was said to have fallen in love with him, she now became the subject of public condemnation, labeled as the shameless woman who tried to steal someone else's fiancé. She gradually gained a bad reputation across the country.
Aurora expressed gratitude to the people, feeling a bit touched. After all, the troubles caused by both families were instigated by the former Aurora. Now that former Aurora was dead, she had to clean up this mess.
"Thank you all fellow villagers for disregarding the past grievances against me, if you have offended me in the past, please don't take it personally.
Samuel felt extremely angry when he saw Aurora using his family wealth to act like a good person in front of others.
"Aurora, you just gave us 15 shops. At worst, we will pay you back the rent for the past two years! Why do you let the Denvil family army raid our home? It is our private property, what do you have? Are you qualified to give away our private property to others at will? In the end, it makes you look bad?"
"Nonsense!" Aurora scolded Samuel without thinking.
"Private property? Without me, Aurora, where did you get your private property? Don't tell me that it was the property you brought with you when you fled to Mystic Hollow City.
If you had money at that time, you would have fled from Astralon State Come to our country's Weeping City? Will you be willing to be refugees in our Weeping City and accept the unified resettlement of the Devlin family army? Can you accept the days of one vegetarian dish and one white rice every day?
Unless... you are spies sent by the Astralon State, Otherwise, where did the money come from? Come on, Samuel, tell me, if you are not spies, where did these so-called private properties come from?" The expressions on Samuel and Peter's face instantly became extremely ugly.
