Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 956

At the time, Mr. Hill Sr. was the patriarch of the family. He collapsed from the shock of the betrayal, and when he woke, only his eldest son and daughter-in-law—Lester's parents—remained by his side.

In those dark times, it was Mignon and her husband who stood by the old man, helping him navigate the crisis. With most of the family's capital gone, they endured years of hardship. The strain took a heavy toll on Lester's father, whose poor health led to an early death.

Although the Hill family pulled through, they were a shadow of their former selves. Their company, for instance, was lost in the turmoil.

The upheaval left the patriarch's health shattered. After Lester was born, Mr. Hill Sr. became bedridden, and the weight of the entire family fell on Mignon's shoulders.

Mignon never once complained. Through sheer determination, she managed to buy back the company, and from that point on, the family's fortunes slowly began to recover.

Just as things were looking up, the very relatives who had abandoned them and moved abroad returned.

Having squandered their fortunes on failed investments, they came back claiming they wanted to fulfill their filial duties.

Lester's father had only recently passed away, leaving the old couple deep in grief. Mrs. Hill Sr., who had always favored her other two sons, couldn't find it in her heart to turn them away. And so, they were welcomed back into the Hill family.

These two branches of the family have been a constant source of trouble ever since. They were the ones who orchestrated sending young Lester away to a monastery, and with the matriarch's protection, Mignon was powerless to stop them.

In the end, she had to make the painful decision to send her son away, steeling herself to finally bring order to the Hill family.

Without Lester as a vulnerability they could exploit, her brothers-in-law were no match for her. The years that followed were, for the most part, peaceful.
