Three months after the divorce, something big happened to the Lu family.

While out shopping for groceries, my mother-in-law ran a red light and was hit by a truck, dying on the spot.

She was found at fault for violating traffic rules and had to take full responsibility.

In a past life, it was my mother-in-law and I who went grocery shopping together.

I had intended to wait for the red light, but my mother-in-law insisted on rushing to the supermarket to grab some eggs and dragged me along to run the red light.

Feeling uneasy about running the red light, I kept a close eye on the road.

When the truck turned towards us, I quickly pushed my mother-in-law out of harm's way.

In the end, my mother-in-law only suffered minor injuries, while I ended up bedridden for several months.

But this time, the person who saved her refused to cover for her, leading her to a tragic end.

After my mother-in-law's death, technically Lu Jiaxiang and Lu Jiamei could inherit her house and property.

However, since my mother-in-law did not leave a will, I kindly reminded Lu Jiaxiang's uncles about it.

They are entitled to a share of the inheritance as well.

Initially, they didn't believe it.

After all, in their understanding, after parents pass away, the inheritance should go to the children.

But I kindly educated them that after a person's death, the spouse, children, and parents are all considered first heirs.

Although they were not entitled to inherit the estate, my mother-in-law's mother, as her closest relative, was entitled to a share.

And the inheritance that the grandmother received would ultimately go to them, right?

After our previous falling out, I managed to convince Lu Jiaxiang's relatives, and they immediately encouraged the grandmother to claim the inheritance.

What surprised me was that Lu Jiamei actually took my advice from last time to heart.

She was afraid that Xiaozhang was eyeing her pre-marital assets, so she had all her money stored with her mother-in-law.

Surely, there must be a substantial amount in my mother-in-law's inheritance.

Let them all fight amongst themselves for it.
