Chapter 1949
Lady Wilson was dumbstruck all of a sudden.Jennifer and the ladies were actually sent here by Donald Webb?What was Dona thinking?!Could it be that the helpers that he said he had arranged for herself, were these three people?!While she was in a trance, Jennifer blurted out in excitement upon hearing the burly man’s words, “Sir, are you sure? Can we really live here?”The man nodded. “Of course! The driver earlier has already registered your fingerprints on the home security, hasn’t he? So, you can treat this place like your own home!”Lady Wilson cried out desperately, “Can you please tell Mr. Webb that we don’t want such helpers? They are nothing but illiterate peasants, what can they possibly do for us? Can you please get us three professional caregivers, preferably the kinds who can also do both laundry and cooking?”The man chided in a cold voice, “You wish! Old lady, I find that although you look old and ugly, you have quite a creative imagination! Who do you think you

Jennifer said, “We toured the rooms in this villa just now and found that the Wilson family had occupied all the big and nice rooms, leaving only those cheap and tiny rooms. Since the three of us have equal rights with them, can we ask for the room reallocation?”“That’s right!” Yulia came to her senses and said in excitement, “We would like to stay in the big bedroom facing south!”The man tried to stir up trouble and said with a smile, “Of course. We don’t care about the room reallocation, just sort them out yourselves.”“Wonderful!” Jennifer immediately said, “I want the big bedroom on the third floor! Whose bedroom is that? Hurry up and pack your things, or I’ll just throw everything out!”Lady Wilson shouted furiously, “How dare you! That is my room! No one can take it!”Jennifer laughed coldly, “Old coot, get the hell out of my face! Earlier, I gave you my respect and the three of us sincerely wanted to seek refuge with you and look after you as if our own mother! Never have

Lady Wilson felt as if the world was spinning around her after Jennifer slapped her.Never did she expect that Jennifer did not make a move against her, despite all those insulting slanders being thrown at her earlier. Yet when she showed the white feather, she rubbed Jennifer the wrong way. Although Jennifer was a crude person, she was indeed a filial daughter.When she heard about her mother attempted suicide by drinking pesticide, after being forced by her sister-in-law, she quickly rushed home from her in-laws.At that time, her mother was already terminally ill and was beyond cure.At the hospital, Jennifer’s mother told her in her weak voice that she wanted to go home because it was uncomfortable to stay there.Jennifer knew that her mother knew she was dying, so she wanted to help her family save some money by discontinuing the unnecessary treatments in the hospital.She wanted to take her mother back to her in-laws’ place to show filial respect for her in the remainin
Chapter 1952
Lady Wilson was infuriated, but at this moment, she would not dare to retaliate even if she had the nerve.Donald’s men said in a cold voice, “We are here today on Mr. Webb’s order to empty all the assets in this villa. According to Mr. Webb, other than the hard decorations and large pieces of furniture like beds and sofa, all other appliances, valuable furnishings, as well as the wine in the basement need to be removed from the villa!”Upon hearing this, Lady Wilson was in incomparable despair.Initially, she kept thinking about selling the appliances in the villa and especially those wines in the basement cellar, which could be sold for at least a million dollars, for some extra cash if she had no money. However, she did not expect that rich Donald would take these things into account, and had his men removed them before she could do anything about them!Grimacing, Lady Wilson said, “Gentlemen, you can move the appliances and furniture, but can you keep the wines, please? We like

Never in Lady Wilson’s wildest dream did she expect that Hannah, who was always so submissive, would retaliate and shout back at her.Hannah’s backbiting drove her up the wall. However, after realizing that she had no backup now, she was left utterly deflated and dared not say a word.If she had been nicer to Jennifer at the beginning, the three of them would have become her loyal lapdogs, and Hannah would not dare to make a fuss.Unfortunately, now she had made enemies with Jennifer and the ladies, and if she offended Hannah at this time, she would have no one else to help her.Therefore, she said sheepishly, “I don’t want to fight with you. Hurry and get Christopher back to his room, and then carry Harold in!”Grimaced in pain and choking with sobs, Christopher said, “Mom, thank goodness you still remember me. I can barely hold myself any longer…”Lady Wilson hurriedly said, “Wendy, Hannah. Hurry up and carry Christopher back to his room so that he can take a rest.”As the two

Seeing Harold in such a miserable state, Hannah could not help but shed tears and said, “Harold, I’m sorry but my hands are tied. We have nothing edible at home and Donald’s men have taken everything that we can trade for money. Where can I find you something to eat…”Wendy cried, “Mom, why don’t I go find a job tomorrow?”Hannah nodded and said, “Good idea, but you can only look for a job tomorrow, and wait for the following month for the paycheck. It’s almost New Year’s Eve; we can’t possibly celebrate New Year on an empty stomach…”At this time, Lady Wilson suggested, “That won’t do. Just look for a job that pays on an hourly or daily basis!”Wendy said, “Seems like that’s the only way…”Meanwhile, on the third floor, Jennifer was having a meeting with Yara and Yulia too. They were facing the same situation as the Wilson family — they had no money.So, Jennifer said to the other two, “It’s a blessing that we get to live in such a big and luxurious villa, but we still need to f
Chapter 1955
Charlie marveled at Elaine’s spiritual victory method, and at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief as the matter had been satisfactorily resolved.Before this, he was worried most about Carmen exposing his identity. After all, his aunt was always being so arrogant and cocky in her modus operandi. She would have gotten carried away, and inadvertently revealed herself as a member of the Wade family.Fortunately, Carmen came up with a tawdry idea by directly giving Elaine a 100 million cheque, which caused her to immediately raise a red flag and classify her as a fraud.Moreover, the word “Citibank” stung the deepest and most painful wound inside Elaine, resulting in her direct response to Carmen’s bribe by means of force.At this point, Charlie could not help feeling amused.This aunt of his had been living in a prosperous and privileged environment in Eastcliff for so many years that she was used to being treated with respect everywhere she went. However, never did she expec
Chapter 1956
Carmen was born with a silver spoon stuck in her mouth, and she had enjoyed a good, wealthy life. Due to the privileged and lavish upbringing, she was always arrogant and aloof.The best punishment for her was to let her live a hard life and take the edge off her spirit.With that in mind, Charlie sent a voice message to Albert that said, “Albert, the room and its surroundings look just fine to me, but you must have your men guard her 24/7; never allow her to buy anything online or order takeout!”“If she buys something or orders takeout, your men must intercept the delivery man and make sure it never reaches her.”“As for her daily meals, just let your men buy whatever they feel like buying for her, but bear in mind that it must not exceed fifty dollars a day.”Presently—in Cliffcouls.Albert played the voice message that Charlie had just sent through the loudspeaker.When Carmen heard it, she instantly grimaced. Irritated, she shouted. “This is too much! I can’t do online shop
