Chapter 1996
Hannah shouted desperately, “Who are you to expel me?! Why aren’t you paying me a salary?!” No matter how loudly she shouted, no one pitied her nor sympathized with her. When Hannah was about to be dragged out from the supermarket, the manager said to Charlie and Jacob apologetically, “Let me offer my sincere apologies to both of you. It was my fault for hiring an unsuitable candidate to work here.” Jacob nodded, then he said, “It wasn’t your fault. Nonetheless, you are responsible for this incident as you didn’t hire the suitable worker!” Jacob then sighed and said melancholically, “You have poor judgement.” The manager nodded his head in embarrassment, “Your criticism is right. I’ll learn from my mistakes!” Jacob patted his shoulder and said proudly, “You still need more experience!” “Yes!” The manager nodded his head repeatedly. Then, he waved his hand at a cashier who had just finished her meal and was about to start her shift, and he said to her,
Chapter 1997
At this moment, Hannah felt that the days she had here were worse than those days at Mount Blackpine.She cried while reminiscing those days at Mount Blackpine, sighing as she said, “Despite those days at Mount Blackpine being not that good either, at least I did not have to starve when I was with the supervisor!” “Not only did I not have to starve, but I also did not have to do much work. Moreover, I also could gamble with Linda Howard and her family. How I miss those days!”“Although the supervisor looked ugly and was unhygienic, he was good in bed and had enabled me to experience unprecedented feelings…” Thinking of this, Hannah sighed. She sobbed and said to Wendy, who was by her side, “Wendy, how are we going to go through these tough days? We face many problems every day. Gone is our money, our company has gone bankrupt, we’re staying at a stranger's villa, and we hardly even have meals to consume. When will days like these end?” Wendy couldn’t help but cry too a
Chapter 1998
Wendy said, “Gerald and I had gone upstairs to meet Doris. Not only did she refuse to see us, but she also humiliated us by saying that Emgrand Group wouldn’t cooperate with those of the lower class like us. Soon afterward, Gerald was beaten up by Emgrand Group’s security guard…” Wendy then continued, “Later on, Emgrand Group terminated the partnership with the White family. Gerald’s father and uncle were very furious. Ever since then, Gerald started to stray away from me while his uncle, Zeke, had grown closer with Charlie. He even gifted Charlie the villa next to his…” “After that, the agreement between Claire and Emgrand Group had been terminated as a result of Grandma breaking her promise. Since then, our family has gone downhill…” “Wendell used to pursue Claire. Amidst that, his family was declared bankrupt. Since then, he had also disappeared into thin air...” “Likewise, Jason Grant used to court Claire. Eventually, Jason and his father, Justin disappeared. To

When Hannah heard that Wendy was willing to be Charlie’s concubine, she felt anxious. She blurted out, “Wendy, have you lost your mind? Why must you be that loser’s concubine? He’s no match for you!” Wendy sighed, then said softly, “Mother, to be honest, Charlie isn’t bad. He is handsome, responsible, and has a good personality. He’s way better than Gerald.” “Ridiculous!” Hannah glared at her before blurting out, “That loser is no match for you in any way!” Wendy smiled bitterly, “In these years, my situation cannot be any worse. I’ve fallen from being a phoenix to becoming a chicken now.” Speaking of this, Wendy couldn’t help but sobbed, “Mother, look at me. My reputation is gone. No guys will bother to give me even a single glance…” Seeing Wendy’s tears streamed down on her face, Hannah embraced her head into her arm and comforted her, “My lovely daughter, we shouldn’t think this way. What is reputation? Isn’t staying alive more important than anything e
Chapter 2000
“Others might still have chosen a loser as a life long partner even after taking into various considerations, worries and possibilities.” “Nonetheless, for Claire, she accepted what may come from God and thus, she was married to the loser…” “Who would’ve thought a loser will turn into a phoenix someday later…” Wendy nodded, then said seriously, “Someday, I’ll get closer to Charlie regardless of how he may despise me. He may more or less be able to lend us a helping hand. Unlike the outsiders, no one is as good as Charlie…” Hannah sighed, then said, “It’s up to you. I had overreacted just now and now I’m starving. Please help me into the house so I can lie down for a bit. We’ll have our meals after your grandma returns.”*** Lady Wilson had been pulling the plastic bags for the customers at the supermarket for an entire day. The supermarket was equipped with big rolls of plastic bags. One pull of the plastic bag would instantly generate static electricity.
Chapter 2001
Lady Wilson had never experienced a day like this before, where she was extremely excited over a meal. She did according to what the foreman said. So, she worked hard till seven o’clock and finally, she received her dream meal coupon. Despite the full lunch, Lady Wilson wolfed the food down as if she had starved for three days. She filled herself up to the point where she could hardly stand up. When she could no longer continue to eat, she rested in place for about half an hour. After that, she forced herself up with two hands clutching the table. She felt energetic after sufficient food and drink. Lady Wilson wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, then touched her belly with her palm. She sighed in satisfaction, thinking, Never thought the food would taste so good after so much hard work is put forth. Finally, I have had sufficient food to satisfy my hunger! She then checked her time and realized it was already past eight. She then quickly went home. Despite
Chapter 2002
How she wished Elaine was indeed as pitiful as how she had described her! In fact, the more pitiful was Elaine, the better! Nonetheless, the caterer didn’t know she was lying at all. Who would have thought any ordinary old lady would curse her own family members out of the blue? Therefore, the caterer believed everything that came from her mouth was true. She replied with sympathy, “No wonder you still have to work outside at such an old age. It must be very tough for you to have experienced all those misfortunes in your family!” She then said, “Old lady, there’re still some leftovers of about seven to eight steamed buns and the portion of remaining rice is sufficient for four people. Also, there are some remnants of dishes. Do you have any containers? I’ll pack for you to bring home!” Lady Wilson felt very excited, yet, she calmed herself and said melancholically, “How can I afford any containers? Both my daughters-in-laws are barely surviving due to starvation…”She
Chapter 2003
Lady Wilson had never thought that she would be slapped by a stranger after one whole day of hard work and hardship. After the lady slapped her, she continued to scold her, “D*mn old lady! How dare you pretend to be a resident at Thompson First when you’re now eating disgusting leftovers! Crazy woman!” She then yelled at a security guard who was nearby, “You come over here right now! Aren’t you blinded? I’ve spent twenty million for a house here and this is the attitude you show us? Who’ll protect the interests and feelings of the landlords if this messy old woman, who is worse than pigs and dogs, is allowed to get in here?” The security guard felt nervous too. Lady Wilson looked haggard and tired, unlike the typical wealthy old lady. Besides, the leftovers such as steamed buns, rice, and messy remnants of dishes inside the four big plastic bags were totally inconsistent with the characteristics of the residents of Thompson First. He then said hurriedly to
