Christopher’s eyes were flushed red as he said, “Mom, I’ll go out and work when I get better. Even if I have to go to the construction site and carry cement, I will make sure that I do everything possible to make money to make up for this family’s living expenses. I won’t allow you to go out and suffer and work so hard when you are already so old!”Harold also said vaguely, “Grandma, I’ll also go then!”Lady Wilson nodded before she said, “Both of you should focus on recuperating and recovering. After both of you get well, I’ll have to depend on you two to look after me and give me a proper burial after my death then!”As the Wilson family of four finally enjoyed a full meal, Hannah cried in her own room to the point that her face was covered in tears.As she was suffering from hunger and cold, Hannah did not only feel despair because of the Wilson family, but she had also made a decision in her heart to prepare to leave this place.She did not intend to stay in this house any lon
Since Claire and Loreen had already known each other for so many years, Claire also had some understanding of her family situation. When she heard that Loreen was planning to bring her cousin here with her, she asked curiously, “Loreen, is Dylan the cousin that you’re referring to?”Loreen laughed slightly before she said, “Yes, that’s him.”“Ahhh?” Claire suddenly recalled the image of that good-for-nothing young man from a wealthy family and she asked in surprise, “What is your cousin doing in Aurous Hill?”Loreen replied, “After staying in Eastcliff for such a long time, he is always causing trouble there. So, he came to Aurous Hill to discipline himself for a while.”Claire asked in surprise, “Discipline himself? How is he going to discipline himself?”Loreen smiled before he said, “He’s going to practice a scanty livelihood. He is currently renting a place to live in Cliffcouls now and the living conditions aren’t that easy and it is really tough.”Claire could not help but
After Loreen, who was sitting in the co-driver’s seat, hung up the phone with Claire, Dylan scowled miserably as he asked, “Loreen, can’t you go to Charlie’s house on your own? Why do you have to bring me along with you? I really don’t want to see his face for a minute at all.”When Loreen saw Dylan’s face which was filled with grievances, she could not help but ridiculed him as she said, “Brother, aren’t you being a little too timid and cowardly? I’m bringing you to Charlie’s house to send our New Year’s greetings. I’m not sending you there to fight with Charlie, so what are you afraid of?”Dylan sighed as he said, “Sigh. Loreen, you might not know this, but I’ve only met Charlie Wade twice in total and nothing good happens whenever I see him! The first time I met him, I had to swallow a necklace and undergo a surgery because of it. The second time I met him, he asked me to ride a bicycle all the way from Eastcliff to Aurous Hill. If he isn’t happy when I see him again this time, th
Dylan had asked the question so suddenly that Loreen had no time to cover up at all. She was flustered and she hurriedly replied out of embarrassment as she said, “You…you…don’t talk nonsense. I…I don’t like Charlie!”“I don’t believe you!” Dylan curled his lips as he said, “I’ve been pursuing so many different girls for so many years so I understand women very well. Based on your current reaction, I can be certain that you have a crush on Charlie!”Loreen pretended to feel very impatient and said, “Oh! You can think whatever you want to. I am too lazy to be bothered with you.”Dylan reminded her, “Loreen, Charlie is a married man so you’d better stay away from him. Otherwise, if word gets out to the public that the eldest young lady of the Thomas family is in love with a married man, then the Thomas family will certainly lose face because of you!”When Loreen heard this, she suddenly became very angry and she blurted out, “You actually have the face to talk about me? The whole cit
Just as Dylan was driving towards Thompson First, a series of loud curses broke out early in the morning in the quiet villa area of Thompson First.It was Lady Wilson who was cursing out loud.When she woke up early in the morning, she realized that the two hundred dollars in her pocket was already gone.The first thought that came to her mind was that her money had been stolen!At that time, she immediately thought that there was an 80% chance that her money had been stolen by Jennifer and the other two women.However, when she was about to drag Hannah with her to go and confront Jennifer, she discovered the note that Hannah left behind and she realized that Hannah was already gone.At this moment, Lady Wilson realized that her hard-earned money of two hundred dollars had already been stolen by her eldest daughter-in-law, Hannah.She exploded in an instant!After all, she had endured a lot of hardships and sufferings in exchange for that two hundred dollars, even getting beate
Elaine was cooking on the first floor. When she heard Lady Wilson cursing out loud early in the morning, she hurried out with her crutches to watch the excitement.At this time, Charlie and Claire also happened to be walking down the stairs. They happened to see Elaine who was coming out with her crutch.Elaine hurriedly asked excitedly, “Oh! Did both of you hear that d*mned old lady cursing out loud?”Charlie and Claire nodded. After that, Claire replied embarrassedly, “I wonder what’s wrong with Grandma? Why did she start cursing out loud on the balcony on the second floor early in the morning?”When Elaine heard this, she said excitedly, “Claire, hurry up! Help me up the stairs to go have a look!”Claire replied helplessly, “Mom, what is there to look at…”Elaine put her right arm on the crutch as she patted her left leg and blurted out, “What else would be better to look at compared to this? Hurry up and help me up quickly! Otherwise, if I’m late, I won’t be able to watch the
The several police officers immediately became very energetic and vigilant when they heard this!After all, anyone who could live in a villa at Thompson First would certainly be very strong financially. Therefore, the old lady’s so-called ‘hard-earned money’ would certainly be an astronomical figure.Thinking about it, they could afford to live in a villa that was worth more than one hundred million dollars at will, so what would three to five million dollars be worth to them anyway? It was estimated that they would only frown slightly even if they lost thirty to fifty million dollars!However, since the old lady was acting this way and feeling so depressed, then it seemed as though this amount would definitely be worth more than thirty to fifty million dollars!Perhaps this might even be an extremely large theft case!Therefore, the several police officers hurried into the house before they asked Wendy directly, “When did the theft happen? How much money was stolen?”Wendy felt
As she was faced with the police officer’s confirmation, Lady Wilson nodded as she gritted her teeth and said, “That’s right. It’s two hundred dollars!”The police officer thought that there was a problem with his ears.“An old lady who is living in the most luxurious villa at Thompson First would actually call the police and file a police report for two hundred dollars? That cannot be right…”As he thought about this, he secretly thought, Could it be that all rich people talk like this and simply refer to two million dollars as two hundred? During my last class reunion, the rich heir in my class was also the same when he talked about his luxury car. It was obviously a Rolls-Royce that had cost more than five million dollars. However, when anyone asked him about the price, he would simply say that it was a little more than five hundred. Is this a common problem that the wealthy people have?As he thought about this, the police officer could not help but feel a little puzzled. It st
