Chapter 2013
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

After that, the police officer said again, “Madam, if your daughter-in-law only stole two hundred dollars from you, we really cannot file a case on this matter. You can only blame her for stealing too little. If she secretly stole your television to sell it off, based on the price of the television at the time the television was purchased, that would be sufficient for us to file a theft case against her. However, she did not steal your television at all!”The police officer was simply using a television as an analogy. However, at this time, Lady Wilson suddenly thought of the television set in Donald’s villa that she had sold together with Harold and Christopher. She was shocked, and she suddenly asked nervously, “Officer, if someone stole a television that is worth one hundred thousand dollars, what kind of sentence would that person receive?”The police officer replied seriously, “If the television was really worth one hundred thousand dollars, that would already be an extremely bi

At this time, when Elaine, who was standing on the balcony on the third floor, saw Lady Wilson asking Wendy to send the group of police officers off, she grinned as she said, “Oh! Old lady, weren’t you planning to call the police to arrest your eldest daughter-in-law? Why? Has your heart gone soft again? It seems as though you really seem to have a soft spot for your eldest daughter-in-law!”Lady Wilson was already feeling very uncomfortable at this time. Therefore, when she heard Elaine chattering on the other side, she instantly got angry and frustrated, and she started cursing, “Elaine, my family’s affairs have nothing to do with you. Stop chirping all day and being so annoying here.”“Oh! You think that I am annoying?” Elaine sneered as she said, “Don’t live next door to our house if you think that I am annoying!”As she spoke, Elaine sneered as she said, “Yesterday, I heard Jacob saying that you got a job at the supermarket now? That’s not bad, old lady. You have not done anyth

Elaine smiled as she said, “Silly girl! I was just lying to her. Where could I possibly buy any Oskian breakfast food during the New Year? Besides, I don’t even know how to cook those dishes at all. I was just trying to make that bad old woman angry!”Elaine continued speaking, “You might not know it, but your grandmother really enjoys eating Oskian breakfast food. She would always go to the teahouse for the entire morning just to enjoy some good Oskian breakfast food. Every time she goes there, she would always eat an extremely hearty meal like a queen! She would order a whole table full of food each time. Now that she has already fallen into poverty, why wouldn’t I take advantage of this situation to stimulate her and criticize her, then?”Claire sighed helplessly as she said, “Mom, don’t you think that it is about time for you to let go of the grudge between you and grandma now? She is already so old. So, you should not continue to argue with her like that anymore.”Elaine replie
Chapter 2019
Charlie never expected Elaine to be able to judge Loreen so accurately.In truth, Charlie had already guessed her true motive when Loreen initially arrived at the Emgrand Group.It had to be because the Thomas family had heard the news that the Wade family had arranged for a descendant to be in Aurous Hill, and they had even bought the Emgrand Group as a gift for that descendant. Therefore, the Thomas family must have felt that this was the perfect opportunity for them to get ahead of everyone else. This was the reason why they arranged for Loreen to work in the Emgrand Group.Charlie had initially planned to prevent Loreen from being able to contact him during her time in the Emgrand Group. If that was the case, if she failed to encounter him even after a long time, Charlie believed that she would certainly leave Aurous Hill soon.However, who would have expected Loreen to fall in love with Charlie instead?Therefore, from the moment Loreen had confessed her love to Charlie, he a

Claire laughed as she said, “Mom, the more you talk about it, the more incredulous your story sounds! You are even talking about digging tunnels now! Do you really think that you are Captain Mojin?”When Elaine saw that Claire did not seem to believe in anything that she was saying at all, she could not help but blurt out anxiously, “Seriously, Claire! Why don’t you believe anything I say? Over the years, many tombs have opened up near my grandmother’s house. A particularly famous tomb, the Halchester Tomb, was unearthed not too far away from my grandmother’s house. Have you heard of the Halchester Tomb before?”Claire nodded before she said, “I heard that it seems to be a very important archaeological discovery in history. What is wrong with this tomb?”“What is wrong with this tomb?!” Elaine hummed as she said, “Let me tell you, the reason why this tomb was eventually discovered by the cultural relics department, was because when the tomb robbers were trying to dig a tunnel, they
