Lady Wilson was a typical person who would take advantage and get rid of someone when he or she had ceased to be useful. Back then, she needed Jennifer to back her up in the detention center. So, at that time, she was extremely courteous to her and even treated her like her own daughter. However, in reality, she loathed vulgar shrews like Jennifer.Hence, she had completely forgotten about Jennifer since the day she was released from the detention center.To her, Jennifer was just a necessary tool on a special occasion. As soon as the crucial moment had passed, she would not want to be associated with her anymore. However, never in her wildest dream did she imagine that Jennifer would somehow appear in her house!Jennifer did not expect that Lady Wilson denied all the deeds that she had done.From her point of view, it was Lady Wilson who had bailed them out, arranged for a driver to bring them to Thompson First, and even registered their fingerprints into the house’s securit

Lady Wilson asked maliciously, “Did I ever ask for your help? When did I say that I needed you to help me teach my daughter-in-law a lesson? It was entirely because you couldn't stand the sight of Elaine, so you beat her up!”Jennifer glared at her in disbelief and was utterly disappointed. “Lady Wilson, your attitude just turns on a dime! Back then, we defended you and protected you with all our might, but this is what we get in the end!”Lady Wilson said with a blank look on her face, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but this is also a lesson for you: to tell you to know your own place and stop thinking about making friends with someone out of your reach!”Gritting her teeth indignantly, Jennifer said, “Oh! Old coot, is that so? Fine! I’ll just stay here! Let’s see what you can do about it!”Yulia and Yara said in unison, “That’s right! We won’t leave!”Lady Wilson did not expect them to be perverse, so she growled coldly, “Stop your prattles and ask for the impossible. Why don’t y

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

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

Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim

Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…
