He usually tried to comfort her and asked her not to meddle too much in family affairs. After all, Mary was her sister. What harm would it do to let her stay at home after her divorce? But after everything that had happened today, the words he had kept inside for a long time just came pouring out. Mary wasn’t the only one stunned by his words. Henry himself was taken aback by what he had said. Scolding her was one thing, but he had gone too far.Emily, who had just washed her hands and come out of the kitchen, was equally surprised when she heard Henry. Emily often complained to Henry about Mary being lazy and acting like a princess at home. Emily had to do all the housework alone.The Stiggs were c

Chapter 294 Eager to Find Her

"For Becca's good?"Henry couldn't help but find it amusing. "Mary, don't you feel ashamed saying that? When Zelda lost her kid, you showed no sympathy and even seemed to take pleasure in her misfortune. "Now that Becca has returned, you suddenly want to act concerned for her?" Emily chimed in, "That's right. Becca just came back. Zelda and her husband haven't even thought about her marriage. But you're in such a hurry to 'help' her? "You have thick skin. You've been kicked out of Johnson Residence a few times. Now our nephew even has to call Henry and ask us to keep an eye on you. We don't want to get involved in your affairs."Seeing Mary's pale face, Emily felt a sense of satisfaction. She had finally gotten the chance to release her years of pent-up frustration.

She had endured so much that she had turned herself into a doormat for

"Mom, what are you all talking about? It looks like you're having a great time."Rebecca walked up to Zelda and affectionately put her arm around her mother's shoulder. Her gaze shifted to the couple sitting opposite Zelda.The couple met her gaze, too. Emily said, "This must be Becca. She's grown up to be quite beautiful." Hearing her sister-in-law's compliment for her daughter, Zelda smiled and nodded. "Yes, this is Becca. I wanted to take her to visit Mom and Dad in a few days when Albert and Sammy are free, but I didn't expect you two to visit today."Smiling, she held Rebecca's hand and introduced the couple opposite them."This is your Uncle Henry and Aunt Emily. They just came back from the hospital after visiting your grandfather. Go ahead and say hello.""Uncle Henry, Aunt Emily."Rebecca sweetly greeted them without sparing any compliments. "Speaking of genetics in our family, it's really strong. The men in our family are all handsome. When I first saw Uncle Henry

Chapter 296 Take Me Along

"That's wonderful to hear."Henry was happy that Rebecca liked the gift.After all, the Johnsons didn't lack anything. He was worried that Rebecca wouldn't like valuable items like these.Serena was the total opposite of Rebecca. But they always turned a blind eye to her behavior. Now, with a clear comparison, Henry thought that Rebecca was way better than Serena.She was beautiful, kind-hearted, and sweet.He wished Rebecca had returned home a couple of years earlier. If she had been in Rookfort all along, he wouldn't have cared much about Serena.It was always a pleasure to exchange genuine affection with someone who appreciated it.

Chapter 297 Jimmy Stigg

Rebecca was worried about Zelda's health, too.If Sam hadn't found Zelda the other day, she might have been in the hospital right now. She wouldn't have the energy to chat with them here. Rebecca didn't want Zelda to move around too much before she fully recovered.Zelda found it amusing. "I'm not a porcelain doll. I won't break if I go somewhere. I'm feeling better now after receiving all the treatment for the past two years."Zelda stood up and turned around under the sunlight. She wanted to show them she was fine, like a child who had recovered from an illness."See, I look much better, don't I? I can definitely go to the hospital."Her mindset had improved significantly since Rebecca had returned. She needed to rest more due to her occasional heart palpitations. But she was no longer bedridden like an elderly person with a serious illness. Rebecca was still worried. "Your complexion has improved, but your physical condition hasn't fully recovered yet. I've met Grandpa be

Chapter 298 Someone Unfamiliar

Claude didn't delay either. He shared the recording footage of the security camera at the front door with Zelda. It clearly showed the young man's face as he got out of the car. It was someone unfamiliar, indeed.The young man was wearing glasses. Zelda thought his face looked somewhat familiar, but it was probably not Daniel or Ryan. She was relieved. "Let him come in, then. I suppose he's Becca's friend. Be polite to him.""Alright," Claude answered.Hence, Maxwell was invited to enter Johnson Residence immediately after.Despite having taken over the Jenkins family for years, Maxwell was still amazed by how spectacular Johnson Residence was. Still, he thought it was something expected from the Johnsons. Even though the Jenkins in Amdale and the Winstons in Riverwood were considered on par with the Johnsons, there was still a significant difference between the families.Especially since the Johnson family's sons had been so united in recent years that their companies and p

Chapter 299 Inquiring About Maxwell

Rebecca wasn't aware of their glances since she had turned away. Maxwell, on the other hand, had seen everything as he was still sitting in the same spot. He suppressed his emotions in his eyes calmly and took a sip of his tea.He had just moved his lips away from the edge of the teacup when Zelda asked, "From what I've heard, your surname is Jenkins, right? May I know where you are from and where you are working?""Yes, I'm a Jenkins. I'm currently staying at Amdale. I'm not sure if you've heard about Maxwell Jenkins from KL Group," Maxwell replied politely.Zelda didn't actually pay attention to what had been happening in businesses recently. She had been recuperating and resting at Johnson Residence. It was natural that she knew nothing about the Jenkins family from Amdale.However, Henry's reaction answered her doubts. "You're the son of the Jenkins family in Amdale? You're Maxwell Jenkins?"Maxwell pushed his glasses up his nose. "Yes."Henry exclaimed in admiration, "Yo
