Chapter 921 Reflection

Angela blinked her eyes open shortly after they wheeled her into the hospital ward. She was surprised to see that the people who usually dropped by during her past hospital visits were missing this time. James was the only one there. He was talking with a nurse.In her hospital bed, Angela could only catch a glimpse of half of James' face. Even with the limited view, she sensed his weariness and worry. James heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed Angela stirring awake. He quickly made his way over to check on her condition."Are you feeling any better?" James asked with concern as he pulled up a chair beside the bed.Angela stayed quiet. She looked around the empty room with weary eyes. After motioning for James to raise the bed, she finally said, "Where is everyone? Didn't anyone come?"James settled into a chair and asked, "Who were you expecting? Who should be here?"Angela gave James a stern look and snapped, "Who else? Can't a mom hope her child would visit?"James snorte

Chapter 922 Holding a Grudge

Angela looked awkward after hearing James' words. She looked away and snorted, "Well, she's my daughter, so respecting me is a given. What's there to complain about?"James gave her a sarcastic look. If nobody had any complaints, they would have visited Angela in the hospital instead of leaving James alone in the empty ward.James didn't say anything else. He figured if Angela didn't get it, more words wouldn't help. He lowered his head and started tapping on his phone.When Angela noticed his indifference, she couldn't resist asking, "James, what are you doing?""I just texted Mae to tell her you're in the hospital and asked her to come by," James admitted.Angela grew worried. "Why involve Mae? Why stress her out?"The message was already on its way. James tilted his phone and remarked, "Can't undo it now. Someone's got to look out for you, right? You've upset Zelda's family, and if not Mary, then who else? Hire a caretaker? Plus, I bet Mae will be pleased to drop by."He was

Chapter 923 Bring Them Up

Angela quietly savored her meal. No one could tell if it was the delicious food or if James' words had truly touched her, but surprisingly, her gloomy expression gradually faded away. She was in a lighter mood.Angela blurted out those hurtful words to Zelda before fainting because deep down, she just wanted Zelda's well-off family to show a little more concern for Mary.Unfortunately, Angela's harsh words not only hurt Zelda but also brought back memories of past mistreatment. Eventually, Zelda's family stayed away and didn't visit her in the hospital.Back then, Angela pretended to be overwhelmed at first but ended up fainting as her anger grew real.

Chapter 924 Head Back to Rookfort

Mary had her back turned to James. She was clueless that he was shooting angry looks at Angela as she chimed in, "Totally! What's the deal with Zelda and her family? They behave like bloodsuckers, who are enjoying the good life while pulling off disrespectful acts. Don't they care about karma?"James's deep voice echoed from behind, "Karma, huh? Even someone like you, who plotted against your own family, hasn't faced any karma. Zelda and her family are successful in business and often give to charity. Why do you see them as bloodsuckers? What does that say about you?"Mary broke into a cold sweat. She didn't dare to look sideways. She sent a pleading gaze toward Angela, who was lying in the hospital bed.Angela was about to respond when James abruptly stood up and admitted, "I made a mistake. I thought bringing you here would prove the Zelda family's commitment and secure a peaceful retirement for you. "I didn't expect your strong bias. Once the hospital reports are ready, and the

Chapter 925 Pushing Your Luck

James knew why Mary had come to Fairport. He had sensed it on their way to the villa, but he chose to ignore it. Little did he expect Mary to view him as favoring Zelda's family. She thought that he had given them all his money.However, James had divided Gourmet Haven equally among his three children. He had shown no favoritism. He gazed at his daughter with a heavy heart. She'd been spoiled since she was little. A storm of feelings churned inside him.Mary could tell from James' expression that something was off. Yet, she remembered that no matter how much she messed up before, like when she purposefully hurt Rebecca, James never scolded her much. At most, he just uttered a few stern words.Even back when Mary made a fuss during the family property split years ago, James didn't kick her out of the Johnson residence. In her eyes, James seemed tough on the surface, but deep down, he had a soft heart.She straightened her shoulders and boldly declared, "Dad, spare me that expression

Chapter 926 Maintaining a Private Zoo

Mary couldn't bring herself to look up when James revealed all her wrongdoings. She felt a heavy guilt weighing on her.She realized she wasn't young anymore, and even her daughter, Serena, was old enough to be a mother. Those carefree days of asking her parents for money without a second thought were now just a distant memory.Mary was simply a good-for-nothing person.

Chapter 927 No Money

James had had enough of being stuck in the hospital ward. He was afraid he'd get really mad and find himself a patient, too. All he wanted was to head home and enjoy some peace."Sorry, no money," James straightforwardly told Angela. Then he looked at Mary and said, "Sure, parents should help their kids, but think about your age. You're old enough to be the one helping us now. I don't want your money, but at least don't come asking for money so boldly from me and your mom."Considering Mary's spending habits, James wondered who she would lean on once he and Angela were no longer there.A look of disappointment slowly spread across his face as he declared, "You won't be getting any money from me. I don't have any to spare. I did earn a bit from those short videos, but I'm sorry to say, your so-called bloodsucker has already donated it all to charity."Since handing over Gourmet Haven to the next generation, James had no source of income in his retirement. While he had some savings,

Chapter 928 Time for a Serious Talk

James looked dead serious as he questioned, "Do I seem like I'm lying?"His serious tone showed he wasn't kidding. Mary's heart fell. That money was supposed to be hers. However, Angela didn't seem bothered. With a life of luxury, money wasn't a big deal for her. Helping others was just something nice to do."Money comes and goes. You'll make more down the road. Look at Mae's situation. You told her to stand on her own feet, but she needs a bit of a push first. We have to support our kids, right? When your next ad or profit rolls in, toss a bit Mae's way," Angela advised.Mary's face brightened at Angela's words. Her distress melted away, and she shot a thankful smile at Angela. "Thanks, Mom."Mary leaned toward Angela and sought comfort like a child. Angela smiled. She found joy in being there for her daughter. However, her smile faded quickly."I've said it before. I don't have any money. I gave away all I had. Any future earnings will also go to charity. As for Mary," James sno

Chapter 929 A Meaningful Life

Angela couldn't stand Mary's endless complaints. She let out a sigh and promised, "I'll talk to your dad and sort things out. He won't ignore you and Serena if you're going through a rough patch. Believe me."Before Mary could get excited, Angela added, "But your dad does have a point. You and Serena are grown-ups, and it's time to handle things yourselves. If he's firm about not giving you money this time, there might not be much I can do."As time went by, Angela had nearly used up all her money to support Mary. While she still had some savings left, handing it all over to Mary didn't make practical sense.Even though James expressed himself strongly, Angela understood that his words carried wisdom. Both she and James had only a limited number of years left to live. Once they were gone, their wealth would be shared among their three children.However, if Mary kept relying on others for money, she could soon find herself in a tough situation. That was why Angela reminded Mary to b

Chapter 930 Avoid Another Mistake

Angela spent two days in the hospital before being discharged. Her hospitalization was a result of sudden dizziness from too much anger, but there was no serious illness. She could have been discharged the same day.The reason for delaying the discharge was that she wanted to see if Zelda was truly so heartless as to not even spare a moment to visit her. Unfortunately, it turned out to be true, and Angela felt disappointed and frustrated.On the other hand, Mary had practically lived in the hospital these days. Yet, she complained about how hard it was for her and Serena whenever she had time.Angela knew Mary was only after money. Mary would say the nicest things if Angela gave her money. Otherwise, Mary would continue to complain about her financial problems.Angela kept a record of all the money that she had given to Mary over the years. If she hadn't done that, she might have thought that Mary was being mistreated at home. It was sad at first to hear Mary talk about being poor,
