Chapter 541 Zachary Listens to Me

When it came to the Fulham family's matters, Joey often felt that some issues could be brought to light by tearing through just a thin layer of paper.Even as slow as she was, she knew what Vaughn's and the others' attitudes toward her signified. She just didn't want to acknowledge it."Sorry… I didn't mean it." Kenneth quickly apologized after realizing he had misspoken."It's fine." Joey shook her head.After Kenneth finished eating, Joey asked Stacy to make a bed for him, and he went to sleep.As Joey continued working, a call from an unknown number came in.She pressed the answer button, and before she could speak, an elderly woman's voice came through. "Ms. Linton, is Kenneth with you?"Joey's expression was indifferent as she asked, "Mrs. Yates Senior?""So, you still remember me." Eleanor snorted coldly. "Ms. Linton, I know you're a decent person, but decent people shouldn't be backstabbers, right?""What do you mean? Please clarify." Joey's tone didn't even waver."Th

Chapter 542 Hugging Again

Henry and Joey walked into the courtyard.Rose, drenched and soaked, saw Joey and pushed Monica off. She brushed her wet hair aside and started scrutinizing Joey.After a long while, she finally recognized the elite businesswoman in front of her.It had been half a year since they last met, and now Joey exuded an impressive air.It was no wonder Monica bullied her all the time and often deprived her of meals. It turned out that Joey had become an authoritative boss, and Monica had someone to back her up now!Joey only glanced at her before heading inside.Rose realized that she didn't dare to trouble Joey as she used to. She was even a bit afraid of her now."Rose, aren't you going to change your clothes? You're making a fool of yourself!" Monica reminded her."Mind your own business, you old hag!" Rose was furious. After all, Monica was the one who had caused her this embarrassment.Monica and Joey were quite something. It was frustrating, but Rose couldn't say a word.After

Chapter 543 The Bath Was in Vain

Rose was carrying a tray of food. Since Monica had her back to her, she tried to sneak in quietly.However, when she was caught by Joey, she stood there awkwardly.Monica noticed and turned to look."Didn't you say you'd rather starve to death than eat? What's this? Are you hungry now?" Monica immediately taunted.Zachary came downstairs just in time to hear Rose complain, "Zac, did you hear that? This old hag is trying to starve me to death!""Monica has been saying that for a month, but you're still strong and fit enough to fight her," Zachary replied coolly as he sat next to Harold to watch TV.Rose was furious. She sat down at the dining table, took a bite of food, and then looked at Joey.Joey felt awkward. This once proud old lady had become someone everyone disliked.She continued eating her meal gracefully and elegantly.As Rose kept stealing glances at her, she grew more annoyed."What did Charles teach her? How could she dye her hair like this?" Rose finally couldn'

Chapter 544 Shopping Like a Married Couple

After drying her hair, Joey noticed her undergarments laid out on the bed. She muttered, "Grandma could have just left them there."Still, she put them on, as sleeping without any underwear wasn't an option.She couldn't help but yawn after lying in bed comfortably. She was probably so exhausted from everything lately that she fell asleep quickly.It was only around 9:00 pm. Monica usually didn't go to bed until 10:30 pm.Zachary took a cold shower to calm himself before quietly approaching Monica's door.He saw that Joey was already asleep after gently opening the door. He was relieved and just stood at the door to watch her.After a while, Joey rolled over and kicked the blanket off in her sleep.The shirt she wore was a bit short, and her long legs could easily be seen. Zachary couldn't help but think his cold shower was wasted.He walked in, sat on the edge of the bed, and covered her legs with the blanket before placing his hands on them.Why did she work so hard? She was

Chapter 545 Lacking the Advantage

Joey walked slowly and spoke in a relaxed tone, "It hasn't been easy for Henry, either. He lost an eye for my sake. I'd feel bad if I don't treat him well."Joey was very considerate toward Henry. She rarely let him do much work, and his salary was almost like free money.Zachary looked at her. "Do you feel guilty?""Of course. Henry is a handsome young man. He will want to get married in the future, and losing an eye puts him at a disadvantage in finding a spouse."Joey was very concerned about Henry's lost eye. As long as she was around, she would protect him."Then just give him a raise. He's incredibly jealous of Shane's salary of two million a month."Zachary couldn't help but laugh as he added, "They work for us so diligently because they want more money. Over time, they've developed feelings for us as well.""How much do you think is appropriate?" Joey asked."When he was with me before, it was 50 thousand a month. He was always ready to risk his life for me," Zachary ex

Chapter 546 She Needs to be Taught A Lesson

Joey nodded. She planned to inform Melvin later to make sure he would take Kenneth around and ensure he didn't compromise.They wandered until it got dark, then had dinner before heading back to the Gray Estate.Upon arrival, they saw Monica and Rose quarreling again in the courtyard."Oh my, I told you to loosen the soil a bit, but it's still this heavily compacted! Did you not eat earlier? How can you plant anything with the soil this compact?" Monica angrily scolded.Rose clutched her back and retorted, "You old hag, be thankful I'm even helping you. We have plenty to eat and drink, so why bother with farming? It's such a nuisance!""You've got nothing better to do than pick fights, so you should be farming! You need to experience some hardship, you useless old thing!" Monica yelled.Zachary listened and peered into the courtyard. "They argue every day. They're full of energy."Joey rubbed her temples. "They're two old children."Speaking of this, Zachary suddenly turned to

Chapter 547 Rose's Attempt to Please

Seeing this message, Joey couldn't help but inquire further.Joey: "Flaunting wealth?"Selena: "Yes. Elise said that the Fulham family's children get an annual allowance of five million until they start their businesses. But Elise seems to spend more than eight million each month."Oh, and in that fashion design game you were involved in, she spent nearly ten million in just one month."Thinking of what Zachary had said, Joey slowly typed, "Find out more details from Elise."After Selena agreed, Joey discussed this unusual situation with Zachary."Shane, check Angel's financial records.""Okay."While Shane made a call, Joey couldn't help but ask Zachary, "Do you think this could be a breakthrough?""It might be. Sometimes, gossip can be very useful," Zachary said with a smile."Back in the day, gossip was called intelligence gathering," Joey noted. Sometimes, listening to gossip was more effective than conducting investigations.Zachary nodded in agreement as the living roo

Chapter 548 Drowning in Spit

"No need, I can handle it myself." Joey didn't want her to interfere in her affairs.Rose stood by the door and stared at her with piercing eyes. "Are you still holding a grudge against me for what happened before? Do you think I'm a malicious old woman?"Joey fell silent.Rose's eyes turned red, and she spoke with a hint of self-pity, "I know I'm not worthy of you now, nor is Zac. As for the past, I don't even know why I acted the way I did…""Rose, in the past, you simply looked down on me and my grandmother. There's no need for explanations."Now, things are only different because I've succeeded in my work. In your mind, there's no longer that obedient granddaughter-in-law, only the glamorous me now," Joey said.She was very clear about Rose's current mindset.Rose had never treated the weak version of Joey kindly before. Now, as Rose tried to curry favor with the powerful version of her, Joey wondered if she should accept it.There was no need to.Rose looked at Joey and c

Chapter 549 Just a Glance

The reason why Joey worked so hard was so that she and Monica would never be looked down upon again."Thank you, Grandma." Joey held the milk and thanked Monica once again for her understanding.She wasn't like Eleanor, who forced Kenneth to marry someone who had wronged him for the sake of family harmony."Get some rest. Treat this as a vacation while you're here," Monica advised.Joey nodded again."How did Zac treat you today when you were out?" Monica couldn't help but ask."It was fine. Why?" Joey asked in a serious tone.Monica smiled and said, "Just curious. You two should get along well. I'll go back to my room now."After she left, Joey slowly drank the milk. Her gaze was distant, as if she were lost in thought.…Time passed slowly, and on the third day, Joey received a call from Hanson."Can you come back to Imperia?" Hanson's voice was urgent."What's the matter?" Joey asked coolly.Hanson was silent for a moment before saying, "Joey, there are some things we h

Chapter 550 A Nest of Vipers

Upon hearing Harold's words, Joey couldn't help but think that sometimes, after going through so much, people would end up right back where they started."Thank you, Grandpa," Joey responded.Harold clapped and said loudly, "It's no big deal. You're only going back to hear an explanation."If they didn't abandon you, everything would be fine. If they did, we'd ignore them. They can't just take you back without any cost now that you're famous!""Exactly! They couldn't even protect a child!" Rose echoed. She wasn't sure if she was saying the right thing or if Joey would accept it, but it was all she could say.After composing herself, Joey set off for Imperia with Monica and Zachary.While Zachary had planned to stay hidden a bit longer, Joey's matter was more important.They arrived in Imperia and saw Hanson at the airport to pick them up.Joey appeared distant, but Selena hurriedly stepped forward to hold her hand. Monica also held Joey's hand and stayed close to her.Zachary
