Penelope continued, “You can stop making excuses. I’m not from the city, and I can’t stomach food from outside. For goodness sake, I’m your elder, Is it such a big deal to ask you to cook me some breakfast? If you refuse, I’ll go talk to your mother–in–law about this!” 

She then started groaning, saying that she was so upset that she had a headache. Then, she claimed that she was dying of hunger. The others heard this and immediately joined in the chorus, criticizing Mindy. 

Mindy looked around at the group and saw through their disgusting facade. They probably always banded together to bully others by taking advantage of their numbers. 

“Fine, you w

you want a home cooked breakfast? I’ll ask Lionel to make it for you. Just wait a little while,” Mindy 

“No, can’t you understand me? I asked you to make it, not Lionel! Men are supposed to earn money, and women should be in the kitchen. That’s just how it is!”

Penelope was at a loss for words. 

That was true. If she had that much money, she wouldn’t be slaving away in the kitchen to serve her husband. 

Miranda returned with breakfast and immediately sensed something was off with the atmosphere at home. Before she could figure out what had happened, she heard a loud crash coming from the backyard. It was where Lionel kept his beloved potted plants. 

Miranda’s eyes twitched as a bad feeling welled up within her. 

Sure enough, Lionel’s orchid had been smashed to pieces when she went to check. The other potted plants had also suffered varying degrees of damage. 

Lionel trembled all over, feeling as if his heart was stabbed by a knife. His precious orchid…

He had woken up early and went to bed late in order to care for this specific shoot. He tended to it carefully and wrote pages of notes regarding his observations. 

Now that he had finally got the orchid to bloom, the plant was destroyed by these unruly kids! 

The kids were completely oblivious to the gravity of their actions. They even laughed and asked Lionel,”
