Hilda was very anxious recently because of the appearance of Poppy Green, who was a mortal malady for Hilda. Hilda would even be scared to wake up if she could not get rid of the trouble. So she couldn’t bear it and went back to her parental home for help.
As son as the car drove onto the road, Hilda answered a phone, “What’s going on with Jean Barnes at the police station?”
“Jean has not been free from the accusation, since Daniel’s body have been found and exhumed. After the forensic autopsy, the forensic expert identified the cause of his death, which coincided with the statement of the tainted witness that he died of infection caused by whipping. She is now involved in a murder case and will have to spend the rest of her life in prison.” Although the news was still blocked at present, some special group of people always found their ways to get the news.
Hilda sneered, “I see.”
It was out of her expectation that Jean was beaten by Poppy in just one round. She had thought Jean was capable.
But it also showed that Poppy, the bitch was kind of competent.
“Here we are, Madam.”
The car had arrived at Family Sanches unconsciously.
Hilda tidied up her mood and told the driver, “Wait for me outside!”
“Yes, Madam.”
The towering building made one feel like he was burdened a lot. Hilda, who rarely came back, would not want to come here if she had not had to ask her father for help.
When Hilda walked into the living room, her father was making tea. The scent of tea spread from his fingertips, which made the atmosphere more quite. But Jacob Sanches looked frightening, even the fragrance of tea could not reduce his foul atmosphere.
“Father!”
Hilda went over and sat down.
Jacob did not raise his head and said in a flat tone, “What are you doing to come back?”
Hilda was a little embarrassed, “ Father, This is my home. Do I have to have a reason to come back?”
“Huh!”
Jacob hummed coldly and picked up the teacup for a cup, “A daughter married is like water split. Let alone Roche was in a mess because of your poor tricks!”
Although he was not involved now, it did not mean that he didn’t know about it.
Roche had been in a lot of trouble recently. Jacob wanted to know Bryant Green solved the problem that Dakings Group had blocked out many Roche’s project.
“I… ”
“I didn’t expect it.”
Hilda didn’t expect Kenny to be so ruthless, and she had been distressed because of it for a long time.
“It doesn’t matter that you discredited Roche, but do not get our Family Sanches involved.” After drinking up a cup of tea, Jacob put down the cup. From the beginning to the present, he had not even looked at Hilda, which showed that he did not like Hilda
“I see.” Hilda felt aggrieved. She had mean to let Ethel have access to Kenny, but the plan could not keep up with changes. She didn’t expect will be driven out.
She raised her head and gave a look at Jacob, who wore a cold expression without saying a word, so she did not dare to say anything.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps upstairs. Then Mark walked down from upstairs, whose face was still bruised and swollen, which looked like a palette. Hilda noticed it and asked, “Mark, what’s wrong with your face?”
Mark felt embarrassed, and he dared not say a word when he saw his grandfather out of the corner of his eyes.
His presence was like a fuse, which made the atmosphere of the living room tenser immediately.
Jacob put down the teacup violently with a bang. Then the tea splashed out and got his fingers wet. His face and eyes showed his great anger, then he reprimanded Mark, “You are useless, just like your father that you should flirt women and were sent to the police station.”
Mark hardly dared to breathe. Then Hilda asked, “Mark, how did it happen?”
“I didn’t know the woman has boyfriend, otherwise I wouldn’t even touch her.”
“How shamelessly you say it out!”
