Chapter 35
“Jensen, why are you begging this jinx?” Carol stepped forward and grabbed Jensen’s arm. She had never seen her son so humble in front of Gilda.
Carol thought, ‘It has always been us who make the requirements arrogantly and Gilda just obeys humbly. Why did the situation change completely now?‘
Carol walked toward Gilda and said arrogantly, “We slandered you, so what? You don’t have any reputation. You didn’t dare to say anything when we scolded you at home before!”
Carol shouted, but then she saw Jensen’s face gradually darkened. Only then did she realize that she had exposed her attitude toward Gilda over the past three years.
Patrick couldn’t stand it anymore. He squinted at Gilda and said, “These are your mother–in–law and sister–in–law whom you have served wholeheartedly for three years? Look what kind of people you’ve given your heart and soul to!”
Thinking of Gilda’s background, Patrick calmed down a little and said, “It’s up to you. But I won’t allow you to ruin the Lynch family’s reputation!”
Gilda comforted Patrick, “Don’t worry, Patrick.”
Then Gilda smiled coldly at Carol and said, “If I’m right, you will definitely say that it’s fine that your daughter smashed my store. You can compensate me. Am I right?”
That was exactly what Carol was thinking, so she stopped holding herself back. “Isn’t that true? How much can your store be worth? Can’t our Harrington family afford it?”
“Are you sure you can pay 60 million dollars easily?” Gilda slowly said the amount.
Hearing the amount of compensation, Carol almost fell to the ground in panic. “What did you say?! How can a small multi–brand boutique be worth 60 million dollars? How dare you fool me?!”
Gilda glanced at Carol coldly and said, “If you don’t believe me, I have the loss assessment details. You will be convinced by then.”
“You jinx, I’ll tear you into pieces! How dare you!” Carol’s voice suddenly became sharp again. She wanted to rush forward and attack Gilda, but Jensen stopped her.
Jensen frowned and said to stop Carol with a sullen face, “Shut up!”
The quarrel between them had already attracted the attention of most celebrities in Allath, and everyone understood it after hearing it carefully.
A noble daughter–in–law of a wealthy family was treated so badly at home. They all looked at Carol with
resentment.
“The Harrington family seems to be wealthy and noble, but the mother–in–law and sister–in–law are so vulgar.”
“She scolds and bites her daughter–in–law when she’s angry. Her daughter–in–law is so pathetic.”

“See? Even at this moment, Mr. Harrington is still protecting his mother and sister. We can imagine how desperate Ms. Lynch was before they got divorced.”
“If I were Ms. Lynch and met such a suffocating family and man, I would also cheat on him!”
