Rose was most afraid of how intelligent her daughter was. She could only keep her expression neutral and say calmly, “We’re just cleaning. I don’t like the layout, so I want to mix things up. The house has to be aired after renovation, which will take a few months at the very least. Let’s just stay here for now.”
Linda immediately furrowed her brows tightly. “The house is completely new, and you used to like the design. Why are you changing things?”
She stared at Rose and still felt that something wasn’t right.
But Rose said in a dazed manner, “It’s all because of your dad’s assistant! The contractor he found tricked us and used cheap materials. It hasn’t been long, but the walls at home have started to crack.”
Linda was slightly suspicious and still felt that it was strange.
But she couldn’t put her finger on it. It was mainly because she couldn’t think of why they had to stay here.
She paused before she said, “But even if we have to stay elsewhere, we can go to a better place! How are we going to stay in such a small place?”
Rose took a breath in. She wanted to, but they didn’t have the money! That wench Elisa had tricked them out of everything.
But Rose didn’t dare say such things to her daughter.
Linda opened her mouth and clearly wanted to say something else, but she was interrupted by her cell phone ringing.
Upon seeing that it was the anonymous call from before, she was suddenly excited. “That person is calling me. She must have made her move against Elisa!”
Rose breathed a sigh of relief. She was thankful that the call distracted Linda.
