Yolanda exchanged glances with her and patted her hand, then turned back to Elena and said, “Sister-in-law, my mother was greatly impacted by the news of my brother hence she said those stuff.”
“That really a reckless mouth, saying whatever that goes to her head,” Elena chuckled.
Fortunately, Yolanda pulled her back in time and shook her head at her.
Elena pretended not to see the interaction between the two, “Then, can I go to see Grandpa George?”
“Grandpa George is still resting. Of course, you can go to see, we will certainly not stop you!” Yolanda said immediately, and she did not forget to reach over and held her.
Elena inadvertently dodged and glanced at Jacqueline. “Instead of caring for me, it is better to care for your mother. To prevent her angry confused self from speaking gibberish from in front of Grandpa George.”
“Yes.” Yolanda retracted her hand.
Elena smiled, “Then, I go to see Grandpa George first, if you worry that I’ll do anything to Grandpa George, or say something that makes him feel uncomfortable, you can follow.”
Jacqueline was about to say would follow but after she said so, she also stopped in her footsteps.
Yolanda smiled and pulled Jacqueline’s hand, “No, it’s okay. Sister-in-law, you go ahead. Besides, there are no uncomfortable words, as long as it does not agitate Grandpa George.”
“Of course, I still understand this matter.”
Elena ignored the two and returned to the ward with Jacob.
Jacqueline looked at her in a distance, her face crumpled into a stale look as she threw away Yolanda’s hand, “What are you thinking of!”
“Don’t worry about it, I have my own plans!” Yolanda said impatiently.
Jacqueline wasn’t pleased, “What are you going to do, you can’t gain anything from Elena, you still help outsiders, you...”
“Mom! Don’t you understand! If something really happened to my brother, Elena and the child in her stomach all own a share to the Brown family!”
“That’s why I wanted to say, that child in her stomach is an illegitimate child! It’s not from the Brown family!”
Yolanda was really speechless of her words, “Do you think anyone would believe what you’d said? Even if they initially believe but when the child is born and a DNA test is performed, can you deny it!?”
Jacqueline was awakened by the reminder.
Yolanda looked at her eyes and guessed her intention, she grabbed her hand and said, “Mom, don’t do anything now!”
“Don’t do anything?” Jacqueline broods, “If we stay still when that child is born, what would be left for us!?”
“Mom!”
Yolanda was momentarily annoyed by her cheapskates. “I’m saying it outright, Elena is just a woman, a pregnant woman apart from it, she is nothing to us, nor does she have the position to compete with us!”
“We have to work to drive her out of the Brown’s Villa!”
“Listen to me!”
Yolanda rolled her eyes, and Jacqueline was stopped by her.
