Chapter 790 Superior Gesture
Angela was a smart girl. Many times, she could notice something was wrong even at a glance.
Martha was most afraid that her daughter was so clever that she was nearly immune to lies. She could only pretend to be calm and said, “Fixing up is always needed. I don‘t like the layout of our old house. We need to change the layout again. After finishing the decoration, the house needs some time for ventilation. It will take at least a few months. So, we must live here for a while.”
Angela frowned as she heard that. “Our house was just finished not long ago. And you are totally satisfied with your own design style. Why do you want to fix it again?”
She stared at Martha and always felt that she was telling a lie.
Martha replied calmly, “It‘s because of your father‘s assistant. The decoration team we found was cheating us, using all those poor materials. Although we‘ve just finished the decoration not long ago, the walls were already cracking.”
Angela was still suspicious of her words.
But now she couldn‘t find any loopholes. She just couldn‘t figure out why they had to stay in such a place for now.
After a pause, she resumed, “Even if we have to live in another house, we can live in a nicer place. How can we live in such a small house then?”
Martha took a deep breath. It‘s not what I want. I have no choice. But we have no money! Gloria has cheated us out of all of our money! That tramp!
Martha did not dare to tell her daughter all this.
Angela opened her mouth as if she still wanted to add something, but suddenly the phone rang, interrupting her thoughts.
Seeing that it was still the call with virtual numbers again, she was quite excited. “That person called me back. She must have done something to Gloria.”
Martha sighed with relief. Fortunately, the call diverted Angela‘s attention.
