Lorelei was her daughter. Winnie had brought up Lorelei’s return as an attempt to seek vengeance against the shameless couple, Hamish and Yara.
Jacinta was pleased. She shared Winnie’s sentiment for wanting the shameless couple to suffer eternal d*mnation in hell as well.
Hence, she started to put on a show to go along with Winnie’s plan.
“Are you really my daughter, Lorelei? Are you really back? I am your mother! You have died in vain, and I regret never having the chance to talk to you properly. Lorelei dear, please look at me and talk to me!”
Her wails of despair and forlorn pleas were so convincing that the housekeepers thought that Winnie was truly possessed by the spirit of the dead Lorelei.
Jacinta’s reaction even had Winnie stumped for a few seconds.
After all, Winnie had not planned to play tricks in front of the housekeepers. However, she decided to improvise when she heard the housekeepers saying that Yara was coming back that night.
She did not even have the time to run her plan by Jacinta before deciding to do so. Hence, she was surprised that her granny would be able to react on such short notice.
The housekeepers, especially Nancy, who had committed the transgressions against Lorelei, were shocked senseless as their faces turned pale.
“T-The phone! I-I need to call M-Mrs. Garland!” Nancy stammered as she scurried off.
Winnie chuckled when she heard Nancy.
Go on. Hurry up and call Yara.
Her plan would not be a success if Yara were not around.
Winnie wished that Yara could come back right this instant.
After going back to the room, Winnie hurriedly took out a bag of fine powder from her luggage and smeared it on her hand.
“What is this? What are you planning to do when Hamish and Yara come back later?” Jacinta asked curiously.
Winnie looked at her phone for the time and said, “We have at least half an hour more till they reach home. There is still time. I’m going to give them a good scare.”
The show that they put on previously in front of the housekeepers was only an entrée to prepare them for the main course that would soon ensue. Granny, just you wait. I’m going to put this shameless couple through the suffering that my mother went through back then!
After twenty minutes, Hamish brought Yara home.
Winnie could hear them arguing even from inside her room.
This time, they were no longer arguing about Kylie being imprisoned but whether to let Winnie stay in the house.
Yara was hurling invectives left, right, and center. Not only was she berating Hamish, but she was also attempting to get her point across to Jacinta and Winnie.
“Do you think our family has not suffered enough? Because of that dumbass, my precious Kylie is behind bars right now! Mind you, I did try begging her, but it was useless! Now you’ve asked her to stay here instead. Are you out of your mind? One dumbass is enough. Now you’re getting an old, stingy woman here too? Are you trying to aggravate me? Hamish Garland, you’d better chase them out of my house right now!”
Hamish felt his head pounding as Yara screamed at him.
