"That's not good!" Elaine said stubbornly, "Those green hats are my ultimate weapons against the Wilson family. I want them to remember every single day that Hannah was pregnant with an illegitimate child!"
Suddenly, Elaine thought of something. She laughed and said, "Hey, I'll hang these lanterns and green hats next to each other in a while. When the lanterns are switched on, they will be in contrast with the green hats. It's absolutely striking! This will certainly drive the Wilson family mad!"
Claire advised her, "Mum, it's the New Year. Let us forgive others!"
Elaine quipped, "Don't you advise me. It’s no use advising me. Don't you know that my leg was broken b y your grandma? And my two lost teeth were also because of her?! I'll never forgive her for this matter!" 9
Seeing her mom's determined face, Claire felt helpless.
It was impossible to change mom's decision.
Having said her piece, Elaine carried a bunch of red lanterns by herself and walked toward the elevator as she said, "I'll hang the lanterns and the green hats together!” 1
After half an hour.
The Wilson family, under the organization of Lady
Wilson, was also lighting up their lights, and it was very lively.
The Wilson family was not what it used to be after having received Donald’s investment. After settling all their debts, the Wilson Group had also taken on some projects, which had helped them turn their losses into profits. 6
Lady Wilson had also taken back the villas, antiques, and calligraphies that had been seized by the bank. 3
Jacob and Lady Wilson loathed her extremely, but because of Donald, they could not chase her away. Hence, they regarded her as a thorn in the eye. 6
Harold and Wendy also felt that their mum’s incident o f being pregnant with an illegitimate child and contracting sexually transmitted disease was too embarrassing. So, they ignored her every day. 6
Being rejected by the whole family hurt Hannah, especially after looking at the four members of the Wilson family smiling every day while she herself had to do household chores, just like an unpaid housemaid. This made her heart hurt even more. 5
At this moment, seeing them preparing the various New Year decorations, Hannah walked up, licked her lips, and said flatteringly, "Mum, let me help you! Have you forgotten, when we were still living in the villa, whenever it was New Year’s, I was the one who hung u p all the decorations?" 2
Lady Wilson stared at her in contempt and shouted," What are you doing here? Quickly wipe the windows! I'm telling you, there are three more days to the New Year after today. All the windows in the villa must be cleaned thoroughly by you!"
