Elaine was cooking on the first floor when she heard Lady Wilson loudly scolding someone on the street early in the morning. Curiosity piqued, she quickly made her way out on her crutches to see what was happening.
At that moment, Charlie and Claire happened to be coming downstairs and spotted Elaine struggling with her crutches.
Elaine, filled with excitement, asked, “Hey, did you guys hear that old woman cursing at the street?”
Charlie and Claire nodded in response, with Claire adding a hint of embarrassment, “Grandma doesn’t know what’s wrong. She’s on the second-floor terrace cursing this early in the morning.”
Upon hearing this, Elaine exclaimed, “Claire, hurry! Help me get upstairs!” Newest update provided by fіndnovel.net
Claire sighed, “Mom, what’s there to see…”
Elaine, leaning on her crutch with her right arm and giving her sitting leg a slap with her left, urged, “What could be more entertaining than this? Hurry and help me, or you’ll miss the show!”
Seeing Elaine’s determination, Charlie stepped in first, saying, “Honey, let me help Mom.”
Claire agreed, “Alright, I’ll go press the elevator.”
The two of them assisted Elaine all the way to the third floor. Once they reached the terrace, Elaine looked down and spotted old Mrs. Wilson sitting on her own second-floor terrace, continuing her tirade.
While inside the house, they could only hear Lady Wilson’s noise without understanding her words, but now everything became clear.
Lady Wilson was still at it, shouting, “You, Hannah, are a thief! How dare you steal my hard-earned money! Where’s your conscience? I curse you to get hit by a car!”
Elaine couldn’t help but laugh and shouted back, “Hey, old woman, what’s going on? Isn’t your eldest daughter-in-law the most devoted to you? Why is she stealing your money on New Year’s Eve?”
When Lady Wilson heard Elaine’s voice, she looked up, her face contorted with anger. “Elaine, this is none of your business! You shrew! Don’t you dare come here with your sarcasm!”
Elaine retorted, “You’re seventy years old, cursing on your terrace in the morning, and you dare call me a shrew? Talk about having thick skin!”
Lady Wilson shot back angrily, “You’re the real shrew, Elaine! Just because you’re living in Thompson First now doesn’t mean you can pretend to be a good person!”
Elaine smiled, unfazed. “Oh, dear lady, you mentioned I’m a resident of Thompson First. Isn’t it expected that we maintain a certain quality? Unlike you, who lives here but still resorts to stealing from others. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
She continued cheerfully, “By the way! Did your family enjoy the leeks you stole from us last time?”
“You… you…” Lady Wilson stammered in rage, her teeth gritted. “Elaine! I haven’t forgotten about the daffodil incident! Don’t you dare bring that up!”
Elaine laughed, “You stole our leeks, so why can’t I mention it? I heard that it was those leeks that made your eldest daughter-in-law realize she was pregnant! So really, you should be thanking our leeks! Without them, your son wouldn’t be on the path to fatherhood!”
Recalling the humiliation from the daffodil incident and the subsequent embarrassment only deepened Lady Wilson’s anger. Each memory felt like a knife twisting in her heart.
Just as she was about to unleash her anger on Elaine but didn’t know how to start, a police car rushed by and stopped downstairs.
Several police officers emerged from the vehicle, and Wendy quickly opened the gate. One of the officers asked, “Did your family call the police?”
Wendy replied in a hurry, “Yes, yes! It was my grandmother who told me to call…”
At that moment, Lady Wilson sprang up and leaned over the terrace railing, crying out, “Officer! You must help us! Our house has been burglarized! I can’t live without my hard-earned money!”
