When news of the Weaver family’s troubles spread, Charlie was busy in the kitchen, preparing lunch for his wife and inws. This was in stark contrast to the chaos that had recently engulfed Jordan and Jeffrey, whose lives Charlie had helped turn upside down while aiding Liam’s rise.


    At the dining table, Jacob and ine were deep in conversation about the Weavers. Gossip was ine’s favorite pastime, and she would revel in the misfortunes of others for days on end.


    As ine derided Jordan and Jeffrey for their plight, ire interjected, “Mom, it’s not kind to mock others like that.”


    ine scoffed. “I might overlook others, but I won’t pass up a chance to take a jab at the Weaver family!”


    Then, with a conspiratorial tone, she added, “Oh, and did you hear that Wendy was supposedly seen with Jeffrey a few days ago?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    ire’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What? No way! Isn’t Jeffrey in his thirties? He’s at least a decade older than Wendy! I can’t imagine she would be interested in him.”


    ine chuckled. “Haha, do you really think Wendy is some kind of saint? Let me tell you, I heard she was Keh’s lover for a while! You know Keh, right? Keh Wilson, the chairman of Modestway Group in Eastcliff? Apparently, he’s the one who passed her on to Jeffrey!”


    This revtion left Jacob stunned. “What? You mean Keh from Eastcliff? Wendy was his lover? That can’t be true! Keh is older than Chris!”


    ine replied, “Your mom tried to win Keh’s favor to secure an investment for thepany, so she told Wendy to get close to him. And guess what? Keh kept his word and invested 10 million into thepany. Everyone knows it’s true.”


    ire gasped, “Oh my goodness… How could Grandma do that?! How could she ask Wendy to be with Keh just for money? How could my uncle and aunt go along with such a n?”


    ine sneered, “Them? I bet they were thrilled about it!”


    She continued mockingly, “Well, the olddy had high hopes, but it’s too bad Keh only invested ten million and nothing more.”


    ire pointed out, “The Wilson Group’s debts are around thirty million. That ten million is just a drop in the bucket. I can only imagine how tough things must be for Grandma and the rest now.”


    “She deserves it!” ine spat. “Your grandma has bullied us for years! I hope they go bankrupt soon, and I can’t wait to see her end up on the street! Only then will she realize all the mistakes she’s made! Honestly, it gives me a sense of relief just thinking about it!”


    Jacob chimed in, “That’s enough. Mom might have made mistakes, but you can’t wish that on her! If they really do go bankrupt and lose their home, do you think we can just turn our backs when shees to us?”<fn42c0> Th?s chapter is updated by find·novel</fn42c0>


    ine shot back angrily, “Are you serious? I don’t care! If she ends up on the street, so be it! I wouldn’t even care if she starves! Have you forgotten how she treated us when she kicked us out of her family? I will never forgive her!”


    Jacob sighed, choosing not to respond further. While he was frustrated with his mother, his anger didn’t match ine’s intensity.


    With a triumphant smile, ine dered, “I can’t wait to see the downfall of the Wilson family. When they’re finished, we’ll be moving into the magnificent Thompson First vi, and it will feel like heavenpared to them! Until then, I’ll make sure they know that fortune only knocks once!”


    Turning to Charlie, she urged, “Charlie, have you been in touch with Mr. Zeke White? Ask him to push the contractor to speed up their renovation. I want to move in next month!”
