In order to survive and avoid physical harm or hunger, Hannah found herself forced to makepromises and yield to the circumstances around her.
Unbeknownst to the Wilson family, Hannah was enduring significant suffering and humiliation. They mistakenly believed she was living the high life in a five-star hotel, pampered by a lover who was two decades younger than her.
As Lady Wilson hurled insults and curses at Hannah in front of Christopher and Hannah’s children, they remained silent, absorbing the verbal barrage. Though they didn’t express their anger outwardly, a deep sense of frustration and dissatisfaction simmered within them.
The most distressed among them was Christopher. He felt the weight of losing not just his family’s wealth but also his wife. His mind was gued with thoughts of whether Hannah was enjoying herself with various young men, now that she had ess to so much money. The idea that she might be unfaithful tormented him.
Harold and Wendy’s animosity toward Hannah stemmed from a simple yet powerful motive: money.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
The Wilson family found themselves in a dire financial situation, struggling to make ends meet. It was a suffocating reality for two second-generation wealthy kids, now forced to live in such desperation.
“Damn Hannah, that b*tch! If I ever find her, I swear I’ll break her legs to let out the anger and hatred building up inside me! Otherwise, I’ll have no way to vent!”
With gritted teeth, Christopher unleashed his frustration before pulling out his cell phone. “I’m going to arrange for a truck to take our furniture to the shop tomorrow. I’ll get an estimate, and if the price is right, we’ll sell it there.”
Lady Wilson surveyed the furniture in their home, her expression filled with dismay. When Lord Wilson was alive, the family had enjoyed prosperity, and the furniture crafted from fine Lexington wood held both mary and sentimental value.
Yet, Lady Wilson understood that despite her reluctance to part with the furniture, the bank would eventually im it if they didn’t act soon.
She turned to Christopher and exined, “If we had more time to sell the furniture slowly, we could get around 1.6 to 1.7 million dors for it. But given our urgency, the buyer will likely try to drive the price down. If they offer us one million three hundred thousand dors, I think we should agree to sell.”<fn4dd2> Discover more novels at fι?dnοvel</fn4dd2>
“Alright,” Christopher replied. “One point three million is a reasonable amount. At the very least, it will help us get back on our feet.”

Meanwhile, Jacob lounged on the sofa, scrolling through pictures on his cell phone in search of furniture. He wanted to pinpoint the styles and pieces that caught his interest.
ine, with her own motives, chimed in from the sidelines, “Jacob, don’t go overboard when buying furniture. We should save some of that money for our retirement instead.”
Jacob scoffed dismissively. “My son-inw said this two million dors is meant for buying furniture and appliances!”
ine, growing anxious, retorted, “If you spend all of it on furniture, how will we manage to live in the future?”
Jacob, irritated, shot back, “Why are you shouting? Charlie gave me this money specifically for furniture and appliances for the vi. Even if I spend 1.5 million, I’ll return the remaining five hundred thousand to Charlie. I won’t give you a cent, so you really don’t need to worry.”
“You…” ine bit her lip in frustration.
Currently, Jacob held the two million dors, while ine had nothing, leaving her powerless until she could unlock his payment verification password.
As Jacob continued browsing, he stumbled upon a set of traditional all-wood furniture and sighed, “If only we could get a set like this, or even take the Lexington sofa set from the Wilson family for our vi—it would be perfect!”
