“Enough!” Lady Wilson shouted furiously, her eyes burning into ine. With a bitter curse, she spat, “You B*tch! So what if the Wilson family is struggling right now? We will rise again, and when that dayes, I won’t ever ept you back into the Wilson family, even if you beg!”


    Jacob quickly turned to ine, urging her, “ine! How could you talk to Mom like that? You need to apologize!”


    ine frowned and met Jacob’s gaze with a chilling stare. “Have you forgotten that this woman kicked you out of the Wilson family? Are you really defending her again? You may see her as your mother, but has she ever treated you like her own son?”<fndd70> Chapters first released on </fndd70>


    After her words hung in the air, ine pointed at Lady Wilson and stated coldly, “Olddy, it’s time you face reality. Are you still pretending to be in a position of power? Let me make this clear: I will never return to the Wilson family, even if you kneel and plead. Right now, the Wilson family holds no value, especially when you’re selling off your own furniture just to survive. Who would want toe back to a family like that?”


    Lady Wilson, livid, raised her finger at ine and dered, “ine, I’ve lived many years, but you are the first person to speak to me like this. Remember your words today! One day, I will ensure you apologize to me, even if it means breaking your legs!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    ine let out augh, “Oh, really? With what power? You’re just a frail old woman on the brink of the grave, and you think you can break my legs? Go ahead, they’re right here. If you have the guts, give it your best shot!”


    As she spoke, ine stretched her legs out in front of Lady Wilson, sneering in disdain.


    Lady Wilson seethed with rage, tempted to act violently against ine. How dare she be so brazen in front of her? But the presence of Charlie held her back.


    She vividly recalled how Charlie had single-handedly taken down a group of bodyguards, leaving her shaken with fear. Meanwhile, Harold, once so full of himself, now cowered in silence, unable to defend his grandmother against ine’s insults, hiding in the background with a crestfallen expression.


    Just then, Christopher returned to the furniture shop, his face twisted with frustration, apanied by the shop owner.


    “Mom, let’s leave! The price he’s offering is far too low!” Christopher eximed.


    The boss quickly responded, “Brother, the 1.1 million dors I’m offering is quite generous. Your Hainan Lexington furniture set is made of average materials and shows significant wear. I assure you, you won’t find a better offer elsewhere.”


    Lady Wilson’s temper red as she shouted, “What do you mean it’s only worth 1.1 million? This furniture set is excellent! Are you trying to cheat us?”


    The boss replied, exasperated, “I’m offering a fair price. If you doubt me, feel free to ask around.”


    Lady Wilson scoffed, “Let’s go! We’ll get another quote! I refuse to believe it’s worth so little!”


    Jacob interjected, “Mom, how about I buy the sofa set for 1.2 million? I genuinely want it; it holds a lot of memories from Dad.”


    “Dream on!” Lady Wilson retorted through gritted teeth. “I would rather destroy it than sell it to you!”


    With that, she signaled Christopher, and they made their way out of the shop.


    Jacob watched them leave, shaking his head in disbelief. “I never thought the Wilson family would fall so low. It’s heartbreaking to see them selling furniture just to get by. That sofa set was Dad’s prized possession!”


    ire, understanding her father’s emotional attachment, stepped forward to console him. “It’s okay, Dad. Grandma will never agree to sell it to you. Let’s just look for other furniture.”


    “Yes,” Jacob sighed, turning to the salesman. “Let’s see what else you have. The Hainan Lexington set is too pricey, and I’ll have to wait too long for the Burmese Lexington wood option.”
