Lady Wilson let out a cold snort before dering, “If I don’t repay the bank, I’ll be taken away and locked up in prison! Don’t forget, I’m the corporate legal representative for Wilson Group! I’m the one who will be ountable for thepany’s debts!”


    Christopher quickly interjected, “At the very least, you should keep one or two hundred thousand dors for the family so we can manage for a little while! I can’t even afford a pack of cigarettes that costs fifty dors right now!”


    “You still want to smoke?” Lady Wilson retorted sharply. “It would be a blessing if you have food on the table, and you’re thinking about cigarettes?”


    Suppressing his anger, Christopher sighed and replied, “Mom, I’m old enough to handle it. But Harold and Wendy are still young! They haven’t faced much hardship, so we can’t let them suffer now!”


    Lady Wilson snorted again, “I don’t care! We can just cut back on food and clothing to get through this tough time!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Harold and Wendy exchanged frustrated nces upon hearing Lady Wilson’s remarks.


    Having been spoiled throughout their upbringing, neither was ustomed to hardship or a miserable lifestyle. Ever since Hannah had run away with their family’s money, life had be unbearably tough for them.


    Now that Lady Wilson had some money in hand, her unwillingness to use it to support the family was shocking. Instead, she suggested shing their food and clothing budgets further. Was she truly trying to push them to their limits?


    “Grandma, it’s easy for you to say that because you’re older and don’t require as much food. But how can my sister and I cope? I’ve already lost several kilograms from eating less these past few days!” Harold eximed.


    “Yes, Grandma!” Wendy chimed in. “The cosmetics I used to buy cost tens of thousands of dors, and now I’m down to using L’Oreal, the most basic brand. I can’t even afford more cosmetics since my L’Oreal is running low. Do you really expect me to resort to using Dabao SOD Honey that costs just a few dors?”<fn3f9d> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? find~novel</fn3f9d>


    After finishing herint, Wendy insisted, “Grandma, I don’t care. You need to give me at least twenty thousand dors today to buy a set of La Mer for my face. Otherwise, I’ll really ruin myplexion!”


    Lady Wilson scoffed, “You’re in such dire straits, and you’re still dreaming of La Mer? Why can’t you just use Dabao SOD Honey? You’re so useless; you couldn’t even hold on to Keh Wilson! If you had truly grasped him, we wouldn’t be in this situation!”


    Wendy shot back, “What’s that got to do with me? Charlie made Keh impotent! I was doing my best to please him before that happened! Remember, he even gave me five million dors and ten million to the Wilson family!”


    “So what?” Lady Wilson replied icily. “He left anyway, didn’t he? If you were truly capable, you would’ve made him stay, even after losing his manhood. You failed because you’re simply useless!”


    Christopher, struggling to contain his frustration, finally snapped, “Mom! Wendy followed all your instructions regarding Keh Wilson! How can you put all the me on her now? You’re abandoning your benefactor after reaching your goals!”


    Lady Wilson retorted coldly, “You think I abandoned my benefactor after achieving my goals? I never achieved anything! Everything fell apart before we could even get close to our objectives! I’m in this position because of her!”


    Christopher fired back, “Mom, regardless of the situation, you can’t use all the money to repay the bank loan. We need to keep at least two hundred thousand dors to survive! If not, sell some of the antiques Dad left behind to raise some funds. Hiding them won’t help you when you’re gone!”


    “Are you wishing for my death now?” Lady Wilson snapped, her voice sharp and menacing. “Are the three of you turning against me?”


    Lady Wilson was taken aback. She never anticipated Christopher, who had always obeyed her, would suddenly confront her so boldly and speak to her with such disdain.


    Realizing that her eldest son, grandson, and granddaughter weren’t genuinely on her side, she saw them as parasites, draining her resources.


    The more they behaved this way, the more she felt the need to cling tightly to her money and possessions. She would never yield to their demands!<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
