To ensure the guests felt weed, Charlie decided to invite everyone inside the vi.


    In a flurry, the attendees instructed theirpanions to retrieve the gifts they had prepared from their cars. Soon, a line of at least twenty or thirty people appeared, each carrying luxurious gift boxes as they entered the vi.


    Nearby, Lady Wilson from Vi A04 stared in disbelief, murmuring, “This isn’t just an ordinary gift-giving event! It’s as if officials from ancient times are lined up to pay homage to an emperor!”


    Hannah felt a wave of difort wash over her. “This crowd is incredibly wealthy. Can you imagine the total value of their gifts? It must be close to 100 million!”


    Wendy, with tears in her eyes,mented, “I fear we can’t even stop at 100 million. Just look at Mr. White—he gave away a vi worth over 100 million!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    “Oh dear…” Lady Wilson remarked, her expression pained. “I can’t take it anymore; if I keep watching, I might just have a heart attack…”


    With that, she turned and retreated into the house.


    Hannah, frustrated, remarked, “I’m going to keep watching, regardless.”


    Wendy remained silent, her unease growing as she noticed Gerald White following Mr. White into Charlie’s vi.


    Meanwhile, Haroldy on the bed, wailing, “Mom… Grandma… if I don’t get something to eat soon, I’m going to starve! You can’t just leave me here, injured and hungry. Donald’s men didn’t finish us off, but it seems we’re doomed to starve at home!”


    Lady Wilson quickly responded, “Wendy, didn’t you say you were going out to find a job today? You need to go out and look!”


    She then turned to Hannah and insisted, “Hannah! You have to find work to help support the family!”


    Hannah nodded, a hint of anger in her voice as she replied, “I can go, but this house can’t sustain idlers. If I’m going, you have to go too!”


    “Me?!” Lady Wilson stammered in disbelief, her voice rising in anger. “I’m too old for this! You want me to go find a job?!”


    Hannah shot back, “Why not? What’s so special about being older? Do you think that means you don’t need to eat? If that’s the case, just open the window in the north bedroom and wait for the wind to feed you!”


    “You… you’re ridiculous!” Lady Wilson fumed. “I’m old, and you expect me to go without food? You’re trying to push me to my limit!”


    With a stern expression, Hannah replied, “Our situation is dire! Everyone needs to contribute to the household. Christopher and Harold are currently injured, so they can be excused for now, but you can’t!”<fn3f53> Official source is fin?novel</fn3f53>


    Lady Wilson retorted, “It’s disgraceful! I’m so old, and you’re forcing me to work! Why did our Wilson family even marry you? You’re a heartless daughter-inw! God must have ns to punish you!”


    Hannah smiled coldly, “I’m not going to argue with you. If you refuse to work, I won’t be able to support you. You’re on your own!”


    Lady Wilson, realizing the gravity of their situation, said sheepishly, “We can’t all leave to work. Someone needs to stay home to look after Christopher and Harold.”


    Hannah replied, “You’re the least capable of caring for them right now. They’re bedridden, and you can’t even help them turn over. What’s the point of you staying?”


    She then looked at Wendy and proposed, “Wendy, why don’t you stay and look after your dad and brother while I take your grandmother job hunting?”


    Wendy nodded quietly, “Alright…”


    ……


    At that moment, Charlie was at home.
