    ine was cooking on the first floor when she heard Lady Wilson loudly scolding someone on the street early in the morning. Curiosity piqued, she quickly made her way out on her crutches to see what was happening.


    At that moment, Charlie and ire happened to being downstairs and spotted ine struggling with her crutches.


    ine, filled with excitement, asked, “Hey, did you guys hear that old woman cursing at the street?”


    Charlie and ire nodded in response, with ire adding a hint of embarrassment, “Grandma doesn’t know what’s wrong. She’s on the second-floor terrace cursing this early in the morning.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Upon hearing this, ine eximed, “ire, hurry! Help me get upstairs!”<fn4d9a> Newest update provided by f?ndnovel</fn4d9a>


    ire sighed, “Mom, what’s there to see…”


    ine, leaning on her crutch with her right arm and giving her sitting leg a p with her left, urged, “What could be more entertaining than this? Hurry and help me, or you’ll miss the show!”


    Seeing ine’s determination, Charlie stepped in first, saying, “Honey, let me help Mom.”


    ire agreed, “Alright, I’ll go press the elevator.”


    The two of them assisted ine all the way to the third floor. Once they reached the terrace, ine looked down and spotted old Mrs. Wilson sitting on her own second-floor terrace, continuing her tirade.


    While inside the house, they could only hear Lady Wilson’s noise without understanding her words, but now everything became clear.


    Lady Wilson was still at it, shouting, “You, Hannah, are a thief! How dare you steal my hard-earned money! Where’s your conscience? I curse you to get hit by a car!”


    ine couldn’t help butugh and shouted back, “Hey, old woman, what’s going on? Isn’t your eldest daughter-inw the most devoted to you? Why is she stealing your money on New Year’s Eve?”


    When Lady Wilson heard ine’s voice, she looked up, her face contorted with anger. “ine, this is none of your business! You shrew! Don’t you daree here with your sarcasm!”


    ine retorted, “You’re seventy years old, cursing on your terrace in the morning, and you dare call me a shrew? Talk about having thick skin!”


    Lady Wilson shot back angrily, “You’re the real shrew, ine! Just because you’re living in Thompson First now doesn’t mean you can pretend to be a good person!”


    ine smiled, unfazed. “Oh, deardy, you mentioned I’m a resident of Thompson First. Isn’t it expected that we maintain a certain quality? Unlike you, who lives here but still resorts to stealing from others. Don’t you feel ashamed?”


    She continued cheerfully, “By the way! Did your family enjoy the leeks you stole from usst time?”


    “You… you…” Lady Wilson stammered in rage, her teeth gritted. “ine! I haven’t forgotten about the daffodil incident! Don’t you dare bring that up!”


    ineughed, “You stole our leeks, so why can’t I mention it? I heard that it was those leeks that made your eldest daughter-inw realize she was pregnant! So really, you should be thanking our leeks! Without them, your son wouldn’t be on the path to fatherhood!”


    Recalling the humiliation from the daffodil incident and the subsequent embarrassment only deepened Lady Wilson’s anger. Each memory felt like a knife twisting in her heart.


    Just as she was about to unleash her anger on ine but didn’t know how to start, a police car rushed by and stopped downstairs.


    Several police officers emerged from the vehicle, and Wendy quickly opened the gate. One of the officers asked, “Did your family call the police?”


    Wendy replied in a hurry, “Yes, yes! It was my grandmother who told me to call…”


    At that moment, Lady Wilson sprang up and leaned over the terrace railing, crying out, “Officer! You must help us! Our house has been burrized! I can’t live without my hard-earned money!”
