In truth, Kathleen, who was aside, originally felt that it did not matter, but when she saw that Claire seemed to be stopping it on purpose, she also smiled and said, “Aunt Elaine, I’m afraid it won’t look good if we take a photo together in this public place. Why don’t we take a picture together again when we have the opportunity to meet in private in the future?”When Elaine heard this, her originally disappointed mood instantly improved. She thought to herself, ‘My dear son-in-law is really capable, and even Miss Fox is his client. So, it’s inevitable that he will meet up with her again in the future. In that case, it will really be awesome if I can take a picture with Miss Fox at a private gathering when the time comes.’So, she agreed without hesitation and then said with a smile, “Miss Fox, you have to come to Aurous Hill to spend some time when you can. You should come to our house as a guest at that time!”Kathleen nodded and said with a smile, “No problem, Aunt Elaine! I wi

Claudia nodded gently and said seriously, “Okay, Charlie. Thank you, Charlie...”Stephanie, who was aside, also smiled and said, “Charlie, don’t forget that Claudia’s mother is also from Aurous Hill. Speaking of which, Aurous Hill is also Claudia’s natal home.”Charlie smiled and said, “Is that so? Do you have any relatives in Aurous Hill?”“Not anymore.” Claudia shook her head and said, “Both my grandparents have passed away, and I have an uncle who is abroad. I’ve not had much contact with him, so I basically do not have any relatives left. I can’t even pronounce the names of some of my distant relatives whom I haven’t met before.”Charlie smiled and said, “It’s okay, you still have Mrs. Lewis, Stephanie, and me. We are all your relatives.”Claudia was moved and nodded heavily. At this time, Charlie introduced to Mrs. Lewis, “By the way, Mrs. Lewis, let me introduce my mother-in-law to you.”With that said, he gestured toward Elaine as he said to Elaine, “Mom, this is Mrs. Le

Secondly, he felt emotional at the great turnaround in his life.Ever since he was reduced to trash that was trampled on by everyone at Lady Wilson’s birthday banquet, his life had really bottomed out before he could finally soar to the sky. At this moment, the captain walked into the cabin from the cockpit and said very politely, “Distinguished guests, I’m the captain of this flight. I’m very happy to serve you today. We have about eleven hours of flight, and we can take off if you’re ready.”Elaine subconsciously took out her cell phone. She wanted to ask the captain to start all over from the beginning, but she had no choice but to give up when she thought of how there were still many other people around. However, she still wanted to show off a little, so she said to Claire, “Claire, call your father and tell him to hurry up and get ready. Ask him to pick us up at the airport in the Rolls-Royce.”Claire said helplessly, “Mom, didn’t you hear what the captain just said? We have

Elaine stood at the roadside of the exit at the airport and kept calling Jacob. However, her calls could not get through.She cursed, “This damn Jacob! I don’t know where he has gone. He’s not answering my calls!”Claire asked her, “Mom, are you sure you told him what time to come?”Elaine said in exasperation, “Of course, I told him clearly. He also promised me over the phone. I don’t know why he hasn’t shown up and isn’t answering my calls. He’s really unreliable!”Claire also hurriedly took out her cell phone and called Jacob, but as Elaine had mentioned, he still did not answer his phone. She said with a very nervous expression, “Dad couldn’t have met with an accident, right? It’s not his bedtime yet, so why isn’t he answering our calls?”Charlie hurriedly comforted, “Honey, don’t be so negative. Dad is in good health, so how could he have met with an accident? Perhaps it’s just because he has fallen asleep. I think we should go home first and take a look!”“Yes!” Claire qu

The taxi driver was also a little angry. His eyes opened wide in anger as he said, “I smoked when the car was parked. I didn’t smoke when you came into the cab. The taxi company rules stipulate that we aren’t allowed to smoke in front of the passengers. I didn’t violate the rules, did I? You will only be taking my car for ten minutes, at most. Aren’t you going to allow me to smoke at other times?” Elaine said angrily, “Get this clear, the taxi is your service place, and you have to keep your service place clean, with fresh air. Is it reasonable for you to make the whole place smell so strongly of cigarettes?”The taxi driver said angrily, “This service place is provided by the taxi company, not me. I am simply the driver. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to the taxi company to complain then.”With that said, the taxi driver muttered in dissatisfaction, “It’s just cigarettes, what’s the big fuss? Doesn’t your husband smoke?”Elaine rolled her eyes at him and replied, “He

Elaine nodded and said casually, “That’s almost the same as my husband before he left. He smoked one and a half packets a day, and as a result, he was gone in his early thirties. After saying that, she looked at the taxi driver and asked curiously, “Mister, I think you’re forty or fifty years old, right?”The taxi driver laughed and said, “I... I’m fifty-two years old...”“Awesome.” Elaine gave him a thumbs up and said seriously, “You’re doing pretty well. If you clench your teeth and persist for a dozen years, you would have lived twice as long as my husband.”The taxi driver’s expression at this time was much uglier than crying.At this time, Elaine could not help but sigh as she said, “In fact, what’s the point of living so long? My husband left early and didn’t have to worry about anything unlike me, where I had to assume both the role of a father and mother. Sometimes, I think that it’d be better if the person who left was me. In that case, I would die earlier and be reborn

The three of them walked into the neighborhood with their luggage when they heard a short car horn sound from behind.The three subconsciously looked back only to see a large Mercedes-Benz SUV slowly drive over. The window was rolled down, and a woman poked her head out and said in surprise, “Oh, Elaine! When did you come back from the United States?!”When Elaine heard this, she was surprised and said, “Hannah?! Is it really you?!”Hannah drove the car forward again, stopped directly beside Elaine, then leaned on the window with a smug expression as she said with a smile, “Elaine, you’re really funny. You don’t recognize your sister-in-law after going to the United States to stay for a month?!”Elaine’s brows immediately furrowed. Several voices were rising and falling in her heart at this moment. The first voice was, “Damn it! How is this bitch, Hannah, driving a Mercedes-Benz? Wasn’t she so poor that she even had to starve? Two disabled people are lying in her house, and the

It was also at that time that Elaine truly realized that Hannah and Christopher really had the courage and intention to destroy others!Therefore, Elaine had always held a grudge against Hannah and had always been wary of her!The reason why Elaine was close to Hannah was because Hannah would flatter her and compliment her all the time, which gave Elaine a sense of superiority. Elaine also enjoyed the feeling of trampling all over Hannah when Hannah had still been flattering her. However, even though she had brought Hannah out to eat, drink, and have fun every day, she would always remember how cunning Hannah was. So, she had always guarded herself against Hannah in order to prevent getting tricked again. She had originally thought that it would be impossible for Hannah to turn things around again in this life, but she never expected this bitch to turn things around so quickly!She recalled the logo she had seen on the rear of the car and could not help but ask Charlie, “My dear
