Lady Wilson asked maliciously, "Did I ever ask for your help? When did I say that I needed you to help m e teach my daughter-in-law a lesson? It was entirely because you couldn't stand the sight of Elaine, so you beat her up!"
Jennifer glared at her in disbelief and was utterly disappointed. "Lady Wilson, your attitude just turns on a dime! Back then, we defended you and protected you with all our might, but this is what we get in the end!"
Lady Wilson said with a blank look on her face, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but this is also a lesson for you: to tell you to know your own place and stop thinking about making friends with someone out of your reach!”
Gritting her teeth indignantly, Jennifer said, "Oh! Old coot, is that so? Fine! I’ll just stay here! Let’s see what you can do about it!"
Yulia and Yara said in unison, "That’s right! We won’t leave!"
Lady Wilson did not expect them to be perverse, so she growled coldly, "Stop your prattles and ask for the impossible. Why don’t you look at yourselves in the mirror? Do you really think stinking country bumpkins like you deserve to live in Thompson First villa? This world must be very unfair if even people like you can live in such a luxurious villa!" 3
Then, she added, donning an arrogant look, "I was just unlucky that I was forced to stay in the detention center for two days. Do you really think that I am the same kind of person like you?"
Vara chided furiously, "Lady Wilson! There's a saying that once someone loses his or her power, it will be worse than an ordinary person! You better don't go too far, you old coot! If you piss us off, we’ll beat you up regardless of your age!" 4
"That’s right!" Yulia immediately echoed, "Just like how we beat Elaine back then, we can beat you too!"
Lady Wilson smirked. "Try and beat me then. If you dare lay your hand on me, I'll call the police immediately! I’m sure they will arrest you country bumpkins back to where you belong!"
Jennifer clenched her fist in great dismay, with the strong urge to rush over and punch Lady Wilson in the face right now.
