"Mhm." Lady Wilson nodded and said, "I can also see what you're talking about. However, Wendy has always been very unwilling to reveal the noble man's identity. So, I can only feel very anxious because of this matter.”
As she spoke, Lady Wilson said again, "By the way, Christopher, you should talk to Wendy alone later. Ask her how far she has progressed with that noble man. I f their relationship is still unclear, you should ask her t o speed things up a little. It would be best if she could make it a done deal as soon as possible.”
Christopher said awkwardly, "Mom, how could I possibly talk to Wendy about such things? It makes it seem as though I'm so anxious to sell my daughter off."
Lady Wilson blurted out, "It is only most appropriate for you to ask her this question. Wendy has always had some opinions about me because of the matter relating to Kenneth Wilson prior to this. So, she will definitely not open up her heart to speak to me if I were to go and ask her about this." 2
Harold immediately volunteered himself as he said, " Grandma, why don't I talk to Wendy instead? There is no generation gap between the both of us, so it should be easier for the both of us to communicate with one
another.” "You should just forget about it!” Lady Wilson gave him a look before she said, "There is not another person in the Wilson family who has an even worse ability to express themselves as compared to you!"
Harold was instantly very dissatisfied and unconvinced as he said, "Grandma! What do you mean by that?! What is wrong with my ability to express myself? I think that I'm actually quite eloquent!"
Lady Wilson was very dissatisfied as she said, "If you were truly eloquent, Loreen would have already become the Wilson family’s daughter-in-law! If you had managed to hold onto Loreen back then, our family would not have been reduced to this state!"
Speaking of this, Lady Wilson was very angry as she said, "But Harold, even though you do not have any other skills, your ability to stir up trouble and fan the flames is actually very powerful! Back then, if it weren't because you came to me and slandered Claire, I would not have gone back on my word and given you the director position that I had promised to Claire instead!" 2
"Claire was originally just a puppet to me. Aside from her refusal to divorce Charlie when I asked her to do s 0, she had always done everything else that I asked her to do. It was all because I was bewitched by you that one time that Claire began to rebel against me, and she was even completely unmoved when she saw that I had ended up on the streets!” 4
Speaking of this, Lady Wilson looked at Harold, and she was very dissatisfied as she said, "Harold, the words 'unable to be placed in an important position' describe you perfectly!"
Harold did not expect his grandmother to rebuke him directly, so he was speechless for a moment, and he could only lower his head in shame. 2
Christopher hurriedly tried to smooth things over as h e said, "Mom, don’t scold Harold anymore. We have indeed led a rather miserable life some time ago, but honestly speaking, who would not have suffered any hardships at all in their lives? Just look at Jacob and his family. They also had a very hard time a few years ago, but didn’t their lives also slowly get better later 0 n? Wendy’s current career development is going smoothly now. If she can gain a harvest in both her career and love life, our family might be able to rise again!” 2
When she heard these words, Lady Wilson could not help but sigh as she said, "Sigh. I used to think that a grandson is good and that a grandson would always b e one of us. Now, it seems as though my granddaughter is much more reliable as compared to my grandson!"
After saying that, Lady Wilson spoke up again as she said emotionally, "If I would have known that Wendy was so capable, I would have allowed Wendy to manage the company more than a year ago. Perhaps Wilson Group would not have gone bankrupt, then."
