He was now wiser, and so stopped provoking Elaine to prevent any trouble.
Wendy came forward and said to Elaine with great respect, "Elaine... I was very immature before and made many mistakes as well. Please don't be angry with my past mistakes. If you don’t mind, our families can continue to stay in contact.”
Elaine didn't expect Wendy's change of attitude.
Seeing how respectful Wendy was put her in a good mood.
She nodded and agreed, "Let’s forget about the past. In the future, I'll come over to meet your mom. Us sisters-in-law will stay in the same boat and anger the old witch!"
As Elaine said that, she changed to a mysterious look and whispered to Hannah, "Hannah, you can't always b e resigned to this old witch! You were too obedient and tolerant to her before. We had nothing to say whenever she treated us arrogantly. After all, she was the head of the family. Does she still think that she’s still as powerful as before? Those days are long gone!”
"She can't have anything she wants now. Besides, she's already old. She can't fight with you nor win by scolding you. What else do you have to be afraid of?" "Why did you even kneel to her earlier? You must be
out of your mind!" "If I were you, I would've rushed in as soon as I came back. I'll kick her down if she dares to stop me!"
Elaine became very worked up and even gritted her teeth as she went on. "You shouldn't be scared of her i n the future! If she dares to embarrass you again, scold her back! If she dares to talk back, hit her! She'll stop finding fault with you after you hit her twice!”
Hannah was deeply inspired by Elaine’s speech and nodded enthusiastically. "You're right! I was too afraid of her before! I was traumatized by her! Looking at it now, she's just an old woman who can’t even support herself. What's so great about her? Besides, this villa doesn't even belong to her. It belongs to Donald! She can live here only with Donald's permission. If he stops allowing her to live here, she will have to get out of here immediately!”
Elaine agreed with a nod. "Great! Now that you have that in your mind, remember to fight back if this happens again in the future."
