The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1626

Old Mrs. Hammer was quick to react, instantly getting fired up: “Who are you to send Curtis to jail?”

“Mom!” Curtis was scared out of his wits, yelling at Old Mrs. Hammer, “Can you not stir up trouble?”

“It’s alright, the clock here has already started ticking. Let her scream.” Rosalynn chuckled briefly, “Old Mrs. Hammer, I heard you’ve been bragging about Curtis back home. Saying how well he’s doing in H City, that he’s earned his house and car through hard work. Your friends and family are quite jealous, aren’t they?”

Old Mrs. Hammer was taken aback, “Did you... Did you go to my hometown to dig up dirt on me?”

“Indeed, I know all about what you’ve been up to back home. I’ve met quite a few people who aren’t too fond of you either. How long do you think it’d take for the whole village to find out if I spilled your secrets?” Rosalynn asked with a smirk, “Like... how Curtis is actually being kept by Pauline. That his house and car came from her. Or how he’s been selling company resources for profit and is getting jailed for it...”

“You wouldn’t dare!”

“Well, since you say that, let’s give it a try, shall we, Felix?” Rosalynn nodded.

Felix immediately took out his phone and dialed a number. The call was quickly picked up.

Before Old Mrs. Hammer could react, she heard a familiar voice on the other end, “Did you find anything on that shrew Old Mrs. Hammer?”

“We did, but it’s not actually about her, but her son, Curtis.” Felix responded.

Old Mrs. Hammer immediately panicked: “Sign! We’ll sign!”

Felix didn’t say a word and hung up.

The old lady on the phone was an old friend of Old Mrs. Hammer, one she had grown up with.

They’d always been at odds.

As kids, they’d compete about food and clothes. As adults, about who married better.
