Darrell was stepping over the line. Even Kenneth felt offended when he heard those words.
Kenneth spoke up, “Darrell, is this how you speak to your elders?”
Darrell smiled. “Dad, you love my mom the most, don’t you? So what’s the matter? This woman has bullied my mom for years, so I reprimanded her a little.
“But are you pitying her now? Or have you just been faking your feelings for my mom?”
“Kenny!” Jessica shouted.
Kenneth held Jessica in his arms, comforting her as he denied it. “Nonsense. I just don’t want other people to think that our family lacks proper manners.”
“You’re overthinking it, Dad. She has said even worse things to my mom. I was just giving her a taste of her medicine. Moreover, Grandpa has already agreed to acknowledge me as part of the
Williams family.”
Kenneth knew Harold too well. Both Kenneth and Harold were stubborn men, and neither of them would easily admit defeat.
Darrell had only gone to the study for a short while. What did he use to convince Harold?
“Really?” Kenneth’s expression was filled with suspicion.
“Of course, Dad. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Edmund about it. By the way, Mom, you’ve always wanted to move in, right? Go and pick out a room for yourself. We can move in by today.”
Kenneth was bewildered by the sudden change. He looked at Edmund. As expected, Edmund didn’t seem to deny it. By the looks of it, Darrell was telling the truth.
“W-We can move in for real?”
“Yes.” Edmund nodded.
Janice frowned, wondering if Harold had softened his heart.
Janice didn’t know what happened with Harold. But she could see that Darrell had already treated the house as his own.
“Aunt Janice, you and my dad divorced a long time ago. Logically speaking, you’re no longer part of the Williams family.
“The Williams family has already shown you enough kindness by providing for you for so many years. Now, my mom is back, and she’s the rightful lady of the house.
“If I were you, I would leave this place of my own accord in case I made a fool of myself.”
Jessica said, “Darrell, how could you talk to your Aunt Janice like that? Janice, I’ve pampered this child too much. Please don’t mind what he says.
“This is your home, so you can stay here for as long as you want. No one will chase you away.”
Jessica emphasized her status with every word she spoke. As long as she could make it in here, she would have all the chances in the world.
But with Kenneth around, she still had to put on a generous front.
Janice crossed her arms. “As expected, your son takes after you. If you don’t set a good example, he won’t be any good either. Let’s see how many days you can last here.”
With that, Janice swaggered away. Sharon hastily followed.
“Mrs. Williams Senior, those people are going too far! Why didn’t you fight back?”
“I trust that Mr. Harold knows what he’s doing. Something must have happened to Hunter. Let’s observe the situation first instead of acting recklessly,” Janice lowered her voice as she spoke.
“Understood, Mrs. Williams Senior.”
After Madison hurriedly out of Harold’s room, this was the scene she saw. “Mom, you’ve suffered so much injustice.”
Janice smiled nonchalantly. “That’s no problem at all. It’s not even a hundredth of what happened in the past. By the way, did you hear anything?”
“Darrell-“
Madison was about to speak when her phone rang. Her immediate reaction was to answer the call.
It was an unfamiliar number. Madison had a feeling that it was Hunter. It had to be him!
After all, few people knew about her phone number. She had also never received scam calls.
“Hello…”
Her heart was racing. She feared that she might get disappointed again.
But then, she heard the familiar voice coming from the other end of the line. “It’s me, Madie.”
Madison’s heart finally settled down instead of being on edge all the time.
Glancing around her, she asked in a whisper, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. Some issues cropped up when I was trying to capture those people alive, so I could only make use of their plans.”
Madison didn’t know where Hunter was, but his voice was suppressed.
She hid the expression on her face. “Got it.”
They hadn’t talked much before Hunter ended the call. Before Hunter hung up, he said, “Wait for me to come home.”
“Alright.”
Madison knew that he was trying to avoid alerting the enemy. The enemy was very vigilant. If they knew that Hunter hadn’t died, they would do something else.
Janice was about to ask some questions when Madison gestured for her to stay quiet. Janice instantly realized what was going on.
She muttered, “Good to know that he’s alright.”
“I’ll tell Grandpa about it. We’ll have to play along with him.”
“Got it.”
After learning that Hunter was still alive, Madison could finally shed the burdens on her heart. To avoid exposing this secret, she quickly hid her emotions and then left dejectedly.
Janice’s acting skills were even better. She pouted. “Come on, let’s see what this family is up to.”
Meanwhile, the others had already arrived at the bedrooms. Jessica fell in love with the master bedroom, which was about 3,000 square feet. “Darling, can I stay here? This room is so pretty.” “Of course, it’s pretty. Mrs. Williams Senior decorated it herself,” Edmund responded coldly.
Jessica had already noticed that this was the master bedroom. But when she heard Edmund’s words, she put on an innocent look.
“Sorry, I didn’t know that this was Janice’s room. I just thought that it had a nice view. Look, you can see the lake opposite us from here. It has great lighting too. I thought no one was staying here.
“It’s okay. Mom, if you like this room, just take it. You’ll be the real lady of the Williams family in the future, so you can stay anywhere you want. Don’t you agree, Dad?”
Raising an eyebrow, Darrell looked at Kenneth. This time, Kenneth didn’t agree with that sentiment. Instead, he looked at the room that hadn’t changed from before.
It was the room Janice personally decorated according to Kenneth’s preferences. A few memories surfaced in his mind.
“There are lots of empty rooms in the villa. If you want a view of the lake, you can get a room upstairs. It’s troublesome to move into an already occupied room.”
Unlike his tame behavior in the past, Darrell turned extremely arrogant. “Dad, do you seriously think that this is just a room issue? This is a representation of identity.
“From today onward, Mom is the only lady of the Williams family. Have you forgotten the hardships
Mom has gone through with you throughout these years?
“Now, you finally have a chance to acknowledge our status, but you’re throwing that chance away?
As Darrell spoke, Jessica began to cry. She looked like she had suffered a lot of injustice with him.
“Don’t cry, I don’t mean anything else by that. I’m just worried that you can’t get used to staying in rooms other people have already lived in before. If you want the room, feel free to take it.”
As Edmund watched the two put on an act, he rolled his eyes.
He wondered how confused Kenneth was back then that he would be manipulated to this extent.
Kenneth looked at Janice. No matter how shameless he was, he couldn’t pretend like it was nothing. With an uncomfortable expression, he said, “Jess likes this room. Can you let her have it?”
Unable to ignore this, Sharon interrupted, “Mr. Williams Senior, the villa is so huge, it’s overflowing with rooms. I can’t believe that after so many years, Jessica hasn’t changed her ways.
“She’ll take anything that Mrs. Williams Senior likes. She snatched a man from Mrs. Williams Senior previously, and now, she won’t even leave a room alone. What’s her problem?”
“I…” Kenneth also felt that it wasn’t an appropriate thing to do. There were so many rooms for
Jessica to choose from, so why would she insist on this one?
Even if Jessica didn’t feel bad about it, he did. He was forced into a corner by Jessica and Darrell, so he didn’t have the option to decline.
Janice lifted her hand to stop Sharon. “Sharon, since they like it, just give it to them.”
“Mrs. Williams Senior!” Sharon stomped her feet. “How can you let them have the room?”
Janice had carefully picked out every decoration in this room. The prized collection consisted of things she got from auctions to please Kenneth.
She spent a lot of money to create a warm room for them, but Kenneth had never once looked at it in detail.
“If I can let go of a man, why would I get hung up over a room?”
Janice said in a nonchalant tone, “Kenneth, I can let you have the room, but I spent a lot of money on the decorations. You won’t mind if I take those away, will you?”
Kenneth thought that she would go crazy, but the woman in front of him was too calm. She didn’t look like the Janice he knew. He felt something bitter in his throat. “Of course.”
Janice pointed carelessly. “Sharon, get someone to help you. Clear my things from this room. I’ll be sleeping with Madie tonight.”
“Understood, Mrs. Williams Senior. Should we move the collection over as well?”
When Sharon said those words, she formed another grudge toward Kenneth. Other than spending money, Janice had also spent lots of time and effort collecting those things.
When Janice lost her sanity, she never once smashed the items in her room.
“It’s okay. Move them to the storeroom. Find an auction sometime and get rid of them at low prices. We’ll give the money to Madie as a present.’
Once again, Kenneth looked at Janice in disbelief.
No one knew better than Kenneth how stubborn Janice was with her feelings toward him. He could still remember her showing him the paintings and antiques she had gathered.
He remembered the expression on her face back then. She looked like she was offering treasures to him.
She was born with arrogance, but for his sake, she tried her best to hide it. She also couldn’t help the smile on her face.
“Look, Kenneth. This is a drawing by a famous artist. I worked very hard to win it at an auction.”
Back then, Janice had stars in her eyes, and she was as proud as the sun in the sky.
When had she changed?
She had turned from a brilliant sun into a cold moon. There was no longer any trace of love toward him in her eyes.
She even nonchalantly asked that the items be sold at a low price.
“Janice!” Kenneth grew furious.
Janice looked at him lazily. “Do you have anything to say about how I deal with my things?”
Before Kenneth would reply, Janice added coldly, “Even if you do, hold it in! I bought them with my money. They have nothing to do with you at all.”
With that, Janice turned around to leave. She didn’t even look back.
Kenneth gazed in the direction she left. He had a complicated feeling in his heart.
Jessica could see what he was thinking. This was what Kenneth was like. He didn’t treasure
Janice when she tried so hard to win his favor.
But now that Janice didn’t have any feelings for him anymore, he couldn’t get used to it.
“Kenny, is Janice mad at me? Why don’t I give up the room? I think it’s fine to stay upstairs.”
