Hilla smiled when she heard Auntie Jenny’s word.

What they said was not important. What’s important was that Margaret was the daughter-in-law of the Jorgansen family, and they could not afford to offend her.

"I always thought that this girl was lovely, and she often followed Julian around," said Auntie Alice.

Auntie Jenny didn’t finish her words yet. She smiled faintly, "Who can say for sure about relationships?"

Hilla nodded with a smile and replied calmly,

"In the past, my brother-in-law and I had the same teacher, but I was not as smart as him. Fortunately, my brother-in-law taught me a lot. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so strong."

"But with my brother-in-law here, I believe that he can take good care of Margaret in the future."

Hilla casually explained her relationship with Julian with a smile.

Although there was nothing wrong with Auntie Jenny’s words, others would easily misunderstand her relationship with Julian if they didn’t know Hilla well.

Auntie Jenny smiled. She wasn’t going to do anything anyway.

Julian already won, and she only wanted to live a peaceful life with her son.

Although she had three daughters, she only had one son. And she had high hopes for Marcos since he was a kid.

Although she ended up like this, she had no one to blame.

Misfortune might be a blessing in disguise!

She looked away and started a conversation with Orlenna.

Auntie Alice was a little embarrassed. She said to Orlenna, "Sorry to disturb you today. We were just worried about Margaret, so we came here to check on her. I didn’t mean to upset you."

She thought that only Amelia, Sally, and her would come over.

She didn’t expect that there would be this many people.

If she had known it earlier, she wouldn’t have come with them. Those people were so senseless. Didn’t they know Margaret would be annoyed to see so many people?

Sally cursed in her heart. However, when she looked at Orlenna, her smile became brighter.

Auntie Sally couldn’t help but snort, "I’m going to the bathroom."

They were just trying to cater to the Andersons. What a joke.

The Andersons wouldn’t be swayed by a few words.

Sally despised Alice, and she gave her a nasty look.

She got up and headed upstairs.

There was a bathroom downstairs, but someone was using it.

Orlenna looked at Sally and smiled, "Don’t say that. We are a family. Besides, you are Margaret’s elders. Of course, you care about that kid."

They knew that they would disturb them, but they still showed up. They must have done it on purpose.

Those cousins and aunties from the Jorgansen family were indeed difficult to deal with.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t suck their blood for so many years.

Now that the Jorgansen family and the Anderson family became relatives by marriage, they would be part of the same family as well.

Seeing that Orlenna couldn’t get away, Hilla smiled politely, "I made some soup in the kitchen. I’ll go take a look." Others did not have ill feelings about Hilla’s departure.

After all, taking care of Margaret was the most important thing right now. They came here to check on Margaret after all.

Margaret had already married into the Jorgansen family, so they didn’t have anything to worry about.

It was just that the madam of the Anderson family did not come here often, and she would leave after a month.

It wasn’t like they didn’t know that Bruce came to Far City to seek collaboration with the Jorgansen family.

Since they were from the same family, they should help each other.

And since they would collaborate with Mr. Jorgansen, it wouldn’t matter which Jorgansen he was.

The room upstairs was really quiet.

There was only the sound of footsteps up there.

Margaret got a call, so she left the room.

She was afraid that her voice would wake up the baby.

"What are you talking about?"

"I don’t know you!"

Margaret heard an unfamiliar voice and was about to hang up the phone. But she suddenly heard a female voice on the phone.

"Don’t you remember me? I’m Jessie."

How could it be...

"Why are you here?"

Margaret frowned. Hadn’t she already sent this little devil abroad? How could she still call her?

Moreover, the number showed that she was clearly in the country. Did Julian take Jessie back?

Margaret’s face darkened.

He was still too young and sometimes naive. He couldn’t even handle such an easy task. "Aren’t you happy to hear from me?"

Jessie smiled, but her voice was cold and vicious.

Her heart was filled with hatred.

If it weren’t for this woman, Julian wouldn’t have sent her abroad.

And she wouldn’t have suffered that much.

It was all because of this woman.

"Are you crazy? Why would I be happy to hear your voice? Why would anyone like you? Are you money?"

Margaret rolled her eyes and questioned Jessie sarcastically.

Although she didn’t know how did Jessie get back, she wouldn’t let go of the chance to mess with her.

Did she look like an easy bully?

"I heard that you just got a cute daughter,"

Jessie smirked.

Margaret frowned when she heard Jessie mentioning her daughter.

What was wrong with this woman?

Why did she care if she got a daughter? It wasn’t like she could be her daughter’s stepmother or aunt.

"Are you jealous? Why don’t you get your own with your husband? Just cut the

nonsense. It’s so lame."

Margaret was about to hang up.

Jessie seemed to know Margaret’s next move.

Her words became sharp and mean.

"You are so delusional. The only reason Julian married you was for the wealth and status of the Anderson family. Without these, any woman can replace you."

If it was before, Margaret would be very angry when she heard these words.

Moreover, she would get mad at Julian.

But now, she only sneered.

"So what? I got money and status when I was born. Julian needed me, and he couldn’t leave me. What can you do about it?"

She rolled her eyes.

Margaret didn’t want to hear her nonsense, and she hung up the phone.

She turned around, and the next second she got so terrified that she couldn’t move.

Hilla held her daughter in one hand and stood at the door. Sally was on the floor next to Hilla, and her arms and legs were broken!

It seemed like this old woman didn’t feel any pain. She just fell to the ground and looked at Hilla in horror!

...

Margaret was stunned for a moment. Then she asked, "What are you guys doing?"

Hilla saw how confused Margaret was, and she took a deep sigh.

She took a look at the child in her arms, "Take Missy back to her room first."

It would be better to let Orlenna and her take care of the situation.

When Margaret took Missy from Hilla, she suddenly understood something.

She turned around and glared at Sally, who was lying on the ground.

The next second, she stomped on her.

Margaret cursed, "I knew it. No wonder why that bitch called me all of a sudden. How dare you steal my baby! Do you want to go to prison?"

She was furious.

These people actually had their eyes on her daughter.

She was not that mad in the first place, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

Seeing that Margaret was about to make a move, Hilla quickly stopped her. "No matter what, she is still your aunt. You can leave her to me."

Sally was so terrified that when she opened her mouth, she couldn’t even make a sound.

’Leave me to her... Wasn’t that enough? Would Hilla beat me again?’ Sally thought to herself.

Although Margaret was not willing to let go of her yet, she had to think about the baby. She didn’t want her baby to see her getting violent.

She glared at Sally angrily and instructed Hilla, "Spare no mercy. Beat her up so that she won’t dare to do it again in her life!"

How dare Sally steal her daughter.

She had to pay for what she did!

"No, it was not me. I didn’t do it!"

Sally said in a panic, but she did not dare to raise her voice.

Everyone downstairs was from the Jorgansen family. If they noticed the commotion and found out what she did, she wouldn’t be able to stay in this family anymore.

Hilla didn’t bother looking at Sally.

Her legs were broken, so there was nowhere for her to run.

If Sally made a fuss, she would be at a disadvantage since everyone here was from the Jorgansen family.

The only thing Hilla worried about was that Margaret and the baby would get scared.

Margaret was recovering, and it would be better for her to stay calm.

"You did it. Stop lying."

Margaret snorted. Then she carried Missy back to her room.

Sally looked at Hilla in panic.

Although the Jorgansen family was famous for boxing, not everyone in the family was good at it.

Especially someone like her who was married into this family.

After all these years’ luxury lifestyle, she had forgotten all the moves she had learned before.

Therefore, when Hilla beat her, she didn’t even think of fighting back.

When she came back to her senses, she was already on the floor.

And Hilla was already holding the baby that she stole from the room.

"What are you doing? Our families are relatives by marriage. Are you trying to sabotage the relationship between the two families?"

Sally’s whole body stiffened as Hilla approached.

Hilla sneered when she saw her frightened look.

She was obviously scared. Then why did she and her adopted daughter do that? The people of the Jorgansen family were so funny sometimes. "We can destroy this relation if we want to."

Hilla smiled and said unhurriedly, "If the old madam knew that you destroyed your family’s relationship with the Anderson family, what do you expect her to do?"

Although Hilla was not a member of the Jorgansen family, she knew from the rumors and her past experiences that the old madam was not a softhearted person.

As expected, as soon as Hilla finished her words, Sally’s face turned ugly.

"Please, I beg you, don’t report me to old madam. I didn’t succeed. Please let me go."

If she let Sally go because she didn’t succeed,

Then there would be no crime as attempted murder.

Hilla squatted down and smiled at Sally.

"Jessie sent you here to steal Margaret’s child. Where is she now?"

Jessie was such a coward that she asked her adoptive mother to do this.

This woman was so... revolting.

Sally got extremely nervous when she heard Jessie’s name.

She shook her head vigorously and whispered, "No, no, this has nothing to do with Jessie. She doesn’t know anything."

Hilla didn’t believe Sally’s words.

How could it be so coincidental?

When she came to steal the child, Jessie called Margaret, so Margaret had to get out of the room.

These two were so interesting.

The mother desperately tried to cover up and protect her adoptive child.

But the child would do everything to harm them, and she even put her adoptive mother in danger.

This adopted daughter of the Jorgansen family got a lot of dirty tricks.

"You are still trying to protect her. If your daughter really treats you as her mother, she would have done it herself instead of asking you to do it."

Her daughter put her mother in so much danger. It would be better if she didn’t have this daughter.

Sally was stunned for a second and then quickly shook her head.

"It was not like that. Jessie was kidnapped, and others forced her to do it. She is a good child."

Hilla could not help but frown.

So, there was more to it than it seemed. They needed to teach those people a lesson so they would remember not to mess with them.

Orlenna took away her fake smile after she sent off the visitors.

The maid told her what happened, and her eyes turned cold.

What an ungrateful family.

Outside the courtyard, Alice glanced at the people in the car and pulled Jenny beside her.

"Jenny, have you seen Sally? I felt like I hadn’t seen her since we got in the room."

They sat downstairs and chatted for a long time, but they never saw Sally coming downs. Could it be that she secretly made friends with Margaret?

Sally didn’t look too smart, but she would do unexpected things occasionally.

Sally always told them that she despised the Anderson family, but she was secretly licking their boots?

"The Anderson family was so stingy. We have been sitting for so long, but they didn’t even prepare a meal, and they just kicked us out like this."

Alice felt she was not respected. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Jenny, do you think they kept Sally for dinner?" Alice asked.

<I really should have asked what did Sally brought for Margaret.

She hid it so well from me.

It must be a valuable gift. Why didn’t I think of it?>

Jenny turned around and looked at the house behind her. She lowered her head and whispered, "We should mind our own business."

Then she got into her car.

Although Sally was reluctant, she had no choice but to follow them into the car.

Anyway, she must prepare well and send a big gift next time!
