Chapter 35
“Jensen, why are you begging this jinx?” Carol stepped forward and grabbed Jensen’s arm. She had never seen her son so humble in front of Gilda. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Carol thought, ‘It has always been us who make the requirements arrogantly and Gilda just obeys humbly. Why did the situation change completely now?‘
Carol walked toward Gilda and said arrogantly, “We slandered you, so what? You don’t have any reputation. You didn’t dare to say anything when we scolded you at home before!”
Carol shouted, but then she saw Jensen’s face gradually darkened. Only then did she realize that she had exposed her attitude toward Gilda over the past three years.
Patrick couldn’t stand it anymore. He squinted at Gilda and said, “These are your mother–in–law and sister–in–law whom you have served wholeheartedly for three years? Look what kind of people you’ve given your heart and soul to!”
Thinking of Gilda’s background, Patrick calmed down a little and said, “It’s up to you. But I won’t allow you to ruin the Lynch family’s reputation!”
Gilda comforted Patrick, “Don’t worry, Patrick.”
Then Gilda smiled coldly at Carol and said, “If I’m right, you will definitely say that it’s fine that your daughter smashed my store. You can compensate me. Am I right?”
That was exactly what Carol was thinking, so she stopped holding herself back. “Isn’t that true? How much can your store be worth? Can’t our Harrington family afford it?”
“Are you sure you can pay 60 million dollars easily?” Gilda slowly said the amount.
Hearing the amount of compensation, Carol almost fell to the ground in panic. “What did you say?! How can a small multi–brand boutique be worth 60 million dollars? How dare you fool me?!”
Gilda glanced at Carol coldly and said, “If you don’t believe me, I have the loss assessment details. You will be convinced by then.”
“You jinx, I’ll tear you into pieces! How dare you!” Carol’s voice suddenly became sharp again. She wanted to rush forward and attack Gilda, but Jensen stopped her.
Jensen frowned and said to stop Carol with a sullen face, “Shut up!”
The quarrel between them had already attracted the attention of most celebrities in Allath, and everyone understood it after hearing it carefully.
A noble daughter–in–law of a wealthy family was treated so badly at home. They all looked at Carol with
resentment.
“The Harrington family seems to be wealthy and noble, but the mother–in–law and sister–in–law are so vulgar.”
“She scolds and bites her daughter–in–law when she’s angry. Her daughter–in–law is so pathetic.”

“Indeed. And there’s even a bad sister–in–law.”

“See? Even at this moment, Mr. Harrington is still protecting his mother and sister. We can imagine how desperate Ms. Lynch was before they got divorced.”
“If I were Ms. Lynch and met such a suffocating family and man, I would also cheat on him!”
The others chatted interestedly, and Jensen had heard all their conversations.
Jensen thought, ‘Maybe… I really haven’t paid enough attention to this marriage.
‘Even the others can tell the problems at once, but I failed to notice them in the past three years!
Hearing Sherry’s cry and Madeleine’s pleading, as their backbone, Jensen could only be humble again. “Gilda, I will compensate for the loss of 60 million dollars. Can we stop it here today?”
“You have to compensate me, and they have to go to prison as well,” Gilda said in an indifferent and prideful tone.
Jensen slightly narrowed his eyes, looked at Gilda’s prideful face, and said, “I know you are angry with the Harrington family, but it’s too much to let them be taken away by the police in public.”
One was the daughter of the Harrington family and the other was the daughter of the Donovan family. If they were taken away by the police in públic, the two families would be embarrassed.
Gilda said, “It’s up to me. The 60 million dollars are enough to put Sherry in prison for several years, and she will be sensible when she comes out. If the Harrington family can’t teach their child well, the police officers in prison will teach her!”
Gilda stared at Madeleine’s face covered with tears aggressively. “And you! You know whether you did it or not. When the police take you to the police station, you’ll see the evidence I prepared for you!”
