Female Novel
Chapter 327
Charlie frowned immediately.
He was not a member of the Wilson family. He did not have the so-called family-bond and bloodrelations with them. Therefore, he could tell at a single glance that Lady Wilson was up to one of herbitter tricks once again.
The Wilson family was now in a desperate situation. If they could not revive the Wilson Group, it wouldunquestionably fall apart, and the old lady would instantly fall from the top to the bottom.
Lady Wilson was someone who had worried about her face and reputation all her life, and she wouldrather die than accept the fact that she would be poor and destitute. Therefore, she had to wrack herbrain to find a way to turn things around for the Wilson family.
First, she had tried to bully and trick Claire into joining the Wilson Group again. However, Claire did notgive in to her request.
After that, she had tried using money to try to get a breakthrough from Elaine. However, Elaine failed toconvince Claire into returning to the Wilson Group.
Now, she was trying to target Jacob so that she could find a breakthrough as soon as Jacob caved in.
This might very well be her last chance.
Meanwhile, Jacob was already falling for her trap.
He could feel the knot in his heart loosening, and the respect that he had already lost for his mothersuddenly reappeared in his heart.
Jacob shed tears before he said, “Mom, I do not blame you at all. I know that I am not as capable or assmart as my elder brother. I know that I was not born to be a great or successful person. I must have
disappointed you a lot. I am sorry…”
Lady Wilson grabbed Jacob’s hand tightly before she choked and said, “Good son. You are my goodson. As long as you understand my intentions, it is completely worth it, because even if I die today, Ican die in peace!”
At this time, Christopher hurried forward as he sobbed and said, “Mom! Don’t always speak aboutdying so easily! Jacob and I have already lost our father. We cannot afford to lose you too, mom!”novelbin
After wiping the tears off her face, Lady Wilson said, “As long as the both of you have my best interestsin your heart, I will be smiling even if I die tonight!”
Then, she continued speaking, “The both of you are brothers, so you should always take care and lookout for one another. If both of you are united and of one mind, you will definitely be invincible! As thesaying goes, ‘When two brothers think alike, it is more than gold can buy’. If both of you can sticktogether and remain united, I will not need to worry about the Wilson family anymore! We willundoubtedly be a very strong and powerful family!”
Christopher nodded in acknowledgment when he heard his mother’s words. “Mom, you are right! Iunderstand now. From now on, I will make sure to work hand in hand with Jacob to make the Wilsonfamily even stronger than it is now!”
Jacob had a very excited expression on his face, and it was clear that he had already fallen for the oldlady’s tricks.
Charlie could not help but sigh because the old lady was truly amazing. She had all sorts of tricks upher sleeves, and she could actually manipulate and convince Jacob so easily by just saying a fewwords!
Still, this was what he had already expected!
Jacob was also moved by his mother and his brother’s words, and he sobbed as he said, “Don’t worry,mom. I will work together hand in hand with my elder brother in the future.”
Lady Wilson was very excited and happy when she heard his words, and she blurted out, “Good! Good!Great!”
At this time, Lady Wilson turned around and looked at Harold and Wendy who had their heads loweredand had been keeping silent all this while. “I want both of you to apologize to Claire and Charlie now!Even though both of you are not really Claire’s brother and sister, you are all cousins no matter what itis! Blood runs thicker than water, so how could both of you mistreat Claire and Charlie all the time?”
Having said that, the old lady glared at Wendy before she shouted, “And you, Wendy! How could youtry to hit your own cousin at the opening ceremony today?! Who gave you the courage to do so? I wantyou to apologize to your sister now!”
Harold and Wendy lowered their heads and bowed before they said with great piousness, “Claire, weknow that what we did before was wrong. Please forgive us! We will never do anything to hurt youagain in the future!”
Claire was a little caught off guard at this time. This was because this was the first time she had everseen Harold and Wendy apologizing and admitting their mistakes in such a humble manner. She knewthat both of them had to be struggling internally to put their pride aside and apologize to her.
However, since both of them had already apologized, Claire also replied kindly, “It’s okay. We can justforget whatever happened in the past…”
Lady Wilson was overjoyed, and she quickly said to Claire, “Claire, your father is still in recovery now,so it is very important for us to take good care of him. Even though the Wilson family villa might be a
little old, the environment there is definitely better than the community you are currently living in. Whydon’t you and your whole family move back into the Wilson family villa?”
