Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Old Madam Walton took off her kitchen gloves and smashed them into Sarah’s face. Do you think I believe your words? Get lost!” She still dared to bully her granddaughter at home. If she wasn’t around today, would Sarah physically attack Mia?!
Sarah was filled with hatred. That brat Amelia clearly knew that Old Madam Walton was in the kitchen, but she deliberately didn’t say anything. After provoking her, she ran to the kitchen. How could she be so scheming at such a young age?!
Sarah was angry and anxious. She could not help but say, “Mom, why do you only know how to protect her?! You’ll spoil Amelia like this!”
Amelia pursed her lips and looked at her grandmother before looking at Sarah. “I didn’t. I didn’t insult anyone. It was Second Aunt who said that I was an unlucky child and that she started to suffer because I came here. I said that Second Aunt wasn’t unlucky because of Mia, but because her shadow was crooked. Second Aunt started to get angry and wanted to teach Mia a lesson.”
Old Madam Walton’s face darkened. “Mother Taylor, pack her things and throw them out. Our Walton family can’t afford such a daughter-in-law!”
Sarah’s eyes turned red as she bit her lip. “Just dote on Amelia! Sooner or later, you’ll spoil her rotten!” With that, she turned around and returned to her room angrily. Chase her away? Impossible.
Sarah went upstairs and closed the door, refusing to leave no matter what! She felt that Old Madam Walton might have gone senile. That little bastard Amelia had said that on purpose. Could they not tell? She knew how to frame someone at such a young age, yet they were still covering for her!
Old Madam Walton was also furious. “What kind of thing is this! She can’t
teach her own child well. Other people say a few words and she says that her in-laws are interfering in her family matters, but in the end? When it’s her turn, she starts to teach my Mia a lesson!”
Mother Taylor coughed and reminded her, “Old Madam, don’t be angry. Miss
Mia is still here…”
Amelia raised her hand to calm Old Madam Walton down. “Grandma, don’t be angry. Don’t be angry… Her face was filled with self-reproach and frustration. Her mother had clearly said that she had to make her grandma happy, but she had made her grandma angry.
Old Madam Walton suppressed her temper and decided to coax Amelia first before dealing with Sarah. After coaxing Amelia to drink a bowl of sweet soup, she played with her in the room for a while. Only when Amelia fell asleep did she close the door and gently leave. Her originally kind face darkened.
“Where’s Sarah?” Old Madam Walton asked.
“Second Madam just went to pick up Miss Emma and Young Master Harper,” Mother Taylor said. Sarah had snuck out while Old Madam Walton was coaxing Amelia to sleep.
Old Madam Walton continued to ask, “Has she packed her luggage?
Mother Taylor nodded. “I packed everything after Second Madam went out just now. Everything is here.”
Old Madam Walton was about to give orders to throw Sarah’s things out when she heard Emma crying outside the manor. “No! I don’t want to. Waah…” Who knew what happened, but she started crying as soon as she returned home.
After a while, Harper ran in and muttered, “How annoying. Crying every day! When he saw Old Madam Walton, he quickly called her Grandma and ran upstairs to close the door.
Old Madam Walton and Mother Taylor went outside. At this moment, Sarah was half-squatting on the ground and coaxing Emma. On the way back, the more Sarah thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She was afraid that Old Madam Walton would really chase her out in a fit of anger, so she told Emma in the car to massage Grandma’s back when she returned. She even asked her to give her toys to Amelia because Sarah knew that Emma would definitely cry endlessly when she heard this. As long as the child cried, Old Madam Walton would not be able to care about her. As expected, Emma cried and made a scene.
Hence, Sarah patiently coaxed her, “Alright, Emma, stop crying, okay?” Unexpectedly, when Emma heard this, she cried even harder.
At this moment, Old Madam Walton came out. She looked at Emma coldly. Perhaps she was still angry, or perhaps Emma always wanted to solve problems by crying once or twice, making people immune. Old Madam Walton scolded coldly, “If you want to cry, stand there and cry! Mother Taylor, give her a basin! If you don’t fill the basin with tears, don’t enter the house!”
Emma was so frightened that she trembled. Tears hung on her face and she did not dare to cry. At this moment, Sarah could not take it anymore. She shielded Emma behind her. “Mom, what are you doing? Don’t scare Emma.”
Seeing that someone was protecting her, Emma cried again. Her cries were sharp and she even stomped her feet as she cried..
