Translator: 549690339 |

The private room fell into a deathly silence once again!

At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

They couldn’t believe that the phone call Greg had made wasn’t just for show.

The person he called might very well have been the head of the inspection office.

But Greg was so young, and it was said he came from the countryside, how could he know the head of the inspection office?

Could he have some unknown identity?

“Mom, I’m really going to lose my job now,” Zac Crowe said with a mournful face.

Jasmine Lampe glared at him and said sternly, “What’s the hurry, just call your brother-in-law, it’s not that big of a deal.”

After speaking, she turned to Asthon Crowe and said, “Old man, you call

Adeline. He will listen to you.”

Asthon Crowe was silent for a while, then nodded his head and dialed the number on his cell phone.

However, after several rings, no one answered.

“What do we do now?”

Seeing this scene, Jasmine Lampe suddenly panicked; she had gone to great lengths to secure this job for her younger son.

Now to have it gone just like that, how could she be reconciled?

Asthon Crowe’s face also showed a trace of anger: “I will make another call. I refuse to believe that Alfred Webb would dare not answer my call.”

After saying this, he dialed again.

This time, the call was finally answered, but it was not Alfred Webb on the line, it was Heather Crowe.

Her voice was slightly hoarse, “Dad, is there something you needed to call about?”

Before Asthon Crowe could speak, Jasmine Lampe snatched the phone away

and yelled into it:

“Don’t you know what’s wrong?

That damned bastard, he’s really good, isn’t he? Just one phone call and your brother’s job is gone. How can his heart be so vicious?

Heather was silent for a while, then sighed, “Mom, this matter…”

“Don’t give me that. Put Alfred on the phone. He’s got the nerve to instigate others to do dirty work but none to answer the phone?”

Jasmine Lampe trembled with anger; her son-in-law, who used to be so obedient, was now allying with outsiders against her.

Who gave him the courage?

On the other end of the phone, Heather Crowe’s face was also very ugly, and she couldn’t help saying, “Mom, you really went too far today.

The Reverie Inn is Abbott family property, after all, and that car was a birthday present Adeline gave to Lois. How could you… want everything for yourselves?

“I gave him my daughter, what’s wrong with wanting one car? And we’re not even asking for a new one. I’ve raised my daughter for so many years, isn’t she worth a car?”

Listening to her mother’s unreasonable claims, Heather Crowe finally couldn’t hold back and angrily said, “Mom, you only think about profiting yourselves. Have you ever considered my situation?”

“What situation do you have?” jasmine Lampe sneered, “It seems Alfred Webb takes good care of you, feeding and clothing you well, and now you’ve learned to turn your elbow outward, haven’t you?”

“Mom, I…”

“Enough, I can’t talk to you. Have Alfred answer the phone. If he can’t give me an explanation today, it’s not over between us!”

Upon hearing this, Heather’s heart fell, and with a crying tone she said, “Mom, there’s a limit to everything. I really can’t help you this time. Adeline… Adeline is going to divorce me.”

“Divorce… Divorce?”

Jasmine Lampe said in disbelief, “Everything was fine… why would he want to divorce you…”

Heather asked in return, “Don’t you know why?”

Jasmine Lampe was completely flabbergasted and asked somewhat unwillingly, “Then… Zac’s job, there’s really no way to save it?”

“Heh, I’m struggling to save myself now, you better fend for yourself. Heather let out a disappointed sneer and then hung up the phone.

“Juan… Juan…”

Jasmine Lampe instantly realized what had happened, but when she tried to call again, the phone was already turned off.

Zac Crowe still hadn’t realized the seriousness of the problem and shamelessly asked, “Mom, when is Lois Abbott going to send me that Jeep Wrangler?”

Slap!

What responded to him was a loud slap across the face.

Jasmine Lampe had put all her strength into this slap, stunning Zac Crowe. He covered his face, looking at his mother in disbelief, “Mom, why did you hit me?”

“It’s all your fault, all your fault. If it weren’t for you, why would Alfred Webb want to divorce your sister?”

Jasmine Lampe trembled with rage as she pointed at Zac Crowe and cursed,

“I’m going to beatyou to death today!”

“Mom, don’t hit him, Zac is still a child.”

“Mom, please calm down…”

Seeing Jasmine Lampe erupt in anger, the Crowe family members quickly intervened, causing chaos in the private room.

After a long while, the room finally quieted down again, and the Crowe family members had ashen faces, looking as if they’d lost their parents.

Because they knew that if Heather Crowe really did divorce Alfred Webb, that meant they had lost their free meal ticket.

“Mom, what do we do now?”

“What else can we do? We have to find Alfred Webb.

The group immediately drove to the Abbott family’s home.

However, by the time they arrived, there was no one at the Abbott residence. Because at that moment, Alfred Webb had already boarded a plane to Hawaii with Heather Crowe.

With no other options, the Crowe family placed their hopes on Lois Abbott, hoping she would plead with Greg Jensen on behalf of Heather Crowe to let Zac off the hook.

Lois Abbott and Heather Crowe didn’t get along in the first place, so she was not going to help them at all.

After rejecting them, she blacklisted all their calls.

This left the Crowe family in complete panic.

All their meddling had not only cost Zac his job but also the internship spot for Anna Crowe, the second eldest.

The most anxious of all was Darius Crowe. His condiment and dry goods store’s main client was the Reverie Inn.

Now fully owned by Lois Abbott, the Reverie Inn notified him the next morning that they no longer needed his deliveries, and Darius Crowe’s store immediately lost all its business.

The family sat in the living room with dismal looks on their faces.

“Mom, why don’t we go apologize to Lois Abbott?” Darius Crowe suggested. Jasmine Lampe’s brows shot up in anger, “Apologize to that little girl? In your dreams!”

Charlotte Simmons followed suit, persuading, “Mom, our condiment store can hardly hold on. We don’t have any income now. What will we eat and drink in the future?”

“I… I don’t know,” Jasmine Lampe snorted.

For her, an elder, to apologize to her granddaughter was a loss of face she couldn’t afford.

Asthton Crowe sighed, “Forget it, I’ll go apologize to them.”

“Dad…”

Seeing Asthton Crowe looking as if he had aged ten years, the Crowe family felt a twinge of heartache, but what choice did they have after bringing it upon themselves?

Jasmine Lampe’s defiance faded, and she grumbled, “Then let’s go together, it’s just an apology after all…”

The family drove to the Reverie Inn and found Lois Abbott.

Asthton Crowe got straight to the point, “Lois, about what happened before… we were wrong. After all, we’re family, don’t take it to heart.”

Lois Abbott’s face was cold as she said, “Sorry, but please be clear, I have no blood relation with you and not a bit of kinship, so don’t talk to me about family.”

Jasmine Lampe’s face turned white, and she gave a forced smile, “Lois, your granny was wrong before, I’m old, so don’t be as petty as me.
