My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy)
Chapter 139 A Storm on the Dining Table

"I'm so angry. I'm so angry." On returning to her room, Sophia casually threw the jade bracelet that Grandma Eva had given her onto the carpet. She even trampled on it. "What's wrong, my darling? Who pissed you off?" William pulled Sophia into his embrace.

"People in your family are so annoying. I was the first who married into your family, but your stepmother gave Amy the jade bracelet that belongs to the family's matriarch. Your grandmother gave me this stupid jade bracelet as if it were precious. Is she trying to make a fool of me?" Sophia punched William in the chest with anger.

"What? The matriarch's jade bracelet was given to Amy? This is truly outrageous. No wonder you're angry." William was also very angry. Didn't they say that everything would be fair? There was nothing fair in this. That jade bracelet was worth millions of dollars. Cathy just gave it away, and they didn't even know it.

"Yeah, look at that stupid bracelet. Take it away from me. I don't want to see it anymore." Sophia kicked the bracelet again.

William picked up the bracelet from Grandma Eva and took a look. Although it wasn't as valuable as the jade bracelet of the matriarch, it was still worth hundreds of thousands.

"This jade bracelet is acceptable. It looks pretty good." William comforted his wife.

"Take it away. Don't show it in front of me. Even though our White Group is bankrupt, you can't fool me with such a shitty thing." Sophia pushed away the jade bracelet in William's hand, and it fell to the ground again.

"Alright, alright, I'll take it away. Away." William picked up the bracelet again and put it elsewhere. He carried Sophia to bed.

"Amy, did you see Sophia's look afterwards? She must be pissed off. It's so funny." Hilary held Amy's arm and laughed wildly.

"Look at you. Is it that funny? Look at your wrinkles from laughing." Amy touched Hilary's face and said to her. Sure enough, Hilary quickly stopped laughing.

"Is that so? I've always thought my skin isn't as good as yours." Hilary nervously touched her own skin.

"No, I was just joking. Let's go. Cathy is still waiting for us." After coming out of Grandma Eva's room, Hilary dragged Amy to a secluded place and had enough laughs there.

"Oh, yes, I forgot that she is still waiting for us." Hilary followed Amy to replace Cathy.

Although Grandma Eva did not like Amy very much, Amy did not care too much. She had to work during the day anyway, so she would only see Grandma Eva for a little while at night. It was Cathy who had to suffer.

Cathy had waited for Amy and Hilary for a long time. She was afraid that her children would suffer a loss. Grandma Eva had always been hostile to Cathy, so she wouldn't be nice to Cathy's children, especially Amy.

"Mom, we're back." Hilary and Amy came back hand in hand. Seeing Cathy, Hilary ran into her arms and kissed her.

"How is it? Your grandmother didn't make things difficult for you, did she?" Cathy saw that their looks were normal.

"Is that possible? Amy and I are tired from helping her make the bed. But she only talked to Sophia, saying that Sophia was the most capable and obedient. She even gave Sophia a bracelet." Hilary complained to Cathy.

"Oh? It seems that your grandmother is very rich, giving a bracelet at her will." Cathy was amused. 'Has she come to the Carter's mansion to show off her wealth? The Carter family in the R City and the Cameron family in City L are both the locally richest people, so she's literally teaching one's grandmother to suck eggs.'

"Yes. I can't stand Sophia's complacent look, so I asked Amy why she didn't wear her jade bracelet. Sophia was so pissed off. I couldn't stop laughing at her look." Thinking about Sophia's expression, Hilary fel satisfied.

"That's right, Amy, put on the bracelet I gave you. We the Carter family have a more precious jade bracelet." Cathy also felt satisfied. 'It's ridiculous for that old lady to show off her wealth here.'

"Mom, I'm afraid it's not a good idea. I don't want to break it while wearing it." Amy said worriedly. Her jade bracelet looked very good, but she couldn't bear to wear it.

"It's fine. How can it be so delicate? Just wear it." Cathy also wanted to vent her anger. 'My daughter-in-law can't be inferior to other people's daughters-in-law!'

Persuaded by the mother and daughter, Amy agreed to wear the jade bracelet starting the next day.

Since the food was prepared, Halbert asked Sophia to invite Grandma Eva over for dinner.

The whole family gathered in the dining room, and the atmosphere was very lively.

There weren't many members in Garry Carter's family. He was Halbert's younger brother. He and his wife had one son and one daughter. In contrast, in Halbert's family, there were many people, who took more than half of the seats.

Grandma Eva did not like Cathy, and she liked Janice, Garry's wife, even less. The old lady was very snobbish. Although she did not like Cathy, she liked the Cameron family's money.

In contrast, Janice spent a lot while she didn't have any money, and she was neither beautiful nor sweet. Therefore, Grandma Eva almost said nothing to Janice.

Cathy had arranged the dishes on the table, which catered to everyone's taste. In this regard, Cathy was very thoughtful.

Grandma Eva and Grandpa John sat together. Only then did the two of them meet.

"You call this a dish? It's so salty." Grandma Eva took a bite of fried whitebait with scrambled eggs and commented.

Then she ate a piece of meat and belittled it for being too greasy. Anyway, she complained about every bite she took. Even Grandpa John couldn't listen to her anymore.

"If you don't want it, then don't eat it. So much nonsense. I think they're all delicious and the arrangements are very good." Grandpa John scolded Grandma Eva.

When Grandma Eva heard her husband's words, she stopped. However, she didn't have any good expression as she ate.

"Mom, it's probably been a long time since you've eaten our family's food, so you're not used to it. Our food is arranged by Cathy every day, and we all love it." At this time, Halbert also spoke up for his wife. A woman's position in the family was determined by her husband instead of other people.

"What did I say? I just expressed my opinions, then all of you are blaming me. Do you despise me? I'm an old woman from the countryside, so I'm not used to the city food. Is that so? Really, my husband despises me, and my son too. I won't eat anymore!" Hearing Halbert's words, Grandma Eva threw her chopsticks on the dining table and stood up angrily.00000
