"Dad, is this okay?" Jensen was worried.

"There's nothing wrong. You can go home now. Alice has never been to our house. Take her to have a look."

"Oh, okay." Jensen did not refuse. "What about you?"

"I'll be out for a few minutes," Nelson said. "Go back and get something. Wait for me at home. Don't leave if I'm not back."

"Alright."

Soon, Jensen took Alice to the Charm family's house.

As soon as she entered, Alice looked at the vegetables in the garden and was very surprised.

"So many vegetables?"

"My father planted them," Jensen answered.

"No wonder your father is so easy-going. He really loves life a lot," Alice said, "People who plant vegetables and flowers have a lot of love in them."

"Yes." They talked and laughed. Jensen asked again, "What do you think of my father?"

"He's very nice." Alice said with a smile, "Uncle is very reasonable and considerate towards us. He is really kind and I'm really touched."

"What about my mother?" Jensen stood in the yard and asked Alice.

Alice was stunned and asked, "Can I not answer?"

"Two of us are the only ones at home. It's okay for you to speak freely." Jensen didn't think it was a big deal, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Alice was also very sincere. "If you really want me to compare both of them, I just want to say that the difference is like heaven and earth."

"My father is too easy-going and my mother is too harsh, right?"

Alice nodded. "When I see your mother, I can't help but feel chilly in my hands and feet. When I saw your father I was nervous at first, then I forgot about it later. There is a word that can be used to describe that kind of feeling; he's just like a spring breeze."

"Thank you for giving my dad such a high evaluation." "I'm not exaggerating. I'm sincere about it," Alice said. "I truly feel that I'm a hundred times more confident than I was before."

At least there was an elder who welcomed her into this family. On the other hand, she thought that it would take time for Jensen's mother to accept her.

"Come, let's go in and have a look at my room." Jensen said, "Since my mother is not at home, relax and take a look."

"If your mother is at home, I wouldn't dare to come here," Alice said. "I will get a headache."

They opened the door and went in.

However, as soon as they entered, the two of them almost jumped in fright. They saw Rosalie sitting on the sofa and looking at them with a livid expression, her eyes burning with anger. Alice was stunned as she looked at Rosalie who was sitting on the sofa. Why did she come back?

Jensen was also dumbfounded.

"Mom, why did you come back?" Jensen frowned. "Did you force yourself to leave the hospital again?"

"Aunty!" Alice also quickly greeted.

"You don't want to come if I'm at home?" Rosalie looked at Alice coldly and said sarcastically, "You thought I'd care if you come?"

It was hard for Alice to parry.

After all, she was not used to quarrelling with her elders.

Besides, the two of them had been far too impudent in the courtyard earlier. They had been so relaxed when talking about Rosalie.

Alice admitted her defeat.

However, looking at Rosalie, she was still very cautious and her whole body instantly tensed up.

"Mom, be polite," Jensen said.

"B*stard." Rosalie frowned, and her cold stare shot out from her fiery eyes. "This is my house. Why should I be polite?" Seeing his mother talking in this manner, Jensen didn't bother with her. Instead, he pulled Alice to turn around and leave.

Alice grabbed Jensen's hand and shook her head.

Leaving like this would only anger Rosalie even more.

She stopped Jensen from leaving.

"Wait for Uncle. He said that if he doesn't come back, we can't go," Alice said in a soft voice.

Hearing this, Rosalie flew into a rage. She yelled at Alice, "Who do you think you are?

How dare you come into my house? Who do you think is welcoming you?"

Alice frowned and said, "Uncle welcomed me, Aunty. Uncle just said so."

"That's my husband. He listens to me." Rosalie's eyes widened in anger. This father and son actually had a meal with this woman. Rosalie felt as though her territory had been invaded. She yelled, "He welcomes you. Even if he does, he has to ask me if I agree. This home is mine."

"Mom, this is Dad's service welfare room." Jensen said, "You have the right to live in it, but you don't have the right to everything."

Alice also suddenly understood and said, "Half of this is Uncle's. I've come for that half."

Alice rendered Rosalie speechless in an instant. This was too infuriating for her.

Jensen's eyes sank. He didn't expect his mother to leave the hospital by force again. She didn't care about her health at all.

Rosalie trembled, then gritted her teeth and shouted, "Get out, get out! Don't you understand? I tell you to get out. You can forget about becoming my daughter-in-law!"

Alice truly felt that Rosalie would grow frantic the moment she saw her. She also felt helpless, but this time, Rosalie's words had once again made her feel quite embarrassed and annoyed.

She thought of Nelson's words, "Learn the hard way."

Alice stood there and waited for Rosalie to finish shouting. Then, she said gently, "What are you roaring about? Do you want to compete to become the loudest?"

"Get the hell out of here!" Rosalie scolded.

Alice remained calm and asked in return, "Aunty, I don't know how to leave. Why don't you demonstrate?"

Rosalie was at a loss for words.

"I was very shocked when you said 'get lost'. Not long ago, you even asked me about my upbringing. I thought that someone who could say 'get lost' was indeed not well educated." Alice looked at Rosalie as she enunciated each word clearly. She was no longer being polite to Rosalie. "Perhaps I don't agree with what you're thinking, but I'm in a relationship with your son after all. If you're not satisfied, I'll at least respect you and not scold you."

Rosalie's face was pale and she was once again at a loss for words. She flew into a rage out of humiliation.

She shouted again, "I don't welcome you. Leave."

This time, Rosalie did not dare to scold Alice anymore. She was afraid that she could not handle her and would get rebutted.

Alice, of course, also felt the change in Rosalie's attitude. She muttered in her heart, "It seems that Jensen's mother really does need to learn the hard way."

Alice, on the other hand, was no longer that afraid. She opened her mouth calmly and said, "I'm here by invitation. I'm sorry, but you don't have the right to chase me away."

"You, you!" Rosalie pointed at her. "You're so thick-skinned!"

"Aunty, we are the same." Alice became bolder. "We have argued with each other before. When I don't rebuke you, it doesn't mean that I am easy to bully. You are thick-skinned. You and I are the same. I won't be separated from Jensen. You can't control it either, so don't be so thick-skinned as to scold me.

If she didn't like Alice before, now Rosalie looked at her as if she were a thorn in her eye. Alice had poked her sore spot.

"Enough!" Rosalie turned to Jensen who had been silent for a long time. "Do you feel good about having such a woman going against

me?"

Jensen looked at his mother and said, "Mom, I thought you were a polite person, not an unreasonable person. But what you have done in the past few days has caused me to be unable to understand and respect you. I'm sorry. If Alice was not strong, she would not be capable of protecting herself. That is the dereliction of duty as a policeman's wife. I think it is good for her to protect herself from getting bullied by others."
