Chapter-24: second aunt just wants to give me money
Second Aunt Lark naturally agreed readily and walked in front of her most beloved niece in a blink of an eye.
"Jessica Lark, cheer up. You are one of the two famous beauties in Capital. I don't know how many men love you. Are you willing to sink into despair? Listen to me, live well. Only by living can there be hope."
Jessica Lark has been feeling sick all the time. She is worried. "Second aunt, I..." Second Aunt Lark interrupted softly,
"Don't forget, when you were born, the fortune teller said that you were invaluable. I believe this without a doubt, and you should also believe that I will do everything I can to get you out."
She couldn't save the entire family, but by looking for those admirers, she might be able to rescue her niece. My niece is both talented and beautiful, and she will rise to a high position one day. Her words touched Lark Jessica Lark, and she became more energetic.
The second aunt winked at her niece and secretly handed her a sachet. Jessica Lark pinched it gently, and it felt light and fluffy, so it should be a banknote. She quickly hid the sachet, and her wandering heart finally settled down.
After eating and drinking, Sander Lark began to show off, "Brother Wilson, since there is no share for your second branch, do you regret it?" This mouth is really cheap. The second house had nothing, not even a meat pie to eat.
Wilson Lark was used to being treated differently and was not angry. Sander Lark pushed further "Let the Wendy Lark kneel down and admit her fault. Maybe mother will be kind enough to give her something as a reward."
This brought back memories for Old lady Lark, causing her to feel strongly dissatisfied. "Humph, I don't have such an unfilial granddaughter." The second aunt then saw the second family. Hey, they seemed to be in good spirits, much better than the others.
"Mom, what's going on?" Master Sander Lark couldn't wait to complain, "She bullied us in prison, ate alone, and even made my mother faint from anger." The second aunt had been keeping a low profile these days, and had been holding back a lot of anger.
She immediately vented all her anger on Wendy Lark and slapped her, "Today I will teach you a lesson, you disobedient and unfilial boy..."
"Murder..." Wendy Lark dodged the opponent's attack with a slight flash and then screamed. She doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, but she is never afraid of trouble. The whole audience looked over at once, their eyes surprisingly bright, watching the show.
Upon hearing this, Second Aunt Lark's hands froze in the air. Wendy Lark yelled even louder,
"Everyone, come and see. Don't miss it if you pass by. The eldest granddaughter-in-law of Minister Samuel is bullying others by taking advantage of her power. She said she wanted to beat and kill my niece. Whose power is she taking advantage of?"
As soon as these words were spoken, passers-by gathered around, forming three layers inside and three layers outside. Wendy Lark laughed, "The King is kind and generous, he spared my life and you are even more majestic than the King..."
Second Aunt Lark was so frightened that she rushed over to cover her mouth without thinking. "Shut up, don't talk nonsense." She had seen how a single sentence could kill someone without them even noticing.
It was the first time she knew her niece had such ability. Wendy Lark pried her hands apart with force and whispered incoherently, "Two hundred coins, hush money."
(Hush money…?) Second Aunt glared at her fiercely, wishing, "Are you crazy, you damn girl?" Wendy Lark was unhappy, "Five hundred coins." She raised the price as soon as she disagreed with something, and suddenly, she screamed in fear.
"What? Minister Samuel asked you to do this? Why? Does he want to show off that he is more capable than the King? God is so hungry." The whole audience was silent, shocked, stunned, and also faintly excited. Fight, fight! Hurry up!
Second Aunt Lark felt the despair coming towards her, her vision went dark and she really wanted to faint so that she wouldn't have to face everyone's strange looks. This matter would definitely get out, and she didn't even dare to think about her husband's family's reaction.
But she held on, not wanting to faint like that. If she didn't resolve the issue, she would be finished. You will definitely be divorced! She gritted her teeth and lowered her voice and said, "Okay, I promise you, but you have to settle things."
"Give me the money first." Wendy Lark won't give up until she sees the rabbit. The second aunt was so angry that her chest hurt. She endured the humiliation and took out five hundred coins of silver notes and handed it over.
I never expected that one day I would suffer a setback and be controlled by my niece from my mother's side, whom I once looked down upon. It was such a great shame and humiliation. The cowardly brother Wilson actually gave birth to such a cunning daughter.
She underestimated her. In front of everyone, Wendy Lark accepted the banknote generously with a smile on her face. Let everyone open their eyes and see that being released from prison does not mean that you can turn the tables and become the master of your own destiny.
The key point is that it is Old lady Lark. No matter who dares to bully her, she will not be polite. This is called killing the chicken to scare the monkey, and Second Aunt is the chicken.
"It turns out that I heard it wrong. My second aunt just wanted to give me money. I couldn't refuse it. Right, second aunt?"
"Yes." Second Aunt Lark's face flushed red, and she squeezed out a word from between her teeth, which sounded a bit gritted.
