Why were they here? 2 Claire hurried forward before she asked, "Mom! Dad! Why are you here?" Elaine replied, "Your aunt and uncle called us to inform us of their intention to check out the houses at Thompson First as they're intending to buy a house here. They invited us here to help them look around today." In fact, Elaine glared at Charlie as she said this sentence because she felt a little annoyed at this time. 2 Elaine did not want to chere today because she had just gotten into an argument with her daughter last night as she wanted to move out of their house. Unexpectedly, she actually received a phone call from Christopher, asking her and her husband to cover to check out the properties with them. 1 What did they want them to check out? Weren't they just trying to show off the fact that they were going to purchase a house at Thompson First? 1 Elaine felt very uncomfortable at this tbut she did not dare to reject her elder brother's invitation.

Therefore, she rushed over with Jacob as soon as she received the phone call. 6 This was also the reason why she was so upset with Charlie. If she had a capable son-in-law, then she would be able to live in Thompson First! 2 At this time, Elaine looked at Hannah with a flattering expression on her face as she said, "Sister-in-Law, you're really amazing! I cannot believe that you are buying a house in Thompson First! I'm really very envious of you right now. You are actually buying the two hundred and forty square meter house in Thompson First. Do you know how luxurious that is? I really don't know if my family will ever be able to afford to live in such a luxurious house in this lifetime!" 6 Even though she was very upset with her elder brother and his family, Elaine knew that she had to flatter and butter up to them.

Harold's mother, Hannah, had a very ugly expression On her face at this time. She glared at Elaine before she said in a cold manner, "Elaine, what do you mean by this? Are you looking down on us?" 4 Hannah was so furious that she felt as though she was going to explode anytime! In fact, the reason why they had called Jacob and Elaine over here today was because she wanted them to witness her purchasing the first grade high rise condominium unit at Thompson First. This way, she would be able to act smug and cocky in front of them.

However, she would never have expected Elaine's son-in-law to be so capable. He actually owned the biggest villa in Thompson First! 2 Elaine was so envious and she was already dying of jealousy. 1 Now, Elaine was deliberately complimenting her for buying a two hundred and forty square meter house. Was she trying to mock her? 1 Her family was moving into a villa that was worth at least one hundred million dollars! How could Elaine say that she was envious of her? Moreover, Elaine was going on and on about how she could never afford to live in such a luxurious place. Was she being sarcastic? 1 Elaine did not know what was going on. Therefore, she tried to flatter Hannah as soon as she saw her but Hannah actually thought that she was looking down 0 n her. Elaine felt seriously wronged at this time. Why would she look down on them? Why would she be praising them if she really looked down on them? 4 Elaine hurriedly bit the bullet as she continued flattering Hannah, "Oh! Sister-in-Law, how could I ever compare to you? It would be the sas comparing a candle to the sun! Why would I ever look down on you? You have such a good life and you will be moving into Thompson First soon! Look at me. I'm still living in a small and broken house. Do you know how rotten and dilapidated our house is?

After that, Christopher glared at his younger brother, Jacob before he said, "Jacob, do you still regardas your brother? Do you have any respect left for your mother? How could you keep something like this to yourself? You own a villa here and you did not even tell us about it?" 5
