Leanne Richards watched Shannon Richards cry, feeling even more guilty, and couldn’t bother getting angry. She quickly said:
"Shannon, don’t cry. This isn’t your aunt’s fault; it’s that Helen lendy. If she hadn’t refused to give that card, I wouldn’t have had a conflict with her. She purposely fell down the stairs, stirring trouble between and your cousin, which is why he went after your dad."
She didn’t feel she did anything wrong and spoke with confidence.
"Your cousin knows that the Richards Clan is my weak spot, which is why he keeps targeting the Richards Clan. Shannon, your aunt really has no intention of harming the Richards Clan. The Richards Clan is my birth family, your dad is my brother. How could I wrong him?"
Watching Shannon Richards cry made her both anxious and uneasy.
"It’s all Helen lendy who incited your cousin—everything is that Fox Spirit Helen lendy’s fault..."
"What card?"
Shannon Richards stopped crying, impatiently interrupting Leanne Richards’ explanation, "What card do you want from Helen lendy? What do you lack that you need Helen lendy to give you?"
Shannon Richards now had her sights set on climbing up the Smith Family ladder, naturally inclined to speak on behalf of Helen lendy.
But Leanne Richards hadn’t thought that far ahead. Afraid that Shannon Richards might complain to her brother, she hurriedly explained:
"On your cousin’s wedding day, Edward Smith gave Helen lendy a gold card, which is the key to Smith Family real estate properties."
Hearing this, Shannon Richards felt a stirring in her heart.
The Smith Family real estate gold card is very famous, and many know what this card represents.
Edward Smith giving such a card at the drop of a hat shows how solid his foundation is.
Thinking this way only reinforced her determination to latch onto Edward Smith.
A casual wedding gift is already properties worth billions, maybe tens of billions; being Edward Smith’s wife would be like having a mountain of untold wealth.
By then, wouldn’t the Richards Clan be able to advance further?
Even if the Richards Clan went bankrupt, if Dad had a son-in-law like Edward Smith, he could live his life doing nothing at all.
Shannon Richards remained expressionless, just watching Leanne Richards continue to speak.
"I know about your dad being robbed at the New Horse Hotel, and I was worried, so I wanted to give him a house..."
"So you set your sights on my sister-in-law?"
Shannon Richards interrupted Leanne Richards’ explanation with a cold smile, even changing how she referred to Helen lendy.
But at that mont, Leanne Richards was only focused on defending herself and didn’t notice Shannon Richards’ sudden change in attitude towards Helen lendy.
"Auntie, you’re truly sothing. That house was a gift from Edward Smith to my sister-in-law. Why should it be given to you? Because she didn’t give it to you, you pushed her down the stairs, how could you... be like this?"
She wanted to call her shaless but reconsidered her words.
"I’m her mother-in-law. What’s wrong with asking her for things? As a daughter-in-law, shouldn’t she be showing respect to ?"
Leanne Richards spoke with conviction, showing no sense of sha.
"Since she beca a daughter-in-law of the Hall Family, her things are the Hall Family’s things. As a mother-in-law, do I have a problem taking things from the Hall Family?"
Shannon Richards couldn’t help but roll her eyes internally.
Standing in opposition to Leanne Richards, she realized her aunt was shaless beyond belief.
"Auntie, it doesn’t matter if it’s now or in the past, any mother-in-law with a shred of decency wouldn’t covet her daughter-in-law’s things. You really... really opened my eyes."
