Melanie smiled wryly. Her hands were folded in front of her chest. “Do you realize who you are talking to? | am your mother-in- law, the mother of the man who supports you and your children. You should not talk to me like that. Your position is not higher.”
“So? Can someone with a higher state do anything she likes? Including things that harm other people?”
The corners of Kara’s lips twitched slightly. “Sorry, Mom. | can’t let that happen in this house, especially with the twins who need role models. | want them to grow up well, without being polluted by bad influences.”
“You're calling me a bad influence?” Melanie’s tone rose drastically. “Aren't you?”
Melanie’s breath suddenly roared. “How dare you mock me? You should be grateful for living in such a magnificent house, be submissive and obedient to us. But it turns out? You're so selfish, shameless, and ungrateful.”
“It seems I’m not the one who's shameless here, but you, Mom. as a parent should set a good example, not cause a fuss.”
Melanie stared wide eyed. “You don’t realize where you are now? my daughter’s room! You're the one who came here and caused a fuss. Not me!”
“What do you actually want from us?” Kara interrupted, tired of the drawn-out argument. “Ever since you arrived here, you have shown your dislike for us. Do you deliberately make us feel uncomfortable? You don’t secretly hope that we would leave this house, right?”
Melanie snorted. She wanted to confess, but the door was not closed. The plan could be ruined if someone recorded it from outside.
“What did we do wrong, Mom? Why don’t you like us? Even the twins? They are so innocent. Your sons’ flesh and blood. Why do you hate them too?”
Kara’s voice started to get hoarse. Her face was wrinkled with tiredness. aus,
“Can't we just make peace? If you and Barbara stop bothering us, there won’t be arguments like this anymore. We can live peacefully in this house.”
Barbara secretly glanced at Melanie. She was curious what answer her mother would give. Instead of answering, Melanie leaned her back against the door until it was completely closed. “You want to make peace?” Melanie’s eyes narrowed.
Kara nodded. “Yes.”
Melanie’s lips pursed. The glint in her eyes suggested something What can you offer if we are willing to accept you in this house?”
“You can rely on us in all conditions. Isn’t that what family’s for?”
Melanie shook her head slightly. “It's not comparable.”
“Then what do you want?”
“Hand over all the shares you own.
Barbara widened her eyes. She didn’t expect that her mother could immediately target something big.
Meanwhile, Kara fell silent. Her eyes trembled as she observed her mother-in-law’s cunning expression. “You want my shares?”
“Yes.” Melanie grinned.
“Why?”
One of Melanie’s eyebrows furrowed. “All of that is too much for you. to have. If you want me to consider you a daughter-in-law, just be Frank’s wife. Don’t control other things either. That’s greed.”
Kara froze again. Her gaze and eyebrows both lowered. “That’s too much for me?” she muttered, repeating a few words.
Melanie widened her smile. “Yes. | know you not only own Savior shares, but also shares in other companies. Maybe you are still enthusiastic about managing them now, but later... when your children grow up, I’m sure you will be overwhelmed.”
“But Grandpa believed in me. He trusted me.”
Kara’s voice was unclear, but Melanie still startled. “What did you say? H
Kara straightened her face. “Grandpa believed in me. He believed that | can manage all the shares. That's why he handed over the shares to me.”
Melanie’s face dimmed again. Her hands clenched into fist reject my offer?”
Suddenly, Kara stepped forward. “I don’t think that’s an offer, request. So, sorry, Mom. | have to maintain Grandpa’s trust in
Melanie’s cheeks twitched violently. The look in her eyes was sca
“As | thought, you are after Frank’s treasure. Otherwise, why would you hold on to his grandfather's inheritance so tightly? You are an ungrateful materialistic daughter-in-law indeed.”
Kara smiled wryly. Her head shook gracefully.
“| don’t care what you think of me, Mom. What's clear is that | never asked for a penny from them. The love and wealth | got came
naturally. Maybe that’s the fruit of trust.”
Kara glanced at Barbara briefly. The girl's attention was no longer on her phone. She was now gaping, like a child watching a circus act.
“Glad you've recovered.”
Asecond later, Kara turned back to face Melanie. “Now please excuse me. | have to continue working. If | neglect my duties, Frank might get suspicious. | don’t want to bother explaining our
conversation to him.”
Melanie gritted her teeth. She was annoyed, but still made way. Just as Kara opened the door, she muttered, “Frank is my son. A man remains his mother’s belonging till the end. The bond between us is much stronger.”
Kara didn’t pay attention. She continued walking without looking back. For her, what has passed cannot be changed. She just needed to be more vigilant in the future.
“Kara ....”

Chapter“Mom,” Kara cupped Susan’s hand, “we don’t have to be silent. We have to speak out so that those people think twice if they want to bully us again.”
Susan pondered for a moment. “Then what about Frank?”
“I'm sure he’s on the right side. Mom, don’t worry. Our relationship will not be affected by other people, even if it’s his own family.”
Susan sighed faintly. Her anxiety was too wild to tame.
“Now, just thinking about your garden. The sooner it’s finished the better. | hope Frank doesn’t find out about his mother’s behavior. He'll definitely be very angry. Their relationship could get worse.”
Susan’s gaze turned pitying. Cupping Kara’s cheek, she gave her a warm smile. “Thank you for defending me. I’m so sorry you have to risk your husband's happiness.”
Kara shook her head slowly. “I’m just carrying out the duty of a wife and a daughter. Just it.”
“But it's heavy and noble.” Susan kissed Kara’s forehead. After that, she grabbed Kara’s finger. “Let’s go back to the greenhouse. You have to make your hands a little rough so Frank doesn’t get suspicious.”
“Do you want to tell him that | have worked hard to clear up the rat attack?” Kara laughed amusedly. “Yeah, a very big and annoying rat.”
At that time, Kara was able to forget her annoyance. However, when Frank approached her at the dressing table in the evening, the feeling came back.
“Did something happen to you?”
Kara’s eyebrows arched high. Her hand stopped moving the brush.
“Something?” she looked at Frank in the reflection of the mirror. Her breath held, waiting for a reaction.
Frank nodded gently. “You’ve been quiet since this afternoon. You
haven't even told me what happened that you had to go home early. Even the twins were worried about you.” He took the brush from Kara’s hand and began to smooth her hair.” Are you upset?”
