The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

If she let Hannah stay, it might somewhat affect her mood. But just as Wendy said, she would also have an extra helper in her prime age.

In that case, she would be naturally relieved from the pressure of caring for her son and grandson. She might be able to feel much more relaxed.

That was also the most economical choice for the family. Wendy wouldn't need to rent a place for Hannah. They would need to feed an extra mouth in the family, but the cost increase could be kept minimal.

If she refused to let Hannah stay, Wendy would rent a place for Hannah instead. Wouldn't that cost another two to three thousand dollars a month?

Considering that Hannah might separate their meals later, their spending on food will increase substantially as well. It would be more than just feeding a mouth.

Having a few thousand dollars less monthly would greatly impact their quality of life.

As Lady Wilson thought of that, she gave in despite her anger. "Hannah, I'll let you in this time for Wendy's sake. However, you must be honest and responsible to the family from now on. Understand?" Hannah was very glad to hear that. She was so thrilled

and made her incoherent. She hurriedly nodded and said, "Thank you, Mom. I... I know... I know my place. I'll be honest and responsible, and take care of the housework!"

Christopher sighed and said nothing. He became softhearted and felt guilty for Hannah's miserable experience.

Wendy felt relieved to see her family's acceptance.

The truth was, her mother Hannah had contacted her two days ago.

Hannah's younger brother and sister-in-law had chased Hannah out in a hurry after her mother's death. They did not want her to stay, for fear that she would fight for their inheritance.

Hannah was driven out of her family's home and left with nowhere to go. She couldn't think of any other options other than to call her daughter for help.

After all, she knew that her

mother-in-law and husband hated

her to the bone. Meanwhile, her son Harold was still bedridden from his bad injury. He wouldn't be able to do much even if he wanted to help. She had no other choice but to put her hopes on her daughter.

Fortunately, Wendy retrieved her previous phone's sim chip. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to call anyone or reach out to anyone for help.

Wendy did blame her mother at first. After all, her mother ran away with all their family's savings. She couldn't simply forgive Hannah for what she had done.

However, her mindset changed after

she received Charlie's help. Charlie

vel

appointed her to be in charge of Mallow Stenhouse Etiquette Corporation. Since then, her thoughts, worldview, and values had changed dramatically.

She was no longer as vain and shallow as before. Instead, she became obsessed with earning money through hard work. Not only that, but she learned to be more patient and tolerant with the people and things happening around her.

When she learnt of her mother's difficulties, she did not hesitate and told Wendy to come back to Aurous Hill immediately.

She couldn't sit idly by and watch as her mother suffered. Therefore, she came up with two solutions.

If her father and grandmother could accept her mother's return, the family would live together. In that case, their estrangements would gradually go away over time.

If they were to reject her mother, it was fine. After all, Wendy was capable of providing her mother a stable life.

Fortunately, her grandmother and father allowed her mother to stay with them. It was the best solution for Wendy.

Elaine felt a little sorrowful when she saw Hannah's overwhelming gratitude and tears falling like rain.

She couldn't help thinking to herself, "If I didn't have my good son-in-law Charlie, my status in the Wilson family would've been far worse than Hannah's. I wonder how much the old lady would humiliate me..."
