NovelEnglishChapter 71 Adah looked at Karen with a puzzled expression, full of doubt. Had Karen gone crazy with longing for a granddaughter-in-law so much that she was seeing things? Karen chuckled and repeated, “I said my future granddaughter-in-law gave the prescription to me.” “No way, Karen, what granddaughter-in-law are you talking about?” Adah queried.
“I'm going to change my clothes, and then we'll talk,” Karen responded.
A few minutes later, Karen emerged in a new outfit.
Adah was stunned. “Oh, my goodness! What on earth are you wearing?” Karen was in tattered rags that would make a street beggar cry a river of sorrow. It was as if someone at hhad mistreated Karen.
With a smile, Karen said, “How else am | supposed to get a granddaughter-in-law?” After the ordeal with Rebecca, Karen had becmore cautious in her hunt for the perfect match for her grandson, hence the deliberate beggar disguise.

And, believe it or not, the tactic was surprisingly effective.
Poverty was like a magic mirror for revealing true natures. All manner of fiends and fakes would show their true colors before it.
Disguising herself, Karen witnessed many things usually hidden from view.
Adah was helpless. “Are you sure you want to go out looking for a granddaughter-in-law dressed like that?” Wouldn't that scare any potential match away? As Karen sprayed on ssunscreen, she insisted, “Not everyone is like Rebecca, you know. Lettell you, Adah. | met this young lady who is just wonderful. She’s so beautiful, kind, and has a voice like an angel, and she didn’t despise my tattered clothes. I like her!” In her youth, Karen was a renowned beauty. It was rare for someone to be deemed beautiful by her standards.
Even Rebecca, the campus belle, only received a lukewarm ‘not bad‘ from Karen.
That piqued Adah’s curiosity. “Is she as beautiful as you say?” she asked.
Just then, the TV was playing the latest popular series, and Karen pointed at the lead actress on the screen, saying, “She’s a hundred times, no, a thousand times more beautiful than this girl!” The actress in question was Carlotta, a nsynonymous with celestial beauty. She had taken the entertainment world by storm with her stunning looks and was dubbed by the media as 1/2 11:25 Chapter 71 Luxphinia’s top beauty.
In the entire showbiz industry, no one could match Carlotta’s beauty.

Somewhat incredulously, Adah said, “Karen, that’s a bit of an exaggeration! If someone is that beautiful, she'd be an angel!” Karen replied with cocky pride, “You're right, Adah. My future granddaughter-in-law is indeed an angel!” Adah was skeptical. She wondered if Karen was making things up, letting her imagination run wild.
“Karen, do you know who Carlotta is? She’s Luxphinia’s number-one beauty!” “Her?” Karen said dismissively, “She’s considered Luxphinia’s top beauty? If she’s the top beauty, my granddaughter-in-law is the unrivaled beauty of the entire realm!” Continuing her thought, Karen added, “My future granddaughter-in-law isn’t just a pretty face. She's skilled in medicine, too! Can this so-called ‘beauty’ claim the same? If my future granddaughter-in-law were to join the entertainment world, this Carlotta wouldn't stand a chance.” “It’s Carlotta, for God's sake!” Adah protested.
“So what?” “Oh, please, Karen,” Adah protested.
“There you go. In any case, this Carlotta is not as beautiful as my granddaughter-in-law!” Adah had to admit defeat. Karen's wit was unbeatable.
