Chapter 1626
Old Mrs. Hammer was quick to react, instantly getting fired up: “Who are you to send Curtis to jail?” “Mom!” Curtis
was scared out of his wits, yelling at Old Mrs. Hammer, “Can you not stir up trouble?”
“It’s alright, the clock here has already started ticking. Let her scream.” Rosalynn chuckled briefly, “Old Mrs.
Hammer, I heard you’ve been bragging about Curtis back home. Saying how well he’s doing in H City, that he’s
earned his house and car through hard work. Your friends and family are quite jealous, aren’t they?”
Old Mrs. Hammer was taken aback, “Did you… Did you go to my hometown to dig up dirt on me?”
“Indeed, I know all about what you’ve been up to back home. I’ve met quite a few people who aren’t too fond of
you either. How long do you think it’d take for the whole village to find out if I spilled your secrets?” Rosalynn asked

he’s been selling company resources for profit and is getting jailed for it…”
“You wouldn’t dare!”
“Well, since you say that, let’s give it a try, shall we, Felix?” Rosalynn nodded.
Felix immediately took out his phone and dialed a number. The call was quickly picked up.
Before Old Mrs. Hammer could react, she heard a familiar voice on the other end, “Did you find anything on that
shrew Old Mrs. Hammer?”

“We did, but it’s not actually about her, but her son, Curtis.” Felix responded.
Old Mrs. Hammer immediately panicked: “Sign! We’ll sign!”
Felix didn’t say a word and hung up.
The old lady on the phone was an old friend of Old Mrs. Hammer, one she had grown up with.
They’d alway’s been at odds.
As kids, they’d compete about food and clothes. As adults, about who married better.
For the most part, Old Mrs. Hammer was always one step behind.
She had to be frugal with food and clothes to cater to the men in her family.
Her friend, on the other hand, only had one daughter despite having a large family.
She couldn’t compete with her even in their childhood.
When they grew up, Old Mrs. Hammer initially married well but within a couple of years, her friend’s husband struck
it rich in business.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo add insult to injury, Old Mrs. Hammer had a daughter first. It was only after five to six years that she finally had a
son.
Her friend had two sets of twin boys right off the bat.
However, she didn’t have much luck.
All her sons died young due to illness or accidents. Now, she only has her daughter left who apparently owns a
lucrative waste management company,
But a daughter, no matter how wealthy, would eventually belong to another family, right?
Their relationship hadn’t always been this bitter.
Old Mrs. Hammer kept bringing up the fact that her friend’s sons had all died, which pissed her off and they
became sworn enemies.
In recent years, Old Mrs. Hammer has been living quite comfortably in H City, thanks to Curtis.
She always felt that Curtis was very successful, even more so than her arch–nemesis’s daughter.
If she found out that Curtis’s house and car were all bought by Pauline, and that Curtis was going to jail for it, she’d
surely be laughing her head off!
