Moreover, since he had come to Aurous Hill on his own, his wife was not with him, and this was his opportunity to fool around if he wanted to. If he could take advantage of this opportunity to have some fun with Wendy, that would unmistakably be the best thing that could happen to him.
As he thought about this, Kenneth took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Wendy before he smiled and said, “Miss Wendy, you are so beautiful, so how is it possible that you do not have a boyfriend?”
It would have been better if he had not said this. As soon as he said this sentence, Wendy’s eyes turned red once more, and tears started flowing down her cheeks.
She was feeling very upset and uncomfortable.
The Wilson family was in trouble, and she was going to lose everything that she ever wanted. Gerald treated her like a plague god and was avoiding her at all costs. He was not only refusing to marry her, but he would not even look at her or meet up with her when she asked him to.
She felt so miserable, but it seemed as though her cousin, Claire, was having the time of her life. There were so many wealthy and powerful people who had attended her opening ceremony. So, how could she possibly be compared to her? How could she not feel angry at all?! She felt very annoyed and desperate at this time.
When Kenneth saw that Wendy was crying again, he suddenly felt very distressed. He hurriedly asked, “Oh, why are you crying, Miss Wendy? Why are you crying?”
Lady Wilson quickly replied, “Didn’t I tell you that our family is facing a huge crisis now? Wendy has a very deep affection for the family company and she feels very upset because it seems like the Wilson Group is going to go bankrupt! She has been begging me to find a way to save the company for the past two days, but I am just an old lady, so what could I possibly do to save the company? There is nothing that I can do, and I can only watch in distress as my precious granddaughter cries because she is so upset…”
Kenneth did not even think about it and he said to Wendy, “Miss Wendy, if you need help, please do not hesitate to approach me!
I am quite capable, so why don’t you let me help you instead?”
Lady Wilson was overjoyed when Kenneth said that he would be willing to help the Wilson family.
However, Wendy was not happy at all.
Her focus was not on the Wilson Group whatsoever.
In truth, she did not care about the Wilson Group.
All she wanted was to marry a rich young man so that everyone would be envious of her and look up to her!
Moreover, the Wilson Group was just one of the properties owned by the Wilson family. What did it have to do with her anyway?
What saddened her the most was the fact that Gerald was so indifferent toward her, and she also felt very uncertain about her future.
Wendy had no care about what would happen to the Wilson Group at all!
When she saw how indifferent Wendy was, Lady Wilson hurriedly nudged her before she said, “Wendy, why are you in a daze?
Hurry up and thank Chairman Wilson!”
Wendy was taken aback and looked up before she asked, “Why should I thank him?”
Lady Wilson became angry when she heard this. “Of course you should thank Chairman Wilson because he is willing to help the Wilson Group! Are you stupid?!”
Hearing this response, Wendy blurted out immediately, “I only care about Gerald! I do not care about what is going to happen to the Wilson Group at all!”
“Stupid girl!” Lady Wilson was so angry that she raised her hand and gave Wendy a slap across her face.
Lady Wilson started yelling, “I am already so worried about the future of the Wilson family and the Wilson Group, and yet, the only thing you are worried about now is Gerald from the White family?! You are frustrating me to death! Why can’t you help to relieve my burden instead? You are really so useless!”
Wendy was dumbfounded because her grandmother had slapped her for no reason at all. After a short moment, Wendy cried out loud, “You are insane! Why did you hit me?! What has the Wilson Group got to do with me? I do not even work for the Wilson Group! So, why are you hitting me? If you can hit me, why don’t you go and hit that bitch, Claire, instead?”
Lady Wilson was stunned.
She had never dreamt that Wendy would actually dare to disobey her.
She was just about to lose her temper again but Wendy turned around and ran out of the house.
This…
Lady Wilson was so embarrassed and yelled at Christopher, “Go after her and bring her back here!”
“Okay…” Christopher nodded awkwardly. “I will go after her now.”
Lady Wilson also felt very embarrassed as she looked at Kenneth. “Chairman Wilson, I am truly sorry that you had to witness that. I feel utterly embarrassed. You must think of us as a joke now.”
Kenneth was indeed feeling a little embarrassed at this time. However, he smiled before saying, “I feel that Miss Wendy has been stimulated and triggered by something. What happened?”
“Well…” Lady Wilson sighed before she said, “Don’t mention it. This is all because we have a despicable son-in-law in the Wilson family!”
After that, Lady Wilson confided in Kenneth and told him how Joe had caused Claire and Jacob to disown the Wilson family.
Lady Wilson also blamed Joe for causing the Wilson Group to fall from its former glory, even saying that Joe was responsible for destroying Wendy’s marriage contract with the White family.
However, Lady Wilson did not tell the truth as it was.
The version of the story that she told Kenneth was filled with lies, and she pushed all of the blame to Joe and Jacob’s family.
She said that they had betrayed the Wilson family, and they had even forced her to get on her knees and beg them.
