Penelope continued, “You can stop making excuses. I'm not from the city, and | can’t stomach food from outside.
For goodness sake, I'm your elder, Is it such a big deal to ask you to cooksbreakfast? If you refuse, I'll
go talk to your mother-in-law about this!”
She then started groaning, saying that she was so upset that she had a headache. Then, she claimed that she
was dying of hunger. The others heard this and immediately joined in the chorus, criticizing Mindy.
Mindy looked around at the group and saw through their disgusting facade. They probably always banded
together to bully others by taking advantage of their numbers.
“Fine, you w
said.
you want a hcooked breakfast? I'll ask Lionel to make it for you. Just wait a little while,” Mindy
“No, can’t you understand me? | asked you to make it, not Lionel! Men are supposed to earn money, and women
should be in the kitchen. That's just how it is!”
“I heard you, but...” Mindy replied with a smile, “In our household, | make more money than Lionel. | even
bought this villa. By your logic, it is only right that Lionel cooks.”
Bullshit! How could you afford to buy such a big villa?” Penelope’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Mindy simply said, “Well, | did.”
Standing nearby. Theresa bumped into Penelope’s shoulder awkwardly and whispered in a low tone, “I asked
Lionel yesterday. It's true that his wife bought this villa...”

Penelope was stunned. Without another word, Mindy turned and returned to the study.
No way... How could a woman make that much money? And it was enough to buy a huge villa?
Penelope was completely dumbfounded.
Theresa pursed her lips. “I wouldn't cook either if | could make that much money. I'd let my husband do it. Who
would want to be stuck in the kitchen if they were rolling in cash? If you were in her shoes, would you?”
Penelope was at a loss for words.
That was true. If she had that much money, she wouldn't be slaving away in the kitchen to serve her husband.
Miranda returned with breakfast and immediately sensed something was off with the atmosphere at home.
Before she could figure out what had happened, she heard a loud crash coming from the backyard. It was where
Lionel kept his beloved potted plants.
Miranda's eyes twitched as a bad feeling welled up within her.
Sure enough, Lionel’s orchid had been smashed to pieces when she went to check. The other potted plants had
also suffered varying degrees of damage.
Lionel trembled all over, feeling as if his heart was stabbed by a knife. His precious orchid...

He had woken up early and went to bed late in order to care for this specific shoot. He tended to it carefully and
wrote pages of notes regarding his observations.
Now that he had finally got the orchid to bloom, the plant was destroyed by these unruly kids!
The kids were completely oblivious to the gravity of their actions. They even laughed and asked Lionel,”
Uncle Lionel, Isn't this flower pretty? We just picked it for you! Aren’t you happy?”
Miranda glanced at the darkened expression on her father’s face. She was worried that his blood pressure might
spike at any moment.
Fortunately, Lionel had learned to
keep his emotions in gyesage
years obey Eeatrer Although he
dla scold them on the spot, he
certainly couldn't muster up a smile.
Happy? Not at all.
Miranda couldn't bear to watch the situation any longer. She took her laptop and left the house. They just had to
put up with them for one more day.
Miranda could escape the relatives,
but Lionel and Mindy couldn't. Alter
