With a smile, Jacob exclaimed, “Finally, you’ve made up your mind! Let’s go then, my pants are already on!”

After Elaine gave up on her firecracker idea, Wendy quickly rushed to the police station and bailed out Christopher, Harold, and the Lady.

Earlier in the day, while Wendy was attending a meeting at her company, she received news that her mother had been arrested.

She immediately left the meeting and rushed home, but before she could even make it there, she received a call from the police station asking her to come and pick up her family members.

So she quickly made her way to the station, completed the necessary formalities, and then picked up her father, brother, and grandmother.

As they drove back home, Wendy was behind the wheel, with the Lady in the passenger seat, while Christopher and Harold were buckled up in the back.

The Lady was crying and muttering to herself, “The Wilson family is finished… We’re done for.”

Tears welled up in Harold’s eyes as he spoke through gritted teeth, “That wretched Elaine! She’s ruined our family! Our chance to rise again has been shattered!”

Christopher echoed his sentiment with a cold, hard edge in his voice.

“Once I’m back on my feet, I’m going to destroy her.

If I don’t take revenge, I won’t be able to live with myself.”

Harold immediately chimed in, “Count me in, Dad! I want her dead!”

Wendy abruptly brought the car to a halt on the side of the road and scolded them both, “Enough! Have you both forgotten how you ended up paralyzed? How dare you even think of seeking revenge against her?”

The mood in the car was heavy as the Lady cried and Harold and Christopher expressed their anger towards Elaine.

However, Wendy’s words hit them hard and they realized their hypocrisy.

It was their own vengeful actions that led to their current state of paralysis.

They had attempted to take revenge on Elaine, but Cynthia Wade happened to be there as well and they ended up with their legs shattered.

As Harold reflected on their past actions, he couldn’t help but express his dissatisfaction, “I can’t let this go! Our family could have become billionaires! We could have been worth billions in a few years! But Elaine ruined everything.

How can I ever be reconciled?”

Wendy leaned forward, her expression deadly serious.

“Brother, you need to stop daydreaming.

I warned you from the beginning that Mom’s live stream was a ticking time bomb, waiting to blow up in our faces.

And the longer we wait, the more devastating the explosion will be.”

Harold scoffed, “I don’t see why we should be worried.

There are plenty of people out there selling sob stories and hawking their wares on live streams.

None of them have been arrested.”

Wendy’s eyes blazed with fury, “You’re missing the point, Harold.
