The First Heir

A few middle-aged women were gathered in Blue Mountain Cafe and could be seen chatting happily.

Martha was very happy that day. She could finally show off in front of her sister and friends. A pleased expression could be seen on her face as she shook the jade bangle on her wrist. She said, “It’s nothing, my son-in-law gave this to me. I heard that it’s made of glassy jade and goes for a few hundred thousand bucks.”

The middle-aged women around her were extremely envious. Their eyes were glued on the bangle on Martha’s wrist.

“Martha, isn’t your son-in-law a well-known piece of garbage? How could he afford it?”

One of the women who had her eyes glued on the jade bangle on Martha’s wrist asked curiously.

“Oh, that kid won the lottery a few days ago. He bought this for me out of filial piety.”

Martha was blatantly lying, yet she was not ashamed of her behavior at all.

On the other hand, Paula scoffed. The other women were unaware of her personality. However, as Martha’s older sister, she understood it very well.

“Why are you so pleased? It’s just a stupid jade bangle. I’ll ask my son-in-law to buy a pair for me later.”

Paula sipped on her coffee. She looked malicious as she rolled her eyes and said.

“Why are you still pretending? What good thing can your useless son-in-law buy? It must be fake!”

Immediately, the air around them changed.
