George left, and Jessica linked arms with Lilian.

"Mom, what do you think Wendy has on George? What kind of leverage does she hold over hirn?"

Lilian smiled, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction. "Jessica, that's not something we need to worry about. All you need to know is that Wendy is no match for you. She'll end up being nothing more than George's plaything"

Jessica smirked. In her mind, Wendy-coming from the countryside-was nothing more than a match for someone like George. What right did she have to hold the position of Mrs. Hawk?

Jessica praised, "Mom, you're brilliant!"

Lilian's eyes shone brightly. "Jessica, your dad hasn't been home for several nights now. Why don't you call him and ask him to come home? He always does what you say."

Harry really did treat Jessica like a little princess. When she asked him to do something, he'd never defy her.

Jessica nodded. "I'll do it, Mom. I'll call him right now and make sure he comes home."

She took out her phone and dialed the number.

Lilian felt at ease. Without Wendy standing in her way, her future looked much brighter.
