Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yvette Larson wasnโt going to bother putting up with the James family. Without mincing her words, she told them that they werenโt welcome. ๐๐ณ๐ฆe๐e๐ฏn๐ผัต๐l.๐๐๐
The James family gritted their teeth, but they pretended not to hear her. Otherwise, they wouldโve started a fight with her.
However, they were here to ask the other for a favor, so they couldnโt afford to offend her now.
Yvette Larson glanced around the house, realizing that the living room was filled with the James familyโs members. Yet, she didnโt spot her parents, Diane, or Finn.
โWhere are they?โ Yvette Larson eyed her relatives.
โErโฆ In the kitchen.โ
โTheyโre all in the kitchen?โ?Yvette Larson walked to the kitchen, slightly suspicious, but all she saw was her parents working tirelessly. โWhy are you guys the ones cooking?โ
โDid they wake up on the wrong side of the bed today? Theyโre actually cooking!โ?
โHow could you still have the cheek to say that? Finn got drunk and messed up the living room.โ
โFinn might be drunk, but itโs impossible for him to have made that mess.โ?Yvette Larson naturally wasnโt going to take her motherโs words at face value. โWhereโs Diane then?โ
In the past, Finn Taylor had been in charge of cooking. Later on, they moved to Number One Pacific Heights and handed that task over to Diane Taylor.
Something had to be wrong for her mother to be working in the kitchen.
โIโm angry just thinking about it. That young brat has such a fiery temperโshe went home.โ
โWent home?โ
โYes, Finn made such a huge mess that she said that she wouldnโt clean the area up. She resigned and went home.โ
Yvette Larson sneered.?โMy motherโs stories donโt sound the slightest bit believable.โ?
She turned around, not wanting to listen to her motherโs lies. After that, she returned to her room to see that her husband was indeed drunk.
She sat herself by Finn Taylorโs side and started taking care of him.
In the kitchen, Linda Jamesโs arms ached after preparing only a few dishes. โArgh, that darned Diane Taylor. I donโt want to cook.โ
Her husband glared at her. โHow dare you say that? You were the one who fired her.โ
Linda James nearly burst out into tears. โIt was her fault. She witnessed something she shouldnโt have.โ
Francis Larson sneered. โDo you really believe the nonsense your relatives spouted?โ
Linda James wasnโt dumb, and she knew that it was more than likely sheโd been taken for a ride too. However, what choice did she have?
They were her family, and that was her mom they were talking about. Could she really chase them away?

The next day, Finn Taylor woke up groggily, his leg feeling numb as though it no longer belonged to him.
He glanced at his leg, only to realize that his wife had fallen asleep on his leg.
Heโd been sleeping under covers, while his wife wasnโt. It seemed like she had been taking care of him through the night.
โShe mustโve wanted to take a nap but eventually fell asleep. She probably didnโt expect to fall asleep in this manner.โ?
Just then, Yvette Larson woke up too. She then looked at him emotionally. โYouโre awake?โ
โYes, thanks for taking care of me.โ
โDid you drink too much last night?โ This was the first time her husband had ever gotten drunk. In fact, this was the first time she had ever seen him drink any alcohol.
โMy master came to look for me yesterday, saying that he might never return, so I had a drink with him.โ
Yvette Larson nodded. โDoes your head still hurt?โ
He shook his head. โNot anymore.โ
โThatโs good. Oh right, we got a few unwelcome guests yesterday.โ ฦ๐e๐๐๐๐๐๐จ๐ทe๐ก.๐๐ผm
โUnwelcome guests?โ Finn Taylor was in a daze. It was evident that he didnโt remember anything from the previous day.
โThe James family is here.โ
โThe James family!โ
โWhat are they here for? Have they already forgotten about the lesson I taught them last time? Are they still trying to stir up trouble for us?โ
โOh, right. Diane Taylorโฆโ
โWhatโs wrong?โ
โMom said she resigned.โ
โSigh, I really shouldnโt drink any alcohol. Maximus Brugel did tell me to remain sober all the time, so this is the first time I drank and got drunk. Now, so many things have happened!โ?Finn Taylor picked up his phone and made a call to Diane Taylor.
However, the latterโs phone was switched off, and nobody picked up the call.
He tried again, but the result was the same.
โI canโt get through to her.โ Finn Taylor put his phone down and shook his head.?โItโs impossible for Diane Taylor to have resigned on her own accord. Something mustโve happened, and the James family is definitely involved!โ?
โLetโs go and meet them.โ Finn Taylor stood up, and the couple walked out of their room.
The James family was still lazing around in the living room, where fruit peels were still strewn across the floor.
As for Linda James and Francis Larson, they were still in the kitchen.
โCall them over.โ
Yvette Larson quickly ran into the kitchen and called her parents out. Her husband then dragged a few chairs over for her.
Finn Taylor leaned against the backrest of his seat, scanning the room. โWho can give me an explanation as to why Diane Taylor left?โ
The James family glanced at each other, not saying a word.
Left with no other choice, Linda James stood up and said, โFinn, what do you mean by this? Sheโs just a caretaker, so what if she left? Are you going to kill us because of that?โ
Her daughter quickly cut in. โMom, donโt be unreasonable. We just want to know why she left.โ
โReason? The reason is that Finn came home drunk yesterday and made a mess. Diane Taylor asked him to stop throwing things around, but Finn said that it was her job to clean the house anyway. They started fighting, and Diane eventually chose to resign.โ
Finn Taylor chuckled. โMom, do you mean that I forced Diane to leave?โ
โThatโs right. Look around you; donโt you think the place is filthy? You were the one who made this mess.โ
Finn Taylor wasnโt blindโhe had seen the James family throwing their trash around earlier.?โMy mother-in-law is clearly making up a story.โ?
โOh, it seems like I mightโve made a mistake while I was drunk then..โ Finn Taylor stood up and walked out of Number One Pacific Heights with his wife.
