NovelEnglishChapter 61 "That's right, we all love mommy!" the other children all said together.
Lara beamed happily. "And Grandma," she reminded them.
"Yeah, we love Grandma too!" the children called out in agreement. Their cute little voices could melt anyone's heart. With a bright smile, Lara stood tall and held her head up high, no longer ashamed.
In fact, she felt very proud of herself.
With four lovely grandchildren who adored her so, no one could be more blessed than she was.

No amount of money could compare to this fortune.
"You may have money," she said to Samantha, "But you can only spend it on yourself. Since it's none of anyone else's business, maybe you should just keep quiet about it, instead of showing it off everywhere? How does it help anyone to see you helping yourself?" Willow turned to look at the woman standing beside Samantha, who shifted uncomfortably beneath her gaze. A moment ago, she'd been trying her best to humiliate Willow; now, she was the one who felt humiliated, instead.
Willow had a point: If you were nice to rich people, did that mean they'd give you money in return? No. They hadn't gotten rich by sharing their money around so easily.
Samantha watched Willow leaving with her family. Her painted face twisted with fury.
How could Willow be so happy, when anyone could see how poor she was?! It was ridiculous! How could she be so happy?! She'd been locked up in that shed... and yet, Mr Jasper had somehow crashed through the roof, and impregnated her with four of his children! Samantha had gone through so much trouble to ruin Willow's fortunes...
And yet, like a rat, she thrived in her filth and misery! She hated Willow so much! She was every bit as beautiful as Willow was, and far more capable! She'd worked so hard, made so many plans... now she was finally enjoying the lifestyle of the rich and successful... so how could Willow have found more happiness than she had?! Perhaps what Samantha really needed to be happy was to see Willow crying in despair... begging in desperation...
Yes, that was it! That was the key! One day, Willow would run out of money completely, and cto Samantha in tears, begging for scash... how happy Samantha would be to see that! Willow brought her children back to her family home.
She'd grown up in this place. It was nothing special, and falling apart in places. However, it was clean and tidy. The collapsed shed, as well as the pig-sty beside it, had been cleared away and replaced with a garden, where vegetables were growing.
Samantha's hwas behind her own. It used to be the skind of house as hers, plain and run-down. However, when Samantha found wealth, she'd torn that old house down, and built a fancy multi-storey mansion in its place.
The new building was so tall that it blocked the sunlight from reaching Willow's home, so that the sun never warmed her place, except during the summer.
It had always been a cold and miserable place to begin with. Now, it was even more so.
