When she realized that everything in the house was occupied by Michael and that she could no longer turn things around, she had already thought of a plan against him.

She acted quickly and accurately, leaving Michael no time to react.

Jordan was taken by Michael from birth. Helen had barely seen her and had no time to take care of her daughter. Now that Jordan was older, there was nothing Helen could do.

“I was thinking, if Michael lost, what would happen to Jordan? Would she be sent back to Helen?”

“According to the law, yes. But it depended on their own choice.”

Helen sat alone in the spacious hotel living room. The suite was still paid for by Michael.

She could live here forever as long as she didn’t reveal client information and as long as she still had leverage over Michael.

As long as she lived, she could take revenge.

Helen never forgot the death of her parents. Her feelings towards Michael in the past had been nothing but a joke.

In fact, between Helen and Michael, it was Michael who disguised himself better, making it seem like he was interested.

Until that day, when a woman’s phone call made Helen see clearly what kind of person Michael really was.

So when she saw Jessica, the childhood sweetheart Michael cherished, she couldn’t help but speak harshly.

But Jessica didn’t care about Michael at all.

In such a lively New Year, she was left all alone.

Working with Jessica was inevitable. She only had one condition: Jessica must absolutely not harm Jordan.

After everything was over, she wanted to live with her child and have enough to support the Jills family’s finances.

Jessica agreed.

To Jessica, even at its peak, the Jills family was just a small family. She didn’t care much about their funds.

Now, it was just waiting for that day to come.

On New Year’s Day, fireworks and firecrackers had been banned in Impelia for years, but from this year, some areas were allowed to set them off.

Still half asleep, the sounds of crackling and popping rang outside.

They had watched a film until three in the morning, and then played together for a while before going to bed, but had only been asleep for less than two hours.

Jessica rubbed her eyes to get up, but Chris held her down.

“Sleep for a little longer. I’ll pack up the things we brought. The supplements for Mom need to be taken out from the storage room. I’ll call you later.”

Jessica didn’t hear clearly what Chris said, but since he held her down, she continued sleeping.

Chris put on his clothes and got up.

They arrived at the residence at eight o’clock. Albert came out to open the door.

“Miss Jessica, Mr. Green, you’re back so early. Mrs. Wilder has just started having breakfast,” Albert called to the maid to take their things.

Linda sat in the dining room, with the cat still on the table.

Jessica frowned when she saw the cat but didn’t want to say anything unpleasant during the New Year.

“Looks like Mom slept in today. It’s already eight, and you’re only just having breakfast.” Chris acted very warmly, even more familiar with the house than Jessica.

Linda raised her hand to have the maid prepare breakfast for them as well.

“Last night, I played cards with some friends. It’s the New Year, so I thought I’d have some fun, but I ended up losing a diamond necklace.”

Jessica was rendered speechless.

Actually, Linda wasn’t very good at cards. She had been busy working when she was young and hadn’t had time to learn. When she reached her retirement age, others had already played for years, so a beginner like her was no match for them.

She would always lose quite a lot of money because of this.

Jessica said, “Don’t play if you can’t win.”
