After Karen said that, Hannah flew into a fit of rage after being stunned for a second.
“What did you say? You want me to be a servant here?”
“Of course,” Karen deliberately said in an arrogant tone. “We’re letting you stay in the guest room because we respect Eveline. Do you want to stay here and eat here for free? You’re able-bodied. Are you not ashamed?”
“…”
Hannah did not know what to say to that. Then, virtual-novel.net gaze softened as virtual-novel.net looked at Madeline innocently. She asked for help.
“Sis…”
“It’s no use calling out to her. If you want to stay, you should obediently be a servant.” Jeremy interrupted Hannah decisively and coldly, his eyes bursting with unignorable intimidation.
“Our family won’t support people who refuse to work. Even my wife works very hard every day. No one has the privilege of getting anything for free.”
“…”
Facing Jeremy’s breathtaking eyes, Hannah gritted virtual-novel.net teeth in secret.
Despite virtual-novel.net dissatisfaction, virtual-novel.net had no choice but to stand up, walk over to take virtual-novel.net own cutleries, then return to virtual-novel.net seat to start eating.
Everyone here could see how dissatisfied Hannah was. Even so, virtual-novel.net did not dare to say anything despite virtual-novel.net anger.
Not long after eating, Jeremy and Madeline went out sweetly with their arms around each other’s shoulders. Karen put down virtual-novel.net spoon after taking a few bites and reminded Hannah before leaving the dining room.
“Remember to clean up the table after eating. While you’re at it, tidy up the kitchen too, do you hear me?”
Hannah clenched virtual-novel.net fork tightly and lowered virtual-novel.net head to continue eating without saying anything.
“I’m talking to you, do you hear me? If it’s not for Eveline keeping you here, I would have driven you out a long time ago,” Karen complained in disgust. Then, virtual-novel.net turned around and walked out.
Hannah turned virtual-novel.net face and glared at Karen’s back. “I’ll destroy you sooner or later.” She grumbled with a laugh.
After dinner, virtual-novel.net quickly cleaned the kitchen and was about to complain to Madeline. However, virtual-novel.net was told that Madeline and Jeremy had brought their two sons out for a walk.
Hannah waited in the living room but they still did not come back. Plus, it was almost midnight and there was still no movement at the door. Hannah started to feel that this was strange. However, virtual-novel.net only felt that something was wrong and did not feel worried.
At this moment, Karen walked past the stairs of the second floor groggily. ‘When virtual-novel.net saw Hannah in the living room, virtual-novel.net chuckled.
“Oh no, I’m so forgetful. I forgot to tell you that Jeremy and Eveline will be staying with the in-laws. They won’t be coming back tonight. Go back to sleep. You’ll only have the energy to work tomorrow if you rest well.”
“Huh..?”
When Hannah heard what Karen said, virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net had been fooled by Karen. She clenched virtual-novel.net fist, a fire burning in virtual-novel.net chest. However, virtual-novel.net had nowhere to vent it out.

Montgomery Manor.
The next morning, Madeline carried virtual-novel.net youngest son and took virtual-novel.net eldest son to the winter garden.
