"Bam."

Hearing the door of the villa close, the two servants around Grandmother Holland were a little worried.

"Madam, should we go out and have a look?"

Everyone could tell from Lillian Ford's imposing manner that she had bad intentions.

However, Grandmother Holland waved her hand and said, "No, I can't protect her for a long time. If she wants to gain a firm foothold in the Holland family in the future, she has to rely on herself." Grandmother Holland was aware of her health, better than anyone else.

She was discharged from the hospital this time in order to reassure the shareholders of the Holland Group. After all, she was the matriarch of the Holland family.

At this time, outside the villa.

The moment the door was closed, Lillian's expression changed. She grabbed Coralie Chariott's wrist and asked fiercely, "Coralie, tell me, what did you do to trick Grandmother Holland and my son?" Lillian's hand was very strong, and as her nails had exaggerated crystal manicures, they sunk into her skin as she grabbed Coralie's wrist with her hands.

"I didn't trick Grandmother Holland, nor did I seduce your son. One of them is the matriarch of the Holland family, and the other is the boss of Skyton Corporation. How could an ordinary woman like me trick them?"

Coralie's wrist was in great pain due to her grip, as if it was going to break.

"Really? Let me tell you, my son has a very beautiful and excellent fiancee. No matter what you do, it's impossible for Skylar to fall in love with a woman like you."

After Lillian finished speaking, she released Coralie's wrist.

At this time, Coralie's wrist was red and swollen. Several deep marks could be seen.

Although they quarreled with each other, they still had to buy some vegetables.

Lillian drove her Porsche 718 and took Coralie to buy the vegetables.

In the car, Lillian's phone rang. As she was driving, she naturally used her hands-free.

The whole conversation could be heard.

"Hello, Auntie Ford, are you busy now?"

A sweet and gentle female voice came from the phone.

As she had just heard this voice a few days ago, Coralie already figured out that the person who was calling was Valerie Rae.

"Oh, Valerie, I'm not busy. I miss you so much."

Hearing the phone call from the beloved daughter-in-law of her choice, Lillian glanced at Coralie and she cheered up immediately. She spoke in a livelier tone.

"Auntie Ford, I miss you too. Anyway, I'm coming back to visit you next month," Valerie said sweetly.

"You are most welcome to visit us. I'm definitely looking forward to your return."

When Lillian heard that Valerie was coming back, she was so excited and overjoyed. In her opinion, this was a critical moment, because Skylar had been bewitched by Coralie. Valerie really needed to come back to wake Skylar up, and let him know what an excellent woman she was.

"Auntie, I'm at Tulip Avenue. I want to buy you several pieces of limited-edition dresses, but I'm worried that you can't wear them because the sizes are too big. So, I called to ask you what size you wear now. Is it still XL? As you know, these dresses are very difficult to get. I came to line up for you at four o'clock in the morning. If the size of the dresses is not suitable, it's hard to change them."

Valerie was eloquent. With a few words, she asked the question and flattered her. She also reminded her how much effort she had put in to get those dresses.

Coralie might not be able to master this even if she lived for another ten years.

When she heard that Valerie was going to buy clothes for her, Lillian quickly said, "Yes, yes, it's XL. Oh, Valerie, you're so thoughtful. You waited so early in line for me. Thanks a lot." "Auntie, you are always good to me. I should do this for you. I will buy these dresses and try to get the limited-edition bag from Hermes. If it's possible, I will bring one back for you." "How nice of you. I don't mean to trouble you."

"No trouble at all. I'll line up first. It's too noisy here. I will call you later."

Lillian was easily influenced by these materialistic items. Valerie seemed to be able to exploit this mindset of Lillian. With just a phone call, she became extremely happy.

Coralie could not be compared to her in these areas.

Valerie would call people around Coralie, like Skylar and Lillian, while she was with them. Valerie seemed to demonstrate her excellence all the time. It seemed as if God was persuading Coralie to give up. "See? This is my daughter-in-law."

Hanging up the phone, Lillian's voice returned to normal. Looking at Coralie, she seemed boastful.

She felt really happy at the thought of Valerie buying limited-edition dresses for her.

"Well, she really is your daughter-in-law."

After so many times, including the incident today, Coralie was convinced that she couldn't beat Valerie. She felt that she was unworthy of Skylar.

Skylar was excellent, and Valerie was on par with him. Only such an outstanding and intelligent woman could be with him.

After the two of them had bought the vegetables and drove home, they saw Skylar getting out of his car.

Coralie was stunned. Since she spoke angrily that day, Skylar had not been home for dinner.

"Son."

As soon as she saw that it was Skylar, Lillian got out of the car and called him.

Skylar looked back and saw his well-dressed mother and Coralie, who was carrying the groceries all by herself. He frowned slightly. Coralie was very thin. Seeing that she was carrying so many things, Skylar's eyes darkened. Instinctively, he walked toward Coralie.

Before Coralie could react, Skylar took all the groceries from her hands. Then, he turned around and walked to the door without saying a word.

Lillian stood behind him and witnessed this scene. She was about to explode. "Son? Why are you carrying the groceries? Shouldn't such errands be done by a servant like her?" Coralie stood there with her hands empty. She didn't expect this.

Seeing that it was useless to persuade Skylar, Lillian turned around and scolded Coralie, "Coralie, what's wrong with you? How can you let my son do such a thing?"

Coralie reacted and hurried to Skylar's side, trying to get what was in his hand.

"Let me do it, Skylar."

Skylar ignored her and strode to the door of the villa. He turned around and ordered Coralie beside him. "We're at the door. What's the point of snatching? Open the door quickly." Coralie had no choice but to stretch out her right hand. She pressed the small fingerprint scanner at the door gently with her index finger.

A beeping sound was heard.

The door opened.

Coralie opened the door and made way for Skylar.

Lillian, who was standing behind, witnessed all of this. Initially, she thought that Grandmother Holland had brought Coralie here.

However, she saw now that Coralie actually had access to this house using her fingerprints. She rushed forward in disbelief and grabbed Coralie once again. "Coralie, why do you have access to the fingerprints scanner?
