When Jacob saw that everyone was waiting for his family, he quickly lowered his head as he greeted his mother and elder brother with a smile on his face.
Christopher pretended not to hear him and simply ignored him without saying anything at all.
Lady Wilson nodded lightly.
Jacob quickly asked, “Mom, why did you ask us to come over here today? Is anything the matter?”
“I want to ask you something. Do you own one of the villas in Thompson First?” Lady Wilson asked coldly.
At this time, Jacob quickly replied, “Yes, mom. Mr. White gave the villa to Charlie because he gave him some advice regarding some Feng Shui matters.”
“Feng Shui advice?” Harold snorted before he said, “If Charlie really got the villa because he simply gave someone some Feng Shui advice, everyone in the Wilson family should just quit their jobs and work as Feng Shui masters, then!”
Everyone in the living room snorted upon hearing this.
Jacob could only force a laugh when he heard his relatives ridiculing him.
On the contrary, Christopher laughed before he said, “Mom, no matter what kind of person Charlie is, and no matter what he did to get the villa, Mr. White himself has called to clarify that he was the one who gave Charlie the villa as a gift. Therefore, there is no need for you to force Jacob to explain how they got the villa.”
Jacob looked at his brother gratefully because he felt very thankful at this time.
His elder brother would usually disregard him and put him down, but unexpectedly, he was actually speaking up for him today!
Christopher continued smiling as he carried on talking to Lady Wilson. “Mom, you don’t have to ask Jacob how the villa came about. We have nothing to worry about since Mr. White has already clarified that he gave Charlie the villa as a gift.”
“Okay.” Lady Wilson nodded before she turned around to look at Jacob. “Jacob, your elder brother is planning to arrange for a marriage proposal with the Thomas family. He intends to matchmake Harold with Loreen. What do you think about this matter?”
“That is a good thing,” Jacob replied as he smiled. “The Thomas family is very reputable and famous in the capital. If Harold can really marry Loreen, it would definitely be very beneficial for the Wilson family.”
“Yes, it would really be a good thing for the Wilson family.” Lady Wilson sighed before she continued speaking. “However, I feel as though the Wilson family can never be compared to the Thomas family. Even if your brother has the heart to ask for Loreen to be matchmade to Harold, he does not dare to approach the Thomas family.”
Jacob nodded seriously before he said, “Mom, to be honest, I think that Loreen will not be interested in Harold either.”
The expression on Harold’s face changed immediately, and he burst out, “Second Uncle, what do you mean by that?!”
At this time, Jacob suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, and he quickly tried to rectify it. “Oh, what I meant is that the Wilson family really cannot be compared to the Thomas family at all.”
Lady Wilson simply replied, “If we were to live in the biggest and most luxurious villa in Aurous Hill, the Thomas family would not look down on us when they come to visit Aurous Hill as our guests.”
Jacob stared at his mother with a surprised expression on his face. “Mom, are you intending to buy a new house?”
Lady Wilson quickly responded, “How I wish that I could move into a bigger and newer house, but unfortunately, I do not have enough money to do so.”
As soon as Jacob heard his mother’s words, he quickly said, “Mom, if you need money, I still have about one million dollars that I can give to you.”
Lady Wilson snorted immediately. “Do you know that the cost of a villa can range from tens of millions to hundreds of millions? What could I possibly do with one million dollars?”
After that, she deliberately said, “Jacob, doesn’t your family have a villa that is ready in Thompson First?”
“Yes, we do,” Jacob replied in a daze because he did not know what she was implying. “What about it?”
“What do you mean?” The old lady replied unhappily. “I am your mother! Can you really bear to see me living in this old house for so many years? Now that you own the biggest and most luxurious villa in Thompson First, wouldn’t it be right for you to honor me and give that villa to me so that I can live there instead?”
