Teresa took a deep breath. During her search for Anthony, she noticed the ornaments of the hotel, and her heart ached so much she felt it difficult to breathe.
In her eyes, those ornaments were inoney. The roses she had just walked past cost around one hundred thousand dollars per bouquet.
At the thought that she would have to buy those expensive flowers for Widi’s wedding, she had a headache. “My wedding wasn’t so extravagant,” she thought indignantly.
To be frank, Teresa and Anthony could afford a grand wedding like this after the long internal fight. The problem was that Teresa didn’t want to spend so much money on Widi.
At the thought of the rapid decline of her wealth, she felt both resentful and regretful. She was shocked when she perceived her true feelings.
She abruptly paused in the hall, lowered her head, and furrowed her eyebrows. Her expression was grim.
Teresa thought, “What’s wrong with me? I asked for it because I spoke ill of Gavyn and Carol before Richard. Why do I resent Widi suddenly?”
Teresa recalled the whole incident and was sure that Widi had kept her mouth shut during the whole
process.
Teresa thought, “She just followed behind me and Richard. She did nothing wrong, so why do I hate her all of a sudden?”
She was frightened by her subconscious hatred towards Widi. In a painful internal struggle, she glanced at the people around her, hesitated, and walked on.
She hated Widi because she thought that Widi deserved a good wedding like the other girls, not an extravagant one like
Laura’s.
Because of Richard, her budget for Widi’s wedding would have to increase by more than three times. She didn’t want to spend so much money on Widi or have the guts to disobey Richard, so she was anxious to seek help from her husband.
Why did she hate Widi? She knew that she shouldn’t, and that was why she got shocked by her negative emotions.
“Widi is also my child. My only daughter,” she thought. Even so, she couldn’t suppress her resentment against Widi.
Walking on with complex feelings like resentment and guilt, Teresa calculated the total cost of Laura’s engagement banquet and wedding.
The figure was about one hundred million dollars after Rupert footed the bill for what he was supposed to.
After the calculation, Teresa considered her dissatisfaction with Widi justifiable. The reason was that she would spend so much money on Widi.
Every soul had a mind of his own. To Teresa, Widi wasn’t in the same situation as Laura and Yvonne.
Neither Laura nor Yvonne had siblings, but Widi had an elder brother and a younger one.
A long time ago, Carol had decided that Laura was her only child, so she spared no effort to give Laura the best stuff she could get.
As for Yvonne, she was now the only kid in the Holmes family, and she had been lost for a long time. Therefore, it was understandable that she was attached great importance to by the Holmes family.
Teresa considered it unreasonable for Richard to compare Widi with Laura and Yvonne. Complaining about Richard in her

heart, she couldn’t help but slow down.
She wasn’t aware of her problem till she noticed a famous scholar ahead of her. With a sullen face, she had walked past many influential acquaintances.
Her unfriendly expression might have intimidated the people, who wanted to greet her, and changed their impression of
her.
Teresa deliberately slowed down. She skillfully showed a smiling face and greeted the scholar when she walked past him.
Then, a thought came into her mind. Instantly, all her so–called internal struggles, headaches, and regrets vanished.
That thought was about a house near Peral University. Widi owned that house, and its value was about the cost of a grand wedding like Laura’s.
No, the house was more valuable because many people wanted it. Back then, Richard had to buy the house via his connections. The residents in that district were affluent, so only a few houses were on sale.

The problem would be solved if Teresa got Widi’s house. With the house in return, Teresa would be happy to throw a grand wedding for Widi, no, the grandest one in 50 years.
Teresa had the confidence to keep her word because she was capable and rich. Gradually, she relaxed, and a sincere and bright smile spread across her face.
She didn’t need her husband’s opinions anymore. She took out her phone and summoned Widi over with a message. She was anxious to share her perfect solution with Widi.
The arrival of Teresa’s message didn’t surprise Widi. She had been waiting for a call from her mother, and she had a rough idea of what Teresa would say.
Widi thought, “Mom will persuade me to have a simple wedding and tell me to convince Grandpa. Grandpa will be disappointed if I don’t say no to Mom.”
Widi was worried. She hated disappointing Richard while she was afraid that she would yield to Teresa in the coming negotiation.
