Chapter 222
Mary rubbed the new 60-inch smart TV in the living room, and a greedy grin appeared.
"Hm, a bit dusty, but I can sell this for a high price," Mary said as she began to estimate the price of the TV.
She turned it on, and it was in a perfect condition, much to her delight.
She then looked around to find other things she could sell, realizing that everything she could see was a fortune waiting to be cashed out.
It seemed that Kate had been secretly pampering her mother by buying her many expensive pieces of furniture, including a TV, grand piano, an Italian-made sofa, an authentic vase from China, et cetera.
"Hmph, look at her, trying to pamper her mother, even though Hilda is sickly and probably will die soon," Mary sneered at Kate. "If she is truly a good woman and daughter-in-law of mine, she would give me all of this expensive furniture and electronics. She should be fair since we are a family now."
Mary was envious because she had never gotten so many expensive things. All Matt did was send her money, even though he could ask for more when she was still under his feet.
"Had I known that Kate is the real breadwinner the whole time, I would’ve treated her right, so she can give me stuff like this too," Mary said as she patted the exquisite Chinese vase with a beautiful crane artwork on it.
Mary never really saw the value of the furniture in Hilda’s house because they were best friends, and she had never considered selling Hilda’s stuff.
