Chapter 391 This Is Her Real Purpose It was fine if Chris didn’t take a look. He couldn’t help but get angry when he took a look. Benson and Anisa were at the door of the empty room across the hall, and Alfred and Cecelia were there too. There were a lot of people gathered outside the door. “What are they doing?” Queenie asked curiously. “Did my dad let that woman stay at Madam Maria’s house?” Dana wondered. “Dad, Mum, stay here. I’m going over to check it out!” Queenie walked over to poke around. The wing was cleaned up, and Benson pushed Anisa into the house, followed by Anisa’s servants carrying some of her belongings. For example, Anisa’s favourite antique gramophone was given to her by Alfred. She had kept it to this day, and it still worked. “Camila, play my song. Let’s liven things up!” Anisa was pleased with the house. She could see the opposite room through the doors and windows. The gramophone was switched on, and the records were placed on it. Soon, the classic songs that Anisa had sung in her youth were slowly played. Her singing could be heard throughout the courtyard. Alfred quietly enjoyed listening to the songs Anisa sang in her youth. It was as if he could recall the romantic days of his youth through the songs. The moment Queenie came to the door, she was very angry to see that Anisa was really living there. Queenie could hear that the music on the gramophone was Anisa’s old songs, and she was furious that Anisa had deliberately played them so loudly. “Can you turn the music down? Or you shut it down! My grandma is not feeling well right now. She’s lying down to rest. She needs to have a good rest!”
Anisa shot a look at Queenie and gave Camila the order. “Camila, turn the sound up. I can’t hear it very well!” “Yes, madam.” Camila didn’t switch off the gramophone. Instead, she turned up the sound. Her singing voice became louder.
“Grandpa, look!” Queenie wanted to complain while Alfred said, “I haven’t heard such beautiful singing in years.” Queenie didn’t know what to say when she saw that Grandpa didn’t care. She was about to explode with anger. “You guys have gone too far!” To stop Anisa from making a scene, Queenie came in, knocked the gramophone over, and said, “Listen! Keep listening…” Queenie not only smashed the gramophone but also stomped on it in anger. “No! No! … That was my favorite…” Anisa screamed uncontrollably as she watched her favorite gramophone destroyed. Benson couldn’t hold back. He grabbed Queenie by the hand and threw her back. Then he raised his hand and slapped her four times. “Slap!” “Slap!” “Slap!” “Slap!” Queenie was knocked to the ground. She was confused. Then she looked up and saw Benson’s grim and ghastly face. “If you ever disrespect my mother again, I’ll hurt you really badly!” Benson’s word-for-word warning was terrifying to Queenie. “Grandpa, he hit me…” After coming back to her senses, Queenie could only cry to Alfred. There was no way that Alfred would defend her because what she just did was really too much. “You deserved it! How could you do that? How could you smash Anisa’s gramophone since she wanted to listen to music?” “Forget it! Alfred, it’s okay. Unfortunately, that was the gramophone you gave me back then…” Seeing Anisa in tears, Alfred was more concerned about her. He immediately said, “Johnson, go get the gramophone in my room!” “Yes!” Alfred wanted to defend Anisa. In the end, Queenie covered her sore cheeks and ran away in tears. Cecelia stood by and watched the scene coldly. As the saying said, “Two bulls can’t reign in one pen.” She helped Anisa and her son move into the Songo family, and she let them stay across the hall from Carol and get the same treatment.
Next, she would wait and see what would happen! Queenie went back to the main house. She told her mum what had happened. When Dana looked at her daughter’s swollen face, she was very angry and worried about her daughter. “Gee! They have gone too far!” Dana said to her husband, “Chris, what are we going to do now? Anisa and Benson must have cast a spell on your dad. He actually took their side! And he even slapped Queenie!” “Ugh!” Chris sighed and said, “My dad is such an old fool!” Carol, who was lying in bed, was so angry that she punched the bed when she heard what had happened. “Did Alfred just hit Queenie because she broke Anisa’s gramophone? D*mn Alfred! He’s trying to piss me off!” The moment her voice broke off, Johnson came in from outside and tried to move the gramophone from the cupboard. Seeing this, Carol rushed to stop Johnson and said, “Johnson, what are you doing?” “Mrs. Songo, Mr. Songo asked me to move the gramophone to compensate Madam Anisa.” After saying that, Johnson moved the gramophone away. Carol didn’t expect Alfred to do such a thing. “Put it down! Do you hear me…” Carol got up. She ordered with shaking hands, but Johnson didn’t stop. Soon, he left. “Pfft…”
Carol was furious. She spat blood from her mouth and instantly collapsed on the bed. “Mum! Mum…” “Quick! Call an ambulance…” Everyone started to scramble. Someone pinched her philtrum. Someone gave her CPR until the ambulance arrived at the Songo family. Warda ran to report to Alfred. “Grandpa, something happened. My grandmother has passed out again. You have to come and see her!”
Alfred didn’t say anything and followed Warda away. As soon as Alfred left, Anisa once again put a cold look on her face. She had a strong hatred in her heart. Anisa wanted Carol and the others to go through what she went through! She thought, “We’ll see! This is just the beginning!” “I’ll go see her!” Cecelia followed Alfred over. She had to see for herself how miserable Carol was. The ambulance crew arrived with a stretcher in the main house room and put Carol on the stretcher. Cecelia stood in the courtyard and saw the unconscious Carol being carried away. Carol’s maid ran out with the crew. As she watched, Cecelia coldly snorted in her heart. “Everyone in the Songo family is not going to get away with this.” Cecelia used Anisa to get at Carol. She wanted to get rid of Carol without getting blood on her hands! That was what she really wanted! Just one night later, what happened to the Songo family made the news. Alfred celebrated his 88th birthday. He recognized his own son. The fact that he married his fourth wife caused a sensation throughout Bemanko. The netizens and the ordinary people took delight in talking about it. Many people envied Alfred, but only Alfred himself knew that he would never have a peaceful life. Carol’s life was saved when she was admitted to the hospital for emergency treatment. Her children and grandchildren come to see Alfred. They unanimously demanded that Anisa move out of the Songo family. “Dad, you make the decision! The doctors have said my mum can’t take any more pressure. There’s no way she’s going to live across from Mrs. Quinsey.” Alfred was in a dilemma, but Cecelia stepped in. “Granduncle, I’ve got an idea that could work both
ways!” “Oh? What is it?” asked Alfred.
