Esther was angry with her stupid mother.
She snorted and sat down next to Chris.
Esther didn't want to talk to Laurence anymore.
She was afraid that she would lose control of her emotions if she talked to them.
Esther didn't speak, so Susan also stopped.
It was not Susan's style, but she just stopped this time.
She still had to ask Esther to help Laurence, so she had to hold back her anger.
Susan thought about the situation and suddenly noticed May and Shirley standing at the door.
May wore old clothes with patches on them, looking uneasy.
And Carole, who was also in ragged clothes, looked very scared.
Susan got furious at once. "Where do the two beggars come from? How dare they come to the Jefferson family to beg for food?"
In Susan's eyes, May and Carole were just beggars.
Only the beggar would wear such cheap clothes.
The Jefferson family was now the richest family on the East Coast.
How could Susan let two beggars in?
"We..."
Susan's scolding made May more uneasy.
May opened her mouth but said nothing. She didn't know what to say.
"Mom, what are you doing? This is the servant I hired." Esther couldn't stand it anymore. She frowned and said.
"What? A servant?"
Susan screamed in disbelief.
"You hired a beggar to be the servant. And she brings back a girl who has mental problems?" Susan asked in disbelief.
She could tell at a glance that Carole had mental problems.
"Mom, you are so unreasonable."
Esther was angry and anxious.
Why did she have such an unreasonable mother?
It was really annoying.
"Ms. Jefferson, I know you are a good person. But it seems that your mother doesn't like me. Sorry, we should leave."
Esther and Susan had a quarrel because of May, which made May have a strong sense of guilt.
After saying that, May held Carole's hand, turned around, and was about to leave.
"Ms. Zapata." Esther stopped May in a hurry.
Susan covered her nose with her hand and said in disgust, "Hurry up and leave. The Jefferson family doesn't welcome such people. They smell so disgusting. They are polluting the air in the family."
Laurence also echoed her, "Yes,. Esther. Listen to your mother. The Jefferson family is the most powerful family on the East Coast. How can you bring a beggar and a stupid girl back to the family?"
May held Carole's hand with one hand and clenched her fist with the other.
