Chapter 2030 Burdens Revealed

Although Elena no longer managed the company, she still sent people to handle the Rainsworth relatives and countless social obligations.

She also maintained warm relations with the wives of various corporate leaders so their husbands would find cooperation easier.

Many times, Elena had bent over backward just to stay on good terms with those women.

Remembering this, the housekeeper couldn't suppress her sense of injustice and told Wren, "Mr. Rainsworth, all the things you're doing now used to be Mdm. Elena's burden."

Wren, slumped on the couch, snapped his eyes wide open at her words.

Startled by his sharp gaze, the housekeeper stepped back but did not apologize.

Wren lacked many strengths, yet at least he wasn't hot-tempered; he didn't lash out.

"As the Rainsworth family's daughter-in-law, she was supposed to do those things."

“But Mdm. Elena is divorced from you now," the housekeeper shot back without hesitation.

Wren was left completely speechless.

He changed the subject. "New Year's Day is almost here. We should prepare a proper family gathering. Go find Elena and ask her to handle the arrangements."
