Chapter 1752

In the end, Riley did not make it to the matchmaking session because she was busy looking for her
sister in law, and her brother, who was a good-for-nothing.

Yet, after searching high and low for a day, she still had no clue of their whereabouts.

When Riley reached home and saw her mother and sisters munching on sunflower seeds while
watching a television program, she exploded in rage.

"Mom, why are you not looking for them? It's New Year, yet they're still not home.Are you not worried?"

Violet crossed her legs and responded nonchalantly, "What for? You should know that Edmund doesn't
like staying home."

Her response left Riley speechless.

Violet continued, "And don't you dare mention Tillie again.Where was she when mom and I were busy
entertaining all the guests who visited us today? She should have stayed home and done her part.Why
should I go and look for her?"

Gabrielle echoed, "That's right!"

The mother-daughter duo kept painting Tillie in a bad light.

A vortex of anger swirled inside Riley, and she exploded.

"Get the hell out of here and look for them right now! If you can't find them by the end of the day, don't
even think of stepping into the house! Go!"

Riley was enraged.She picked up a broom and started chasing them out of the house.



Unlike Tillie, Riley was like a boss in the Cooper family.

No one would dare to go against her when she was throwing a fit.

Violet reluctantly got off the couch and ran toward the living hall.

"Riley, are you crazy? Why are you taking it out on me just because they went missing?"

"That's the only way to get your *ss out of the house! Tillie must have pampered you when I wasn't
around in the last two years.From now on, I'll not allow you to sit here and do nothing!"

Riley picked up a ceramic plate and smashed it at Violet, who talked back at her.

Violet and Gabriella had no choice but to leave the house to look for Edward and Tillie.

Alice, who was carrying a child in her arms, was stunned to see how furious Riley was.

"Riley..."

"Shush! And you.You're also one of a kind.Why do you always come back to the Cooper residence
when you're married? The Coopers are supposed to take care of you and your kid, huh?"

Riley stared at her sister and reprimanded.

Alice was also another problematic person in the family.

Though she had married into another family, she was still the same old lazy woman, and no one could
stand her.

Even her mother-in-law could not get along with her.

That was why she chose to stay in the Cooper residence even after she had delivered the baby.



Because of her, Tillie had to hire a maid to help her look after the child and cook for the family.

Unbelievable! Flushed with embarrassment, Alice carried her child and scuttled away.

Riley could finally enjoy some peace in the house.

Seconds later, she took out her phone and started making phone calls to locate Edmund and Tillie's
whereabouts.

Riley wanted to track them down as soon as possible because last night, Sasha told her to pay
attention to Tillie since the latter was ill.It was the next day after New Year, yet no one knew where Tillie
and Edmund went after leaving the Jadeson residence last night.

Riley then gave Edmund another call.

The phone finally got through.

When she heard Edmund's voice, Riley questioned him, "Where the hell are you? Do you know that
Tillie hasn't returned the whole day?"

Edmund kept mum.He was not in a good mood as he had lost quite a bit of money to his friends during
a poker game.

Upon hearing that, Edmund expressed his dismay.

"So? Shouldn't you be calling her instead of yelling at me?"

"Do you think I'd call you if I can get to her? Listen carefully, Edmund Cooper.You better look for her
now, or you're going to be in trouble!"

Riley threatened him.She was utterly disappointed with her brother's reaction.



With that, she hung up on him.

Edmund, who sat by the gambling desk, dropped his cards and wondered.

Trouble? What trouble? Is she going to teach me a lesson because she noticed Tillie and I are not as
loving as she initially thought? Or is she mad at us because we have yet to have our own kid?
Edmund's expression turned grim.

"Your family called, Mr.Cooper? Do you have to leave soon?"

"It seems like someone is afraid of the wife!" his friends teased.

Edmund felt even more irritated.

Reluctant to return to the Cooper residence, he continued playing a few rounds of poker.He only went
home when it was almost past midnight.
