Chapter 928
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Francine hurriedly rushed over to Jovanâs home, a scowl on her face for the whole journey.
She had always been rivals with Sheila ever since she joined the Hunt family. For years, she had never lost once, apart from comparing their daughter-in-laws back then.
Now, she was proud of her daughter-in-law as well. Not only did Renee have a successful career, she had even given birth to a pair of beautiful twins. That was surely enough to keep Sheila at the bottom for eternity.
âSheila Campbell, what is your problem? Itâs seven in the morning! Did something great happen to my family that you just couldnât bear to watch in envy any longer?!â Francine ignored the maidsâ attempts at stopping her and barged right into the living room. She was clearly ready for a fight, and her aura was absolutely intimidating.
Sheila then walked out of Jovanâs room and stood by the staircase, mocking her. âI really am quite envious of what great things have been happening to your family recently. I mean, it is really difficult to find such an indecent daughter-in-law after all.â
âDaughter-in-law?â Francine narrowed her eyes. âMy daughter-in-law is an amazing woman! She can balance both work and family perfectly! Just look at her successful business and lovely children! All you can do is shrivel up in jealousyâ¦â
However, the womanâs prideful expression stiffened as soon as she saw Renee and Jovan walking out of the room together.
âWh⦠Whatâs this? Renee, why did you come out of that useless trashâs bedroom? Did you come here to teach them a lesson because you couldnât bear to look at this sorry family too?â
Renee lowered her gaze, not knowing how to explain her way out of this.
âHahaha. Oh Francine, youâre too old to be so naive! What else can a man and a woman be doing in a room, all alone?â Sheila cackled, finally taking the upperhand.
âHow did you manage to teach your daughter-in-law such sinful acts?! She came all the way here to seduce her own cousin-in-law! My little Jovanâs reputation is ruined!â
âIf I had to pin the blame⦠She didnât have good role models to look up to. You people mustâve been acting sinfully as well. I wonât let this off so easily, the old man is going to hear about this! How else is my Jovan going to live his life with pride after this?â
âJovan isnât like your son, he wants someone decent and modest! He-â
âEnough! Shut your dirty mouth, Sheila Campbell!â Francine roared, unable to handle her rambling any longer. Her voice reached the houses three blocks down from where they were.
âFunny you should mention reputation when your sonâs rotten banana basically destroyed any he had left! What does he do apart from laze and fool around with women?!â Francine rolled her sleeves up, retorting.
âEveryone in Beach City knows how gentle and humble my daughter-in-law is! Do you not know what trash your son is?! Your son must have been too lustful and forced himself onto her! I donât want to let this go either! Iâm going to report your son for rape right now!â
âYou⦠Stop trying to shift the blame!â Sheila didnât intend to back down either, storming down the stairs and approaching Francine.
âMy Jovan is a charming, dashing young man. Countless women wish they could marry him! How could he possibly be into this useless witch whoâs given birth to two!? Sheâs been used, and even if it was rape, your daughter-in-law must be the criminal here! Call the cops all you want, they will find the truth!â
âHah! How dare you call my daughter-in-law useless?â Francine scoffed. âAsk around! Donât you know who the renowned chairman of KCL is? Theyâre all saying how she is a feminist icon, and a hero to all!â
âNow, look at your trashy son. What other achievements does he have apart from his womanizing history?!â
âHow is my Jovan trashy?! Donât you know how much my son did for H Groupâs international marketing?! Do you have no eyes? Did you not see for yourself?!â
