Francine hurriedly rushed over to Jovan’s home, a scowl on her face for the whole journey.
Enter title…
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.
“Sheila Campbell, what is your problem? It’s seven in the morning! Did something great
happen to my family that you just couldn’t bear to watch in envy any longer?!” Francine
ignored the maids’ 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 Jovan’s room and stood by the staircase, mocking her. “I 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.”
“Daughter-in-law?” Francine narrowed her eyes. “My 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 jealousy…”
However, the woman’s prideful expression stiffened as soon as she saw Renee and Jovan
walking out of the room together.
“Wh… What’s this? Renee, why did you come out of that useless trash’s bedroom? Did you
come here to teach them a lesson because you couldn’t bear to look at this sorry family
too?”
Renee lowered her gaze, not knowing how to explain her way out of this.
“Hahaha. Oh Francine, you’re too old to be so naive! What else can a man and a woman be
doing in a room, all alone?” Sheila cackled, finally taking the upperhand.
“How 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 Jovan’s reputation is ruined!”
“If I had to pin the blame… She didn’t have good role models to look up to. You people
must’ve been acting sinfully as well. I won’t 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?”
“Jovan isn’t like your son, he wants someone decent and modest! He-“
“Enough! Shut your dirty mouth, Sheila Campbell!” Francine roared, unable to handle her
rambling any longer. Her voice reached the houses three blocks down from where they
were.
“Funny you should mention reputation when your son’s rotten banana basically destroyed
any he had left! What does he do apart from laze and fool around with women?!” Francine
rolled her sleeves up, retorting.
“Everyone 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 don’t want to let this go either! I’m going to report your son for rape right now!”
“You… Stop trying to shift the blame!” Sheila didn’t intend to back down either, storming
down the stairs and approaching Francine.
“My Jovan is a charming, dashing young man. Countless women wish they could marry him!
How could he possibly be into this useless witch who’s given birth to two!? She’s 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!”
“Hah! How dare you call my daughter-in-law useless?” Francine scoffed. “Ask around! Don’t
you know who the renowned chairman of KCL is? They’re all saying how she is a feminist
icon, and a hero to all!”
“Now, look at your trashy son. What other achievements does he have apart from his
womanizing history?!”
“How is my Jovan trashy?! Don’t you know how much my son did for H Group’s international
marketing?! Do you have no eyes? Did you not see for yourself?!”
