Francine hurriedly rushed over to Jovan's 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.
"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.
"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?!"
