Chapter 504



.

Mrs. Hunt’s thoughts were simple.

The children were the ones who were most attached to their mothers. As long as she took the two children with her, she wouldn’t have to worry about Nora not going home. However, she didn’t expect there to be no movement behind her after she spoke.

She turned around, then saw Pete and Cherry looking at her in a daze, while Justin’s mouth was pursed. Mrs. Hunt was stunned. “Justin, what are you waiting for, take the child! Look how sleepy Cherry is…”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Ian’s voice. “Mrs. Hunt, we just said that Cherry has nothing to do with the Hunts. She can only take Pete.”

No sooner had he said this than Pete interjected, “I’m not leaving. I want to stay with Mom.”

Mrs. Hunt: “!”

She was stunned. Then she said in astonishment, “These two children are from the Hunts. Of course, they have to come with me.”

Ian was very domineering. “Hunt who? This is my granddaughter. She has the Smith blood in her.”

Mrs. Hunt lifted her chin. “Ian, I know society is developing, but our wealthy families still care about raising our daughters. Your daughter will marry sooner or later. The Hunt sons can’t end up in another family where they may suffer.”

Ian smiled, “Who said my daughter is going away, I’m going to find a husband for my daughter in the future! Anyway, since I don’t have a son, Nora will take on the responsibilities!”

With that, she looked at Joel and asked, “Joel, do you mind?”

Joel stood up. “Of course, I don’t mind. Even if Nora manages the Smith Corporation, I have no objection.”

Ian raised his eyebrows and looked at Mrs. Hunt. “Did you hear that?”

Mrs. Hunt: “!”

She couldn’t win against Ian, so she could only look at Justin. “Justin, aren’t you going to say anything?”

As he said this, Justin’s gaze turned even colder.

He had long known that his grandmother did not like Nora.

She preferred traditional daughters who would be at home with her husband and children, just like a mother….. In the Hunts she would be stuck as the children’s mother forever!

However, with Nora’s personality, it was impossible for her to be stuck at home.

And this time, Mrs. Hunt had come to the Smiths, first, to bring Pete and, second, to belittle Nora!

How could Justin allow Nora to be belittled at home in the future?

So…he knew what Mrs. Hunt said was true: as long as he took both children…or even one of them, Nora couldn’t leave.

But she couldn’t.

She put her head down and hugged Mrs. Hunt as she slowly said, “Grandma, let’s go.”

Mrs. Hunt was stunned. “What about the children?”

Justin sighed. “Nora gave birth to the children in the first place. The children will only follow us if she asks them to.”

Mrs. Hunt looked at Nora. “Miss Smith, let the children come with us. At the very least, let Pete come back with us.”

Nora shook her head. “I’m sorry, I can’t.”

It was more likely that Cherry would come back with them. However, it was impossible for Pete!

Since the time when she slept for a few days, she could clearly feel that Pete was more attached to her. Now was the critical period for treating her son’s mild autism. How could she let the Hunts take him away?

Mrs. Hunt misunderstood. “Really…the Smiths are going to take our son away from us?”

She turned to look at Ian. “Ian, the two families had planned a marriage alliance in the first place. Letting Miss Smith marry Justin is the best option. Why do you have to do this, aren’t you afraid we’ll turn on each other?”

Ian smiled arrogantly. “My health is not good and I don’t know how long I can live. Therefore, I don’t care what happens in the future. I just know that my daughter is not to be taken lightly.”

Mrs. Hunt choked up.

Before she could say anything else, Justin had already held her arm tightly and interrupted her. “Uncle Ian, Joel, Nora, let’s go back first. I’ll have to trouble you to take care of Pete and Cherry.”

With that, he brought Mrs. Hunt down hard.

After the group of people left the Smiths, Ian sneered. “At least this kid knows his place!”

Joel thought about his friendship with Justin during this period of time and said, “Mr. Hunt has always been pretty good, hasn’t he? But Mrs. Hunt is too unreasonable.”

After saying that, he seemed to fear that Nora would be upset, so he explained, “Nora, Mr. Hunt left because he wanted to take Mrs. Hunt home. Don’t think too much about it.”

Nora didn’t think too much about it. She just felt that the atmosphere had finally become much quieter. No one was looking at her while she ate anymore, looking down on her for eating so much.

She felt herself relax. She stretched her body and walked into the bedroom. “I understand.”

After closing the door, Ian suddenly greeted Joel. “Tell me, how does Nora feel about Justin, does she like Justin?”

Joel touched his nose as confusion flashed in his foxy eyes. “Uncle Ian, speaking of which, I find it strange too. Nora’s personality is more distant, and she’s cold to everyone. I didn’t see any intimacy between her and Justin either…. I really couldn’t tell if she likes him or not.”

Hearing this, Ian nodded thoughtfully and said, “In that case, you understand what…”

His voice was clipped.

After hearing the whole sentence, Joel looked at Ian in disbelief. “This… is not a good thing, is it?”.

Ian: “That’s what we’ll do!”

Joel: “…Okay.”

On the way back to the Hunts. Mrs. Hunt watched Justin’s expression carefully, but seeing that her grandson’s expression was still dark, she couldn’t help but cough and say, “Justin, it really wasn’t my fault about today. I didn’t say anything wrong, but Ian set me up.”

Justin said nothing.

Mrs. Hunt said again, “Don’t be like that. If you really like that Miss Smith, I’ll personally visit her another day and invite her back, how about it?”

This was what Justin wanted.

Grandma had always looked down on Nora. So he had to let her know how difficult this marriage was!

Other people’s daughters would have to beg a hundred times before agreeing, wouldn’t they?

Besides, I could make Grandma apologize to Nora! That way, when Nora married the Hunts, she wouldn’t be criticized by Mrs. Hunt. That was also why she hadn’t stopped Mrs. Hunt from speaking earlier.

However, just as he woke up the next day and was about to go downstairs, Brenda suddenly ran in front of him. “Justin, bad news! The Smiths are going to choose a husband for Nora.”
