Chapter 596
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Upon seeing Reneeâs reaction, Francineâs eyes brightened. She excitedly pulled Reneeâs hand and asked, âDid you think of something? Tell me, quick!â
âI knew my son wouldnât die so easily. I knew he left clues for you!â
Renee shook her head. Her helpless expression seemed sincere. âHe didnât leave me any clues, but if even you, his mother, canât be sure if heâs dead, then Iâm even more uncertain⦠At least, so far, Iâve only learned about his death from other people.â
âSince youâve already chosen a grave for him, surely you must know where his corpse is?â
Francineâs bloodshot eyes were sad as she said, âStefanâs father said he had an accident and had died in the hospital. Apparently, the way he died was horrible. His father was worried that I might not be able to take it if I saw him, so he was cremated overnight. We chose the grave together, but I still donât believe that heâs dead. I think they must be planning something in secret, so I turned a blind eye and went along with their actingâ¦â
âBut now, the H Group is in chaos, and I heard lots of rumors slandering my son. The most terrifying thing is that the H Group will be taken away by a useless relative tomorrow. The company is the result of generations of hard work, especially by Stefan. He sacrificed so much for the H Group. If heâs still alive, he wouldnât just watch as something he values gets taken away.â
At that moment, Jovan slowly walked out of the room and stood in the center of the rotating staircase with his hands in his pockets. He looked down at Renee and Francine like a king.
âUseless relative?â
The manâs lips curled into a mocking sneer, âAfter all these years, your words are still so sharp, Auntie Francine. They hurt me so.â
âJovan?â
Francine immediately put away her sadness and put on a cold and proud expression. She yelled, âThis is my sonâs house. What are you doing here? Youâre an illegitimate son of unknown origin. Youâre trash.
You donât deserve to be here. SCRAM!â
Renee was shocked when she heard that.
Tsk tsk, her ex-mother-in-law sure had a toxic mouth. She had no filter at all.
She wondered if Jovan would assassinate Francine the next day. After all, Jovan could get really reckless when he was crazy!
Renee thought Jovan would instantly lose his temper when he heard those insulting words, but he did not react at all. His smile even deepened.
As an illegitimate child who grew up in the Hunt family, he was probably immune to these insults by now.
âCalm down, Auntie Francine. The one who should scram is you because starting from tomorrow, everything your son once owned will become mineâ¦â
As Jovan spoke, he walked downstairs. His towering and superior figure bore a little resemblance to Stefan.
He walked upto Francine with a sinister smile and arrogantly declared his ownership. âNot only will this villa belong to me, even his former wife will be mine⦠If you cant stand it, youâre welcome to join him in hell!â
âIn.Jn your dreamsââ
Francineâs patience has reached its limit. She swung her hand and slapped him.
Unfortunately, Jovan, who had always obediently received the insults and beatings hurled at him, was different now. He grabbed her wrist and warned her, âFrancine Milford, I advise you to accept reality.
Both your sons are dead. Your era is over. The Hunt family will soon belong to me and my descendants. You think Iâd still suffer your insults?â
He put a decent amount of strength into his grip. Francine seemed to be in pain and tried to break free.
She cursed, âLet me go, you little bastard.
Youâre just like your slut of a mother who sleeps around with men. Youâre an ambitious lot but youâll never succeed! You⦠Aah!â
âDonât you dare insult my mother!â
Jovanâs eyes were cold. He put more strength into his long fingers and cruelly bent Francineâs wrist.
Francine had been living a privileged life her whole life. She had never suffered this kind of treatment before. Her face twisted from the pain.
