Chapter 1479

Francine's admiration for Adie grew when she heard what he had done. She felt that Adie had taken after his

mother and grandmother, and he was much better than his reserved father. Adie was a promising candidate to run

Hunt Enterprise in the future, and he might even be more capable than his father.

"Your grandson nearly got my daughter killed, and you're laughing? Are you mocking her?" Ethan blustered, his

face red in anger. He had wanted Francine to feel guilty, but it looked like she was more amused than anything

about the whole incident.

Francine snorted. "Yeah, I'm mocking her. She's an adult, but she was bested by a kid. Isn't it ridiculous?" After that,

she took a step toward Ethan and said fiercely, "And for your information, I'm fully aware of my grandson’s

character- he'd never attack someone unless they provoked him first. The better question is why he pushed your

daughter into the pond; I think you'd better ask your daughter about it before putting on a show here."

"Francine, you... you've gone too far!” Ethan bellowed in outrage as he pointed at Francine. "I used to consider you

charming, but you're actually this arrogant! Seraphina sincerely loves Stefan, but what did she get in the end?"

Francine rolled her eyes and scoffed, "How would I know? She can leave if she feels wronged. I'm sure there's a

reason

she so desperately wants to be with Stefan anyway."

"Well, look at you—you don't even want to resolve this! I guess that officially makes us enemies from today

onwards! " Ethan sneered spitefully. In actual fact, the Murphy family had other plans, but Ethan couldn't fall out

with the Hunts because Seraphina kept pestering Stefan. However, he could now use today's incident as an excuse

to attack the Hunt family. Even if word got out about this, others wouldn't criticize the Murphy family for being cruel,

but they would condemn the Hunt family for being outrageous.

"It’s you who wants to cut ties with us, so don't involve the youngsters. Although I don't manage the company, I

know what your family’s been up to." Francine was a smart woman, and she was well aware of the schemes and

deception in the business world. The Murphy family had approached the Hunt family with ulterior motives, and now

they wanted to fall out with them for the same reason too.

"So what if you know? My family will stop investing in your family, and Hunt Enterprise will suffer because you've put

all your money into the field of AL" Gloating, Ethan continued, "I don't care if your son wants to take risks, but don't

drag me into it. I don't want to suffer any losses with him, so don't blame me for retreating."

Francine's expression changed and she snarled, "Get lost! My family doesn't need pity from an upstart like you!"

After Ethan left, Elijah cautiously approached Francine. "Are you alright, Madam Francine?"
