�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?!�

"So what? My daughter-in-law is a prodigy, she was the one who invented the G6 chip that will change the entire world! Your son is nothing compared to my daughter-in-law!"

Seeing the two arguing so furiously, Renee and Jovan both let out a deep sigh.

"Jovan, this is your fault! Aren't you going to do something?" Renee nudged the man, pressuring him.

If they continued on, she was worried Francine might reveal every single bit of her past. However, she had to admit that her ex mother-in-law was quite protective of her. Anyone who didn't know her would mistake her as some kind of hardcore fan of Renee's.

It was as if Francine had memorized every single thing she had done in research, along with her projects and achievements. Mentioning any of them would make her smile pridefully.

"Don't worry, leave this up to me." Jovan raised a brow at her and joined the fight nochalantly, standing in between the two older women.

"Ladies, ladies, stop fighting. One said I raped Renee and the other said Renee raped me, but have you ever considered that we just fell in love with each other and decided to be together?" He explained slowly as he turned to look at them.

Well..." Francine and Sheila were stunned, unable to argue further. Renee slapped herself on the forehead and quickly rushed down the stairs, questioning Jovan.

"Are you kidding me?! Why are you making it worse?" His explanation made it so that she had almost no way of clearing her name.

"You said you wanted them to stop, so that's what I did. Just look!" Jovan shrugged, seemingly justified.

Francine grabbed Renee, frowning. "My dear, tell me, is there some kind of misunderstanding? I know you must be mad at Stef, I saw what happened at the summit too. My son was absolutely terrible for doing that, but believe me when I say he has never loved you any less. He's doing this for a good reason�"

Francine knew there had been lots of rumors about Stefan and Seraphina spreading like wildfire lately, especially when the two were about to get married. These rumors did have some truth to them after all, but it was quite a long time ago.

Before Renee came back, and before she found out about Abby and Adie's existence, she might've taken Seraphina's side. However, she had already become Stefan and Renee's number one fan, which was why she would unconditionally stand by Renee.

"You must have been so upset to have ended up letting this scumbag take advantage of you� How about this? I'll have Stef come over and apologize to you right now!" Francine still found her son guilty, no matter how much she thought about it. Hence, she figured that it was completely reasonable if her son was really cheated on.

She then took her phone out and dialed Stefan's number. Once he answered, she barked at him harshly, "Hey, Stef, where are you? I'm giving you thirty minutes to come here and reassure your wife!"

Francine never hoped for her dense son to actually swing by as told, as she only intended to intimidate Jovan and Sheila. After all, Stefan was undoubtedly the future head of the family, so no one would ever dare to upset him.

As expected, Sheila�s arrogance instantly faded, and she lowered her voice. �Such embarrassing things should be handled privately, right? Let�s not bother anyone else. Besides, my dear nephew is probably busy with his new girlfriend, so he wouldn�t have the time for such trivial matters!� JrNovels.com
