Chapter: 673

�The important thing is that my darling son likes her. That idiot has taken too long to understand love, and he�s never really liked anyone before this too. Now that someone has captured his heart, of course I�d wish that they will both settle down together.�

Edith nodded. �That is true. Ever since Miss Everheart left all these years, Master Hunt has been so miserable. I haven�t seen him smile genuinely for so long. Hopefully this time, when they reconcile, they won�t break up again.�

�That goes without saying. But my son doesn�t seem interested in taking action this time. That�s why, I, as his mother, will have to take matters into my own hands. I just can�t let those two miss each other again!�

As Francine and Edith were discussing how to get Stefan and Renee together, a servant announced, �Madam, Miss Desrosiers is here to see you.�

�Oh, her. Tell her that I am busy at the moment and cannot meet her.� Francine�s expression was one of annoyance.

�But� Miss Desrosiers said that she has very important news she needs to tell you!�

�Alright, alright, let her in!� Francine said reluctantly.

In reality, she wasn�t very pleased with Briar Desrosiers. If that woman hadn�t gotten pregnant with a child of the Hunt family, then ended up in such a sorry state, she would have abandoned her long ago.

After a while, a servant guided a plainly dressed, frail Miss Desrosier into the garden.

�Look at her, outsiders would think she was here to mourn the dead! She�s going to bring us bad luck!� Francine frowned as she looked on with scorn, ranting to Edith.

�Miss Francine!� Briar slowly approached and started sobbing as soon as she was in front of her, �Miss Francine, I think I�ve ruined everything! You have to help me this time! If you don�t, Stefan might never forgive me and he�ll ignore me forever��

�Really?� Francine�s first thought was, �Could this really be true? My angel of a son is finally going to get rid of you?�

Regardless, she kept up a regal facade out of courtesy, and feigned concern. �Stop crying first. Tell me what happened. I will help however I can.�

Briar wiped away her tears pitifully, whimpering. �This is all my fault� You know how Miss Everheart is back in the city, right? I felt extremely upset when reminiscing about the past, so I hoped she could visit my child�s grave, and sincerely apologize for what she�s done, so that my baby can finally rest in peace��

Francine nodded solemnly. �That sounds reasonable. No matter if she intended it or not, she did in fact indirectly cause the death of that child. She must visit the grave at the very least!�

�I thought so too, but you know how Miss Everheart is. She�s prideful and headstrong, so she doesn�t even think she was in the wrong! She refused to apologize, and it was up to Stef to step up� It took a lot of time and effort to convince her��

�What then?� Francine looked rather upset now, urging Briar to continue.

Although she wanted Renee and Stefan to make up, she could never forgive someone so immoral. After all, Renee did murder an innocent baby, and it would be absolutely horrid of her if she refused to apologize for it.

�After that, we headed up the mountains, but she kept talking nonsense! She openly disrespected my baby, which made Stef very angry.�

�He was so mad that he kicked her out of the car, and soon he started ignoring me out of frustration too! I couldn�t get a hold of him ever since we separated from that trip!� JrNovels.com
