Chapter: 674
Briar started tearing up at this point, looking back at Francine sadly. �Miss Francine, I� I just wanted to beg you� to give Stef a call. Please tell him to forgive me, and tell him I�ll listen to his every word from now on! I�ll stop forcing Miss Everheart to visit my baby�s grave too! I just want him to forgive me!�
After hearing all that, Francine was furious as well. �If what you said is true, why are you even apologizing? Everheart should be the one apologizing in this case. She literally killed a baby, so how was her reaction warranted? How is it unreasonable to ask her to visit the baby�s grave?�
�Of course it wasn�t, I�d say that Miss Everheart was the one overstepping here� She killed a child of the Hunt family! We were being merciful by letting her off so easily!� Edith sounded annoyed after listening in on their conversation.
She had long heard about Renee�s antics. However, she never expected her to be this bad. She just didn�t understand why the Hunts were so fond of her, to the point where the usually picky Francine had succumbed to her supposed charms.
In her opinion, Briar was far better, the best even. She figured that a fragile woman like her wouldn�t have any bad intentions in her heart.
Honestly, Francine didn�t fully believe Briar�s word regarding this matter. From what she knew of Renee, the woman might be wild, but she wouldn�t be such an inconsiderate person
Thus, Francine took her phone out and dialed Stefan�s personal number.
�I�d like to ask Stef about the entire situation. I really don�t believe that the girl would be so insolent!�
However, it turned out that she couldn�t reach Stefan as well. Not even Elijah knew about his whereabouts.
�That�s weird, why can�t I reach him? That kid�s usually at work at this hour, and H Group is facing quite a lot of challenging matters that require his attention. Where has he run off to?� Francine�s face was painted with concern as she realized the severity of the situation.
After that, she contacted everyone she could, trying her best to find Stefan, only to find that they were looking for the man as well.
�Why can�t I contact that child? Did something happen to him?� Francine seemed uneasy.
Lately, H Group was gaining quite a lot of traction, as they were about to mass produce their new smartphone model, the ME2350. Once they successfully signed a contract with KCL Group, the entire technology industry would be entering a new era.
If the plan went smoothly, the industry would face a complete cleanse, with many of their rivals going out of business. In the next ten to twenty years, H Group would be on the absolute top, with an unreachable position in the field.
Yet, Stefan went missing just as he was supposed to sign this important contract with KCL Group�
�Could it be that their opponents are trying to take revenge, so that they could stop this project?!�
That assumption made Francine very frightened. She knew about the horrors and cruelty of the business world more than anyone, as that was exactly how she lost Tristan.
�No, let�s call the police. Stef has to be safe� he has to!� Francine trembled as she punched in the numbers, her eyes reddening.
She only had two sons after all, and she viewed them more important than her own life. If she lost Stefan too, she simply had no reason to live on.
�Miss Francine, don�t panic just yet. Stef is a strong man, so he shouldn�t be in danger. If I had to guess� Could it be that he went looking for Miss Everheart? They argued a lot on the way to the cemetery after all. So maybe he was regretting his actions, and wanted to ask for her forgiveness. They might be together right now,� Briar said in a kind voice.
