“Your daughter-in-law?”
A playful expression crept onto Haze’s handsome face.
So the well-dressed woman in front of him was Francine Milford, Renee’s former mother-in-law.
“As far as I know, Miss Everheart is currently single. It’s a bit inappropriate for you to claim to be hermother-in-law like this.”
“What do you know?”
Francine raised her chin high and said, ’If she’s my daughter-in-law for a day, she’s my daughter-in-lawfor a lifetime. Until the day she remarries, no one can replace my position as the “mother-in-law”.”
Haze put his hands in his pockets and chuckled. “In that case, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. I’mactually here to take Miss Everheart to meet my parents. If everything goes well, she’ll have a newmother-in-law soon.”
Francine already had an impending sense of crisis before this, but after hearing what Haze said, thesense of crisis became even stronger. She immediately interrogated him, “Who are you? Who are yourparents? What’s your relationship with Renee?”
Before Haze could answer, she added confidently, “Do you know how much Renee loves my son? Doyou know how much she yearns to be Mrs. Hunt again? It’s only a matter of time before she remarriesmy son. There’s no way she would go meet your parents with you.”
“Oh, really?”
Haze raised his eyebrows and smiled even wider. “Should we go ask her right now how much sheloves your son and how much she yearns to be Mrs. Hunt again?”
“Ahem!”
Francine immediately pursed her lips and said, somewhat guiltily, “There’s no need forthat. Let’s waitand see what happens.”
If they really were to go ask Renee now, Francine’s lie would be exposed for sure. She would never dosuch a humiliating thing!
“Anyway, I advise you not to waste your time. Her ex-husband is Stefan Hunt. There’s no way shewould fall for a nobody!”
Haze was not upset. Instead, he said cheerfully, “Like you said, let’s wait and see what happens!”
After leaving the Hunt Villa, Francine rushed to the headquarters of H Group.
When the employees saw her, they knew trouble was coming. They quickly immersed themselves intheir work and tried to keep a low profile.
“Where’s my son? I want to see him right away!”
Francine went all the way to the CEO’s office on the top floor, slammed the table and asked thesecretary.
“Miss Francine, the CEO is in an executive meeting. Why don’t you wait for him in the lounge? I’ll makeyou a cup of tea.”
“No! This can’t wait!”
Without saying another word, Francine headed straight for the meeting room and pushed open thedoor. ’Son, this is urgent. Get out of there. I need to tell you something!”
Stefan was sitting tall and imposing in the center like a king. He frowned when he saw his mother. “I’min a meeting. Whatever you want to tell me, it can wait.”
Francine rushed in impatiently and said, “Who cares about the meeting? You’re about to lose your wife!You need to act now!”
“Wow!”
As soon as she said that, dozens of H Group’s executive members exclaimed in surprise under theirbreaths, unable to maintain their solemn and serious expression any longer. They were eagerly waitingto hear more of the gossip.
After all, the H Group was, without a doubt, the place that contained the highest number of “stans” ofthe “Renee-Stefan ship”.
Stefan rubbed his temples. He wished he could dig a hole and jump into it.
He got up and, while walking out of the meeting room, told Francine in low voice, ‘We’ll talk in myoffice.”
Francine nodded with satisfaction and said, “That’s more like it!”
After they left, the senior executives of H Group immediately discussed with each other what justhappened.
“I knew it, our CEO hasn’t moved on from his wife. He’s gonna win her back now!”
‘ I bet 100,000 dollars that Renee and Stefan will get back together!” “I’m not optimistic. The CEO’s wifelooks like the kind of person who wouldn’t look back. I bet 500,000 dollars that it’s over for them!””100,000 dollars on reconciliation!”
