Chapter 1755
“Sorry, I’m not quite following you.” Rosalynn’s voice was cool. “But I did hear about the gang wars on your end.
So? The Hunt family, who’s been under the Jared family’s wing for two generations, is now on the brink of collapse
without our support?”
Lucia’s face reddened with rage. She glanced at Hunt, who had lost an arm in an attack earlier that day.
At first, Lucia had just wanted to use Hunt for her own revenge.
But over the past couple of months, no matter how much Hunt had been oppressed or betrayed, he had steadfastly
declared he wouldn’t abandon her.
Lucia had loved many men in her life, but no man had loved her like Hunt had.
She just couldn’t bear to see Hunt end up dead and dismembered because of her.
“If I died, would the Jared family start backing Hunt again?” Lucia asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRosalynn chuckled after hearing this. “Mrs. Hunt, we’ve been through this plot already. Hunt rejected the Jared
family’s trade-off proposal”
“So what do you want me to do to spare Hunt?” Lucia demanded angrily. “Rosalynn, do you really think you’re
blameless? After all, Heatherway and Robert are dead, you’re unscathed, and even Wayne, who disappeared, has
returned! What else could you possibly want? What more do you need to vent?”
Once Lucia had finished her rant, Rosalynn calmly said, “Lucia, we’re adults. You should know that everyone’s
current situation is their own doing. The Jared family did a lot for Hunt, but he took it for granted, even looked down
on Hilaria who supported his rise to power. This is why, even without you, Hunt would lose the Jared family’s
support. And if Hunt crashes and burns after losing their support, gets replaced by another gang, it just shows that
Hunt is essentially impotent. The Jared family won’t back a useless traitor.”
“Fine!” Lucia spat out viciously. “If you’re not planning to leave us a way out, then we’re sworn enemies. Bring it
on!”
As Lucia hung up the phone, Rosalynn thought she heard a man’s pained, hoarse voice on the other end, calling
Lucia’s name.
Rosalynn calmly dialed Hilaria after hanging up.
I’m chatting with Ivy about her little crabs. Hilaria answered, sounding cheerful.
“Ivy has really relaxed these past few days. She’s been having a blast, but I’m just worried that when the vacation is
over and we have to go back, she won’t want to leave, Rosalynn said with a hint of helplessness.
If she likes the house that much, we can just buy one in H City.” Hilaria suggested generously. “At dinner, Jaime was
telling me he wants to move to a bigger estate”
“There are plenty of big estates, but that would make it inconvenient for Cory and Ivy to go to school, Rosalynn
answered.
“We’ll figure something out,” Hilaria said, then quickly changed the subject. “You didn’t call just to chit-chat, did
you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Lucia, Heatherway’s mom, called me,” Rosalynn answered.
“Lucia?” Hilaria laughed coldly. “With the way she’s been talking, I thought she didn’t know the meaning of the word
‘fear”.”
Hilaria laughed again. “She’s scared of me, the stern Mrs. Jared. She knows you’re a pushover, so she doesn’t dare
call me, only pesters you. What a wimp
Rosalynn chuckled at Hilaria’s sense of humor.
“Hilaria, is your end goal to kill Hunt and Lucia?” Rosalynn asked.
“I’ve said it before, if Hunt is willing to give up all his powers and leave Lucia, this matter could be resolved.
Unfortunately, Hunt is neither willing to give up his powers nor leave his woman. He insists on playing tough. What
can I do?” Hilaria’s voice was cold.
Since finding Gabriella and having Cory and Ivy, Hilaria’s mindset had changed significantly
In the past, would she have given Hunt a choice? Would she have let Hunt cling to life for over two months? Hilaria
would have cracked down hard and dealt with it quickly.
