Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Even If You Have No Shame (1)
Claire North was overjoyed; if it weren’t for the many people watching, she might have jumped up in delight.
Susan Kensington also breathed a sigh of relief, revealing a secret smile.
Finally, finally, it’s time to drive Raina North away.
She glanced at the ecstatic Claire North and quickly flashed a look of disdain in her eyes; a mere Claire North was nothing to fear.
Besides, Claire North had those weaknesses in her hands; whenever she desired, she could kick Claire out and make room for Rhoda.
Susan Kensington mulled over these thoughts but restrained herself, instead looking at Vincent Hawthorne and softly reminding, "Vincent, the elders are watching, say something."
Vincent Hawthorne snapped back to reality, seeing Raina not making a fuss, his expression eased: "Since you’re willing to divorce, The Hawthorne Family won’t make things difficult, pack your things, and leave with your child."
Jasper Hawthorne frowned, noticing his brother wasn’t around, and just as he was about to speak, Felix Hawthorne jumped out.
"Old man, you intend to dismiss sister-in-law just like that? What about compensation? Alimony? We should give her ten, maybe eight billion, as a gesture, right? It would be too embarrassing for us not to give a single penny. People would point fingers at The Hawthorne’s backbone. Besides, even if you have no shame, you can’t disgrace my big brother."
Vincent Hawthorne’s face suddenly darkened: "She caused such a commotion, isn’t The Hawthorne already doing right by not holding her accountable? Still want compensation? Why not ask for the sky!"
"Talking like this is just not respectable; sister-in-law’s affair is nowhere near the chaos you stirred up back in the day. Even when my grandpa kicked you out of The Hawthorne Family, you weren’t mistreated. Villas, shops, funds, stocks, and shares in The Hawthorne Group—what did you lack? Instead of learning from such fine traditions, you gang up with a bunch of old men to bully a young woman with a child. Aren’t you ashamed? Truly shameless?"
Felix Hawthorne’s indiscriminate attack made those family elders and uncles look extremely displeased.
Vincent Hawthorne was furious, glaring at Felix Hawthorne: "Shut up!" Then turned to Susan Kensington in anger: "How exactly do you teach your son daily?"
Susan Kensington’s face turned blue and white, looking terrible, she walked quickly over and pinched Felix Hawthorne hard.
"Ouch!" Felix Hawthorne cried out in pain: "Mom, what are you doing! Are you trying to murder your own son?"
Susan Kensington could no longer stand it and scolded furiously: "Shut up! You shut up!"
"Hey, not even allowed to speak the truth?" Felix Hawthorne couldn’t help but complain, seeing his mother continue to glare, he quickly covered his mouth: "Okay, I won’t speak anymore, alright?"
Then, with a shameless grin, he ran behind Jasper Hawthorne, smiling sycophantically at him.
With helpless parents, he had no choice but to cling tightly to the big tree himself; otherwise, how would he continue living a life of luxury when his father grows old?
Jasper Hawthorne gave Felix Hawthorne a sidelong glance, snorted coldly, and for the sake of Felix being sensible enough, decided to endure him for a while.
Susan Kensington saw this and couldn’t help but clench her fingers, filled with hatred, unable to tolerate her son’s submissiveness in front of Autumn Forrest’s child.
That woman, Autumn Forrest, apart from knowing how to be born well, was there anything else she was better at!
Wait until Rhoda enters the picture...
But now, this wasn’t the most important thing.
Susan Kensington said: "The people from the civil affairs bureau have been waiting outside for quite some time."
Vincent Hawthorne suppressed his anger: "Go call Elias Hawthorne to come! Tell him if he dares not show up, I, his father, will personally invite him!"
The servant responded and quickly went to find Elias Hawthorne.
