Susan knew about Vincent Hawthorne’s concerns, and she tried to reassure him: "No matter what, there will be a resolution today. Once Raina North is locked up, you won’t have to worry about her clinging to Elias anymore. Elias will gradually understand your good intentions as a father. In some time, we can arrange for a daughter-in-law that suits us, and with her mediating, Elias will become closer to you."
"Easy for you to say, as if finding such a person is easy." Vincent Hawthorne said this, but his expression softened significantly.
At that moment, a young man sitting beside them, dressed in top luxury brands—to the point where you could almost see the words "wealth and prestige" written on his forehead—lazily spoke up: "I actually think big brother has good taste. Look at Raina North’s looks, her figure, her voice... Ah, simply a heavenly beauty. What man could refuse such a woman? Honestly, I’m looking forward to my big brother divorcing Raina. When that happens, I definitely want to experience it."
Vincent Hawthorne’s face turned livid upon hearing this, and he angrily said, "You wicked child, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Susan also tugged at the young man: "Felix, you must not speak nonsense; look how you’ve angered your father."
Felix Hawthorne muttered, "I’m not talking nonsense. I’m truly interested in Raina North. Such a daring woman, the thought of it really excites me."
Vincent Hawthorne, overwhelmed by anger, clutched his chest and breathed heavily, almost fainting.
"Vincent!" Susan was scared and quickly supported Vincent Hawthorne, urgently taking a pill from her pocket and pushing it into his mouth. Seeing his breathing become calmer, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Without waiting for Vincent Hawthorne to speak, she turned and grabbed Felix Hawthorne’s ear: "Felix Hawthorne, if you want to die, just say so. I’ll grant you your wish!"
Susan was genuinely terrified this time. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Nove1Fire.net
If Vincent Hawthorne had truly been angered into some mishap, she feared she would be kicked out immediately. The old matriarch of the Hawthorne Family had long disliked her!
Thinking about this, she didn’t hold back at all.
"Ah!" Felix Hawthorne screamed miserably, clutching his ear: "Pain, pain, pain, mom, it hurts so much, my ear is going to fall off. Please let go." Seeing Susan ignoring him, he turned to plead with Vincent Hawthorne: "Dad, save me, your son’s ear is coming off. Can you bear to let your precious son be earless?"
Vincent Hawthorne was indeed angry with Felix’s words earlier, but ultimately, he couldn’t bring himself to be harsh with the son he cherished in his hands: "We’ll deal with him when we get back!"
"You just keep pampering him!" Susan released her grip but still gave her son a resentful glare.
Felix hawthorne rubbed his ear and retreated to the side.
Susan looked at her son’s careless demeanor and could not help but sigh deeply in her heart.
Back in her early acting years, to maintain her figure, she consumed vegetarian diets for years, compromising her health. After marrying Vincent Hawthorne, she couldn’t conceive for a long time.
For ordinary people, having offspring is important, let alone for a prestigious family like the Hawthornes.
Moreover, she was in a difficult position at the time and urgently needed a child to secure her status.
To get pregnant, she consumed endless medicines, endured countless injections, and prayed numerous times before finally succeeding.
Because of this, the child was raised delicately, and by the time she realized, his temperament was already unchangeable.
If her son weren’t so hard to mold, she wouldn’t have brought Rhoda over with the intention of having her marry Elias Hawthorne; after all, Rhoda was...
Susan dimmed the light in her eyes and gave Felix a sharp look: "Behave yourself; if you cause any more trouble, you’ll be thoroughly dealt with when we get home!"
