Chapter 317

Renee smiled awkwardly, unsure of how to respond. She knew that Francine was arrogant, but she didn't know she could be so bold.

Had Francine just come here to boast about her relationships?

"How dare you!" Jack slammed the table, his face fierce as he shouted," Do you think you're in Beach City? This is the Baldwin family's territory. If you dare to continue this nonsense and upset my wife, then don't blame me for hurting you!"

Francine rolled her eyes and remarked sarcastically, "Oh, I'm so scared. Jack, we used to be childhood sweethearts, and your wife and I were really close when we were kids. How can you threaten me like this?"

"You!" Jack was so enraged that he clenched his fists, about to hit her.

When Renee saw this, she immediately stood in front of Jack and calmed him down. "Uncle Jack, don't be mad. Miss Milford is known for being rude and blunt. Just think of her as an underdeveloped child, okay? There's no point in arguing with a child."

She was able to endure the years in the Hunt family because of this mindset. Francine wasn't a bad person, it was just that she had an annoying personality and her words were usually harsh.

Honestly, Francine was actually a good person. Among the rich in Beach City, she did the most charity and would always donate lots of money to help those in need. Hence, even if Francine bullied Renee a lot in the past, Renee never hated her.

'That's right. Listen to Renee. Don't get mad at a mad woman." Sophia scoffed as she and Jack finally calmed down. Renee turned to Francine and said, "Miss Milford, if there's nothing else, please go home. This is a family banquet, and an outsider like you shouldn't be here."

Although her words seemed harsh, she was just trying to protect Francine. The Baldwin family wasn't a tolerant family - they were like the royal family of Sutton with the military in their hands.

If anything happened, Francine's identity as Mrs. Hunt wouldn't help much.

"A family banquet?" Francine smiled elegantly. 'You're not family either, but you're still sitting here."

Renee was speechless. 'I can't help her anymore!'

Francine had been protected well over the years, so she was oblivious and had absolutely no sense of danger.

Suddenly, Austin said coldly, "Francine, the Milford family was indeed connected by blood to the Hunt family, but that ended the minute the Milford family married into the Hunt family. Just tell me why you're here, or else, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
