At the Lovett family's residence.
"Oh my God! Hunter! What happened to your nose!?" Hunter, who was knocked to the ground by Justin's heavy punch, was diagnosed with a broken nose at the hospital. His sense of smell might be damaged in the future, so he might not be able to distinguish between scents.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was quite fitting for someone like him who could not distinguish right from wrong.
The main issue was that he had to extract a part of his ribs to support his nose and undergo plastic surgery. How embarrassing! Seeing that their son was beaten up, Neil and Chelsea were shocked and angry. Chelsea almost had a heart attack. "Hunter! Who beat you?! You're a famous lawyer. Who would dare lay a finger on you?!" "Mom, don't ask anymore. It's someone we can't offend." Hunter got angrier as he thought about it, but more than that, he found it difficult to explain.
"A few days ago, you said you took over Chairman Salvador's wife's drug case, so you've been busy around the Salvador family these days." Neil pondered, and his face darkened. "Shannon and Ms. Bella are mortal enemies. Since you accepted the Salvador family's case, it means you've offended Ms. Bella. Did she beat you up?" Humiliation spread throughout Hunter's body, and he gritted his teeth so hard it hurt. "It was Justin who took action, but under Bella's instigation! Hmph... Anyway, the two of them are one entity, so there's no difference in who made the move!" "That brat from the Thompson family... She's too much!" Chelsea clutched her chest and trembled in anger. “We did so much for the Thompson family. Your father was the head of the KS Group's legal department before he retired, and Steven worked as their son's secretary, bending over backward for them...
"Because of a case and personal grudges, she teamed up with Mr. Salvador to bully you and even beat you up? Do they think they can bully us just because your father has retired, and they think we're useless now?!" "Mom, calm down. You have heart problems." Hunter quickly acted as a filial son and comforted his mother. "The Thompson family is going too far, especially Bella! She's spoiled by Chairman Thompson!" Neil was also fuming. "I've worked hard to raise my children, but the Thompsons treat my son as a servant and even resort to violence. How dare they! Steve even toldhe wanted to take the youngest Thompson daughter as his wife! He won't marry anyone else!" Hunter's ears perked up when he heard that. He asked, "Steve wants to marry the mistress's daughter?" "Your brother has lost his mind. He was enchanted by the youngest Thompson daughter and had a fight with us a few days ago." .
The mention of the mistress's daughter had struck a nerve with Chelsea. She felt that Steven was 190 good for Amelia. Our family is not their dumping ground. It's not enough that we spend almost half of our lives cleaning up their mess. Now, we have to let our youngest son marry their lousiest daughter, too? They're taking it too far!" .
"Indeed. Steve is an outstanding and talented young man. He can marry whoever he wants. How could he choose a mistress's daughter?" .

"People only respect Celeste because Chairman Thompson still wants her. vers I If he gets tired af Celeste one day, it's possible that he will just kick them out of the house. What will happen to Steve at that time? Does he need to support them financially? Our family will beca joke!" .
The Lovett couple felt a chill down their spines, feeling afraid.
Hunter looked worried on the surface, but he wanted to smile slyly because he knew that the truth was not as he said.
Steven would beca billionaire's son-in-law if he really married Amelia. If so, the Lovett family would probably need to rely on Steven for glory.

Hunter was the eldest son, and the pride of the whole family. Thus, hen would never allow his youngest brother to surpass him. No matter brathama what, Hunter was determined to tear this couple apart. .
