Many people said that Betsy Russell was tightly controlled by the Hughes family, and they suspected that the Russell family would eventually become part of the Hughes family.
The thought alone gave Slevin Russell a headache. Even if he wanted to explain, he couldn't make himself clear and was left speechless.
He could imagine Sir Hughes' smug face, perhaps even planning to make Betsy and Jared Hughes remarry.
Early the next morning, Slevin received a call that immediately darkened his face.
Sir Hughes was indeed relentless.
"Good morning, Mr. Russell!"
Slevin had put the phone on speaker. Sir Hughes' pleased voice came out of the phone, which made his face even darker.
As Evelyn Campbell brought out the milk and bread from the kitchen, she happened to hear the voice on Slevin's phone and her expression darkened as well.
That damned old man, slandered Betsy, and now hypocritically wanted to marry her, he was dreaming!
