Chapter 394: Chapter 394: A Good Show Is About to Begin (Part 2)
Jasper Hawthorne quickly added, "She’s my sister-in-law! My own sister-in-law!"
"Yes, yes, your own sister-in-law," Aidan Lynch said. "Speaking of which, we really should thank Claire North. If it weren’t for her, Raina North wouldn’t have married in."
Elias Hawthorne raised an eyebrow, indeed, they should thank Claire North. Speaking of which, if Claire North didn’t have some merit, she wouldn’t be able to jump around outside.
"Speaking of Claire North, I’ve just got the latest scoop," Jasper Hawthorne said, noticing Elias looking over. "The North family mother and daughter are up to something again."
"No way, they’re up to something at this critical juncture? Are they really not afraid of dying fast enough?"
"Maybe they just have a death wish."
Aidan Lynch nodded, "True, as they say, when the sky wants to rain, a mother wants a home, and the North family mother and daughter want to die, no one can stop them."
Jasper Hawthorne couldn’t help but chip in, "Hey, that sounds pretty rhymed!"
"Of course," Jasper tossed his hair. "I’m a gifted young master!"
...
At this moment, in the Shelby family’s living room.
Beau Shelby was accompanying his parents watching the live broadcast.
When Aaron Warren filed a complaint against Raina North for the third time, Beau Shelby’s hands tightened by his side, his eyes fixed on the TV screen, full of tension.
Walter Shelby furrowed his brows.
Only Mrs. Shelby remained calm, she said coldly, "I always thought this Raina North was troublesome, look at what she’s done. Doesn’t seem like a girl from a good family. Good thing I didn’t let Beau marry this woman back then. Otherwise, our family would be the biggest joke now."
Walter Shelby couldn’t hold back after hearing his wife’s words, "Alright, hold your tongue, show some grace!"
"Is it my tongue lacking grace? Clearly, it’s Raina North’s actions lacking grace..."
Before she could finish, Master Foster appeared, his mere mention of "Void" silenced Mrs. Shelby completely.
"This... this..."
This turn of events left everyone stunned.
The one who couldn’t accept it the most was Mrs. Shelby, "Raina North is Void, she’s Void!"
Walter Shelby, who had been mingling in the business world for years, understood better than Mrs. Shelby what Raina North’s identity represented, and could not help but shout angrily, "It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you back then causing all kinds of trouble, insisting on our son marrying that Claire North, now Ghost Doctor Nowhere would be my Shelby family’s daughter-in-law!"
Mrs. Shelby, accused by her husband, jumped up immediately, "How was I causing trouble? Are you saying you didn’t think of breaking off the engagement and letting Beau marry the real North family’s daughter? Now you see Raina North soaring, and you blame me!"
"Wasn’t it because you kept nagging in my ear? You said a fake daughter-in-law of the Shelba family would make you lose face when you went out!"
Listening to the mutual accusations and scolding of his parents, Beau Shelby stood up from the sofa and walked upstairs with heavy steps.
The voices of his parents continued to echo, and he vaguely heard his mother suggest that he win Raina North back, saying they weren’t put off by those two little bastards tagging along with her.
But how could that be possible?
Raina North had always been a proud girl.
Ever since he had collaborated in drugging her to faint so that his mother could draw amniotic fluid from her belly for examination, there was no possibility between them anymore.
No possibility at all...
Beau Shelby repeated this phrase, feeling a dull ache in his heart.
He suddenly realized, he had lost the most important thing in his life.
...
When Raina North, holding Baby Hawthorne’s hand and accompanied by Faye Shelby and Anya Forrest, walked out of the court, she was stunned by the scene before her.
The previously quiet court entrance was surrounded by a crowd so dense not even a breeze could pass through.
As soon as they saw her, they erupted in a thunderous cheer.
