Chapter 65: Justin’s Hypnotic Voice

Sephina sat in the hospital chair, glaring at her husband with thinly veiled displeasure. "So, you’ve been visiting Natalie’s place every night? If Clara hadn’t told me, I would’ve been left in the dark."

Albert, equally displeased, met her gaze. "Do you tell me everything you do before making decisions?"

"If you’re referring to announcing Briena as the heir to the Ford Group, I had no choice," Sephina replied defensively. "I needed to divert attention from the shame Natalie brought to this family on her wedding day—"

"Or to cover up the embarrassment Briena caused with that press conference," Albert interrupted, his tone sharp.

"That was a minor mistake on Briena’s part," Sephina dismissed with a wave of her hand. "Now tell me where Natalie lives. I want to see what kind of hooligan she’s married."

Albert shook his head. "I won’t tell you. And, he’s not a hooligan, but a well-mannered, hardworking young man. You’ll meet him when Natalie decides it’s time."

Sephina’s voice grew sharper. "He’s my grandson-in-law. Don’t I have the right to meet him?"

Albert’s eyes narrowed. "So you can mock her even more? Just because he’s not from some wealthy family?"

"Oh, so she really has married someone ordinary," Sephina scoffed, her tone dripping with disdain.

"He might be ’ordinary’ now, but mark my words, he’ll make a name for himself. I see success in him."

Sephina scoffed. "Men like him are skilled at fooling their way into rich families, acting well to impress. But mark my words, I will not accept someone like him. I’ll have Natalie divorce him and find her a man worthy of the Ford family—a man who deserves to be our son-in-law." Her voice was laced with determination.
