Rural Belle & Three Heirs by Harper Hall

Chapter 310 Break Them Up

Adelaide was left speechless by Anissa's words.

She'd heard rumors that Anissa wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed, but she hadn't expected it to be this bad.

Trying to keep her cool, Adelaide said, "Mrs. Martin, you've got it all wrong. I didn't mean to use Louis to pressure you."

"After all, Louis is the head of the Martin family. The family's current standing is largely thanks to him. We should respect our elders."

"Even if you want to call off the engagement between the Davis and Martin families, you should at least get Louis's opinion. Don't you think?"

However, Adelaide's words didn't seem to clear things up for Anissa. She snorted and snapped back. "Louis is getting old and making poor decisions. Besides, Grant is my son. As his mother, I have the right to decide his engagement. Louis should mind his own business."

Anissa's blatant disrespect for Louis took Adelaide by surprise.

Adelaide let out a cold laugh, keeping her expression neutral.

Anissa continued, "This engagement must be off. I'm going upstairs right now to take my son away and make sure he never sees Chloe again."

"And I expect you to keep your niece away from my son. Adelaide, you should take your niece back to your home in the Northwest as soon as possible."

Anissa's unreasonable behavior made Adelaide clench her fists.

Sovereign City belonged to everyone, not just Anissa. Even if the Davis and Martin families called off the engagement, Anissa had no right to drive the Davis family out of Sovereign City.

With this in mind, Adelaide prepared to counter Anissa.

But just as she was about to speak, a slightly lean man, flanked by two bodyguards, appeared in the hospital lobby.

Seeing Anissa, he walked straight up to her and slapped her hard across the face.
