Chapter 724 The Hunts Who Plot Against One Another

Nora was standing upstairs and watching the intense discussion downstairs.

She clearly saw that Justin had trembled lightly when Mrs. Hunt walked out.

Nora sighed silently.

Justin might never have ever thought that his grandmother, who had raised him into an adult, would also be part of the group of people plotting against him.

How sad and lonely must that man surrounded by his so-called family members be right now?

Justin was a man who had always been scheming and inscrutable, so he didn’t say anything

When we got married, we had clearly vowed that we would never abandon each other for the rest of our lives, but unfortunately, you have offended someone you should not have.”

When Herman said that, there was sorrow in his eyes as he gazed at Iris.

To be honest, hadn’t he also loved Iris when he was young?

In fact, one could even say that he still did.
