Chapter 684


    Despite John’s persistent questioning, the human resource managers would not reveal to him who


    else, apart from Stone Group, was putting an end to his professional career.


    John knew that someone had Serenity and her sister’s back. He thought it was Elisa at first, but now it


    seemed there was someone more powerful than Elisa standing behind the sister.


    Who could it be?


    The person had the power to stop anybody from hiring him in Wiltspoon.


    Having lost his confidence, John decided to wait until Grandmom was out of the hospital and send his


    grandparents back to their hometown before figuring something out in the new year.


    “What do we do now?”

    Stuart was anxious. “Whoever’s behind Serenity and her sister must be some sort of big shot. They’re


    the reason for our job losses and business failures. You’re feeling the pinch too even though you don’t


    run a huge business.


    “Mike, we can have a family meeting when your grandmom is out of the hospital. We should apologize


    sincerely as Serenity had asked and see if things will change for the better.”


    Serenity mentioned that they should apologize for framing the sisters, tarnishing their names, roasting


    them, and putting them in the face of cyberbullying.


    Mike was hesitant.


    “It’s bad enough as it is. What’s so difficult about issuing a public apology online? We can offer gifts to


    Liberty and her sister after the public apology. We must clean up our act and apologize this time.


    Things might be better when the sisters put the matter behind them.”


    Mike uttered resentfully, “It was too much of Serenity and Liberty. Sure, we started it, but it was only a


    Twitter post. So, we hired people to troll them, but they fought back too. It’s been hard on us thest


    two months. We suffered quite a huge loss.


    “We’re even now, but the girls won’t back down. Must they push us this far?”


    Mike was not ready to forgive and forget.


    He added, “They can’t let go of their resentment toward us and still hold the incident against us, Dad.


    It’s likely we won’t ever reconcile with the sisters. I can bet my money that they will try and take back


    their parent’s property.”


    “That is our family’s home base. They’re married, so they shouldn’t have a share of the property. The


    girls don’t have the right to do so!”


    “Dad, all children have the right to inherit the property. It’s just a custom in our town to leave the


    inheritance to sons.”


    “What should we do now? We clearly don’t have the upper hand.”


    Stuart said with utmost regret, “We shouldn’t have done that. Your grandmom could’ve used her


    savings to pay the hospital bill. It was enough to cover the bill if each of us contributed a little.


    “But none of you was willing to fork out the money. We tried to make the girls pay instead. Do you


    remember what Liberty did when we asked for family support during her wedding? We should’ve


    known the sisters are no pushovers. They were only youngdies back then.”


    Mike sort of regretted it too, but there was no point crying over spilled milk. What was done was done.


    The Hunts could only continue what they started.


    “I’m going to go around to see if I can find out who has the sisters‘ back.”


    Mike even pondered killing the girls. He could look for someone to finish them off.


    Nevertheless, since Serenity got Noah locked up in jail after the stunt he pulled, Mike had to quit on


    that thought.


    They should apologize and go from there.


    Mike would resort to more desperate means if nothing changed after the apology was made.


    Even if he had to go down, he was taking Liberty and Serenity down with him.
