Chapter 141
Serenity chuckled and said, “I heard Granddad and Grandmom are doing well in the hospital; eating well, sleeping well, and coming down on me pretty hard too. They don‘t seem to think they‘re in the wrong. Are you sure they want to apologize to me?”
Mike wanted to jump to his grandparents‘ defense, but no words came out of his mouth.
Grandmom and Granddad did not genuinely accept their faults. Instead, the Hunt family persuaded them to do so. The family wanted to put everything behind them before things got more out of hand for them.
With both parties‘ reconciliation, the public interest would soon wane and they would be distracted by the latest trending news. It would not be long before the netizens forgot about the Hunts, and the family would have their peace back.
If there was one thing the Hunts learned, it was that the internet was a powerful force that worked like a double edged sword. While the internet could be a tool to attack someone, those who abused it would suffer devastating consequences when their actions backfired on them.
“Now, if there‘s nothing, I‘d like you all to leave. Don‘t crowd my place and get in the way of my business.‘
Serenity showed them the door, refusing to engage with them any further.
The Hunt boys scowled.
Standing in a corner, Jasmine and Shawn gave them a warning look.
A while later, John said, “Serenity , you should learn to forgive and forget. Don‘t burn your bridges.” Turning on his heel, John walked out.
John was the brightest among his family members in the same age group. In fact, he was the most accomplished out of everybody in his town.
Praise and flattery followed him everywhere back in his hometown. With Serenity putting him in the spot, John was not going to stand there and take the humiliation.
John resented Serenity and believed she had no regard for family. They were cousins, for goodness‘ sake! The whole family was close when Serenity‘s parents were still around. However, Serenity and Liberty started clashing with the rest of the family after the passing of their parents.
Serenity would jump at John‘s throat if she knew what was on his mind.
