Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife

Chapter 1318: Chapter 1357: Downfall

But Francine Howards hadn’t yet seen Dorian Howards, and she was already stopped at the door by Alice Conley.

"If you’re planning to have Dorian help plead with Kyle Kinston and take care of your family’s mess, then I’m really sorry, but my Dorian doesn’t have time for that!" Alice Conley said to Francine Howards with a fake smile.

She and Francine Howards had never liked each other, so there was no need to save face.

Francine Howards, hearing this, furiously retorted, "Alice Conley, on what grounds are you stopping me from seeing my cousin?!"

"Just because I’m his wife!" Alice Conley snapped back impatiently, "Francine Howards, do you think during those six years you were hypnotizing Kyle Kinston that I didn’t expose you because I was afraid of you? Or because I was worried Kyle would die if he found out the truth? To be blunt, I just didn’t want Dorian to be upset. Those years you were in the limelight, feeling triumphant, did you ever think about the foundation of that success and pride? Truth be told, this is just you reaping what you sowed." Alice Conley had no sympathy for Francine Howards.

Those years, seeing Francine Howards’ smug look, Alice couldn’t count how many times she felt it wasn’t fair to Mabel and cried tears over it.

Francine Howards was seething with anger, "It’s not your place to preach to me!"

"I don’t have the time to preach to you either. In short, your glory ends here. If you still have any malicious thoughts, you better put them away early!" She wasn’t going to let her husband help Francine Howards, only for this woman to turn around and hurt Mabel again!

Just as the two were about to break into a fierce argument, Dorian Howards finally appeared. But towards Francine Howards, he had the same attitude as Alice. "Francine, you should leave Falling City with Uncle and Aunt. As for Kyle, I’m not going to plead for you. I’ve said all that needs to be said. If you can genuinely curb your greed and live quietly, then maybe you’ll be safe in the future. If you still fantasize about obtaining what doesn’t belong to you, then I’m afraid you’ll face dire consequences."

It could be said that this was Dorian Howards’ final warning to his cousin.

"Cousin, did that bitch Alice Conley say something bad about me in front of you? Is that why you’re being so heartless towards me? She’s always had a problem with me, you shouldn’t..." Francine Howards’ words were abruptly cut off by Dorian Howards.

"Shut up, Francine Howards! If you dare say another bad word about Alice, then from this day on, you and I have nothing to do with each other!" Dorian Howards looked visibly angry.

Francine Howards was stunned, clearly her cousin’s regard for Alice Conley surpassed everything else. She couldn’t obtain any help from him at all.

Francine Howards left in a huff. Her phone rang; it was another call from the bank pressing for payment, further unsettling her. Just then, a car suddenly stopped in front of her. To her surprise, it was Gu Fengtian, the leader of the East Bamboo Assembly, who previously had done quite a bit to undermine Mabel Quinn and Kyle Kinston at her behest.

"What are you doing here?" Francine Howards asked irritably.

"Of course, I came to see you." Gu Fengtian smiled faintly, "How’s it going, Miss Howards? A fallen phoenix isn’t even as good as a chicken!"

Francine Howards was trembling with anger, "What do you mean by that? It’s not your place to comment on me either."
