Chapter 2297

Alexander took a deep breath and analyzed logically, "This wasn't Stef's style. If he wanted to snatch her away,

he would have done it openly in front of everyone. But this trick was cunning and dishonest!"

"Yes, you're right, but this is a special case. If he didn't use a trick, his woman would marry someone else. It's

normal for him to be restless."

Although Francine agreed with Alexander's analysis, she felt that Stefan could do anything if it concerned Renee.

Naturally, he would stoop this far.

"Regardless, we have to leave," Alexander whispered to Francine, sensing danger. "Austin has always been

decisive and cruel. Since Stef humiliated him, I'm sure he wouldn't let Stef off easily. We're in danger too."

"Is it that serious?" Francine looked at Austin, who was standing on the stage. He coldly ordered his assistant

about something. It seemed like he wasn't that crazy.

"I don't care what he'll do. We have to get out of North City right away because this city is controlled by the

Baldwin family. If we don't leave soon, we might not be able to."

Alexander grew anxious. He felt like Austin would target him and his wife first.

They were aware this was a dangerous trip and had cwith a few bodyguards who could fight well, but they

might not be able to win if they had to fight against the Baldwin family, since this was the Baldwin family's

territory.

Hence, they had to leave hurriedly since there was still a chance.

"Okay, let's go. You're such a coward!" Although Francine was complaining, she walked quickly. She and

Alexander passed by the guests and headed toward the entrance of the hall. Alexander had made the right

guess. Austin, full of wrath, would not let go of anyone related to this affair.

"I want to make an official announcement here in front of everyone. From now on, my family will never make

peace with the Everheart and Hunt families!"

Austin held the microphone and faced all the guests while declaring war on the Hunt and Everheart families.

At the stime, Alexander and Francine were blocked just as they were about to exit the hall.

"Mr. and Mrs. Hunt, you can't leave now. Please walk this way."

Two guards holding rifles blocked Alexander and Francine. The assistant who had talked to Austin just now was

speaking to Alexander and Francine darkly.

"Hey, you must be joking! I'm here for the engagement ceremony. Since it can't be carried on, | want to go

home. How could you stop me?" Francine boldly faced the frosty assistant, her tone full of confidence.

"You can't go hnow. Please cwith me." The assistant bowed to them politely, but he sounded cold and

domineering.

"What if | insist on leaving?" Francine refused to give in and demanded coldly, "Do you want to kidnap us?"

"No, you can't put it that way." The assistant remained impassive. "We're simply inviting you to the manor as

guests."

Then, the assistant ordered the two guards. "Take them away."

When the guards received the order, they pressed the rifles against Alexander and Francine's foreheads to take

them away forcefully.
