A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased

Chapter 111

Only a few words were spoken, numb and calm.

The lethality of it to Grace was nuclear, leaving her dumbstruck, her cheeks burning as if she had been slapped multiple

times.

Jake and Aubree were dumbfounded, while Skyler couldn’t help but reveal a sinister smile.

After tonight’s events, she had a clear understanding of Grace’s character. This woman who was sly and had used her as a pawn was not fit to be part of the Sawle family!

What are you stopping for? You should beat her to death with a stick and never look back!

“Brother Joseph… Don’t you still want me, Brother Joseph?!”

Grace was shocked and scared. She grabbed Joseph’s arm tightly and tears streamed down her face as she asked, “Just because Raya is from the Thorp family, are you going to abandon me? Do you regret it?!”

“It doesn’t matter if she’s Raya or Chloe; it has no bearing on our marriage.”

You still don’t understand? Joseph slowly and resolutely withdrew his hand. His beautiful and stunning peach blossom eyes were icy. “I told you before not to cause her any more trouble, but what about you? Don’t you understand?”

“You repeatedly framed and slandered her, made rumors again and again and pushed her to the forefront, I can’t fathom why you detest her so intensely.”

“No, Brother Joseph! I just want you to be aware of Raya’s character. I don’t want you to be fooled by her again!” Grace, panicking, rushed forward, but Joseph, unexpectedly, stepped back, leaving her in a sorry state, almost falling.

“She has been deceiving you from start to finish! For someone so wicked with hidden intentions, you want to end our relationship of over a decade… Won’t your heart ache?!”

“She deceived me, yet she never caused me or anyone else any harm.

Thinking of the radiant and lovely smile he had once worn on his face, Joseph’s eyes filled with tears. He spoke the last sentence in a frigid tone, “That’s it. You and I are done. Take a moment to consider if we are meant to be together.” Grace watched the man leave, her throat feeling as if it were being choked by an invisible hand, leaving her unable to breathe.

How could it… How did it get to this point?!

Did that mean her dream wedding would turn to ashes? No! She had to marry Joseph even if she died!

For over a decade, she had been plotting, and she wouldn’t let Chloe, that tramp, destroy her scheme!

“Hmph, my grandson is devoted to love, but he’s no pushover. He can still tell right from wrong! Miss Brown, I thought you. could at least act like you were married to Joseph before showing your true colours. I didn’t think you’d be unable to hide your foxy ways so soon.”

The more Rory spoke, the angrier he became. The tip of his nose was red. “You brought this on yourself. You keep blurring the lines between right and wrong, stirring up trouble, and intimidating Raya!”

“Mr. Sawle,” Secretary Webb murmured, “Young Madam is now known as Chloe. She is no longer referred to as Raya…”

“Aiyo, what does it matter!” Rory exclaimed. “Isn’t it just one person?”

Grace’s fingers intertwined and clenched until they were red, her anger so intense that stars seemed to dance before her eyes, shame and fury coursing through her.

Skyler shrugged her shoulders and was about to burst into laughter.

“Let’s go, Webb! Go back and heat up a pot of delicious wine for me! And prepare some side dishes and I’ll make a few servings!”

“This, Mr. Sawle, you’ve had quite a bit to drink today for your birthday. For your own wellbeing, would you like to…” “My spirits are even higher than when I was celebrating my birthday. If I’m asking you to get it ready, you should do it. You’re so particular

Rory talked incessantly and, upon finishing, departed with Secretary Webb.

The atmosphere in the living room was utterly dreadful. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Jake! Jake, you gotta talk some sense into Joseph! Now that everyone knows about the marriage, there’s no way he can go back on his promise. How can the Sawle Group possibly save face now?!”

Aubree was so enraged that she shook Jake’s arm wildly, just like Grace. “You’re Joseph’s dad, he’ll surely heed you! Grace has been waiting for him for so long, how can he say he won’t wed and not wed?!”

Chapter III

Jake usually had a great fondness for his pampered wife, but at this moment, he was ensnared by her and his tone was a bit chilly. “What’s Joseph’s disposition like? Is this the first time you’ve met him? He’s never been rash when making decisions; he always takes his time to think things through!”

“Back then, Joseph hadn’t even mentioned the divorce to me. Now he’s wanting to call off the wedding, and it’s even more unfathomable to mel”

“Can that be the same?!”

Aubree’s voice was sharp and harsh, not as gentle as usual, “Joseph doesn’t have any romantic feelings for Chloe, but he and Grace have been close since they were kids they have a real bond!”

“Yes, I really don’t get it. Since the bond is so strong, what is there to be discontented with your niece? Why can’t she be a faithful companion to Joseph and not insist on seeking out Miss Thorp to be displeased with?”

“Tonight, in front of Stefan, your niece performed such an infamous act of catching adulterers. That would be a huge embarrassment to the Sawle Group! I’m unable to assist her with this situation. This marriage can go ahead, but I’m powerless to do anything about it!”

Jake thought of Old Master’s ridicule towards him and felt his chest tighten. He coldly glanced at Grace and said, “If I’d foreseen this outcome, I would’ve warned Joseph against divorcing!”

“He not only failed to get married, but also kept causing trouble for his family, to a degree that could not be forced to change!”

Aubree’s shoulders drooped upon seeing that the head of the family was no longer concerned, as if a mountain of gold and silver in her hands was about to collapse.

“Aunt… what should we do now, Aunt… Grace’s eyes were swollen like walnuts, and she couldn’t even draw a breath.

“Hahaha! You earned it!”

Skyler wiped away her “sickly face” and clapped her hands and chuckled. “I let you take advantage of me! I let you scheme against me! You, a two-faced and selfish woman, want to marry my second brother? You’d better get some rest!”

“When did I employ you? When did I conspire against you?”

Grace wiped away her tears and argued, “The banquet is so huge. There are so many people, and I don’t have three heads and six arms. I asked you to collaborate with me so we can achieve our goal in one go. It’s totally safe….

“Furthermore, I didn’t allow you to interfere with Young Master Anderson from start to finish. You acted unilaterally and meddled with Young Master Anderson’s cup, which caused such a mess…”

“You’re actually blaming me? You have the audacity to blame me?! You damn woman, why didn’t I see through you sooner? Just watch, I’ll rip your mouth apart!”

Skyler, not as shrewd as Grace, said nothing but glared at her with red eyes. In a sudden move, she grabbed Grace’s hair and yanked down her diamond hair card worth more than a hundred thousand dollars, as well as a lock of Grace’s hair, causing her to scream in pain.

Aubree was confronted with a spectacle of sisters tugging at each other’s hair.

“Alright everyone, cease and desist!”

Aubree roared in anger, while Grace and Skyler, panting with red eyes, pulled at each other’s messy hair.

“I’ll count to three, all of you, release! One! Two! Three!”

The two women who were like two angry horses fiercely released each other as soon as she finished speaking.

-“Skyler, you go back first. I have something to say to your sister Grace, Aubree said coldly, her eyebrows furrowing.

“Mom! Grace schemed against me! If she hadn’t tricked me tonight, how could I have lost such an important person! Mom!” Skyler was unwilling to let go of her disorganized “chicken nest

“Don’t you have any accountability whatsoever?! I’ve emphasized multiple times that you can’t be too rash when it comes to Young Master Anderson’s affairs!”

“You’re so impetuous, yet you still want to cook rice with rice? How can you be so frivolous, like the daughter of a wealthy family? You’re only making Young Master Anderson look down on you more and more! Why don’t you go back and take a look at yourself?”

Skyler, always fearful of her mother, shot Grace a fierce glare before turning to leave.

Grace clutched her wrinkled skirt, standing still and feeling a chill in her heart.

Yes, a real daughter of a rich family wouldn’t do such a thing, but what else could she do?

Aubree would fight for whatever Skyler wanted for her, while Grace had to rely solely on her own hard work, Aubree was just using her as a pawn to keep Joseph in check.

Aunt, what happened this evening…”

Pa!

Aubree, her face contorted in anger, raised her well-manicured hand and, without uttering a word, delivered a sharp slap to

Grace.
