Chapter 154 An Easy Target

Besides, these rich, young women usually just enjoyed life without taking their work seriously.

Their families strongly believed they should learn how to manage the family businesses from Grace, so they naturally regarded her as their idol.

“I can’t help it. I need to take a photo with my idol for my social media! It’s bound to get lots of likes,”

“I’ll get an autograph as well! Then I’m going to frame it and hang it in my living room.”

“Celia, you coming?”

Celia looked completely puzzled. She couldn’t understand how her friends could regard Grace

as their idol.

“No. You …” She didn’t even get to finish her sentence because her new companions couldn’t be bothered to listen. They were already rushing excitedly

“Ms. Lewis, may I take a photo with you?” one of the women asked.

Grace was caught off guard by their sudden appearance as they ran toward her.

“I’m sorry, but I have to decline your request,” she responded politely when confronted with so many unfamiliar faces.

The young women appeared to be disappointed.

“Ms. Lewis, I’m a huge admirer of yours. Can you please sign this for me?” one of the women

asked.

Grace couldn’t make sense of it. “I’m sorry, I’m not a celebrity, so I can’t sign anything for

you,” she replied.

“But you’re our idol!”

“Indeed, an idol, pretty please?”

The women pleaded. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Grace found herself feeling a mix of amusement and bewilderment. How had she become their

idol?

The next moment, Celia walked up to her in high heels, looking somewhat disgruntled. ” Grace, are you showing off?” she asked with an unpleasant tone

The young women were all taken aback and asked, “Celia, do you know Ms. Lewis?”

Celia snorted. “Not only do we know each other, but we were quite close. Haven’t any of you

“Ms. Lewis, that is, Grace, used to be my sister–in–law, but she’s divorced my brother now and was even driven out of our family,” she answered without holding back.

Celia looked smugly at Grace.

Deep down, she couldn’t help but think that once these women discovered the truth, they would likely lose their admiration for Grace. She found it quite

Timothy, who was sitting at the table as well, couldn’t tolerate it any longer when he saw Celia insulting Grace,

“Where did you get your d*rty mouth from? The restroom? Have you been eating shit?”

The rich, young women couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter upon hearing him.

Celia pointed at Timothy and shouted angrily, “What are you saying? You, a little nob*dy, must be Grace’s new favorite, right?

“She’s a woman with a long list of past relationships. Do you even know if you’re the umpteenth for Grace?”

She was truly asking for trouble!

Violence against women should never be condoned, but if it had been an option, Timothy would have intervened long ago.

“It seems your parents didn’t teach you proper manners,” Grace said with a stern expression, her tone unfriendly.

Celia remained unapologetic. “Did I say something wrong? Aren’t you the one getting

involved with men left and right? How can you play the righteous role when you’re such a slut?

Grace swiftly slapped Celia without warning.

Celia shouted, “Grace, have I been too lenient with you, or have I become an easy target for you? You’ve actually hit me again!”

Grace calmly rubbed her hand. “You’re right. It was quite effortless. Since your parents didn’t do their job, I’ll teach you a lesson myself.”
