The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 146

Chapter 146 It seemed that Old Master sensed the resentful gaze directed at him, and he glared back fiercely. “What are you looking at? Get down on your knees! You troublesome brat, don’t think this is over just yet!” From the tone of his words, it was clear that the Old Master had no intention of letting Tom off the h ook. Grace pondered for a moment and chimed in with a smile, “Grandpa, the main reason I came today was to take Tom back to the filming set. His shooting is nearing completion, and it wouldn’t be good if he dropped the ball at this point. I will personally take him to apologize to Carlos. I will also educate him properly about this matter.” The old man looked at Grace, then at Tom, and nodded in satisfaction. “Alright then, I’ll entrust him to you. I can rest assured.” “Thank you, Grandpa, for your trust. Shall I take Tom with me now?” She spoke while giving Tom a signal with her eyes. Tom held his swollen body and struggled to get up from the ground. The butler, seeing his condition, grew somewhat concerned. “Old Master, why don’t we have the Second Young Master take some medicine before he leaves? It’s too difficult for him to endure the pain and continue filming.’ “What medicine? Why should my little Grace wait for him? He should remember this lesson while enduring the pain. He must not be absent from the charity gala tonight. Do you understand?” “Understood.” Tom pouted, his face sullen. Grace suppressed her laughter and looked at Old Master Zhuo. “Grandpa, I’ll take him with me now. I’ll come to visit you when I have free time.” After saying that, she walked forward and supported Tom as they limped out of the ancestral hall. When they were far away from the hall, Tom asked, “Sister Grace, you’re not really going to take me to

the hospital to apologize to that sc umbag, are you? Please don’t!” Grace pressed her lips together and raised an eyebrow. “Then tell me first, why did you get into a fight?” Tom lowered his head in frustration. Because he had been beaten on his buttocks and legs, his walking was uncomfortable, and he was sweating from the pain. After hesitating for a moment, he said, “Because I heard him bad-mouthing you behind your back, saying really unpleasant things. So, every time I saw him, I gave him a beating… Iliss… As he spoke, he accidentally moved his injured area, causing him to grimace in pain. Grace chuckled. Why did she suddenly find him silly and a little cute?

“If that’s the reason, why didn’t you just tell Grandpa directly?” Tom replied, “Even if Grandpa knew, although he might not have beaten me as severely, once he and the butler knew about Carlos’s offensive words towards you, it wouldn’t be long before all the ser vants in the Walker family found out. I didn’t want to tarnish your reputation.” Listening to his explanation, Grace grew more and more curious about what Carlos had said about her. www Bonaire and His Hillaire Ex wife Chapter 146 “Do you have a recording? Let me listen to it.” Tom followed Grace into her car and played the audio of Carlos’s words for her. “I heard that Tom’s backer in his entertainment agency is a wealthy abandoned woman from a prominent family. Or maybe she’s an orphan? It’s really strange how she managed to obtain the operating rights for Angle. She must have slept with Patric! However, I saw her appearance during the final showcase of the previous talent show. She looks decent, but it’s a pity she’s just a facade!” After listening. Grace’s face turned dark. Tom said with a fiery temper, “Da mn it, after hearing it again, I really want to punch him!” All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Grace stopped him. “You better behave and go back to the filming set. Leave this matter alone.” “Are you kidding me, Sister Grace? You’re planning to let him go like this?” Grace raised an eyebrow, a mischievous smile forming on her lips. “Who said I was letting him go?” The most difficult thing to control in this world was other people’s mouths, but whether she listened or not was another matter. Since she had heard it, with Grace’s personality, it was impossible for her to act as if nothing had happened when she returned. She pondered as she drove to Frant City’s Studio, and she called her agent’s assistant to come and pick him up. Tom clung to the car door, unwilling to get out. “Sister, do we really have to film today? There seems to be an action scene, and I just got beaten up. I can’t possibly shoot.” Grace took out a tube of anti-inflammatory ointment from the car’s glove compartment and handed it to him. “I bought this for you when I came. Apply it in the rest area of the filming set, rest more, and take the day off today. But you have to catch up with the shooting schedule afterwards.” Tom was touched. “Indeed, sister, you care about me the most. I will always be your most loyal little puppy!” “Don’t be cheeky: go now.” Tom chuckled a couple of times and was about to open the car door, but then thought of something and turned his head. “If I manage to continue filming today, I’ll try my best not to delay the progress. But for the charity gala tonight, Sis, can you accompany me?” When it came to this point, it was clear that he wanted her to go. Grace nodded in agreement. “Okay.” After Tom happily left, she called Eleven. “Arrange for someone to keep an eye on Carlos from the Brent family at the hospital. Once he is discharged, put a sack over his head and give him another beating. I feel like he prefers staying in the hospital. Remember not to leave any marks or evidence.” Understood, Miss.”

After giving her instructions, Grace drove back to Angle. – Edgar was also investigating the matter regarding Nancy. The investigation results were similar to what Grace had found there was little progress. Furrowing his brows, Edgar’s mind was filled with a raging fury. His black eyes were deep and cold. “That woman suddenly disappeared at such a crucial moment. This matter is definitely not simple: 1- www The Willinunten an Chapter 145 don’t know if this wave is targeting Grace or if someone is targeting me. So we must investigate! Investigate thoroughly!” Seeming somewhat exasperated, Eric sighed. “But she seems to have vanished without a trace, without any clues or evidence. Boss, do you think it’s possible that she never left the prison?” Edgar fell silent for a moment. “It’s impossible. She must not be in the prison, but she might still be in Frant City, hidden by someone.” Who could this “someone” be? As he pondered, Edgar’s phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, someone he had stored in his phone but had never communicated with before. Jade. The call connected, and a woman’s laughter, as melodious as a silver bell, came through. “Cousin, it’s been many years. I wonder if you still remember me?” “What’s the matter?” Edgar got straight to the point, his tone cold. Jade continued to laugh. “Oh, cousin, you’re still so aloof. But there is indeed something important today. There’s a charity gala tonight, and I sincerely invite you to attend as my escort. I wonder if you’re willing to give me face, cousin?” Edgar’s brow barely furrowed, but his evident disgust was not concealed. He was about to firmly refuse. As if anticipating what he would say, Jade preemptively continued speaking.

“Cousin, don’t be so quick to refuse. I heard that Grace will be attending with Tom tonight. I heard that Tom’s attitude towards Grace is not ordinary.” Upon hearing this, Edgar fell silent.. Jade continued. “One is the boss of Angle, and the other is the face of Angle. If there were any intimate actions between them at the banquet, and news of a romance spread, wouldn’t it become a sensation across the internet? Cousin, are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?” Tom’s interest in Grace hadn’t been a secret for a day or two. Edgar’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, seemingly pondering something else. “Fine, I’ll go with you.”
