Ch. 2481..2490

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2481-Therefore, they had no other solution unless they had the right liver.

There were things in this world that no amount of money and no amount of power could solve.

In the days that followed, the Mitchell family’s grief-stricken performance in front of the reporters at the hospital’s entrance and the online apology by Amber Mitchell’s former attending doctor had gone viral online.

Besides, the police had announced that they would be investigating the matter.

There were all sorts of speculation online. Of course, most people believe that the Mitchell family did admit their healthy eldest daughter to the mental hospital by force.

After all, Louise Mitchell and Mr. Mitchell were holding all of Amber Mitchell’s shares on her behalf, while Louise Mitchell even married Amber Mitchell’s former fiancé, George Gregory.

Louise Mitchell was the biggest beneficiary after what had happened to Amber Mitchell no matter how one looked at it.

Many netizens were waiting for the story to unfold online.

Chapter 2481 2/3 Louise Mitchell came out of the police station with a nervous breakdown, only to face the camera flashes of reporters who had been waiting for her for a long time.

All kinds of tough questions were directed at her.

Louise Mitchell could only keep her head down and quickly got into the car with her bodyguards.

The police had been questioning her all day. At this point, there was no way she could even pay her way out because it was too big a deal now.

Everyone was waiting to learn the truth of the incident.

As soon as Louise Mitchell got into the car, she received a phone call from her father, but what he told her made her heart sink.

“The doctors who diagnosed Amber Mitchell with mental illness are now unreachable. Louise Mitchell, do you think someone has gotten to them, just like what had happened to the attending doctor? If their statements are consistent and they say we bribed them, our family…” There was evident panic in Mr. Xia’s voice.

The Mitchell family would not only become street rats but also bear criminal responsibility.

“How can they be unreachable? I met them the day before yesterday and they were still reachable!” Louise Mitchell fumed.

Chapter 2481 3/3 “Even if they’re suddenly unreachable, I only asked them to go into hiding for a while. What do we do now? Why don’t ‘t you… ask George to do something about this. He’s the son-in-law of the Mitchell family, after all. There’s no reason why he should just stand by and do nothing when the Mitchell family is in trouble,” Mr. Mitchell said anxiously.

Louise Mitchell only thought her father was naive.

After all, her father had been in the business world for a long time. He had met many people and encountered many situations over the years. How could he still be so naive?

The Mitchell family was already in such a state. George would have helped them a long time ago if he wanted to and would not have dragged this on until now.

The Gregory family had not done anything, which only indicated that they intended to look on and do nothing.

With that in mind, Louise Mitchell became even more resentful.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2482-After so many years of marriage, George Gregory’s heart turned out to be more ruthless than she had imagined!

If George Gregory was unwilling to help, she had to drag down the Gregory family with her. The Mitchell family could not collapse, and she could not let Amber Mitchell get everything back!

Louise Mitchell went to Gregory Corporation’s office building and walked in.

Everyone in the company knew the president’s wife, of course. They started talking as soon as Louise Mitchell stepped into the elevator.

After all, everyone knew about the latest hot news.

Louise Mitchell went to George Gregory’s office but was stopped by his secretary.

“Mrs. Gregory, the president is talking business with someone in the office right now. If you want to see him, you’ll have to wait.” “I have something important to talk to him about,” said Louise Mitchell.

Chapter 2482 “You still have to wait,” the secretary said forcefully.

2/3 Louise Mitchell was mad, feeling like the secretary was looking at her with contempt.

“What’s with that look? What’s the matter? Do you think even a mere secretary like you can look down on me because the Mitchell family is in trouble now?” Louise Mitchell snapped right away.

The secretary said calmly, “Mrs. Gregory, you’re overthinking.

I’m not.” “You’re not? Then why are you stopping me from entering Mr. Gregory’s office?” “Mr. Gregory said no one is allowed to enter the office and disturb him,” the secretary said.

However, Louise Mitchell immediately slapped her as soon as she said that. “I’m the president’s wife! If you don’t let me in, I’ll send you packing tomorrow!” “I don’t know when the Mitchell family became so influential that you can even fire my secretary at any time.” a man’s voice suddenly rang out.

Louise Mitchell froze in shock as she watched George Gregory and several senior executives come out of the office.

“George, I… I only want to see you, but your secretary stopped me,” explained Louise Mitchell.

Chapter 2482 3/3 “I ordered her to do so. She didn’t do anything wrong when she stopped you,” George Gregory said coldly.

His statement was equivalent to a huge slap in her face in front of everyone. Louise Mitchell’s face turned pale and red.

However, what embarrassed her more was when George Gregory added, “You’re my wife, but that doesn’t mean you have the right to dismiss anyone from my company. Besides, shouldn’t you apologize for slapping someone?” “Apologize?” Louise Mitchell was shocked. ‘How dare he ask me to apologize? How could he not think about how humiliating it’ll be if I apologize to a mere secretary?’ However, thinking of the Mitchell family’s current situation, Louise Mitchell could only apologize humbly to the secretary before entering George Gregory’s office.

Once she entered the office, Louise Mitchell complained grievously, “George, we’ve been married for years. Shouldn’t you spare me some dignity in front of others? What you did just now will only make the whole company know that the president’s wife was asked to apologize to a secretary. I’ll be humiliated.”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2483-“Don’t do humiliating things if you’re afraid of being humiliated.” George Gregory walked to the desk and sat down. “Did you come to my office at this particular time to ask me to help the Mitchell family?” “I’m your wife, and we have a son together. Isn’t it natural that you help the Mitchell family and me?” Louise Mitchell said.

“Nothing in this world is natural, just like how it wasn’t natural when I married you,” George Gregory said coldly.

Louise Mitchell’s expression changed. “Are you blaming me for using my pregnancy… to get you to marry me?” George Gregory did not answer the question but said indifferently, “The Gregory family won’t do anything to help the Mitchell family now that you’re in such a state. It won’t be good for the Gregory family if we make a move.” Listening to his cold voice, he only seemed to be analytically talking about the pros and cons of the matter!

Louise Mitchell felt a chill in her heart. ‘Does the man have to be so indifferent even at this time? If the woman who married him had been Amber Mitchell, would he still be so indifferent if the Mitchell family was in trouble?’ However, Louise Mitchell eventually swallowed her words.

Chapter 2483 2/4 “If the Mitchell family is in trouble, it’ll affect the projects that the Mitchell and Gregory families are working on. The Gregory family will also suffer huge losses,” said Louise Mitchell.

However, George Gregory said nothing, apparently having anticipated the losses.

Louise Mitchell said, “So, you don’t care about Simon either? If he has a mother who has been to prison, do you think he’ll still be able to remain in Deer City’s high society? Everyone will probably laugh at him behind his back! Having an ex-convict as a mother will be a stain he can never get rid of!” George Gregory’s eyes narrowed, and the chill in his eyes intensified. “It’s true that the Mitchell family sent Amber Mitchell to a mental hospital when she wasn’t mentally ill, then?” “Yes.” Louise Mitchell admitted it truthfully this time.

“Why?” he asked sharply.

“Sis held 35% of Mitchell Group’s shares. If my sister took over the company, how could my father, my mother, and I be able to live a good life? You know how much she hated us!” Louise Mitchell said.

George Gregory’s heart sank. He knew this.

“Is it just because of the shares?” Chapter 2483 3/4 “It’s also because I love you. But even though Amber Mitchell broke your heart, you still didn’t break off your engagement. I wanted to give you a way out and give myself a chance,” said Louise Mitchell. It even seemed as though she did everything for George Gregory.

“You…” George Gregory got mad. “I didn’t ask you to give me a way out!” “Would you have married Amber Mitchell if she wasn’t admitted to the mental hospital? Would you have married someone who betrayed your feelings?” Louise Mitchell asked.

George Gregory was speechless. Even he was not sure whether he would have married Amber Mitchell if that incident had not happened.

Even though he hated Amber Mitchell’s betrayal, he loved her!

Louise Mitchell paused before saying, “The doctors who diagnosed Amber Mitchell are unreachable. Others might have already gotten to them, just like what happened with the attending doctor. There might be more evidence online against the Mitchell family. If the investigation goes on and I’m sent to prison, Simon will have a criminal mother. Do you have the heart to do that to him?” George Gregory was silent as he pondered it.

Louise Mitchell did not urge him. She knew how much the Gregory family valued Simon. If George Gregory still did not do anything, she would go to the Gregory family’s elders. They Chapter 2483 4/4 probably would not want their grandson to have his mother be convicted and go to prison.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2484-“Okay, I can help the Mitchell family this time, but it depends on the Mitchell family whether you succeed,” said George Gregory.

Louise Mitchell looked happy. As long as George Gregory was willing to help, things would turn around.

“George, as long as you help the Mitchell family this time, the Mitchell family will never forget your kindness. When our two companies merge, the Mitchell family can cede more interests to the Gregory family.” However, George Gregory was unamused by Louise Mitchell’s statement. No amount of profit was good enough for him.

His ability to be happy had already vanished after the car accident back then.

Amber Mitchell did not expect George Gregory to take the initiative to meet her.

In the private room of a club in Deer City, she met George Gregory.

However, there was a buzz in Amber Mitchell’s ears. Confusion flashed across her face after she stepped into the private room.

Chapter 2484 2/3 Sitting in a chair, George Gregory explained indifferently, “It only affects the electronic devices you carry around with you by temporarily disabling them. Once you leave the room, the devices will return to normal. I just don’t want conversations in this room to be recorded.” “What’s the matter? Will our conversation be embarrassing?” Amber Mitchell asked sarcastically.

George Gregory gazed at the woman in front of him. The woman he used to love deeply was now looking at him with hatred in her eyes.

They were only a few steps from each other, but there seemed to be a chasm between them that they could never cross.

“I’ve learned that it was indeed the Mitchell family’s fault that you were sent to a mental hospital, but we can’t go back in time. Why don’t we talk about compensation now?” George Gregory said, looking as though he was negotiating a business deal.

“Compensation?” Amber Mitchell burst into laughter. “Are you saying you want to give me compensation?” “It’ll only cause the Mitchell family trouble if this goes on. It’ll bring no benefit to you. Your shares have long since been diluted and transferred away. You should think about how to get enough money to move on from this.” Amber Mitchell suddenly found the man in front of her unfamiliar. It was as if she had never known him.

Chapter 2484 Perhaps she had never known him to begin with.

3/3 George Gregory’s voice continued to ring in her cars. “I can get the Mitchell family to return the rest of your shares and give you another one hundred million dollars as compensation. Meanwhile, you can go abroad or stay in Deer City. If you go abroad, your accommodation and necessities will be provided. If you stay in Deer City, I can buy you a mansion, which will be better than the simple rental house you’re staying in now.” “What do you want me to do? You’re not giving me these benefits for free, are you?” She looked at him indifferently.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2485-“All you have to do is publicly state that you’ve recovered and moved back to the Mitchell family’s house. At least pretend to bury the hatchet with the Mitchell family,” said George Gregory.

“George Gregory, you know Louise Mitchell and the rest framed me and forced me into a mental hospital even though I was fine, but you want me to tell the public that I was a mental patient? I recovered because they put me in the hospital, and I’m grateful to them? You want me to pretend everything’s fine?” Her sarcastic voice made him frown slightly. “Since it has happened, you should think about your future life. Do you think you can depend on Grace and the Reed family forever?” “It turns out you don’t know right from wrong and good from. evil. You speak so nonchalantly. If someone had locked you up in a mental hospital for so many years in the best years of your life, would you be able to do what you just said?” Amber Mitchell said with amusement.

“What do you want?” George Gregory asked coldly.

She shouted, “What do I want? I want the truth to be revealed to the public and the Mitchell family to get what they deserve! Do you have any idea what it’s like for a mentally sane person to be forced to undergo treatment in a mental institution? Do you have any idea what it’s like to be abused like animals every day?

Even-” Chapter 2485 2/3 She jerked up her right hand. The gap where her missing finger should be was so glaring.

“Do you know how I lost this finger?” she asked with a chuckle.

However, her smile gave him a strange uneasiness. It was as if the truth would be too much for him to bear.

His lips opened and closed. He asked, “How… did you lose it?” “Remember the wedding ring you gave me? You left the ring. with me after buying it, and I happened to be wearing it the day I was admitted to the mental hospital. I was so upset and sad that day because I knew my and Herman’s car accident had made you the laughing stock of tMason Swansonty. Back then, I thought that I would marry you and love you forever if you believed that I never betrayed you. If you didn’t believe me, I’d break off the engagement, resist all abuse, and not let you suffer the slightest injustice.” The decision she had thought about thousands of times over came out of her mouth so calmly.

He had no idea how anxious she was when she made the decision.

She loved him and did not want him to suffer due to the incident, so she was willing to shoulder the burden herself.

However, she had no idea that fate would play such a big prank on her.

Chapter 2485 George Gregory’s expression changed slightly as if he never expected her to make such a decision.

3/3 “You said you wanted me to believe you, but how could I believe you loved me when you were like that with Herman Moss?!” he yelled while staring at her.

She smiled indifferently. “It seems that we wouldn’t have ended up together even if I wasn’t admitted to the mental hospital. It’s because you’ve never really believed me.” He was suddenly flustered. However, why was he flustered? He was still the high and mighty President George Gregory, while she was only the eldest heiress of the Mitchell family who had lost everything.

Amber Mitchell paused. “You might or might not believe what I’m going to say. I was wearing the ring when I was forcibly admitted to the mental hospital. Louise Mitchell said I didn’t deserve the ring. But my finger was red and swollen because I kept struggling when I was admitted to the hospital. I couldn’t take the ring off at all. Do you know what she did after that?”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2486-George Gregory suddenly gasped. Even if Amber Mitchell did not continue, he could figure it out.

1/4 “She had someone cut off my finger. She flushed it and the ring down the toilet. She said, ‘Amber Mitchell, you’ll never get to wear another wedding ring!”” The smile on her lips grew wider, while her eyes were full of sarcasm.

George Gregory suddenly felt a severe tightness in his chest. ‘So, that’s… how she lost her finger!’ He had no idea about it!

He seemed to be full of anger and guilt. He was mad that Louise Mitchell would do such a thing to her biological sister, and he felt guilty as he could have saved her back then.

He would have found something if he had investigated carefully. However, he deliberately told people around him not to mention her in front of him.

Though he hated her for betraying him and for making him the laughing stock of Mason Swansonty, he had never intended for her to end up like that.

Amber Mitchell put her hand in front of George Gregory as if to make him see it more clearly.

Chapter 2486 2/4 “Do you still think I should tell everyone that I’m mentally ill and brought this upon myself? Do you think the Mitchell family didn’t do me wrong, and my good sister spared no effort to find a doctor to treat my illness before I finally recovered?” she asked.

George Gregory could not speak a word. Her right hand seemed a hundred or even a thousand times more glaring than before.

“George Gregory, I don’t want money. All I want is justice! I want justice even if I have to break my bones for it!” Amber Mitchell said every word with great ease.

He could hardly take his eyes off of her.

He recalled her saying to him with a smile, “George Gregory, I don’t want money. I just want to be together forever. Can you do that?” He had replied to her without hesitation back then, “Yes. Amber Mitchell, I’ll never marry anyone but you.” He had broken his word in the end.

She wanted them to be together forever, but he failed her.

Now, she was going to get justice for herself.

Louise Mitchell was talking with her mother on the phone. “Mom, don’t worry. George has promised to help the Mitchell Chapter 2486 family. After all, he doesn’t want Simon to have an ex-convict as his mother. Amber Mitchell can’t make a scene if George is willing to do something.” “But Amber Mitchell seems to have the Reed family from Emerald City helping her,” Mrs. Mitchell said anxiously.

“The Reed family is only powerful in Emerald City. They have no say in Deer City,” said Louise Mitchell.

3/4 Just then, there was suddenly a bang. Someone kicked the door open and barged into the room.

Louise Mitchell was about to lose her temper but froze when she saw George Gregory looking sullen. “George, what happened to you?” “Did you cut off Amber Mitchell’s finger because she was wearing the diamond ring I gave her for our wedding?” George, Gregory asked sharply.

“I… I…” Louise Mitchell was astounded, not expecting George Gregory to ask her that. “George, did Amber Mitchell tell you some nonsense? She lost her finger when she self-harmed. It has nothing to do with me!” “It has nothing to do with you?” George Gregory’s expression was frigid. “Say to my face again that it has nothing to do with you.”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2487-Guilt flickered in Louise Mitchell’s eyes, but she said calmly, “It really has nothing to do with me!” George Gregory stared at Louise Mitchell intently. The next moment, he raised his hand and grabbed Louise Mitchell’s hand before pulling up her middle finger.

As if realizing something, Louise Mitchell immediately shouted, “No, George. I’m your wife! Would you rather believe the woman who betrayed you than me?” However, Louise Mitchell soon gave a piercing wail. Sounds of bones cracking rang out.

Her middle finger had been snapped.

“Does it hurt?” George Gregory asked indifferently.

Louise Mitchell covered her right hand, “Why… Why? I’m your wife! And she… she’s the one who betrayed you. Did you break my finger for her?” Louise Mitchell shouted with grief and anger.

“She betrayed me, but that doesn’t mean you can cut off her finger like that. Your pain isn’t a tenth of what she suffered then. If it isn’t because you’re my wife, do you think you’ll still be able to keep this finger?” George Gregory said coldly.

Chapter 2487 2/3 Louise Mitchell shivered suddenly. He had never forgotten Amber Mitchell.

“Do you believe everything she says? How dare you treat me like this for her? I’m the one who loves you with all my heart!” “Did you think I didn’t check before I came? The subordinates who were with you when you cut off her finger have confessed to everything,” said George Gregory.

Louise Mitchell’s heart sank. “I only wanted to help you out. A woman like her isn’t worthy to wear the ring you gave her!” C George Gregory looked coldly at the woman screaming in front of him.

However, there was no emotion in his heart no matter how pained her expression was.

He… did not love this woman because the one he loved… was Amber Mitchell, the woman who betrayed him!

“I gave her the ring. Even if she doesn’t deserve it, I should be the one to take it back. I didn’t need you to meddle in this. Besides, she was still my fiancée when you cut off her finger. Who gave you the right to cut off her finger?” He looked condescendingly at her. There was not the slightest heartache and reluctance in his cold eyes.

His gaze made Louise Mitchell feel like freezing water had Chapter 2487 drenched her from head to toe, making her feel cold all over.

“What’s so good about Amber Mitchell? Why are you still obsessed with her when she has betrayed you like that? Why do you despise me when I love you wholeheartedly?” Louise Mitchell shouted.

George Gregory was silent.

3/3 Even he wanted to ask himself why… he was still obsessed with Amber Mitchell.

In the following days, news broke online that the doctors who diagnosed Amber Mitchell as mentally ill had been detained by the police.

The police were investigating the case further.

Although the police did not release any further information about the situation, it was all over the internet. Many of them pointed their fingers at the Mitchell family.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2488-“Didn’t you say George would help the Mitchell family? But he’s not helping. He has done nothing!” Mr. Mitchell snapped.

Louise Mitchell said with a ghastly expression, “Amber Mitchell was the one who caused all this trouble.” “You’re useless. You failed to capture George Gregory’s heart even after all these years,” said Mr. Xia.

Louise Mitchell’s expression instantly became one of embarrassment. “My in-laws will come back with Simon in two days. Even if George Gregory doesn’t intervene, I have ways to ask my in-laws to step in and help the Mitchell family. The Gregory family can’t afford the embarrassment if I go to jail!” “Are you sure they’ll help?” Mrs. Mitchell asked anxiously.

“You know how much they dote on Simon. Besides, George Gregory doesn’t have any mistresses. Simon is the only heir of the Gregory family!” Louise Mitchell said.

Mrs. Mitchell felt a little relieved when she said so.

Just then, a servant suddenly hurried in. “Master, Madam, Miss, there are police officers outside saying they’re here to take you to the station for questioning.” The Mitchell family was surprised.

Chapter 2488 2/4 A police officer came in and read out their names before they knew it. He then said, “We suspect that you three are involved in Amber Mitchell’s case. Please come with us. Also, Miss Louise Mitchell is involved in causing intentional bodily injury to others.” A police officer came up and handcuffed the three members of the Mitchell family.

Their expressions changed immediately. Mr. Mitchell shouted, “We’ll cooperate with the police’s investigation. But are you handcuffing us just because you think we’re suspects? I want to see my lawyer! I’m going to sue the police.” “You can follow the normal procedures and get a lawyer, but you three are now suspects and need to be detained temporarily!” Mr. Mitchell and Mrs. Mitchell looked frightened as soon as they heard that. Louise Mitchell stared at the cold handcuffs on her wrists. What was happening was beyond her expectation.

Since the police were arresting them, they probably had substantial evidence.

They could only count on the Gregory family now.

‘I just have to delay things for a couple of days until my in-laws come back with Simon. Then, we can turn things around!’ Louise Mitchell thought to herself before giving her parents a look, indicating them not to speak carelessly in the police station later.

Chapter 2488 3/4 Mr. Mitchell and Mrs. Mitchell came to their senses and knew what to do when they saw the look in their daughter’s eyes.

However, the three members of the Mitchell family were surrounded by reporters when the police led them out of their mansion.

དོན་ The reporters rushed to the Mitchell family with questions.

Without saying a word, the three got into the police car.

Almost five minutes later, the first news about the three members of the Mitchell family getting into a police car went viral online.

Then, more related news appeared online. They were surging in popularity.

Amber Mitchell looked at the news about the arrest of three members of the Mitchell family on her phone. She looked at Grace. “Did you do this?” Grace smiled. “I just submitted the evidence I collected to the police, including the transaction records when they bribed the doctors and the doctors’ oral statements.” “The news said the police are investigating Louise Mitchell for causing intentional bodily injury to me. Did you submit the evidence for that too?” Amber Mitchell asked.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2489-Grace said, “Not really. Someone left a file at my hotel room door and rang my doorbell. I opened the door and saw the file. There was a detailed description of how you lost your finger and a list of people who were there at the time.” Amber Mitchell was shocked. “Who left the file?” Grace said, “I’m not sure. That person wore a cap and a thick coat. They left after making sure I had seen the information. They took a taxi outside the hotel and deliberately avoided the surveillance cameras on the road. The car had a fake number plate, so we couldn’t find it.” Grace said. All this was seen on the surveillance footage afterward.

“Who is it?” Amber Mitchell was puzzled.

“Whoever it is, they probably gave it to me to help you or because they have a grudge against Louise Mitchell.” Grace surmised.

‘Help me? Who else would help me but Grace and Kyla?

‘the Moss family?

‘But the Moss family probably won’t do such a thing. Even though Herman’s car accident wasn’t an accident, the Moss Chapter 2489 family will only focus on finding the real culprits rather than trying to prove that Louise Mitchell did cut off my finger.

“Then… who else?

‘Who did that for me now that I have nothing?’ 2/3 “By the way, when are you leaving?” Amber Mitchell stopped thinking about who helped her and asked Grace about her plans.

Grace said, “The day after tomorrow. I’ll arrange for my lawyer friends in Deer City to contact you. You can consult them about any legal matters.” “Thank you,” Amber Mitchell said gratefully. She had said thank you many times these days.

“Thank me? You can come to us anytime if you’re willing to come to Emerald City later,” said Grace.

“Okay, I’ll think about it,” said Amber Mitchell.

Grace left Amber Mitchell’s apartment and was about to get into her car when a car suddenly pulled up and stopped in front of her. A woman got out.

When Grace saw her face, there was a flash of surprise in her eyes.

This woman looked 70% like her. The way she dressed was also similar to hers, and that added a little more similarity.

Chapter 2489 3/3 “You must be Grace.” She smiled at Grace and said. “Hello, I’m Whitney Cooper, Brian’s private secretary. I’ve been looking forward to meeting you. I knew you were in Deer City, but I didn’t know where you were staying. I only found out where Amber Mitchell lived, so I came here to try my luck. I didn’t expect to really see you here.” In other words, she had intentionally come to look for her! Grace could not help pressing her lips together as she looked at the face similar to hers.

‘Brian’s private secretary….. Is Brian looking for substitutes again?

‘Is the woman in front of me my substitute?’ After all, she knew Brian had kept one substitute after another by his side during their years apart.

“You wanted to see me?” Grace asked.

“I would like to talk to you, Mrs. Reed. I wonder if you’ll allow me to have the chance?” she said politely. However, Grace was disgusted by the person in front of her.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2490-Perhaps it was because she seemed gentle and polite, but there was a hint of calculation in her eyes.

1/3 “Okay, we’ll talk here, then,” Grace said, wanting to see what she was trying to do.

Whitney Cooper looked at the two bodyguards beside Grace and said reluctantly, “I don’t want other people to hear what 伦 I’m going to say to you, Mrs. Reed. Why don’t we talk about it somewhere else?” “That will be difficult because my husband has arranged many ‘other people’ around me to protect me. Even if we go somewhere else, they’ll still be there and hear whatever you have to say,” said Grace.

Whitney Cooper’s eyes glimmered with displeasure, but it quickly disappeared. Her face showed a sad expression. “Well, I hope you can cut off his yearning for you once and for all. You have a happy family now. You have two sons and a daughter. Surely, you don’t want Brian to suffer alone.” With that said, Whitney Cooper said with feigned self-mockery, “I know I’m only your substitute rather than a secretary to Brian, but I truly love Brian and wish him well. But there are so many things I can’t do.” Grace stared at the woman in front of her. Although she seemed Chapter 2490 2/3 modest, polite, and concerned about Brian, Grace had met many people over the years. She could see that the woman had ulterior motives.

“So what do you want me to do?” she asked nonchalantly.

“I wish you’ll say some ruthless things to Brian to make him give up so that he can truly move on,” said Whitney Cooper.

“And what good will it do you?” Grace asked.

“Me? Of course, there’s nothing in it for me…” Her eyes flickered as she answered.

Grace chuckled. “I see. I thought you’d gain something out of it and that’s why you especially came to see me.” “I’m only doing it for Brian’s sake. I hope he won’t dwell on the past anymore. Mrs. Reed, will you agree?” Whitney Cooper said with expectant eyes.

Whitney Cooper thought that as long as Grace spoke harshly to Brian, Brian would be hurt and depressed again. She would then take the opportunity to comfort him and even find a chance to sleep with Brian.

If she were lucky enough to get pregnant, she would have a bright future!

“Okay, I got it,” Grace said indifferently. With that said, she went past Whitney Cooper to get into the car.

3/3 ‘Huh? Is that all? Did she agree? She’s not going to say anything else?’ Whitney Cooper subconsciously tried to stop Grace but was stopped by Grace’s bodyguards.

“Mrs. Reed, are you really going to make things clear to Brian?” Whitney Cooper asked in a panic.

“Whether I do is between him and me. You’re just a secretary, so do what secretaries are supposed to do,” said Grace before looking back at the face similar to her younger self. “I’ve never thought that one person should be another person’s substitute. Everyone is their own individual.” Whitney Cooper bit her lip slightly as she complained in her head, ‘Anyone can say nice words like that!’ However, she could only be a substitute if she wanted to stay with Brian.

Even so, a substitute like her would win over Brian’s heart sooner or later!
