Chapter 139: Joker card day Emma waited anxiously for the pictures to load before she hurried back to
the dining room. She had the hard copy as well. She told Nora to send both the soft and hard copies to
her.
Benjamin looked up at her. “Emma, aren’t you eating?”.
Emma snorted and sat eventually. “I had to retrieve something urgently. You won’t believe what it’s all
about.” ” What are you on about this time, Emma? “Lucy inquired. “Before I proceed, I would like to ask
you a question. Can I proceed?”
Lucy regarded her for a moment. “Yes, sure you can go on.”

Grey looked up at this point. He knew what she was going to talk about anyways and he was patiently
waiting for it. “What would you do if your daughter’s husband cheats on your daughter? I mean
generally, perhaps from relatives and others. Would you agree for them to break up?” She sounded so
excited. “Sounds like she’s talking about Grey!” Smith joked.
Avery sent him a dirty glare.” Don’t start.” Smith laughed and continued to eat.
“You should tell us what you wanted to say instead of asking silly questions,” Benjamin said quickly
before Lucy would talk. Emma sent him a disapproving look. “Are you feeling guilty all of a sudden?”
Benjamin chuckled. “Why will I? You know that I will never cheat on you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmma nodded briefly.” I’m aware. That’s why it’s not directed at you. Instead, it’s at the man we called
a live-in son-in-law.” She announced suddenly.
All gazes turned towards Grey while he continued to eat. Avery was the first to speak. “What? Did you
cheat? With Caramel?” She blurted out.
“Caramel? Your friend?” Benjamin was confused. “Hey! Why will Caramel do something like that!”
Emma boomed. “It’s not her, it can never be her. What would that rich and beautiful lady be doing with
a loser like Grey?” She remarked.
Lucy observed Grey for a moment, then looked over at Emma. “Are you sure of what you are saying?”
Emma nodded briefly and severally. “I wouldn’t make a claim without evidence,” she responded
defiantly and retrieved some photos from her bag. She threw them on the table so that they would be
scattered and everyone would be able to look at them.
It actually showed when Nora gave Grey a peck but she managed to place her arms around Grey.
“Who the fuck is this?” Avery was enraged. She had never felt so jealous and angry but she couldn’t
stop the way she was currently feeling. “It’s Nora, his ex-girlfriend. So, dad, what are you going to do to
Grey? He violated your rules already. I think you should acknowledge the divorce already,” she rushed
the words, feeling pride in herself for the job well done. “Looks like the live-in son-in-law was busy
enjoying himself,” Smith joked. “Grey, is this true?” Avery fired, angrily. “What do you expect? It’s not
like you treated him like a husband anyways, do you?” Smith spoke again. Avery sent him a cold glare.
“One more word from you, Smith, and I won’t care that you are older than I am.”
“Hey! Stop it!” Lucy boomed suddenly, his voice cutting short what Smith was about to say. He
regarded the pictures for a moment. “Are you sure these pictures are real?”
His question shocked Emma and for a moment, she couldn’t really gather a word. Lucy has never liked
Grey. Even though he didn’t allow them to get a divorce but he silently hoped that his daughter had
gone for someone else instead of Grey. Emma knew all these! And she was confident that her plan
would work.
“Of course, it’s real. Do you think it was photographed?” Emma watched Lucy closely, noting the
expression on his face. “I have the pictures on my phone as well,” she retrieved her phone and went
through it for a moment before she stretched it towards Lucy. Lucy stared at the pictures for another
moment, finally believing before he turned towards Grey. “Grey, is this true?” He asked calmly.
Emma blinked once, then twice. She wondered if she was daydreaming. There was no way Lucy was
taking it so lightly. She found it strange.
It turned out that it wasn’t only Emma, Avery was also watching Lucy, skeptical as to what was really
happening. It felt like it wasn’t her grandfather. Grey cleared his throat meaningfully. “No, it’s not true.”
Emma felt a stab of annoyance at his response. “Dad! Why would you even question him? Do you think
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe foolish boy was going to give you a straightaway answer?”
Lucy looked up at her.” Calm down, Emma,” then he looked at Grey again.” Why should I believe you? I
have the evidence staring right in front of me.” Grey nodded once.” You shouldn’t trust me without
evidence. I_.” . “Exactly, father!” Emma interrupted quickly.” You should allow them divorce. Why would
we keep a son-in-law that is a disgrace? He might disgrace the Robinson someday,” Emma
complained. “I have evidence,” Grey announced suddenly, startling Emma. Everyone stared at him in
shock. Emma whipped her face towards him as if she didn’t hear him clearly. “What did you just say?”
Grey smiled. “I have the evidence,” and he retrieved his phone.” We will all listen to it so that there
won’t be any doubts.” He played a voice recorder and placed it on the table.
Actually, after several hours of thinking, Nora eventually decided to tell Grey everything. Little did she
know that he was recording it. He didn’t tell her as well.
He only told her to desist from all forms of evil acts and be good for once.
Nora had promised him to change but it looked like she didn’t. She still wanted to take Emma’s money.
So, she begged Grey to let her kiss him for the last time. It was supposed to be a goodbye kiss,
according to what she told Grey. It was at that time that the shot was taken. Actually, Grey saw Tracy
but he acted ignorant of it. He knew that Emma was going to bring up the topic and he was patiently
waiting for her. That day was a Joker card day! And he still had one more card to give out.
