Chapter 33 Fight for the Spotlight
“I respect your decision,” Zoey replied decisively.
“Call me if you need anything. I’ll be there.”
“Thank you.” Grace had just hung up when Emily leaned over.
“What are you going to do? That bitch is so infuriating!”
“Aaron’s taking me to a banquet hosted by Pamore Chamber of Commerce tomorrow night. Every
single rich person in the city will be there. That’s where I’ll expose her.”
Emily cheered her on. “Heck yeah, babe! Destroy them!”
The next night, people showed up wearing flashy outfits that shone under the blinding spotlights. It was
a lively event.
Grace showed up fashionably late with her floor–length, diamond–studded dress. It was handmade and
showed off her figure perfectly in a luxurious yet elegant way.
No one could look away from her. Her makeup was stunning, accentuating her beauty. It gave her a
sharp, cold look that intimidated people.
Every rich girl who read the tabloids started gossiping when they noticed Grace.
When Celia showed up with a champagne glass in her hand, they crowded around her with

“Celia, is Grace really your sister–in–law, like the headlines said?”
“Yeah, look at the photos! It looked just like her, and honestly, she kind of looks pretty.”
“Ew, someone like her? My sister–in–law?” Celia rolled her eyes.
“My brother divorced her ages ago.”
Meanwhile, Grace spotted Celia among the crowd. The corner of her lips lifted as she walked
.over to Celia.
“Back then, she was just the owner of a small boutique, but she involved herself in my brother and
Yvonne Quine’s relationship, becoming his mistress.
“After she married him, she shamelessly refused to leave the family. My brother never even touched
her! She worked for our company by day and then as our maid at night.
“She was just a free maid,” Celia said.
As if that wasn’t enough, she turned to order another drink and continued, “She struck rich when she
got to Darai. She asked for a divorce right after that. She’s just a serial cheater!”

The rich girls were hanging on every word.
When they saw Grace corning over, they immediately became intimidated by her strong bearing.
They didn’t dare tell Celia about it. Hence, she continued yapping.
“Isn’t she such a bitch, you all?” She had just finished talking when she saw Grace standing right in
front of her.
She was so stunned that she couldn’t utter a word. Her glass fell to the floor.
With a champagne glass in her hand and coldness in her eyes, Grace towered over Celia.
She looked the girl up and down, then scoffed. “Why did you stop? I was listening.”
Celia was a stubborn person, so she refused to back down.
“Am I wrong? My brother’s about to marry Yvonne. Now, that’s a perfect match! Better than a common
chick like you.”
“It’s only been days since I divorced Benjamin, but Yvonne’s already been pregnant for three months.
Isn’t it obvious who the cheater is here?” Grace asked with a scoff.
At that point, Susan, who had been talking to someone else, came over. She dragged Celia behind her
and turned to Grace.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith a shrill voice, she arrogantly pointed at Grace and yelled, “You infertile hag! How dare you criticize
my son? Yvonne can give me a grandson. Can you?”
She was about to keep shouting when Benjamin suddenly showed up and stopped her.
“That’s enough!” he said.
Susan looked around and realized that she shouldn’t have made such a scene. So she reluctantly
stopped talking.
Benjamin had heard the argument from afar. However, Grace had barely reacted despite all the vicious
insults. It was like she was used to them.
He was more concerned with the truth in those insults.
Suppressing his irritation, he asked Grace, “Were they telling the truth? Were you treated like a maid
for our family for three years?”
Grace looked at Benjamin and Yvonne, then smiled mockingly. “Don’t you trust your mother and sister
the most? Why are you asking me this?”
