The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 28

Yvonne and Mia glanced at the contents of the copy and their faces instantly turned pale. They felt so

guilty that they couldn’t speak.

It was like going out for wool and coming home shorn.

They lost the battle this time!

Seeing that they fell silent, Grace shook her head sarcastically.

She thought they were tough and would resist a little longer!

“Let’s go. Hurry up and finish it so that we can proceed to the next step.” At the end of her words, she

smiled meaningfully.

A moment later, the bodyguards made their move quickly.

Four of the bodyguards gathered all the servan t s in the garden, while the other six were responsible

for the destruction of the mansion.

Soon, the whole mansion was full of the sound of things being smashed, one after another.

The servan t s under their control listened to the sharp sounds and huddled together, not daring to look.

When Yvonne heard it all, she was also frightened.

Mia was so scared that she huddled into Yvonne’s arms. Suddenly, she thought of something, and her

pupils dilated. “Oh! I just got a set of limited-edition LC cosmetics from Mberry last month! You can’t

smash them! You can’t!”

She wiggled free from Yvonne’s arms in a panic and ran upstairs to stop them.

Screams and the sound of porcelain breaking were mixed together.

From a distance, it sounded like a strange melody.

Yvonne clenched her fists tightly, and her eyes looked so vicious that it seemed like she wanted to cut

Grace to pieces.

All those sounds of things being smashed were all about money, which hurt her a lot.

But she would never bow her head to this little bitc h!

She suppressed the pain in her heart and glared at Grace angrily. “You’re so vicious! Bitc h! You’ll get

what you deserve. I’ll never let you off!”

Grace chuckled and said, “If I’m vicious, then what did you do to me in the past three years? Wasn’t

that even more vicious?”

Yvonne said disdainfully, “You’re just a wild woman with an unknown identity. You don’t deserve my

son. What I did was just teach you some rules of a rich and powerful family. It’s you who couldn’t stand

it and wanted a divorce. What does it have to do with me? What have I done wrong?”

Her excuse amused Grace.

Grace didn’t want to explain it. Yvonne was so egotistical that she would never feel that it

was her fault.

Explaining it to her was just a waste of time.

Just as Yvonne was about to continue cursing, she saw two bodyguards carrying Mia, who kept

cursing, out of the mansion.

The bodyguards were very strong, and Mia refused to cooperate with them, so her wrists and arms had

been bruised.

Yvonne’s heart ached. She wanted to take her precious daughter back from the bodyguards, but she

was held down by another bodyguard and couldn’t move. She could only look at Grace in horror.

“You! What do you want to do to Mia? I sent them. It has nothing to do with Mia. Kill me if

you can!”

“I prefer torture to killing people.’

”

Grace smiled. “I told you last time that if you provoke me again, I’ll make you pay back double, but…”

She paused for a moment. A bodyguard brought her a chair. She sat down in the middle of the

doorway but did not go in.

That was because she said before that even if Yvonne knelt down and begged her, she would never

step foot into the old mansion again.

“Since you used to be my mother-in-law and an elder, I won’t hurt you. So, let her pay your debts for

you.”

As she spoke, she shot a sharp glance at Mia.

Mia had been deceived by Grace’s tricks at the banquet. She immediately shivered and could no

longer be arrogant. She cried out to Yvonne for help. “Mom! Mom! Save me! She will kill me!”

Although Yvonne was held down by the bodyguards, she could still speak. She kept complaining about

Grace’s behavior while scolding and threatening her.

With the sound of Mia’s crying and screaming, it was so loud.

Grace frowned unhappily and said, “You’re so noisy. Shut your mouth.’

”

The bodyguards grabbed some rags that the servan t s used to clean the rooms with and forcibly

gagged their mouths.

All of a sudden, there were only two faint whimpers left in the yard, and the clamor finally stopped.

Grace began to torture them.

“Do you remember that you wrongly accused me of stealing the jewelry and took the shares of the

Fallen Group from me? But since I’ve smashed the place up now, then I’ll wipe those things away. But

as for the incident in which you forced me to kneel in the heavy rain as punishment, what will you use

to pay that back?”

She gave the bodyguards a look.

One of the bodyguards kicked the back of Mia’s knee.

Mia couldn’t bear it, and she fell to her knees heavily. The ground was covered with tiny pebbles, and

she was in so much pain. She fell heavily because of the momentum of the kick.

Because she was pinned down by the bodyguards, her head didn’t touch the ground, but from a

distance, it seemed that she was kowtowing in Grace’s direction. Mia was in so much pain that her

facial features were distorted, making her feel even more humiliated.

Yvonne was so distressed that her eyes were wet, but she was still grunting as if she was cursing: “Bitc

h, you will die a horrible death!”

“You feel distressed just because of that?”

Grace smiled coldly. “You can’t bear to see your daughter suffer? Although I’m your daughter-in-law, I

used to be a daughter. Have you ever thought that my mother would feel sad for me when you treat me

like this?”

At the mention of her mother, she subconsciously clenched her fists so tightly that it hurt

her.

Some bad memories came to her mind.

After a while, she suppressed those inexplicable emotions and looked up at the red glow in the sky with

gloomy eyes.

“It’s a pity that it didn’t rain heavily today. It’s not over yet.”

She frowned and was lost in thought. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she came up with a good idea.

“Bring over a few buckets of water from the pond.”

The bodyguards immediately went to do as told.

The servan t s cowered in the corner of the garden. When they heard how Grace tortured Mia, they

gasped, but no one dared to stand up and plead for her.

After all, many of them had seen with their own eyes how Grace had been framed. Even if they hadn’t

seen the rest of it, they had heard about Yvonne’s cruelty.

Moreover, Mia had often bullied Grace in the past.

It seemed that it was fair for the daughter to pay off her mother’s debts.

Soon, the bodyguards brought five buckets of water. There were fish in the pond, so they accidentally

brought a few shrimps and water plants over when they scooped up the water. Mia’s eyes were wide

open and full of panic. She kept shaking her head and begging for mercy. She was crying so hard that

she could not make a sound. She was no longer as arrogant as before.

“Pour it over her head.”

The cold order made the mother and daughter completely desperate.

“Woosh…”

A whole bucket of water poured down from the top of her head without mercy, without missing a drop.

Chapter 28

Mia’s face was deathly pale. She was so cold that she was trembling all over. The plants were stuck to

her face, and the shrimps were still jumping on top of her head. She looked indescribably embarrassed.

She raised her head and saw her mother crying so hard that she couldn’t speak. Grace, whom she

hated the most, was looking at her mockingly.

The servan t s, who had always been scolded by her, were also secretly peeking at her and looking at

her miserable state.

Both her pride and self-esteem were shattered, and she felt overwhelmed and humiliated.

She completely broke down and burst into tears.

Before a bodyguard could pour the second bucket of water on her, she fainted.

Seeing that Mia had fainted, Grace asked the bodyguards to let go of them.

Being no longer restrained, Yvonne ran to check on her daughter as soon as possible and even forgot

to curse Grace.

“It’s just a lesson this time. If you dare to do it again, I won’t be as easy on you as I was today.”

Seeing that it was almost time to leave, Grace called back the bodyguards and was ready to go back

home.

But as soon as she turned around, her eyes met a pair of deep black eyes.

With a gloomy face, Edgar pursed his thin lips and stared at her without blinking.
