Chapter 563
Gregory asked sternly, “What the hell are you talking about? Why
would I have anything to do with Wyatt’s woman?”
“It happened before you knew me. You were the shareholder of TS
Gem Channel when Celeste found fame. Rumors that Celeste was
your lover spread like wildfire, and paparazzi caught you with Celeste. Are you denying you were ever
involved with her?”
Livid, Shannon had to bring the incident up. The thought of Celeste
sent a rush of blood to her head.
Shannon picked Gregory not just because he was the successor to
Salvador Corporation. Back then, word went around that Celeste’s
man was Gregory.
She vowed to take anything and everything that was Celeste’s

married you instead of her? I’m not the type to keep a mistress or let
someone else marry my woman.”
Shannon felt suffocated.
It did not seem like there was a problem with what Gregory said.
However, Shannon was upset.
It sounded as if she was Gregory’s second choice.
“So you did have feelings for her, and you have not moved on, am I
right?”
Shannon shook Gregory’s arm and asked tearfully, “Greg, that woman
is a bitch. She was seeing many other men in showbiz. She was
caught with drugs too, which caused her career downfall. No man
would be caught dead with her in fear of being seen in a bad light. All
she can ever be is a mistress to Wyatt.”
The comment somehow did not sit well with Gregory.
Gregory knew Celeste before Shannon.
At the time, Celeste was better known for her fame, looks, and acting
prowess than Shannon.
In Gregory’s mind, Celeste was not as intolerable as Shannon put her
to be. Even though Celeste’s drug test came out positive and she had
to quit showbiz due to her damaged reputation, Gregory believed
Celeste was framed. He never once looked down on her. I know the
type of person Celeste is. Besides, if she was really that shady, do
you think Wyatt would marry her in the first place?”
Gregory’s facial muscles tensed. “I felt sorry for Celeste because she
was ostracized and bullied. Yet she kept things to herself. As one of
the shareholders and owners, I had a responsibility to take care of TS Gem’s promising artists. I don’t

nonsense, I will only think that you aren’t the person I thought you were. It makes me question my
decision to marry you.”
Shannon’s eyes widened as she grimaced.
Gregory’s words devastated her.
“After all we went through, Greg. Despite the public scorn, I bore your
child and stood by your side without asking for marriage. How could you think that of me?”
Gregory felt bad when Shannon started crying inconsolably. He sighed and patted her trembling back.
“Don’t cry. I was harsh. Don’t take it to heart.”
It would usually take some time to soothe Shannon, but she knew when to call it quits.
Hiding the anger behind her eyes, she held Gregory and softened in his embrace. “Don’t be mad at me,
Greg. I just care and love you too much. I’m scared of you leaving me
Shannon puckered up her tear-soaked lips..
Gregory was drained, and long-awaited desire soon swept over him.
Shannon grabbed the man’s tie and removed her pajamas as they
kissed and backed into the bed.
Something else was going on in one of Savrow’s villas.
