Chapter 92 - Aaron
“Oh, Adele, allow me to be the first of our guests to congratulate you on your engagement.” the old woman, who seemed to be leading the other two, broke into an extremely white smile, her blue eyes narrowing with pure malice, and while Aaron would never be able to remember the name of an insufferable high society crone like that, the look on his grandmother's face told him all there was to know about that guest's intentions.
“I appreciate it, Melanie. And thank you so much for being here in person today. When I sent the invitation to Westcote, I never thought it would be you coming to represent your family.” Adele commented, with the haughty posture Aaron always saw his grandmother assume when she got defensive.“My daughter-in-law is always busy with her business in the Middle East at this time of year, so obviously I couldn't let our family pass up an event as important as your grandson's engagement. And, I'm glad I did. You certainly know hRelated chapters
How to Divorce a Grumpy Billionaire Chapter 93 - Rose
“Unbend that tiara. Can't you see it's at a completely wrong angle? And the bouquet? Don't tell me you made the mistake of mixing camellias with peonies this time too, right? It's not enough for me to be almost embarrassed by that arch of flowers outside." Adele didn't stop talking for a single minute to the maids who were tidying the room around her, with far more breath and energy than Rose would have, even though she was four times her age."Rose, can you line up the choker around your neck?" Grace whimpered softly "I'm afraid Adele will drink my blood if she realizes I got it wrong."“Don't worry, Grace, it's just a matter of angle.” Rose laughed, calming her sister, but even so she gently touched the silver line full of pink diamonds that was around her neck, until she was hugging her neck perfectly "Better?"“I don't know how Grandma didn't pull these jewels out of the family vault at one of the many parties you went to with Aaron.”
How to Divorce a Grumpy Billionaire Epilogue - Rose
“And so we can mix the ingredients better and make a perfect pineapple wine jelly. Come on, don't be shy, you can taste it.” Rose smiled at the new recruits who were standing around the kitchen counter in the pastry shop, watching intently as she made her new stuffing recipe.As the young interns began to eat, happy as children, Rose turned away from the counter and practically ran to the kitchen door, where it was more airy, when she heard a whimper that she knew very well. Carefully, she lifted the hood of the pram leaning against the door, smiling to find a pair of large, obsidian-black eyes looking around with a mixture of distrust and curiosity, until they seemed to notice she was there and immediately the whimpering turned into a real cry."Oh, it's okay, Alice." Rose chuckled at her sly little girl, picking her up and causing the squealing to stop immediately, replaced by a happily babbling “Mommy is here now.”“Sorry again for mak

Most kids learned from their parents that strangers were not to be trusted, especially strangers you met on the internet and had never seen their faces before. In the case of Grace Springs, however, it was her older sister who had taught her that. So she knew very well how horrified and worried Rose would be to learn that she was doing exactly that right now."How's your day?" The message flashed in the in-game personal chat after the match ended, and with a smile, Grace clicked to open the message and reply from her friend Simon.Well, theoretically his nickname was still TallMole95, but they were long past that stage of knowing each other's real names. Seven months in all, in fact, since she'd managed to get hold of one of the notebooks in her father's study. Rose always said that she needed to avoid getting into trouble with Elisabeth and Michael as much as possible, especially while her sister wasn't back from college, but after those two had sold the portable game con

Simon knew he was acting like he was 8 years old again, hiding in corners and just observing everything around him, letting shyness get the better of him, instead of doing what he really wanted to do. But dammit, whenever he glanced in Grace's direction, his heart raced, his palms turned cold, and he was more certain than ever that he still didn't have the courage to walk up to her and simply introduce himself. Not if it meant his looks might disappoint her and she wanted to stop being friends with him.Of course, he also knew he shouldn't have taken advantage of the fact that she had told him where her college was and given him the opportunity to go there and see her, on the day he knew Grace would be coming to apply, but... He wanted so much to see her up close. Or, at least, from a few meters away, as he was doing now, sitting at one of the tables in the college cafeteria, while he watched Grace standing in line near one of the rooms, hugging some documents and looking very

“Grace...!” Rose called out to her, still inside the living room where Alec Vamcap, the nephew of the man she had married, was now happily playing with his adorable puppy; however, Grace pretended that she hadn't heard her and continued to walk quickly towards the room where she was staying in the Vamcap mansion, with the Christmas card, which she had questioned about, in her hands.It was still hard for her to believe that her sister actually looked so happy, in fact happier than she had ever been in the Springs, here with the family of the man she had forcibly married. Not that Grace was bothered by that. After all, Mr. Vamcap had turned out to be a better person than she realized, not only preventing Rose from being assaulted by Michael, but also bringing Grace into that mansion months ago, when she still had to wait until she could move into the dorm. Of course, she had been absolutely surprised when he had done this, as she had painted an image of him in her mi

“Please make yourself comfortable, Mr. Evans.” Mr. Conti touched Simon's shoulder in a friendly way as the waiter poured a glass of whiskey at the table he was sitting at "It's a pleasure to have you here again."“Thanks again for the invitation.” Simon forced himself to smile, since, of all the people he had met since he had started making a lot of money and being invited to that kind of high society club, Mr. Conti and his wife seemed to be one of the few people who were being genuinely kind to him.“Let me say hello to my other guests, but I'll be back here shortly so we can talk a little, yes?” the old man smiled, as if he knew perfectly well that Simon would not fit in easily here among all these men who were twice his age and never had to worry for once in their lives about what they were going to eat the next day “Why don't you try to take a walk and meet the other gentlemen? I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun.”Suppressing a sigh, Simon just smiled a little and nodde

It had been exactly 7 months, 2 weeks and 4 days since Grace had asked to see her best friend's dick, and even after the day Simon had gotten up from the table so fast as to break his own computer and end the conversation, she felt that he was still awkward around her, even though they had made a silent pact not to mention her request again.The funny thing was, Grace couldn't even feel embarrassed. Not that she didn't know that asking someone to be naked during a video call was weird, but… She honestly wanted to see that part of Simon. The only thing that made her feel bad was the fact that, from some of their conversations, Grace had the distinct impression that Simon thought she had asked this out of pure and simple curiosity. And unfortunately, whenever she tried to explain that she really was physically attracted to him, and even more so, Simon seemed to panic and end the call.Her parents had always said that she was very strange, and maybe Grace really was. Because she

“Stop swinging your legs like that! It looks like a tremendous duck!” Elisabeth scolded Grace for the millionth time that day, causing her to stop nervously shaking her legs as she sat in the waiting room of the restaurant where her parents had taken her to meet her mystery fiance “And stop biting your lip or you'll get lipstick on your teeth! God, I never met a girl more slovenly than you! How can you be my daughter?”“Shut up and stop causing an uproar!” Michael growled in a low tone, reaching over to grab his wife's arm after seeming to have finally finished confirming the reservation with the waiter who had accosted them the moment they set foot in that huge restaurant and who screamed exclusively "We have to make a good first impression on our son-in-law!"“Don’t you dare talk to me like that!” Elisabeth spat, moving her arm away from his grip, but at least in a lower tone “Do you have any idea how long it took me and how much makeup I had to spend to make her even remote
