Billionaire, Let's Divorce!

The man's smile fell and his face seemed to harden if you looked closer. She hadn't expected him to look so close or to be so direct in letting him know her suspicions.

He laughed awkwardly, trying to ease the tension in the air but it was now too late. "Come on, ma'am. We only meant to talk to Grace and see if we can find a solution that benefits both parties."

I sneered as his eyes looked like they softened for a while. These people would stop at nothing. I coldly said, "Sorry, I can tell you now that Miss Grace will not drop the lawsuit. You can save your time and just leave."

I took a step back as the door to the ward suddenly creaked open and Grace stepped out. The Man in suit threw me a dirty look before he turned to the hospital...

She faced the man too, "I'm Grace. Please come in for a cup of coffee as you tell me about the terms you are willing to offer."

My mouth dropped open as the man's eyes lit up. He flashed me a triumphant grin and faced Grace. There will be no need for that, Miss Grace as we don't have a lot of time on our hands right now.

Grace nodded, not even looking my way for once! I would have stayed mad at her but I got distracted às my eyes took in her appearance. She was already dressed in one of the dresses I brought the last time ! visited and her skin had regained its color and her lips weren't so dry anymore.

"Very well then, do hint me on your terms."

And the man did with a full blown smile. "As long as you're willing to drop the charges against Miss Sandra, we are willing to fight the maximum government subsidies for your company and the lowest tax

rate."

I coldly interrupted him. What nonsense! "Humph, what bullshit subsidies? Like she hasn't been paying the tax rate." The man turned to me, his lips set in a grim line as he glared at me. "Sorry, Mr. Lower tax rate but we don't need it. I just want to take Sandra to court!"

Grace slapped me on my arm and smiled at the man. "Please, don't mind her, listen to me. I agree, as long as the preferential policy is implemented, I will drop the lawsuit."

The man clearly didn't expect Grace to agree so quickly. He blinked a couple of times, clearly stunned, then he immediately laughed and said, "That's great, I'll handle it as soon as possible." He took her hands and shook it, "Thank you so much for your cooperation

"It was my pleasure, Grace smiled sweetly at them.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

And just like that, the man turned, threw me a dirty look and waltzed out of the hospital.

I turned to Grace and erupted, "What the actual hell, Grace?!"

She smiled at me and took my hand. "Relax, Sydney."

I snatched my hand from her, "Relax! Did you just tell me to relax? How could you agree with them?" "Sydney-"

"Sandra hurt you!" I cut her short, "And she should pay for it! How could you agree with them and let her

go like that?" I was fuming. Did her short time in the hospital affect her brain or something?

Grace sighed and looked at me. "Will you let me speak?"

I regarded her for a while then I looked away, "Go on."

"Sydney, business is business. They brought a good deal to us. And I don't want that jerk, Joel, anymore so why not also get something off him and then we'd throw his trash to Sandra since she seems to want him so badly. Right now, they're desperate. Sandra's father is running for state senator, if Sandra is taken

political opponents will attack him, they will seize the to court amidst his campaigns and all, hi opportunity and bring him down so he is desperate. This is his weakness, so they came to negotiate with us. Once this period is over, there won't be such good opportunities anymore, so why wouldn't I agree?! Besides," she added in a smug smile, "This way, we don't get to spend even a dime on anything. If we insist on taking them to court, you do know how much we'd spend, don't you?"

I remained silent as I pondered her words. She was right. This will actually go really well for the company concerning the mini crisis Luxe Vogue was currently in

1 pursed my lips, holding in my grin as I turned to her. The moment our gaze met, I couldn't hide my grin

anymore. I looked at Grace and admired her. It wasn't a surprise that she kept our company standing for three years all by herself. I pulled her into a hug. "That's my girl."
