    Chapter 289 I Won’t Embarrass You Anymore


    At Xander Residence.


    Danie spotted Grayson on the sofa, his face clouded with glum, while Neil upied the other one.


    She looked at Neil and spected Grayson was probably scolding him.


    Slowly, she descended the stairs.


    At the sound of her footsteps, Grayson spun around and bellowed, “Come down here, quickly!”


    Astonished, Danie asked, “Are you addressing me, Grandpa?”


    “Who else would we be waiting for?” Grayson’s voice thundered.


    As she approached Grayson, her heart raced. She questioned him softly, “What’s the matter,


    Grandpa?”


    Grayson hurled a stack of photos toward Danie.


    The images scattered, revealing distressing scenes–all of them rted to her.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    Danie went numb, her body trembling uncontrobly.


    “How do you n to exin this? Yourpany just started, yet your employees know about your


    scandalous past!” Grayson’s voice was harsh.


    As Grayson berated her, Danie began to piece things together as she nced briefly at the photos.


    She then fixed a fierce gaze on Neil. “Was it you? Did you inform Grandpa about this?”


    Grayson’s response was swift, his cane swishing toward Danie’s back as he barked, “Nonsense!”


    Danie cried out in pain.


    .Neil replied casually, “Grandpa was already aware. I didn’t inform him.”


    Danie frowned in pain but was too scared to touch her back. She looked away from Neil and told


    Grayson, “Why won’t you listen to my side of the story, Grandpa?*


    “I didn’t hand over thepany for you to shame our family!” Grayson’s tone was scornful.


    Danie sneered. “Do you think this is what I wanted? Everyone has a questionable past! Was


    surviving that wrong?”


    “You’re not disabled, yet you resorted to selling yourself,” Neil remarked.


    Danie’s face stiffened. She had intended to remind Grayson of her tough life, but Neil’s words


    caught her off guard.

    Grayson’s expression soured. “My birthday party is just two weeks away, and you’re turning me into a


    laughingstock!”


    “Even if I made mistakes before, someone’s intentionally trying to expose me!” Danie argued.


    Grayson red at her. “Someone’s out to get you? Would they even have a chance if you weren’t


    involved in disgraceful activities?”


    “Grandpa, I’ve taken steps against the culprit. Just trust me one more time, please. I’ll run thepany


    well and won’t bring you any more shame.” Danie’s tears flowed freely.


    “It’s toote. A lot of people know what happened with ra yesterday, and I believe the police will be


    here soon,‘ Neil revealed.


    Danie was stunned. “What do you mean?”


    Neil exined grimly, “ra suffered fatal abuse. Do you want the gruesome details?”


    Danie panicked. She hadn’t expected her bodyguards to be so ruthless. ‘ra’s dead? I don’t think I


    told them to kill her.‘


    Terrified, Danie dropped to her knees and pleaded with Grayson, “Please, Grandpa, save me. I


    didn’t mean for ra to die!”
