Chapter 70 What a Coincidence
What a small world.
“I’m so happy you coulde visit, Benjamin,” Yvonne’said gently. She tried to hold his hand, but he subtly dodged her.
“I saw some of my business partners. I’m going over to talk to them,” Benjamin said in a cold voice as he walked away.
Yvonne was very irked. It had been two months since she had been sent to Frenda, but Benjamin had never called her, not even once.
Now that he was finally here, she had wanted to spend some quality time with him, even if it was just for the sake of their baby.
After reluctantly watching Benjamin leave, she turned back. She was surprised to find Grace standing right in front of her.
There was a middle–aged woman who looked pretty despite her age standing next to Grace. With a smile, Yvonne
tried to make her belly even more obvious and walked over as if Grace were the mistress, not her.
“Why do I keep bumping into you everywhere I go?” Yvonne asked.
Grace didn’t even look at her. “That’s my line.”
Yvonne gritted her teeth. “I don’t understand you. You were so happy to divorce Benjamin, yet you came all this way just to bother him. You’re like a ghos
Hestia turned to Grace and asked, “Is she the mistress who ruined your marriage, Gracie?”
“Watch your mouth, olddy.”
Hestia had never been called an olddy before, and that made her want tough. “Do I look that old, Gracie?”
As the founder of ME Group, a luxury makeuppany, Hestia held all the secrets to aging gracefully and used them to her advantage.
Usually, she looked young enough that people would call her “Ms. Riley“. Who knew that she would be insulted like this today?
“You’re gorgeous, Aunt Hestia. She just has a potty mouth, that’s all,” Grace said coolly with a nonchnt smile.
“To me, Benjamin is a piece of trash that even recycling centers would reject. I don’t know what you’re worried about,” she added.
“Why, you!” Yvonne’s tone turned cold and hostile.
Grace, however, was still looking at the exhibition. “We’re in public, so I’ll cut you some ck. Leave right away, and I just might spare you.”
“No. It’s not like your family owns this exhibition, anyway.” Yvonne chose violence over peace.
“What a coincidence. We do, in fact, own this exhibition.” Hestia stepped forward, looking at Yvonne with narrowed eyes.
“You’re joking. This is a high–end photography exhibition for the elite, filled with Sunny’s works of art. How can it be owned by two nobodies like you?”
Yvonne walked closer, disdain in her eyes. “I heard you
were just an orphan in Pamore. It’s good enough that you managed to be Benjamin’s secretary.
“But pretending to be someone important? Don’t make meugh!” she said..
Yvonne had investigated Grace ages ago, and she knew thetter was just an orphan from the countryside. Why was she even insisting that both her pa
Hestia was so angered by Yvonne’s words that all the warmth drained from her face. “Say that again. I dare you.”
Grace grabbed Hestia’s arm. “Aunt Hestia, don’t let someone like her ruin your mood. Let’s go.

She didn’t want Hestia to ruin her reputation for grace and elegance because of Yvonne. After all, why would anyone argue with a b*tch?
However, Hestia couldn’t let it slide. She could handle Yvonne calling her an olddy, but she refused to let her call Grace an orphan.
Yvonne smiled shamelessly when she noticed the olddy was getting mad. you trying to stand up for her now?
Am I wrong? Are
“She’s just a whore who briefly secured a rich man’s favor. A penniless aunt like you only got to travel overseas because of that.
“Please, take some more pictures of the exhibition. You’ll be able to show them off when you get back to your little vige.”
Hestia couldn’t take it anymore. “Apologize!” she roared, several times louder than usual.
“Never!” Yvonne wasn’t afraid of her at all. “You uncivilized people raised a woman just as uncivilized as you are!”
Hestia reached her breaking point. She grabbed Yvonne’s cor before pping her quickly and forcefully.
