Chapter 233


    As I walked over, I glimpsed the sight on his phone screen was scandalous. I turned to leave immediately! Gregory


    was showing me a video of Margaret and Albert from that night.


    “What’s the rush?” he asked, his long legs blocking my poth as he dragged the progress bar back,


    The screen went dark, but the voices were unmistakable and dreadfully familiar.


    “Could you keep it to yourself for now?”


    “Sure. What’s in it for me?”


    “What do you want?”


    “Haven’t decided yet. How about you owe me one? I let you know once I’ve decided.”


    “Fine.”


    After hearing this exchange, I looked up at him, dumbfounded. “You recorded it?”


    He seemed careless, but his actions were meticulously calcted.


    “Got lucky,” he said with a chuckle, his arrogance unmistakable. “Does it count as evidence?”


    “You’re ruthless.” I was at a loss for words and not in the best of moods. “Fine, out with it. What do you want?”


    Could it be he was suggesting I hurry up and divorce Bryant? I’d wee that with open arms.


    Gregory said casually, “There’s a birthday party the day after tomorrow. I need a date


    I had zero interest in social gatherings of any kind. “Can I not go?”


    He asked me back, “What do you think?”


    I was helpless. “Got it.”

    dinged open, Christine strode out, caught sight of Gregory, and her eyes sparkled with intrigue. “Oh, hanging out with a friend?”

    She tried to link arms with me to enter Gregory’s ce.


    “This is his ce. Mine’s across the hall.” I grabbed her, steering her toward my ce instead


    Christine whispered, “So, he’s…”


    “The reason I’m still married,” I said loudly enough for Gregory to hear.


    Gregory had the nerve to ask me for favors after ruining my ns. Only someone from his lofty position could be so audacious. Christineughed. “So, h


    “He doesn’t need a free dinner from you” From what I’ve heard about the Ford family, they could have whatever they wanted. Inviting him out was likely b


    “Who says?” Surprisingly, Gregory was less than gracious. “I want the free dinner a lot. When are you inviting me?”


    Christine turned with a bright smile. “Whenever you’re free, hit up Jane!”


    “Deal, Gregory responded casually yet firmly.


    Once we were inside and shut the door behind us, I turned to Christine, about to question her motives, when she shot me a suggestive look. “He’s quite


    “Did he attract you then?” I asked, smiling.


    Christine shrugged. “Nope. After Steven, I’ve turned over a new leaf. I prefer the mature and stable type. He’s not my cup of tea, too wild


    to handle.


    I was relieved. “That’s good.”


    Considering Gregory’s background, if Christine fell for him, it’d just be another heartbreak.


    The divide between his world and ouré was just too big to cross. To them, dealing with us


    us was as
