    Chapter 102 Mr. Grayson’s ttery


    “My aunt might have misspoken, but she had no ill intentions. Why do you need to humiliate her in front


    of everyone?” Wendy questioned Charlotte.


    She had thought that everyone would join in condemning Charlotte. To her surprise, not a single person


    moved, and

    even her uncle-inw, who hade with her aunt, was


    nowhere to be found.


    Fiona’s resentment towards Charlotte grew, and she continued, “It’s a fact that Mr. Smith abandoned


    you. Can’t


    anyone even mention it?”


    Charlotte smiled coldly, “Who told you that Joe abandoned


    me?”


    Regardless of the circumstances, she was the one who initiated the divorce back then.


    This statement caused a stir among the crowd.


    Initially, everyone thought that it was because Joe wanted to be with Wendy that he took the


    opportunity to divorce Charlotte. But now, it seemed that there might be another hidden story behind it.


    “What’s going on here?”


    Just as Joe, who had been followed by Mr. Grayson, walked over from the other side of the hall, he


    frowned upon seeing


    the scene.


    The fact that Sir Smith hadn’t attended had already sparked spection, and now with this incident, the


    engagement banquet had lost its focus entirely.


    Before Charlotte could react, Fiona quickly stepped forward and hugged Mr. Grayson’s arm, looking


    pitiful as she yfullyined, “Where were you just now? You didn’t even know when your wife


    was being bullied!”


    Mr. Grayson’s expression darkened, “Who dares to bully you?”


    Fiona didn’t say much but instead looked meaningfully in


    Charlotte’s direction.


    She knew very well that Mr. Grayson was extremely concerned about his reputation. Even though he


    hadn’t been particrly attentive to her as his wife, now that they were in


    front of a crowd, he would still stand up for her.


    Even so, there was no trace of panic on Charlotte’s face. She


    simply looked at Mr. Grayson and nodded, “It’s me.”


    Mr. Grayson’s smile froze.


    Fiona even looked smugly at Charlotte, hoping Mr. Grayson


    would scold her.


    To her surprise, Mr. Grayson turned around and red at Fiona, saying, “I don’t even need to ask to


    know that it’s definitely because your mouth is stirring up trouble again. You just can’t seem to stay out


    of trouble for a single day.”


    “You!” Fiona was about to speak but was fiercely red at by


    Mr. Grayson.


    The news about the coboration between the Smith Group


    and the Horizon Group to develop a resort had be


    widely known recently. With so manypanies in Anta, who wouldn’t want to seize this opportunity


    to get a piece of the pie?


    Mr. Grayson had managed to seize this opportunity to


    connect with Joe, hoping to take a shortcut. Others might not


    be aware of the true situation, he knew.


    On the surface, Charlotte appeared to be a stunning beauty, but in reality, she was the enigmatic


    president behind the scenes of the Horizon Group!


    Fiona had been with Mr. Grayson for many years and could easily tell that something was amiss. Mr.


    Grayson didn’t have


    any romantic desires for Charlotte. Instead, he seemed eager to please and be cautious around her.


    Although unclear, Fiona’s years of sharp intuition made her keep her mouth shut.


    However, Wendy had worked so hard to get to this point. How could she give up easily?


    She still wanted to speak up but suddenly heard intense sobbing from the staircase.


    Suddenly, Charlotte’s calm expression changed drastically.


    She didn’t even bother to talk to them anymore, wanting to


    rush over there.


    Mistaking her intention as an attempt to flee, Wendy


    instinctively blocked her path.


    Charlotte pushed her aside forcefully, her brows cold, “Get out


    of the way!”
