Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton both looked stunned when they heard this.
Neither of them thought that Henry would actually be their grandfather's friend.
In fact, they thought Bailey Ronson bribed him to pretend to be his grandfather's friend and to deceive others. Stanley had never been introduced to Henry as his grandfather's friend.
Immediately, Henry wiped the sweat off his face and looked away from the camera. "I'm... Sigh, it's hard to explain. I mean, didn't you tellthat your grandson was ugly, Ron? You even showeda picture and toldthat was your grandson... Also, why didn't you tellthat your family owns Dragon Group?" "I was just trying to keep a low profile. I didn't want to talk about it, but first, tell me, how did you end up with my grandson? Also, how did you find out about my identity?" Ron Batton had a confused look on his face.
"Answer my question first. Do you have any idea that my life is at risk because of you?" Henry added.

"Why do I feel even more lost now?" Ron asked dumbfounded.
"That's not the point. Now tell me, why did you lie tothat your grandson, Stanley, was extremely ugly?" "It was to protect my grandson. I've been hiding my identity for the very sreason. Sometimes, it's better to be cautious because showing off one's wealth may end up attracting unwanted attention and ill intentions," Ron explained.
"So that is why..." Henry frowned slightly before wiping his sweat away again.
"Can you answernow?" Ron wanted to get to the bottom of this.
Stanley switched the camera back to face him and looked at it. "Grandpa, I'll explain these things to you later." Search The Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Stanley then hung up the phone.
Immediately afterward, Stanley looked intently at Henry. "Explain towhat's going on." Henry wiped the sweat off his face again and looked at Stanley. "One day, Miss Bailey approachedout of the blue and invitedto the Quest family's charity dinner. I refused at first because I didn't know who she was at all.
"But she toldthat if I came, she would help market my wine business into Country Z. That sounded like a great idea toat the time.
"Hence, I agreed. After that, she showeda picture of you and Xyla, and she askedif the people in the picture were Ron's grandson and granddaughter-in-law. I told her the truth.
"I said that Xyla Quest was indeed his granddaughter-in-law, but you were not his grandson. Miss Bailey askedif you were violent with Xyla back in Country Y. I told the truth by saying yes.

"Then, Miss Bailey toldhow Xyla Quest, in an attempt to protect her reputation, made you act as Dr.
m Batton's grandson to deceive her own family and the public. She also askedto help Xyla in public. "At first, I didn't want to tell anyone about Xyla's long history of suffering from domestic violence in Country Y, but Miss Bailey said she'd giveten million dollars if I did, and so I agreed.
"It's because my wine estate, which recently ran into sproblems, happened to need ten million dollars. I thought that since Xyla Quest and her husband were not on good terms anyway, they would get a divorce sooner or later. Besides, you weren't Ron's grandson from what I knew, so I thought it would be okay if I harmed you guys." Henry told the truth, sincerely.
"Also, I thought it would be fine saying something bad about Ron's grandson since he was in Country Y, e and nobody else knew what his grandson looked like. Hence, it wouldn't have affected anyone," Henry added. After saying that, Henry quickly wiped his sweat with his sleeve again. "Had I known you were Ron's grandson and that Miss Bailey providedwith false information, I wouldn't have come.
"And then I followed her to the party, and the rest is history..." Henry said truthfully. Xyla had guessed sof the things he said. Hence, she was not overly surprised. Stanley thought the same.
"Who told you that I suffered from domestic violence frequently in Country Z? And who did Bailey hear it from?" Xyla asked.
