Chapter 1954 1 Will Make You Pay As Grant departed, the three children stared at his leaving silhouette.

The silence was quickly broken by Estella's question. “Daddy, Mommy, isn't Granddad pitiful?” Archie and Benny corrected their sister immediately. “No, Essie. Granddad isn't pitiful because he has always treated Mommy badly.” Estella responded with a thoughtful nod.

Lucian and Roxanne didn't comment on the children's conversation, for they didn't feel the need to lecture them or shape their minds about the matter.

Instead, they respected the children's freedom to follow their gut feeling.

With that, the family continued playing camping games before leaving the park when darkness fell.

When Grant returned to his suffocatingly small apartment in a dilapidated neighborhood, he found Winnie playing on her phone and that she hadn't cooked dinner.

The sight triggered within him a sense of hatred for her.

His temper flared immediately. “What's the matter with you? Why didn't you prepare dinner? Do you think you're some rich housewife?” His words elicited a vicious glower from Winnie.

“Why should I? I'm no longer your wife. Despite having five million in your hands, you didn't even save a single penny. How thick is that skull of yours? And what's this about me being a rich housewife? You're well aware of how | suffered together with you all these years. Now that your daughter is doing well, it's really ironic that you have fallen into such pathetic circumstances!” Rage swelled within Grant after he was given a good round of tongue-lashing by Winnie.

“Why are you blaming me? Roxanne wouldn't have severed ties with us if you hadn't bullied her back then. Since you're in so much suffering, you're more than welcome to leave!” “D*mn it, Grant! How can you kick me out after we're divorced? Do you even have a conscience? Let me tell you.

Your son and daughter are on their way here right now, and they won't forgive you once they learn that you have divorced me. How dare you still want me to cook for you?” The more Winnie thought about it, the more enraged she became. She had assumed that she would live a life of luxury after getting married to Grant. Little did she imagine that he would turn out to be a coward who was saddled with debt.

In a fit of rage, Winnie grabbed her phone, put on a pair of new high heels, and stormed into her room to start packing.

“Fine. I'll leave. Go ahead and have your father-daughter reunion with Roxanne. You can get some money and enjoy yourself with it!” Winnie's rants became increasingly aggressive.

Cowed into silence, Grant stopped her from leaving in the end.

“I told you that this is part of the plan. | have to make myself look pitiful, as this is what Mr. Crawford wants.

That's how I'm going to get close to Roxanne. When | strike it rich after this, you'll be able to live the life you dream of, so please don't leave. I'll go get a personal loan for you to buy a new phone and some clothes, all right?” Winnie's anger gradually dissipated after being assuaged by Grant.

At that moment, their old and broken gate let out a piercing screech, heralding the arrival of a female figure.

She wore a frosty expression on her face and was dressed in white office wear as she walked right up to Grant and Winnie.

The couple was briefly stunned before their eyes lit up in joy.

“Yuliana, you're back! My precious daughter, you're finally back!” Winnie scrutinized her daughter's outfit and quickly noticed the expensive necklace she was wearing. It looks like her life has taken a turn for the better.

As for Grant, he quickly averted his gaze, worried that Yuliana who ask about the divorce.

“Dad, Mom, have you seen Roxanne? That b*tch seems to have done well for herself. Yet, she didn't invite both of you to her wedding?” The anger on Yuliana's face was unmistakable.

Winnie nodded before relating what happened by twisting the facts further. While doing so, she mentioned Grant's visit to the children by accident.

Yuliana furrowed her brows intensely as she glared at her father. “Dad, what's the meaning of this? Have you no shame? She has severed ties with you. Yet you ingratiate yourself with her? | don't care if you have an ulterior motive for doing so, but I'm going to make her pay for what she has done to Mom!”
