The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 39

After lunch, Grace returned to her office and started working.

The incident with the Mellis family was just her guess. Without any substantial evidence, she couldn’t

be bothered to deal with it.

But if Nancy provoked her again, she might do something.

In the afternoon, Tom called.

He said coquettishly like a puppy, “Grace, are you free tonight?”

Grace typed, “Nope.”

Tom pursed his lips and began to talk to himself. “I have to attend a banquet at the Mellis’s tonight. I’ve

been working continuously for seven or eight days. You have to give me some time off, right?”

“No problem.”

Tom didn’t expect her to agree so quickly. So he asked tentatively, “Then can I have the honor of

inviting you to be my female companion tonight?”

Grace pursed her lips, and her starry eyes flickered, mulling over the proposal.

After a while, she answered, “Okay.”

After that, Grace hung up the phone.

On the other end of the line, Tom silently lamented. What a heartless woman!

Grace didn’t intend to go, but since Tom mentioned it, she decided to join the fun.

Half an hour later, Sang knocked on the door and came in. She put an exquisite gift box on the desk.

“Ms. Salen, someone just sent this over. It’s for you.

“Got it. You may leave.”

After Beth left, Grace got up and opened the box.

It was an evening gown, which was entirely in line with her taste. Tom had even prepared the dress for

her.

She laughed and shook her head. After looking at it for a while, she returned the dress and continued

to work.

When it was time to get off work, most of the employees began to pack up and get ready to get off

work. Grace asked those who liked to work overtime to go back early. It was not until almost everyone

in the company had left that she took the elevator downstairs.

At the entrance of the Angle Group Building, Tom had been waiting in his new silver-gray Maybach for

a long time.

Seeing Grace come out, he subconsciously glanced at her.

He could no longer look away.

She was so beautiful in her snow-white dress that she was much more beautiful than those popular

stars.

Unfortunately, Grace disdained to be a star.

Tom clicked his tongue in wonder. He ran over with a smile and respectfully waved his hand like a

gentleman. “My Queen, it’s my great honor to attend the banquet with you.”

Grace burst into laughter and reached out to flick him on the head. “Naughty.”

Tom covered his head sadly and said with some resentment, “I’m telling the truth.”

Seeing Grace walking toward the car, Tom quickly opened the door for her, still admiring her beautiful

face. “Grace, you have good taste. This dress is so fairy-like.”

Grace stopped in her tracks.

She looked at him suspiciously. “Didn’t you send it over?”

Tom was stunned and a little embarrassed. “I wanted to pick a dress for you myself, but I was so busy

filming the entire afternoon that I forgot about it.”

Grace’s face turned serious,

She recalled that there was no sender’s name when Beth sent it over in the afternoon. Because when

she talked to Tom over the phone, she thought it was from him.

Now this matter was becoming interesting!

Tom thought she was angry with him and asked, “Grace, what’s wrong?”

Grace didn’t explain anything. She curled her red lips and said, “Let’s go. If we’re late, we’ll miss the

good show.”

In the dressing room on the second floor of the Mellis’s villa.

Nancy was still applying makeup. She had been preparing since noon. Today, she had to catch

everyone’s attention.

Mia sat beside her and said, “If it weren’t for your invitation, my brother wouldn’t let me be free. Those

people are keeping a close watch on me. I am so done with it.”

Nancy comforted her with a smile, “You are free now. I guess Edgar won’t lock you up anymore.”

“Who knows? My brother is stubborn.” She pursed her lips and continued complaining, “And you, what

you’ve been busy with these days? You didn’t even answer my phone. I even suspect that you sold me

out.”

Nancy froze and then held her hand intimately. “How could I do such a thing? You are my best friend. I

will be sad if you think of me like this.”

Seeing that she was sincere, Mia believed her. “I was just joking. Please don’t take it seriously But

congratulations this time. Now you can marry my brother as the lady of the Mellis family! Your status -

matches him better now.”

Nancy looked cold, but when Mia looked at her, she smiled gently again.

Mia didn’t notice it at all and continued to chat with her.

“By the way, you are the future heir of the Mellis Group. Your status is extraordinary. How can that bitc

h Grace compete with you?”

Nancy was very proud to hear so.

Chapter 39

Just as she was about to say something, there was a sudden commotion at the door.

Something seemed to have fallen.

The two of them looked at each other and got up to open the door.

It turned out that the maid who sent the dress accidentally bumped into the car of the cleaner passing

by. The things fell to the ground, and the maid was helping to pick them up.

Mia covered his nose in disgust. “Oh, shi t! It’s so dirty!”

The cleaner apologized in fear.

“I’m sorry, ladies. It’ll be done soon. It won’t dirty your door.”

Nancy frowned in disgust, but she couldn’t scold her directly because of Mia. She just smiled tactfully

and said, “Forget it. It’s not a big deal. There are so many guests today. Just clean up.”

Then she looked at the maid helping her and said, “Bring the clothes in. Don’t waste time.”

“Yes.”

The maid quickly picked up the intact dress box from the ground and followed her into the dressing

room.

When the box was opened, it was a snow-white, high-quality dress.

Mia was stunned. “Wow, what a beautiful dress. This must be the work of a famous designer abroad,

right? Nancy, you deserve to be the star of tonight’s banquet. Mr. and Mrs. Mellis love you so much.

I’m envious.”

Nancy felt very comfortable being flattered. She smiled modestly and said, “No, Mia, you’re the spoiled

little princess of the Fallen family.”

The two flattered each other for a while. Mia even took a few photos of her best friend and posted.

them on Twitter with the caption, “A party for good friends. She’s so beautiful.”

Soon, it attracted a lot of comments from Mia’s fans, praising both of them.

Mia, who hadn’t gone out for a long time, felt fantastic.

Nancy smiled obsequiously and tried to send her away. “Mia, can you help me see how many people

are outside? Isn’t it about to start?”

“Okay.”

After Mia left, she quickly made a call.

“How’s it going with the bitc h? Is there anything wrong with what happened tonight?”

On the other end of the line, Sarah replied confidently. “No, my men are keeping an eye on her. Just -

wait and see.”

Nancy was completely relieved.

Her

eyes lit up with excitement when she thought of what would happen next.

Tonight, she would step on that bitc h to become the first socialite in the Frant City.
