Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

Chapter 1419 The Confrontation

Celine was there before me. She was dressed meticulously, and although she was middle-aged, she still took great care of herself. We were standing very close to each other, so I could see the expensive foundation on her face that was failing to conceal her wrinkles. Not far behind Celine stood her 'shadow,' the sinister Kenzie.

Celine didn't seem surprised to see me emerge from the room. However, Kenzie's eyes widened, and she looked at me in disdain.

I glanced at her and cursed silently. 'Damn.'

Celine faintly said, "So, you've finally become part of the Pierce family?"

I smiled calmly and replied, "I have, Celine. Didn't you say grandpa was critically ill? As his granddaughter-in-law, I had to come see him, of course."

She probably hadn't expected me to be so bold.

Her eyes darkened slightly, and her complexion turned pale.

"Granddaughter-in-law?" She repeated skeptically. "You seem quite eager to claim that title."

I glanced at her and calmly walked out of the room.

I moved to the tea table on the side veranda, ignoring her words, and elegantly sat down beside it.
