Celestial Queen: Revenge Is Sweet When You’re A Zillionaire Heiress

Chapter 1726:

The guests exchanged incredulous glances, their minds struggling to comprehend what they had just heard.

Gilmore wasn’t just anybody—he was a rising force in the political world, a man countless people sought to align with. And yet, Lexus was publicly disowning him? And who exactly was Harlee? Lexus wasn’t just cutting off his own son—he was handing his entire fortune to a woman unrelated to him by blood, while his beloved grandson received nothing. Had Lexus lost his mind?

Whispers erupted throughout the banquet hall. The verdict among the guests was unanimous—Lexus had finally gone off the deep end.

Errol’s hand curled into a tight fist beneath the table. Fury burned beneath his skin. Lexus was actually giving everything to Harlee? The old man had lost it. Completely.
