Chapter 156 The Gray Family’s Toxic Child

After ending her call, Valerie sent Salma her blessings and hung up. Although she felt that Salma was a bit confused and unopinionated, she still treated her with respect as an elder.

Valerie’s parents were beside her when she made the call. Valerie’s mother spoke up. “I never realized that the Gray Family was so chaotic. I don’t believe that Mrs. Gray is unaware of all this, Valerie’s mom commented.

“Exactly, she must know. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have allowed the adopted daughter to force her biological daughter away. Simone was so good to the Gray Family, but they didn’t appreciate it. They chose Jodie, who’s all words but no action. All the troubles in the Gray Family are related to Jodie. This adopted daughter of the Gray Family is toxic.” Valerie didn’t just feel repulsed by Jodie; she felt a burning sense of hatred.

Seeing the photos and videos online made her even more nauseated. Valerie’s mother had met Simone and Jodie before, and her impression of Simone had improved after that meeting, “It’s a good thing you didn’t marry Reuben. Otherwise, having such a confused mother–in–law would be troublesome, Valerie’s mom commented. “In our group, many people are mocking her. They say that it doesn’t seem like she has adopted a daughter. Instead, she seemed to have completely raised a woman for her son’s pleasures. We never realized it before. When Simone left the Gray Family, many people didn’t understand why she would give up her position as the Gray Family’s daughter. Now it’s clear that she couldn’t stand that family.”

Valerie agreed. “Yes, Simone had enough. Before, I felt a bit awkward contacting Simone because of my relationship with Reuben. But now that I’ve divorced Reuben, I’ve decided to communicate with her actively. We can still be friends even if we can’t be sisters–in–law.”

This time, they were on the same side. Valerie’s mother nodded. “Simone seems like a good person.” She questioned Valerie’s father next. “Do you think Mr. Gray knows about all this?”

“He probably doesn’t know. Mr. Gray wouldn’t be so clueless if he knew,” Valerie’s father replied. “He’s always focused on Gray Corporation, so he probably doesn’t pay much attention to the matters between his son and adopted daughter. But now that this has happened, his reputation has taken a hit.”

“Will the divorce affect the cooperation between our company and the Gray Corporation?” Valerie’s mother asked again. Valerie’s father shook his head, “Mr. Gray wouldn’t be so foolish. I’ll give him a call to let him know”

“Go ahead. Don’t let the broken engagement affect the cooperation between the two companies, Valerie’s mother said.

Valeric’s father then called Steven and told him about the broken engagement. Although he didn’t mention the online incident, he did mention how Jodie intentionally called Reuben
