Chapter 282

Chapter 282 She Deserves It

"Mr. Martin, things have already blown up. Mrs. Martin and Miss Davis had a run-in at the mall, and Ms. Kingsley was there too. She took Miss Davis's side, and it turned into a full-blown argument with Mrs. Martin." Stanley said. "Isidora tried to step in and got slapped for her trouble."

Grant listened to Stanley's report and couldn't help but chuckle coldly.

"Serves her right," he said, clearly referring to Isidora.

Stanley, noticing Grant's reaction, spoke softly, "Mr. Martin, we need to handle this. The news has already spread through the elite circles in just a couple of hours. If we don't get on top of this, it could really hurt the Martin Family's reputation."

Stanley's concern was not without reason. For a wealthy and prominent family, such matters were particularly sensitive. Once an unseemly dispute arised, it inevitably tarnished the family's image. In their world, reputation was everything.

"I'm not so worried about the fallout; I'm more concerned about Chloe." After thinking for a moment, Grant said. "Adelaide's not someone you mess with. If we don't handle this right, it could mess up my engagement to Chloe."

Grant's priorities were clearly different from Stanley's.

"Mr. Martin, are you really serious about marrying Miss Davis?" Stanley asked, puzzled. Grant turned to him, looking confused. "Yeah, why? Got a problem with that?"

As an assistant, Stanley wouldn't dare voice an opinion. He rubbed his nose, hesitated, and then said, "Mr. Martin, there's talk that you have a mistress and that you've even acknowledged her in a video call.

With such a sweet and lovely mistress, you still want to marry Miss Davis? Isn't that stringing two women along?"

In fact, Stanley's words were diplomatic. What he really meant was, 'You're cheating and still want to marry Miss Davis? Isn't that being a bit of a player?'

Stanley's words left Grant utterly speechless. He didn't reveal to Stanley that Chloe had been purposefully downplaying her appearance. Instead, he shot him a sideways glance and muttered with biting sarcasm, "Are you blind or something?"

Stanley was baffled by the insult. He wasn't blind, just nearsighted. But even with glasses, how did he become "blind" in Grant's eyes?
