She Became Rich After Divorce by Georgina Lane

Chapter 271: Being Used As a Weapon

Three people stood in the corridor, a scene observed by many students. “Love triangle” was one of the most gossip-worthy topics.

The speculation was rampant. It seemed like Peyton had won because Graeme appeared to be on her side and allowed her to hold his hand.

This was expected, after all. No matter what, Peyton was a virgin while Kate was not. Her looks didn’t compare to Kate’s, and her family background was far less impressive.

However, the Mathews family had money of its own, and they didn’t need to marry Kate to secure their business.

“Alright, you guys, stop arguing. The principal is already getting impatient, and we might get scolded.” A girl with long hair suddenly opened the office door and walked out, speaking softly to the three of them. Upon hearing this, Graeme looked at Peyton and, for the first time, put down his usual aloof demeanor, asking softly, “Do you want me to go with you?”

Peyton’s eyes brightened. This was exactly what she hoped for.

She had been worried that the principal might compromise due to Kate’s background, and her family couldn’t compete with these wealthy students. If she got expelled, she might not have another chance to attend school.

Additionally, the Mathews family would never accept a tainted woman as their daughter-in-law. She was scared of the future. Graeme’s offer was like a lifeline to her.

She could also take this chance to rub salt in Kate’s wounds.

One was filled with books, and the other was filled with documents in leather binders. To the left upon entering the room was a set of black leather sofas from IKEA, and on a matching marble coffee table, there was an expensive teapot set. The room was lavishly furnished.
