Henry caught his wife’s encouraging look, took a few exaggerated breaths, then clutched his chest and dropped to the floor like he was having a heart attack.

“Lily is the only woman we’ve ever accepted as our granddaughter–in–law, and I won’t let you divorce her! If you go through with this, what–are you trying to give me a heart attack? Trying to put me in the ground? Ah, my chest… I can’t take this. He’s going to put me in the hospital at this rate!”

When Grace shot him another glare, Henry immediately flopped back, legs stiff, pretending to pass out.

Grace wiped her eyes, getting choked up. “You poor thing… You’ve always loved James so much, and now he’s breaking your heart. Why does life have to be so hard on you? If anything happens to you, I don’t want to live either…”

Blanc helped hoist Henry onto Ivan’s back, then shot James a fierce glare. “Don’t bring up divorce again. If Grandpa actually ends up in the hospital over this, you’re going to answer for it. I swear I won’t forgive you.”
