Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time

Chapter 496

Neither Georgina nor Katie had expected Granger to be so polite to them, yet so unyielding when it came to turning Leah down-right in front of their faces, no

less.

Of course, Georgina still hoped that something might work out between Leah and Granger.

She managed a smile, trying to ease the awkwardness in the room, leaving some space for a possible change of heart. "It's true, Leah was out of line this time. We'll have a good talk with her later. I'm so sorry for interrupting your meeting. Maybe next time, I'll have Vesta bring Leah over so she can apologize to you properly-"

"That won't be necessary," Granger cut in, seeing exactly what she was trying to do. "As for matters of the heart..."

He paused, his eyes briefly flickering to Charlene before continuing, "No one can be forced. Ms. Spencer and I simply aren't right for each other. I hope you'll encourage her to move on, so she doesn't waste her time-or her future-on me."

At this point, there wasn't much left for Georgina to misunderstand.

She glanced at Charlene, who had been entirely detached from the drama, calmly sipping her tea as if she were just there to watch the Spencer family make fools of themselves.

Georgina's smile faltered; she gave a strained little laugh and said, "You're right. I'll have a serious talk with Leah."

"Thank you, I appreciate it."

Leah, mortified, had already fled the room. Once Georgina and Katie had followed her out and closed the door behind them, Granger finally turned to Charlene. "Sorry about that," he said, "I didn't mean to waste your time."
