Chapter 13 Shouldn’t You Call Me ‘Honey’?

After listening to grandmother's reasons, Liam still refused to give up. "We all know that Grace is uneducated. She will only be an embarrassment to our family if she marries Phoenix!" he added, "I will never agree to such absurdity!"

This matter was indeed absurd. The wedding had been held once. If everyone found out that Phoenix would have a new bride, the Wallers and Johnstons would become the laughing stock of Jelson city.

I voiced my opinions.

Libby softened a little and praised, "Such an understanding girl."

Grandmother saw that I was unwilling to marry and said, "Grace, go and check on Aunt Sarah."

I knew she was trying to distract me.

While I hesitated, Aunt Elsa came over and brought me to the maids' room.

The maid's room was not far from the living room. I leaned against the door of the room to listen. I heard my grandmother saying that those four per cent of shares could earn a dividend of more than a million dollars a year.

Yet I've never seen them before.
