Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 288

Naomi believed in having fun while it lasted. Declan had money, looks, and when she needed it, the kind of power that could keep people off her back.

So what started as mutual use slowly turned into mutual interest.

And somehow, without either of them naming it, they'd ended up here.

Jasper's voice kept going, filling in the picture.

"The Grovers have four kids. The eldest is Beckett Grover—the heir with real control over the Grover Group."

"Second is Simon—the flashy one who just said hello."

He gave a humorless snort. "Don't underestimate Simon. He's a freak genius in the medical world."

"People say he was young and already leading teams on projects that made the industry lose its mind."

"The Grovers built their name on cosmetic medicine and luxury beauty clinics, and Simon was a big reason the business became what it is."

"Third is their daughter, Nancy Grover. She's considered one of Aethelburg's great beauties."

"But she's been sick since she was little—leukemia, supposedly—so she's mostly been abroad. She doesn't spend much time here."

"And the youngest is Luke Grover. He goes to Central University—same tier as Aethelburg University."

"Luke's been a campus star his whole life, and with the Grovers behind him, you can guess what his future looks like."

While Jasper explained, Maeve lounged back in the booth, lazily meeting Simon's gaze whenever he looked over.

The bar lights flashed and faded across her face, turning her into something like a dark angel—beautiful in a way that didn't feel safe.

Her beauty had teeth.

If she didn't radiate such a blunt, stay-away energy, half the men in the room would've been lining up just to talk to her.

Naomi caught the calculation in Maeve's eyes and lowered her voice. "Did the Grovers do something to you?"

Maeve didn't deny it. "Something that happened a year ago… it involved them."

Naomi and Jasper both froze.

Especially Jasper.
