Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 185

"The Louises may not be one of the best among the gentry families in Whaldorf City, but they're definitely ranked on top. It’s not only because they're rich but also because several generations of their ancestors were officials.

"Grayson is the only exception. He enjoyed fighting since childhood, and although he later started an official business when he grew up, he managed to develop his own power and became a resounding figure.

"In his youth, Grayson met Petra, a girl in university who came from the countryside. She came to Whaldorf City to study. It was love at first sight, but the Louises disliked Petra because of her birth origin and refused to let Grayson marry her. The hardheaded Petra left Whaldorf City when she was pregnant. It was said that she returned to Salt City to marry an honest man.

"Though who would've thought that this honest man turned out to be dishonest? He resented the fact that Petra was pregnant before she got married and dumped the child after she was born. Petra was in so much pain after learning about it that she divorced the man.

"Later, she went abroad with a wealthy businessman, who was also her third husband. Eventually, she became famous abroad for her designs and created her own successful business. Though unfortunately, her husband died two years ago due to an illness, so she came back and rekindled her relationship with Grayson. She also found her long-lost daughter."

At this point, Molly looked at Tyler. Tyler’s face was dark and profound. There was not a single expression on it.

She then looked at me and continued, "You know her daughter. It's Cindy. As they suddenly have a daughter now, the Louises are said to have acknowledged Petra. At the same time, they announced that they’ve accepted Cindy back into the family again.

"I heard that the Louises pampers the beautiful and generous Miss Cindy very much. They've not only invited a professional to give her lessons on how to be a socialite but are also preparing to throw a massive party to announce Cindy’s identity to the public."

The string of words that Molly uttered did make it sound like she was telling a story.

However, I was annoyed to hear it and looked up at her. "These are all stories of other people. I’m not interested. If this is all you're going to tell me, then I'm sorry, I'm not interested.”

"Take it easy, Miss Lane. This may seem like it has nothing to do with you, but your husband has a major involvement in it. Therefore, I think it's necessary that you understand the background story.” Molly looked a t me, not annoyed or furious. Her lips were even curled into a smile.

I sneered. "That's what you think. Thanks for the attention, guys, but no matter what my husband does, I'll still trust him. I don’t want to hear anything about him from other people."
