The Contracted Ever After novel Chapter 185

In the well-known Radiant Star Hotel in Millstone, Grant booked a single room where only he and Ronan were present.

"Grant, how's your love life going?" Ronan asked in a teasing tone.

"Mr. Evans, don't make fun of me. My wife had an affair, and it was so embarrassing. But what could she do? She's a woman with no money and no power. She's just asking for trouble, and no one's stopping her. She even wants me to get back with her every day," Grant replied.

Ronan chuckled, "You handled it quite smartly."

"We're the same, you and I. How would you deal with this kind of thing? Since that woman left, I've been living quite comfortably. Seeing her struggling makes me even happier. I heard her lover found another rich woman and dumped her," said Grant. "I heard your wife is a good woman. This wouldn't happen to you, right? I heard that your wife and Thomas' son..."

Ronan raised an eyebrow. "He's asking for trouble. I won't stop him."

"I know your resolve. Anyway, I wanted to tell you something today. Shayla passed away. Did you know? She got sick in prison, and I'm worried someone might want to harm you," Grant told him seriously.

"It's been so many years. I don't think it'll cause any trouble. I still have her recordings."

Grant nodded. "That's good. Back in the day, your dad's Signature Estates was so powerful, it was about to become the biggest in Millstone. Thomas and the others were so jealous that they seduced Shayla..."

"Let's not talk about it, let the past be the past," Ronan cut him off.

"All in all, be careful. Your wife can be with anyone else, just not with Thomas' son, isn't that asking for trouble?" Grant expressed his dissatisfaction.

"Who else could she be with but me?"

"That's true, as long as you can control her," said Grant. "Also, you set up the Audit Department, which has caused a stir in Millstone. Are you taking other jobs?"

"Why, do you need an audit?" Ronan asked, twirling his teacup.
