Chapter 69 Consider Xander
“I was busy,” Grace said with a smile.
Hestia had always been close to Grace’s mother. After both of Grace’s parents had passed away, Hestia and her husband, Raymond Fulton, had been the ones who had taken care of Grace and her siblings.
It was only after Grace had turned 18 years old that Hestia stopped worrying about her and started traveling the world.
She had always been a mother figure to Grace during her childhood, so Grace had always considered her family.
Grace looked around and smirked at Hestia. “Aunt Hestia, where’s Uncle Raymond?”
“Why are we talking about him?” Hestia pretended to be angry. “Don’t mention that guy.‘
“Okay.” Grace tried not to laugh. Hestia and Raymond Fulton were like cats and dogs. They would always bicker when they were together but worry about each other when they weren’t.
When they had been younger, they had gotten divorced in the heat of an argument.
But Raymond had immediately regretted it. Thus, he had begun his hard–knock life of trying to get his wife back.
He hadn’t even cared about managing his company, Fulton Group, anymore. He had dumped it on Xander, who hadn’t even turned 18 years old at the time, and started following his wife around the world.
“Grace, Aaron told me about your divorce. Why are you still treating marriage like a game when you’re already such a big girl?” Hestia tapped Grace’s nose, looking at her fondly.
“What did I teach you? If you get bullied, you need to fight back,” Hestia said. “You’re my precious girl. Fulton Group and Amirate Corporation’s got your back.”
“I didn’t say anything because I didn’t want my family to worry.” Grace said pitifully and .clung to Hestia’s arm even more tightly. “I’m sorry.”
It wasn’t that Grace never showed signs of weakness. She just thought her gentle side was reserved for her loved ones.
Hestia suddenly sighed after Grace’s sincere apology, prompting her to ask, “What’s wrong, Aunt Hestia?”
