Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1954

Chapter 1954 I Will Make You Pay

As Grant departed, the three children stared at his leaving silhouette.

The silence was quickly broken by Estella's question. “Daddy, Mommy, isn't Granddad pitiful?”

Archie and Benny corrected their sister immediately. “No, Essie. Granddad isn't pitiful because he has always treated Mommy badly.”

Estella responded with a thoughtful nod.

Lucian and Roxanne didn't comment on the children's conversation, for they didn't feel the need to lecture them or shape their minds about the matter.

Instead, they respected the children's freedom to follow their gut feeling.

With that, the family continued playing camping games before leaving the park when darkness fell.

When Grant returned to his suffocatingly small apartment in a dilapidated neighborhood, he found Winnie playing on her phone and that she hadn't cooked dinner.

The sight triggered within him a sense of hatred for her.

His temper flared immediately. “What's the matter with you? Why didn't you prepare dinner? Do you think you're some rich housewife?”

His words elicited a vicious glower from Winnie.

“Why should I? I'm no longer your wife. Despite having five million in your hands, you didn't even save a single penny. How thick is that skull of yours? And what's this about me being a rich housewife? You're well aware of how I suffered together with you all these years. Now that your daughter is doing well, it's really ironic that you have fallen into such pathetic circumstances!”

Rage swelled within Grant after he was given a good round of tongue-lashing by Winnie.

“Why are you blaming me? Roxanne wouldn't have severed ties with us if you hadn't bullied her back then. Since you're in so much suffering, you're more than welcome to leave!”
