Divorce Failed! My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 969

Maeve looked at her with utter disgust. "I told you to stop calling me aunt Maeve. Technically, you're older than me."

Millie nodded profusely. "Alright. As long as you don't expose my dirty laundry, I'll call you whatever you want."

Seeing Millie act so subserviently, Maeve uncharacteristically felt a spark of curiosity.

"Were you set up in that video?"

Millie instantly felt like she had found a kindred spirit.

"You really have a sharp eye. It's all my fault for being young and stupid, hanging out with the wrong crowd, and ending up with leverage against me."

"You absolutely have to keep this a secret for me. If my dad finds out, he'll break my legs."

Maeve asked curiously, "Did your dad break Lucia's legs?"

Millie frowned. "What does this have to do with my sister?"

Maeve replied, "Wasn't she scammed by some D-list celebrity?"

Millie gasped. "How do you know about that?"

Maeve shrugged. "Whitty told me."

Millie couldn't help but glance over at Andres, who was currently socializing with the relatives.

"I never would have guessed my aloof uncle had a hobby of gossiping behind people's backs."

Since the two attended the same university and were roughly the same age, they naturally found more topics to discuss.

As they chatted, Millie brought up Anya Morales.

"The lawsuit between your sister and Mr. Warren from Bayside City has been settled. Apparently, the lawyers the Warren Family hired were absolute sharks."

"Initially, she could have gotten three years with a suspended sentence, but those lawyers maneuvered it into a straight seven-year prison term."

"Anya's luck is truly terrible. She had such a bright future ahead of her, and her life was ruined before she even graduated."

Anya ending up like this was entirely within Maeve's expectations.

The very first time she dealt with the Moraleses, she had already seen their future paths.

Whether it was Michael Perez, Slade Thorne, Declan Fulton, or Corbin Shaw, when she pulled out her knife with every intention of ending Nancy's life, they hadn't held her back or cowered in fear.

Instead, they had stood firmly by her side, which was the greatest support she could have asked for.

Nancy had narrowly escaped death, and upon returning home, she would undoubtedly run crying to her parents and brothers.

This meant that everyone present at the birthday party would inevitably be dragged onto the Grover family's enemy list.

When it came to major issues of right and wrong, Maeve was always highly principled.

Since her allies were willing to weather the storm with her, she would absolutely make sure they reaped the benefits.

Aside from Maeve's two die-hard friends, Jasper Jett and Naomi Lowell, Benjamin Bright was unsurprisingly on the guest list as well.

Ever since finding out about the connection between Benjamin and Charlie, Andres had subconsciously felt a sense of kinship toward him.

Perhaps this was the magnetic field effect Griffin had mentioned.

In response to Maeve's invitation, everyone who received a card eagerly RSVP'd.
