Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1778

“Madam Grace, I understand why you’re doing this. You’ve carried the Walton family on your shoulders for so many years.”

Arnold had always admired Grace deeply.

After following her for so long, he knew exactly what kind of person she was.

That was why he chose to stay by her side.

Many people never understood his loyalty, because Arnold was practically good at everything.

Even though he was getting older, none of his skills had ever faded.

Because of that, many tried to lure him away.

But he stayed with the Walton family, determined to give everything he had and to protect both Grace and Aurora.

He had long regarded them as his own daughter and granddaughter.

Thinking of this only strengthened his sense of duty.

He had never liked Tessa, and now he finally had a chance to act.

There was no way he would let it slip by.

No matter what, he had to give Grace a clear answer.

After Arnold left, Grace couldn’t help letting out a long sigh before sinking back into the sofa.

She still couldn’t understand how things had come to this.

She had always believed her two daughters got along well until the time Aurora fell ill—that incident tore open the first crack in their façade.

She realized she had been far too naïve.

Children never got along perfectly, and now that they were grown, they even put on a show for her.

In front of her, they acted harmonious, but once they stepped outside, they might not even acknowledge each other.

The thought made Grace uneasy. If something ever happened to her, what would become of the vast Walton Corporation?

Her mind suddenly replayed what Aurora had said.

She kept feeling as though Grace had been trying to coax something out of her, though she wasn’t sure whether she had slipped up.

From what she remembered, there shouldn’t have been a problem. Even Grace’s expression hadn’t changed.

So, Grace should have believed her story.

But when Tessa returned to the office, she froze at the sight of a man sitting inside. She quickly shut the door behind her, startled.

“Are you out of your mind? Why would you show up at my company right now?”

Sean didn’t care at all. He casually poured himself a cup of tea.

“What’s the panic? You’re my daughter. Why can’t I visit my own daughter’s company?”

“Will you shut up already!”

Tessa nearly rushed over to cover his mouth.

She never expected Sean to be bold enough to walk straight into her office.
