Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 1564

Chapter 1564

"What does Grandma have to do with Gracie and Kelvin's drama? Aren't we discussing their issues right now?" Kisa said.

Sara was at a loss for words, her eyes wide and pleading as she looked at the Hoover family.

They did not care much for Kisa, but they were not exactly fond of Sara either.

Already annoyed by Sara's presumptuous behavior in drawing the surrounding guests into the conversation, the Hoover family offered her no support.

Just then, Kelvin finally emerged from his hiding place inside the house.

As soon as Kelvin appeared, Sara dashed over to him, her voice trembling with feigned innocence.

"Kisa accused me of trying to drive a wedge between you and Gracie.You need to explain to everyone that it is Gracie who wants a divorce over some petty issue.This has nothing to do with me."

Kelvin did not even glance her way; his anguished eyes were locked on Gracie.

Gracie's expression was icy, her gaze downcast and silent.

Seeing the tension between the couple, Mrs.Hoover realized that something had gone terribly wrong.

Gossip about Kelvin getting a divorce would soon spread like wildfire.

Enraged, Jacob raised his walking stick to strike Kelvin's leg.

"You little brat, you are going to disgrace our family!"

Kelvin's leg gave out from the blow, and he stumbled forward.Sara quickly caught him, her face a mask of concern, as she implored Jacob.

"Mr.Hoover Sr., please don't hit Kelvin.He is just as innocent.He didn't even suggest the divorce; it is Gracie who is not trusting him.Maybe she is confused about my relationship with Kelvin.If you must blame someone, blame me."

Her insinuation was clear: Gracie was the root of the whole divorce debacle.

Jacob shot Gracie a withering glare but remained silent.

With an air of false sincerity, Sara urged Gracie.
