The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 618

Leah rolled her eyes dismissively. "Why would I even bother with that?"

She shot Mrs. Posner a look, a mix of confusion and irritation crossing her face. "What's got you bringing up that cursed name all of a sudden?"

Marian exchanged a puzzled glance with Mrs. Posner, who then handed her smartphone to Leah. "Just look at this, it's the top trending topic—Penelope and that Grace person."

#PenelopeCaresForAllison'sMother#

The moment Leah saw the hashtag, her vision darkened.

She tapped on the trending topic, and a video started playing.

There was Penelope, waiting outside an OR, alongside Grace. And the words Allison had posted—'My mother is your mother'—nearly sent Leah into a fit of rage.

That foolish Penelope!

Leah stood abruptly. "Margo!!"

Margo lumbered down the stairs, her ample frame swaying. "Yes, ma'am?"

Leah's face was a thundercloud as Margo approached cautiously.

"Get Penelope down here this instant! What is she up to? What was she doing last night?" How dare she spend time with Grace?

Mrs. Posner and Marian glanced at each other before standing. "Well, if you have matters to attend to, we'll take our leave. We can catch up another time."

At this point, Leah was in no mood for pleasantries. She barely nodded, and the maid hurried to escort the ladies out.

She looked down at the phone and sure enough, she was trending.

The video Emma had taken last night had gone viral, with views in the millions.

And Allison had tagged her, spouting sentimental nonsense like 'your mother is my mother.' Penelope clenched her teeth—Allison had done this on purpose!

She had been outsmarted again!

"Mom, I was set up by Allison. You don't understand, I just... I saw Grace fainting and there was no one around, so I took her to the hospital. I had paparazzi ready to catch Allison off guard. Everyone knows how much she adores Grace, and she'd do anything for her. But the fact is, Grace got sick, and Allison wasn't there to care for her—only I was. I thought I could spin this to my advantage, with all the press arranged and everything. But then Allison turned the tables on me."

"Oh, Mom, please don't be mad. How could I ever see someone as lowly as Grace as family? That would be an insult to me. In my heart, the only one who truly matters is you."
