The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1852

Ever since Mayor Solloway “accidentally” revealed the marriage alliance between his son and the Salvador family, news of it had spread throughout Savrow’s upper society.

People congratulated him but secretly mocked him for doing anything to climb the social ladder, even marrying his only son to a mentally ill woman for the sake of his career.

When the rumors reached Nigel, the old man naturally became even more displeased with this marriage. However, every time he opposed it, Gregory would bring up how the Hoffman family mistreated his daughter and used it against Nigel again.

“Back then, I was firmly against Carrie being with that brat from the Hoffman family, but you insisted on matchmaking them, placing our precious flower into a pile of cow dung that is the Hoffman family! This made Carrie the laughing stock of all Savrow!

“Not only that, you humiliated me in front of Justin and Ryan, treating my good intentions as worthless, and stripped me of any dignity as the head of the family. What did all your efforts achieve? You pushed your most beloved granddaughter into this situation!”

Nigel’s gray eyebrows knitted tightly as he exhaled a breath of frustration. “I’m your father. Do you think I don’t know what you’re up to? You don’t really care about Carrie. You only care about your own reputation. You’re just holding a grudge!”

Gregory clenched his teeth hard.

“Do you know the Solloway boy well? Do you know what kind of person he is? I chose Ryan not only because my granddaughter likes him but also because he is Justin’s best friend. They grew up together, so they know each other inside out!”

Nigel continued, “Despite the chaos within the Hoffman family, Ryan has stood out as an exceptional leader. Lately, you’ve been putting Hoffman Group under intense scrutiny, disrupting their projects. But Ryan, as the CEO of Hoffman Group, has managed to keep morale high and tackle each challenge you’ve thrown their way. I’m confident he can also handle the troublemakers within the Hoffman family.”

Upon hearing this, Gregory’s gaze darkened.

He knew that everything he said was out of anger. Deep down, he still favored Ryan. It seemed that Nigel’s anger had toned down. He still wanted Carrie to be with Ryan.

Justin already had control of half of Salvador Corporation’s operations, and his influence was steadily growing. But if Gregory couldn’t even control his own daughter’s marriage, wouldn’t that be yet another blow to his pride and reputation?

“Most importantly, Carrie is not like any other ordinary child!” Nigel thought of the suffering his beloved granddaughter had endured, his eyes welling up with tears. “You know how much she likes Ryan! They haven’t been separated for long, and you’re already eager to marry her off to a stranger she hasn’t even met? As her father, you don’t care about your daughter at all. Is your brain muddled or something?!”

Gregory clenched his teeth. “Carrie and Jason were high school classmates. They studied together for three years, so they knew each other well. Besides, Carrie has already agreed to this marriage.”
