Chapter 1015
One of them spoke up, “Grant, what the hell, man? Cheating is one thing, but with a chick thirty years younger? And you’re sponging off your stepdaughter, borrowing money and not repaying it, letting people chase her for it? Dude, I’m
embarrassed for you!”
Grant was visibly pale.
Mockery filled the looks thrown his way, a new experience for someone whose life had been smooth sailing. Peyton listened to the others‘ assessment of Grant, momentarily speechless. This was how they saw him? Had she been blind to Grant’s true nature for the past twenty years?
“Grant, we’re busy. Can you and your wife argue later?” Davin interrupted. “Just tell me, are you going to pay up or not? If not, we have other matters to attend to.” Then, Davin added, “By the way, is Logan Sutton getting married?”
Grant’s face froze, his expression turning rigid.
He was having a huge argument with Logan, so he wasn’t worried about affecting Logan’s marriage, but… when they just got engaged, the Sharp family invested over ten million dollars in his overseas factory. If the wedding was called off, they’d definitely try to get their money back.
And he wasn’t ready to deal with that yet.
“Fine!” Grant gritted his teeth, “Just you wait!” After speaking, he picked up the constantly crying woman and went upstairs. Moments later, he came back with a cheque.
Davin didn’t expect it to go this smoothly.
But looking at the amount, he was taken aback, “Did you miscalculate? What about our emotional distress compensation? Nine people, nine hundred thousand!”
“I only have this much. For the rest, you can go after Peyton or Paige, I won’t pay a dime,” Grant frowned in disgust, “If you want to make a scene, then forget this money!”
Davin was speechless.
The group weighed their options.
“Your son–in–law is so capable, go ask him!”
“Are you happy now?” Grant glared at Peyton, “The money I managed to scrape together for emergencies is now all gone. Your family took it all. Are you satisfied?”
