Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Novel

Chapter 1423 Chapter 1427 Tessa was thinking it would be best to find somewhere more secluded. Grace understood what Tessa meant and smiled. "Let's go to the study. There are too many people around here." +25 BONUS Hearing that, Lucas raised an eyebrow. He also found it a little odd, but when he met Grace's half-smiling gaze, curiosity flickered in his eyes. What exactly were they up to? This time, he was going along partly to see what Grace was planning. "Sure, the study it is," Lucas said directly. Grace and Tessa were both a little surprised.

They had expected to do more convincing, but Lucas agreed so easily that all their prepared words went unused. When he saw the two of them standing still, Lucas couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to lead the way?" "Oh yes, this way, please." Grace instinctively responded to his words. Even she didn't realize how naturally she obeyed Lucas. She was the elder, and Lucas was the junior, yet in front of him, she had no authority at all. Even Arnold noticed it, though he couldn't understand why Grace accepted it so quickly. It was as if Lucas treating her this way was perfectly normal.

For original chapters go to Find~Novel.net Tessa couldn't help but cover her face on the side-her mother was acting far too strange today. Even if nothing seemed wrong, anyone could tell something was. She almost couldn't bear to watch her mother's performance. Lucas arched a brow slightly, his long strides following Grace's lead. Neither of them noticed that he had naturally brought Tessa along too, as if her presence was always meant to be part of it. When the three of them entered the study, Lucas' aura immediately filled the room. In the small study, it almost felt too cramped for him.

Even Grace found it a bit stifling-she had always been the one others feared. For the first time, she understood what it felt like to be intimidated by someone else. Lucas sat on the sofa like a man in charge, his legs casually crossed. "Mom, standing for too long is tiring. I'll take a seat first," he said with ease. "Of course, no problem at all," Grace replied with a polite smile. "Are you hungry or thirsty? I can have Tessa prepare something for you." Lucas responded without hesitation, "No need for that. Didn't we just finish dinner?

If there's something you want to discuss, please say it directly. I still need to head back to be with Aurora." He said it so naturally that Grace couldn't help but blush slightly. She hadn't expected young people nowadays to be so bold-even someone from a top-tier family like Lucas was no exception. 1/2 Chapter 1427 It seemed these wealthy young men weren't much different from what she imagined. Tessa stood quietly beside them, her heart filling with envy as she listened. Why was Aurora's life so perfect? And why did she have nothing-forced to flatter Grace day after day?

Without her mother, she would have nothing at all. She even had to please those older men just to have what she had now. The jealousy within her nearly spilled over. Seeing that Lucas was beginning to lose patience, Grace quickly got to the point. +25 BONUS Chapter 1428
