Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 132

“Don’t you dare touch him!” Daniel’s voice thundered through the room, raw and furious.

He glared at his mother. “Do you even know what your precious grandson has done? Yesterday, Kellen pulled some dramatic stunt, pretending to jump off a building. And of course, someone caught it all on video.”

Daniel’s jaw clenched. “I still can’t figure out why the videos haven’t blown up online, but people have already started sending them to me. They’re warning me to get my son under control, or he’ll ruin everything we’ve built at Salisbury Corporation.”

“And that’s not even the worst of it. Last night, he went to some ridiculous party—”

“I know,” Grandma Grace cut in. Her voice was calm, but tired. “I know everything.”

Daniel stared, speechless. “So, it was you? You covered for him?”

She nodded, looking weary. “What choice did I have? Should I just let our family fall apart? Let Wiona find out about all of this?”

She sighed. “Jace took Wiona to the gala last night, didn’t he? They’re finally starting to get along. I couldn’t just watch another mess get between them.”

“And Jace just couldn’t bear to stand by and watch Kellen die. As long as he explains things to Kellen afterward, it’s not such a big deal. If it takes some money to smooth things over, so be it.”

Daniel pressed his fingers to his temples. His head throbbed, but something in her words snagged his attention. “Wait. Wiona? You mean Wiona was with him last night?”

“Yes,” Grandma Grace replied. “Someone called and told me they saw Jace and his wife at the gala.” She turned to Jace. “Jace, why didn’t Wiona come home with you?”

Jace looked lost, his face pale and drawn. He shook his head. “Grandma, I wasn’t with Wiona.”

He glanced around, panic starting to rise. “What happened to Wiona? She’s not at home?”

Grandma Grace’s eyes widened. “What? If you weren’t with her, then who were you with?”

Jace dropped his gaze, shame creeping over his features. “Last night was a masquerade.”

The realization hit Grandma Grace. “Kellen. It was her again, wasn’t it?”

She shook her head, disappointment sharp in her voice. “You’ve lost your mind. Do you know Wiona is missing? Your mother set fire to the attic yesterday. She nearly burned down the whole house, then ran off and caused a scene at the Linscotts’.”

She didn’t stop. “Your sister split open Darian’s head. Did you know any of that? While all this chaos was happening, you were running around with that bitch at a party. You even got into a fight and used the Salisbury name.”
