Dennis clutched his chest even harder. With a strong sense of morality and decency, he couldn’t grandson cheating; his first instinct was to scold his eldest grandson harshly and tell him to stop fooling around with women outside his marriage. Those shameless little hussies who worm their way into other people’s marriages–what kind of decent girls could they possibly be? Is my grandson blind?

But before he could get a word out, he heard his younger grandson add, “The one James went on a date with was some horrendously ugly little sissy.”

“What?”

Dennis liked watching short videos online, so he was pretty familiar with some of the slang trending among younger people.

Still, he hoped the “sissy” his grandson mentioned wasn’t the kind he was thinking of

Then came the words that crushed the last bit of hope in his heart.

“James likes men.”

“Oh my!”

Dennis collapsed onto the couch, clutching his chest. “My blood pressure’s spiking! Someone get me my medication!”

James‘ uncle, Jamie, had also heard the commotion. When he realized that his brilliant and gifted nephew actually liked men, it felt like the sky was falling

He wasn’t prejudiced against certain groups, not really. But when it was his own family–it was just too much. He felt like he needed blood pressure meds too.

Unfortunately, both Dennis and Jamie were full of energy, had healthy appetites, and had never shown signs of hypertension. Naturally, the house didn’t have any medication on hand. Jamie had no choice but to call the butler and order him to buy some as fast as humanly possible.

“Lord have mercy, w

what a curse, what a curse…”

Dennis lay sprawled on the plush leather couch, completely devastated.

He was growing more and more convinced that Elsa was no good. His grandson had been acting like he was under a spell, hovering around her all the time. In this state, there was no way that boy would ever find a proper partner.

Dennis had already given up on Simon getting married or having kids.

But his eldest grandson–he had been his last hope. Not only had he miraculously woken up from a vegetative state, but he’d also married a goud, decent girl. In a year or two, they might’ve even had a great- grandchild. Wouldn’t that have been perfect?

He and his wife had already prepared their gift for the baby’s first meeting. And now–like a bolt of lightning on a sunny day–it had all been shattered in an instant.

Chapter 277 Dennis Needs a Lie Down

Henry glanced over at Dennis with sympathy. He understood Dennis‘ despair, truly, he did.

But with how far gone his grandson was–so firmly on the other side–there was nothing he could say to comfort Dennis. He couldn’t even comfort himself. All he could do was let out a heavy sigh

Zoey held her chest and took a long moment to steady herself before she finally spoke again.

“In both the Luke and Bale families, we don’t believe in divorce. James, you cut things off with that wild man outside. Lily is such a good girl, you can’t betray her like this!”

Lily quietly clenched the hem of her shirt

She felt a little guilty. Because that wild man was actually her.

“He’s not some wild

he’s the p person I love.”

James was worried that the family might start digging into Leila’s identity, disrupting his peaceful life.

After a moment of hesitation, he added, “I won’t be seeing him anymore. But I still have to divorce Lily. Even if I’m not with him, I still can’t be with a woman.”

He knew that even if he eventually convinced the family to approve of the divorce, after the papers were signed, they’d immediately start trying to set him up with other women. But in this lifetime, wanted Leila.

To prevent necessary trouble, he decided to be blunt and leave no room for

any more negotiation.

After all, no one in this family would ever introduce him to a man.

“I only like men. There’s no need to waste Lily’s life on me. I hope you’ll all agree to let me divorce her.”

Henry and the other elders looked at one another, none of them speaking right away.

In that moment, a flood of thoughts raced through their minds.

They hoped Lily could somehow “fix” James, steer him straight, so he wouldn’t go all the way down this path. But their grandson had already cheated–and on top of that, He was gay. To let Lily spend the best years of her life on someone like that–it just wouldn’t be fair.

They couldn’t be selfish and ruin her life. And even if they did agree to the divorce, the one who would walk away hurt and humiliated was still Lily.

Henry looked at her, guilt clouding his face, and said helplessly, “Lily, James has wronged you. From now on, you’re my granddaughter. Our entire Luke family will always have your back.”

Dennis nodded in agreement. His grandson was so f had no choice but to let him horrendously ugly sissy, with that face of his–and all that money–there were bound to be more wild
