THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 898

"As long as it's Catie and our Sweetie's child, I'd adore it even if it were a puppy."

Alaina chuckled at her mother's words. "If they actually gave birth to a puppy, believe me, you'd be scared to death!"

"I would not!" Beatrice huffed.

In truth, it wasn't just Beatrice who adored Caitlin; Alaina did too.

Soon, the news of Master Ninth and Miss Gonzales's suspected romance exploded across the internet. After all, one was a titan at the pinnacle of the financial world, and the other was the star of the most beautiful viral photo. The buzz around them even surpassed that of celebrity scandals. The story reached billions of impressions within two hours, and its popularity was still climbing.

The next morning, Flossie saw the news online and immediately drove to her family's home.

She found Old Mrs. Somerset dressed in an opera costume, singing a piece from *Carmen*.

Flossie watched, exasperated. "Mother, Gonzales Holdings has already terminated their contract with Somerset Group. How can you still be in the mood to sing?"

"What's there to be afraid of?" Old Mrs. Somerset glanced at Flossie. "Do you really think the Gonzales family will go through with terminating the contract?"

"It's not a matter of 'will they,' it's that they already have!"

Old Mrs. Somerset scoffed. "That's just Stuart's way of trying to scare us."

Old Mrs. Somerset paused. "She has a boyfriend?"

Who would want second-hand goods? It was incredible.

Her eyes narrowed. "Even if she has a boyfriend, he certainly can't compare to your brother! In that case, Stuart will have even more reason to come begging to us."

Any true powerhouse would want an equal partner. Someone like Caitlin could only find a man at her same level. Therefore, Jeremiah was still Caitlin's best option. Otherwise, why would Stuart be so impressed with him?

"Do you know who Miss Gonzales's boyfriend is?" Flossie asked.

Old Mrs. Somerset waved a dismissive hand. "Probably just some social climber."
