Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1876

If matters could be treated so lightly, what reason was there for the company to exist at all?

They might as well set up a street stall and rely on passing customers.

The thought even made Grace find it absurd.

Then she slowly turned her gaze back to Tessa.

She genuinely wanted to know how the child she had raised with her own hands, cherished since childhood, could claim she had been driven to such extremes.

How exactly had Tessa lived through all of this?

Grace knew she had treated her well—better, even, than her own biological child—yet it was still never enough.

What did this world truly demand?

When she heard Grace’s words, Tessa’s eyes darted away.

In truth, she had only said those things out of desperation at the time.

Objectively speaking, Grace had treated her very well.

But once she found her father, her ambitions grew larger.

Some choices, then, could no longer be blamed on anyone else.

It could only be said that everything had led to this moment.

“Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Grace pressed again.

“I… I don’t know what to say…”

Tessa’s voice was timid and hesitant.

Clearly, she knew she had been terribly wrong this time, especially after being exposed in front of so many members of the Walton family.

Even if Grace wanted to cover for her, there was no way to do so now.

Realizing this, Tessa slowly closed her eyes, as if giving up entirely.

“Do whatever you want with me, but I believe… you won’t have the heart to do it, Mom.”

Tessa began to play the sympathy card.

“Mom, think carefully, when Aurora argued with you back then, who stayed by your side?

“Who was the one taking care of you? It was me. And at that time, I already knew you weren’t my biological mother.”
