Chapter 1001

• Gracy took a step forward, her tone calm yet firm. “President Stone, it’s true that my grandmother doesn’t have the best relationship with Liza, but she’s never been resentful toward her. That incident happened decades ago—she has moved on. Why would she suddenly decide to take it out on Liza now?”
• She then turned to Liza, her eyes filled with feigned sincerity. “Liza, I know President Stone loves you dearly, but you can’t take advantage of his affection to falsely accuse others. Grandma has always wanted you to come back and be part of the family, yet you’re treating her like this. Even if you dislike her, you shouldn’t go as far as slandering her!
• “You’re purposely acting weak to gain President Stone’s sympathy. Maybe he doesn’t see through it, but as women, we do. You’re just trying to drive a wedge between the Rhett Family and President Stone. What do you get out of this? Why can’t our families just coexist peacefully?”
