Chapter 1285

• “The Rhett Family is done for,” Simon muttered bitterly, his voice shaking with frustration. “What good is an heir when the family name is in ruins? We've made enemies with the Hadid family, and now, who in their right mind would want to do business with the Rhett Family? Gracy, you’re so wrapped up in yourself, you’ve forgotten the bigger picture. Without the Rhett Family’s name, who do you think you are?” He pointed at his granddaughter, his words sharp and full of contempt.
• Reeky, still unwilling to accept the blame, muttered under her breath, “It’s not Gracy’s fault. This is all Liza’s doing.”
• Simon’s chest tightened at her words, and the weight of the situation seemed to crush him. The empire he had worked tirelessly to build was crumbling before his eyes. The reputation of the Rhett Family was shattered, and everyone turned their backs on them—because of Gracy, Madam Emili, and Reeky. His head spun, and the taste of blood rose in his throat. He felt the pressure in his chest build, and before he could react, everything went black. He collapsed.
