Chapter 1015
One of them spoke up, “Grant, what the hell, man? Cheating is one thing, but with a chick thirty years younger? And
you’re sponging off your stepdaughter, borrowing money and not repaying it, letting people chase her for it? Dude,
I’m
embarrassed for you!”
Grant was visibly pale.
Mockery filled the looks thrown his way, a new experience for someone whose life had been smooth sailing. Peyton
listened to the others‘ assessment of Grant, momentarily speechless. This was how they saw him? Had she been
blind to Grant’s true nature for the past twenty years?
“Grant, we’re busy. Can you and your wife argue later?” Davin interrupted. “Just tell me, are you going to pay up or

Grant’s face froze, his expression turning rigid.
He was having a huge argument with Logan, so he wasn’t worried about affecting Logan’s marriage, but… when
they just got engaged, the Sharp family invested over ten million dollars in his overseas factory. If the wedding was
called off, they’d definitely try to get their money back.
And he wasn’t ready to deal with that yet.
“Fine!” Grant gritted his teeth, “Just you wait!” After speaking, he picked up the constantly crying woman and went
upstairs. Moments later, he came back with a cheque.
Davin didn’t expect it to go this smoothly.
But looking at the amount, he was taken aback, “Did you miscalculate? What about our emotional distress
compensation? Nine people, nine hundred thousand!”
“I only have this much. For the rest, you can go after Peyton or Paige, I won’t pay a dime,” Grant frowned in disgust,
“If you want to make a scene, then forget this money!”
Davin was speechless.
The group weighed their options.
Decided to cash in for now, and continue to demand emotional distress compensation later.
“Alright!” Davin forced a smile, “We won’t interrupt your marital spat then.”
Peyton surprisingly asked, “Davin, I’m your sister after all. I’ve helped you guys so much over the years. Now that
I’m in trouble, you’re not going to help?” She was upset that her family wasn’t helping when she was in trouble, yet
outsiders were protecting her.
“Your son–in–law is so capable, go ask him!”
After Davin said this, he left the villa Grant bought for his mistress with her family.

Grant was furious. He slammed the door shut and drew the curtains.
“Are you happy now?” Grant glared at Peyton, “The money I managed to scrape together for emergencies is now
all gone. Your family took it all. Are you satisfied?”
“Sir, how can you be so confident?” The people Peyton hired responded silently.
Peyton finally realized. Yes, how could he be so full of confidence? What did this have to do with her? He was the
one who couldn’t manage the company properly, and she had even used all her savings to help him out.
“Grant, I want a divorce!”
At this point, Peyton shouted this out emotionally, her voice was even a bit hoarse.
Grant was stunned.
The people Peyton hired applauded vigorously. “You’re doing the right thing. You should cut ties with this guy!”
“I’ll get a lawyer, divide our assets, and after drafting the divorce agreement, I’ll have you sign it immediately. You
can then be with that worthless woman peacefully!”
After saying this, Peyton turned and left.
