A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband

Chapter 141

After nearly a week, Aubree finally emerged from the prosecutor’s office, her hair disheveled and her face dirty, a gloomy air emanating from her.

Without the support of high-level cosmetics, her face was dark and yellow, making her look ten years older than she was, with several strands of white hair appearing.

Avoiding the swarming reporters, she dared not go home in such a state, for fear that Jake would see her and the image she had so carefully crafted would be ruined.

Accompanied by Skyler in secret, she went to the beauty room, took a bath, changed into a new set of clothes, pulled out her white hair, and put on her makeup. Only then did she feel brave enough to go out and meet someone.

“Don’t head back yet. Let’s go visit Grace.”

Aubree stood before the mirror, her expression glum. “She is, after all, my biological niece. I can’t turn a blind eye to the fact that she has sacrificed half of her life. I must demonstrate my compassion and benevolence to your father.”

For twenty-five years, she had established a certain image of herself and was determined not to break it!

*Mom! Grace even attempted suicide!”

Although Skyler loathed Grace, she still had a lingering dread when she contemplated the gory bathroom. “Let’s not debate. whether Joseph believed her act or not. If she feigned it, if others discovered that it was too late, her life would be forfeited. She was really hard on herself!”

“Ah, how could someone have found her in time?” Aubree put away the small mirror and raised her eyebrows in ridicule.

Skyler was taken aback for a second. Then, it dawned on her and she exclaimed, “Mom! Did you know…?”

Aubree, placing her index finger between her lips, motioned for Skyler to be quiet.

She had the idea of making Grace take her own life in an extreme manner in order to compel Joseph.

In the past. Aubree employed this technique to evoke Jake’s sympathy and urge to safeguard her, and it worked; she was able to join the Sawle family and now enjoys the prestige she has today.

Joseph was also deeply tormented by depression, and it was Grace who helped him out of the darkness.

Were he to relive the nightmare from before, he would be reminded of the advantages of Grace time and again. Despite the danger, the rewards were great!

“Even if Grace isn’t the best option, I can’t let Joseph and that despicable Chloe have any chance of reuniting!”

Aubree had endured much hardship during the prosecution these past few days. At this moment, when she thought of Chloe, she wanted to take a bite out of Chloe’s neck. “Chloe, you dare to cross me… I, Aubree, swear to battle you to the bitter end! I will never let you have a moment’s peace!”
