The gentle and mellow voice was mixed with some light panting as if the owner of the voice had run all the way here.

Everyone looked at the gates and saw Caleb Gray walking in.

Dressed in a gray suit, he gave off a comfortable feeling that felt just like a spring breeze.

His chest rose up and down slightly as he panted.

His deep, melancholic eyes shifted to Nora after he spoke.

He nodded politely and gently at her and said, "I rushed over immediately when I saw the live-stream.I almost messed things up for you.’ 

Nora: “???"

Wasn't he her ex-fiance Anthony Gray's uncle? He had approached her to fulfill the marriage agreement between the Grays and her the other time.

What was he doing here? While she was wondering about it, Caleb turned to Henry.

The attitude he took with him was completely different from the one he adopted toward Nora.

He even sounded a little disgusted as he said, "Do you really think that no one knows the truth about what happened back then, Mr.Smith?"

Henry, who had been punched, was holding his nose.

Blood seeped from in between his fingers.

When he heard what Caleb said, he frowned.

"What truth are you talking about?"

Caleb replied, "The truth about your marriage to Ms.Anderson!"

Henry's eyes flickered.

"What I said just now is the truth itself.What nonsense are you spouting? Are you guys planning to twist the truth? Also, who are you? How dare you come over to help that unfilial girl!" Caleb sighed.

"I'm from the Grays." The Grays? An astounded Henry looked at him.

"What?"

Nora could clearly sense that there was something going on in here.

She thought of the marriage agreement, and how the Smiths were just a small family, whereas the Grays were a large and famous wealthy family in California.
