Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 35 Who Is As Rich As Him?

They hadn’t reunited for years and were excited.

Kadence was a social butterfly. Talkative, she could have a nice chat. with anyone else. However, people were surprised to see Peyton.

Some people surrounded her and asked, “Peyton, did you get married? Come on. How could you not invite us? Do you think we may embarrass you?”

Before Peyton could answer, another piercing female voice sounded. “I don’t think so. She is the one who may embarrass us! Maybe she hid somewhere because her family went bankrupt.”

It was Grace Logan, who used to be on bad terms with Peyton. At that time, the Logan family was not as rich as the Schmitt family. And Peyton always outshone Grace.

Grace was born into a rich family. She was pretty. But when compared with Peyton, she would be overshadowed. So she believed that it was Peyton’s fault.

Now, the Schmitt family had gone bankrupt. Peyton finally showed up after disappearing for a long time. Of course, Grace would not miss the chance to laugh at Peyton.

Bruce Morris, their monitor, hurried to say, “Grace, don’t say that. Things change. You shouldn’t laugh at her pain. We haven’t seen each other for a long time. Forget about that.”

Grace rolled her eyes. Since she respected Bruce, she stopped. “OK. I won’t talk about that again. But I do think she is thick–skinned. She’s been hiding for all these years. But she came back for the project!”
