"Grandpa! Bryce has been suffering from something so horrible lately that he's a little out of his mind. Please forgive Bryce!" Veronica approached Bryce frantically, reasoning that she was helping her husband.

Bryce saw his wife trying to defend him. The woman explained that Bryce wanted to defend his pride, which had been trampled on for almost two years.

"My mind is made up. You must divorce Bryce! I already have a new husband in mind for you. He's better than a rubbish man like him," Finley would not withdraw her words.

Bryce, who heard this, remained silent as he watched Veronica's face darken while Tiana and Marella smiled happily.

"Grandpa, you promised yesterday! If I can find Mr Grant of the Milan
