Chapter 518
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
âBy the way, I wonder what your relationship is with Jason? Why donât you tell us and satisfy our curiosity?â asked Elsie Jordan.
Grace smiled and said, âThatâs personal, and I donât think itâs convenient to tell you.â
As soon as she said this, the three women suddenly took on a ghastly expression. Tasha Farmer, the daughter of a chairman of a convenience store chain, immediately said, âThatâs not a very nice thing to say. Is there something shameful in the story that you dare not tell us?â
Graceâs face darkened a little. There it was⦠Even though she wanted to avoid it, she could not.
Felicia Kemp, the granddaughter of a five-star hotel owner, stared at Graceâs face with a slight frown.
She looked as if she was thinking about something.
Tasha Farmer continued to probe aggressively, âCould it be that you played some tricks to get involved with Jason?â
Grace pursed her lips slightly. âSorry, Iâve got something to do, so I need to go,â she said and tried to leave.
These three women were obviously here to find fault with her. She would only be picked on more if she continued to stay here. The best way was to avoid them.
She wanted to avoid them, but they would not let her.
Tasha Farmer stood in front of her and said, âWhat are you leaving for? Why donât you answer our question first? Thereâs nothing to hide. If you donât have something to hide, why donât you just tell us?â
Grace raised her eyes and looked at the woman in front of her. She knew that todayâs events might not end well. Since there was no way to avoid them, she just had to face it.
âMiss Farmer, isnât it? Arenât there rumors going around lately about your familyâs convenience store chain evading taxes? If Iâm not mistaken, this matter is being looked into by the tax bureau, am I right?
Why donât you tell me whatâs going on? Are you and your family evading taxes? If itâs a misunderstanding, how did it come about? By the way, Iâve also heard that the tax bureau officer handling this case is related to your family. Why donât you tell us what kind of relationship is it? Thereâs nothing to hide, so you probably wonât mind telling us about it.â
Graceâs words immediately made Tasha Farmerâs face turn pale. After all, the revelation of tax evasion had been the most embarrassing thing for her family these days, and they were trying their best to put those rumors to rest.
Today, she had come to the banquet for the purpose of getting help from Elsie Jordan and Felicia Kemp. Their families had many connections with the tax bureau. If they would help, it would be easy for her family to settle the matter.
Now that Grace had said so, how could she answer those questions?
âWho the hell are you to ask me that?â Tasha Farmer glared at Grace, feeling offended.
Grace sneered. âWho the hell are you then? I guess you have double standards with your ânothing to hide!. What law says I have to tell you about myself?â
âYouâ¦â People usually treated Tasha Farmer with honor and respect. When had anyone treated her so badly? She raised.
her hand to slap Grace, but Grace raised her hand and waved it away.
Grace turned around. She did not want to stay any longer to avoid this matter from escalating. Just then, Felicia Kemp, who had been silent all along, shouted, âI remember now. Youâre Sean Stevensâs ex-girlfriend, arenât you? You killed Jasonâs fiancée, Jennifer Atkinson, in an accidentâ¦â
Even Felicia Kemp found it unbelievable as she continued.
The person responsible for Jennifer Atkinsonâs death was now dating Jason?!
