Chapter 297: Chapter 298

Nobody expected Ramona, with her seemingly kind and gentle eyes, to come at Bryant with such a sharp retort. It took all I had to suppress my laughter. But then again, I seemed to be the only one who could find humor in the situation.

The air was thick with awkwardness. What made things awkward wasn’t Ramona’s statement. It was that I, his ex-wife, happened to be right there.

I lowered my head, pretending to be engrossed in the view outside the window, trying to make myself inconspicuous.

The snow outside, not yet melted, was blinding.

I felt a gaze fixed on me and then heard Bryant’s calm voice, “Yes, freshly divorced.”

Ramona glanced at Dorothy, her tone cooling, “I heard you played a part in this?”

“Grandma...” Dorothy frowned, shooting me a veiled glare before gracefully sitting beside Ramona, gently shaking her arm. “Who’s been filling your head with nonsense? Bryant’s marriage was over long before. It’s just that...”

“I’ll ask you just one thing.” Ramona eyed Dorothy coldly, “The day you announced your engagement, was their divorce final?”

Of course, it wasn’t. Dorothy knew that better than anyone.

She was secretly grinding her teeth, but her face was playing it cool, all innocent-like. “They hadn’t finalized their divorce then, true, but if Bryant was willing to divorce for me, doesn’t it mean he loves me more than...”

“Enough!” Ramona’s voice thundered, a flush of anger crossing her face, “Who raised you to be so shameless? If you dare repeat that outside, you’re no longer a Myers!”

Dorothy was stunned. Then, her gaze landed on me angrily. “Jane, did you say something to Grandma? Making her think even her granddaughter...”

Ramona frowned. “What does this have to do with Jane? Don’t direct your misplaced anger at my esteemed guest.”

“Esteemed guest?” Spoiled by Susan, Dorothy couldn’t hold back her temper even before Ramona. “What kind of guest is she? Don’t you know her ex...” She stopped herself mid-sentence.

It dawned on her that I hadn’t said anything to Ramona.

Ramona probably just knew about Dorothy’s engagement with Bryant and had looked into it. But she hadn’t delved into my past with Bryant, so she didn’t know about our relationship.

“I...” Dorothy swallowed her words, muttering, “Anyway, you always take Gregory’s side over mine!”

Bryant’s eyelashes fluttered, hiding whatever emotion he felt before looking up and speaking slowly, “Ramona, don’t be mad at Dorothy. I hadn’t acted appropriately.”

I suddenly glared at him, thinking it was a sweet scene. If only I weren’t here, it would be even more so.

Ramona’s anger ebbed slightly. “At least you’re taking some responsibility.”

Then, her tone shifted dramatically, “But even at your best, you’re still not good enough to be the Myers family’s son-in-law!”

Unapologetically blunt.

After all, no one dared to cross Bryant in RiverCity. But here was Vista Town, dominated by the three great families. The vast Ferguson family, solely reliant on Bryant, had no support there.
