Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon novel Chapter 360

Adeline’s eyes darkened, her glare sharp enough to kill.

She let out a cold, contemptuous huff. “She’s just like her good-for-nothing mother—can’t keep herself in line for a second! That woman—if anything happens to my precious grandson, I swear I won’t let her off the hook!”

At first, Adeline had assumed Suzan came from decent stock, being the daughter of the Bagnold family. But after spending some time around her, she realized Suzan was little more than a pretty face with nothing between her ears.

Later, after digging around, Adeline finally learned the truth about Suzan’s background.

She was even worse than Effie!

If she’d known from the start, she would never have let Suzan and Mitchell get involved. But it was too late now.

So, for the time being, Adeline could only grit her teeth and bear it.

She’d wait until Suzan gave birth, and then she’d make sure Suzan paid for everything.

Just then, Vera and Shepard Bagnold arrived, only to catch the tail end of Adeline’s venomous tirade.

Vera’s face flushed red, then drained pale, her expression shifting between embarrassment and fury.

Shepard shot Vera a hard look. “What’s going on here?”

Vera bit her lip, not wanting to answer.

Under Shepard’s stern gaze, Vera finally caved and told him everything.

By the time she finished, Shepard was so angry he looked like he might explode.

“You think your daughter is some streetwalker? Teaching her—” Shepard broke off, shaking with rage. “You’re going to be the death of me! The Bagnold family’s reputation is in ruins thanks to the two of you!”
