Shirley Thorne felt incredibly guilty about faking a pregnancy to deceive the old man, but that top billionaire was impossible to reason with!
She had protested at the time.
"No way, Mr. Grant. I don't want to lie to Grandfather. I'll give it away!"
Grandfather was so eager for grandchildren that Shirley Thorne just couldn't lie with a clear conscience. Just thinking about that scenario made her feel like she was committing a grave sin.
"I'll explain it to Grandfather afterward. I'm sorry."
Ethan Grant's attitude was polite, but he was resolute.
He had already made a ruthless move this time. He was determined to catch the person behind the scenes, and even if he couldn't, he would at least sever another one of their branches.
His intuition told him that he would definitely find an important clue this time.
Shirley Thorne wanted to cry but had no tears, so she had no choice but to compromise for the time being.
"If my cover gets blown, don't blame me!"
