After Swapping Marriage with My Sister, I Married the CEO
Chapter 9
Exiting the courtroom, I casually mentioned to Leonard that I was thirsty and asked him to buy me a drink, then I bowed deeply to Grace.
"Grace, I deeply appreciate your trust in me. I'm grateful you believed the story I told you earlier. However, I don't think Leonard and I are meant to be married yet."
To be honest, I didn't care because Leonard had been injured before.
Secretly, I struggled with the temptation of inheriting Grace's vast fortune.
"But the foundation of marriage must be love. I firmly believe in that. So Leonard and me... should follow our separate paths in life."
"Elaine."
The moment I turned around, Grace suddenly called me.
When I faced her again, tears welled in her red eyes.
"Elaine, have you ever wondered why I believed your story?
Why I was willing to help you send Ivy to jail?
Why did the two million dollars in her possession easily fall into Evan's hands?"
My mind raced, unsure how to respond to Grace's emotional query.
"You're right, Elaine. Ivy is inherently wicked. No matter what choices she makes, she'll face consequences. And I'll ensure she pays for them. Because she's her, and you're you."
