Chapter 70 What a Coincidence
What a small world.
“I’m so happy you could come visit, Benjamin,” Yvonne’said gently. She tried to hold his hand, but he
subtly dodged her.
“I saw some of my business partners. I’m going over to talk to them,” Benjamin said in a cold voice as
he walked away.
Yvonne was very irked. It had been two months since she had been sent to Frenda, but Benjamin had
never called her, not even once.
Now that he was finally here, she had wanted to spend some quality time with him, even if it was just
for the sake of their baby.
After reluctantly watching Benjamin leave, she turned back. She was surprised to find Grace standing
right in front of her.
There was a middle–aged woman who looked pretty despite her age standing next to Grace. With a
smile, Yvonne tried to make her belly even more obvious and walked over as if Grace were the
mistress, not her.
“Why do I keep bumping into you everywhere I go?” Yvonne asked.
Grace didn’t even look at her. “That’s my line.”

came all this way just to bother him. You’re like a ghost that keeps haunting us.”
Hestia turned to Grace and asked, “Is she the mistress who ruined your marriage, Gracie?”
“Watch your mouth, old lady.”
Hestia had never been called an old lady before, and that made her want to laugh. “Do I look that old,
Gracie?”
As the founder of ME Group, a luxury makeup company, Hestia held all the secrets to aging gracefully
and used them to her advantage.
Usually, she looked young enough that people would call her “Ms. Riley“. Who knew that she would be
insulted like this today?
“You’re gorgeous, Aunt Hestia. She just has a potty mouth, that’s all,” Grace said coolly with a
nonchalant smile.
“To me, Benjamin is a piece of trash that even recycling centers would reject. I don’t know what you’re
worried about,” she added.

“Why, you!” Yvonne’s tone turned cold and hostile.
Grace, however, was still looking at the exhibition. “We’re in public, so I’ll cut you some slack. Leave
right away, and I just might spare you.”
“No. It’s not like your family owns this exhibition, anyway.” Yvonne chose violence over peace.
“What a coincidence. We do, in fact, own this exhibition.” Hestia stepped forward, looking at Yvonne
with narrowed eyes.
“You’re joking. This is a high–end photography exhibition for the elite, filled with Sunny’s works of art.
How can it be owned by two nobodies like you?”
Yvonne walked closer, disdain in her eyes. “I heard you were just an orphan in Pamore. It’s good
enough that you managed to become Benjamin’s secretary.
“But pretending to be someone important? Don’t make me laugh!” she said..
Yvonne had investigated Grace ages ago, and she knew the latter was just an orphan from the
countryside. Why was she even insisting that both her parents were alive?
Hestia was so angered by Yvonne’s words that all the warmth drained from her face. “Say that again. I
dare you.”
Grace grabbed Hestia’s arm. “Aunt Hestia, don’t let someone like her ruin your mood. Let’s go.
She didn’t want Hestia to ruin her reputation for grace and elegance because of Yvonne. After all, why

However, Hestia couldn’t let it slide. She could handle Yvonne calling her an old lady, but she refused
to let her call Grace an orphan.
Yvonne smiled shamelessly when she noticed the old lady was getting mad. you trying to stand up for
her now?

“She’s just a whore who briefly secured a rich man’s favor. A penniless aunt like you only got to travel
overseas because of that.
“Please, take some more pictures of the exhibition. You’ll be able to show them off when you get back
to your little village.”
Hestia couldn’t take it anymore. “Apologize!” she roared, several times louder than usual.
“Never!” Yvonne wasn’t afraid of her at all. “You uncivilized people raised a woman just as uncivilized
as you are!”
Hestia reached her breaking point. She grabbed Yvonne’s collar before slapping her quickly and
forcefully.
