Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 644

Chapter 644

This wasn’t like her at all.

It was not like the Tessa Grace knew.

Grace sighed.

No matter what, this was the child she had doted on since she was little.

How could she not feel a soft spot?

So, when she picked up the call, her tone was gentle. “What is it, sweetheart?”

But Tessa’s voice wavered with hesitation. “Mom, I heard… about Aurora.”

Grace’s heart skipped a beat, but she forced herself to stay composed. “Who told you that?”

She hadn’t mentioned anything to Tessa, so how had she found out?

And why bring it up now, acting so deliberately?

Something felt off.

Still, Grace held back her doubts and waited patiently for Tessa to continue.

But Tessa hesitated again. “Mom, never mind how I found out. The point is, I know something now.”

“What is it?”

Grace tensed at her tone, her nerves tightening with every pause.

She wasn’t young anymore.

Being dragged through this back and forth was wearing on her patience.

It felt like Tessa was doing it on purpose, dangling words without saying anything meaningful.

She’d always been calm, but even that calm had its limits.

“Tessa, if you have something to say, then say it already,” she said her voice turning sharp.

“Don’t beat around the bush. If you’re not willing to speak up, then forget it. I’ll look into it myself.”

Grace had once been a force to be reckoned with.

She might be older now, but she wasn’t someone who could be played.

Tessa’s little tricks? She’d seen them all before.

There was a time she’d gone toe to toe with much tougher players than this.

In front of Grace, Tessa had always been like a child–never truly threatening and difficult to manage.

But this constant hesitation and drawn–out indecisiveness were starting to wear thin.

And beyond that, Grace couldn’t think of much else.
