Chapter 101: Brutal Demand
Grace and Duncan’s lawyer, Randolf Evans, agreed to meet at Grace’s law firm to negotiate the terms of the divorce. Cammy arrived early, accompanied by Greg, her steps deliberate but her hands clenched at her sides.
Grace greeted her with a smirk, her confidence unwavering. "Are you ready to fight back and make your voice heard, Cammy?"
Cammy nodded, but the stiffness in her posture and the forced curve of her lips betrayed her nerves.
Sensing her unease, Greg gently took hold of her arms, giving them a reassuring squeeze. "Relax," he murmured. "You and Grace have gone over this a dozen times. You know what to say. You can do this. Think about your future. Think about Dylan."
Cammy inhaled deeply, exhaling slowly as she shook out her hands, forcing the tension from her body. Her expression hardened with resolve. "I can do this. No, I will do this. For Dylan. For myself."
"In case that bastard loses control again, just scream, and I’ll be there in seconds," Greg muttered, he sounded on the edge with a quiet but deadly promise.
Grace chuckled at his intensity. "Relax, bodyguard. After Duncan’s little display yesterday, I’ve arranged for two security personnel to be inside the meeting room as a precaution. Randolf was informed and had no choice but to agree." She flashed a confident smile before turning to Cammy. "Let’s go."
With a deep breath, Cammy nodded and followed Grace into the room where Duncan and Attorney Evans were already waiting.
Greg remained outside, lowering himself into one of the chairs lining the hallway. He pulled out his phone and quickly fired off a message to Harry.
