Rebirth: Married My Ex-Husband's Enemy

Chapter 9 Trending News, Kelvin Being Humiliated

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Lucia had just gotten up and sat on the toilet when she received a call from Melanie.

The other end of the line was excited, "Lucia, did you read today's news?"

"..." She was about to read.

"Yours Kelvin, and yours  Alonso, are both on the trending list!"

"Who said that Kelvin belongs to me?" Lucia said grumpily.

"What you mean is 'Alonso' is yours?" The other side joked.

"Melanie!" Lucia was speechless.

Melanie laughed exaggeratedly. "Anyway, you can read the news. I think... it's impressive."

After that, she hung up the phone.

Lucia knew what the media was writing even without reading it.

It was probably an evaluation of Alonso and Kelvin!

Sure enough.

Lucia looked at the trending search lists on the major websites.

The charity party donated hundreds of millions, and Alonso spent a lot to suppress the crowd.

"Is it for love or not? Kelvin doesn't want to spend much money to marry Lucia."

Alonso's act of squandering money didn't change. Thirty million gems were given to her on the spot.

Alonso didn't become a hot topic for the first time because of his gossip. This time, he made official headlines such as finance, society, and so on, full of other praises.

It was also the first time Kelvin was mocked and belittled.

When Kelvin saw the news, he pulled a long face.

In the past, he had always been praised by the media. But this time, the press mentioned he was not as perfect as the rumors circulated. He was stingy in the charity auction and did not love Lucia enough. The media even pointed out the Calshaw family was faced with financial problems.

There was indeed the financial problem that he was eager to marry Lucia and thus had financial support from the Balstone family. He didn't expect that he almost ruined his big business at this critical moment because of Alonso, that black sheep.

What made him angrier was that when the stock market was opened, the Calshaw family's stock was down to the limit. The Calshaw family must invest significant funds to stabilize the stock market. This was undoubted to make the Calshaw family worse.

Kelvin was furious that his whole body was trembling, but he was telling himself to calm down!

The most important thing now was to marry Lucia.

The Balstone family was the second largest family in Bernille, and the Callen family was the first. If he controlled the Balstone family, with the financial resources of the Balstone family and the Calshaw family, he could directly suppress the Callen family.

Of course, once he controlled the Balstone family, he would qualify enough to up the level of the Calshaw family to a noble family.

Thinking of this, the corners of Kelvin's mouth pulled out a sinister smile.

He would then definitely pay back the humiliation he had suffered today!

......

The Balstone family.

Lucia read the trending news and found it rather interesting.

Melanie called again. "Have you seen it?"

"Yes," Lucia replied. "By the way, why are you so excited?"

"I'm so excited for you!" Melanie said matter-of-factly, "I used to think that you were insane to fancy the super jerk, Alonso. But now I suddenly feel that you have sharp eyes."

She didn't even know if Melanie was praising her.

She said, "Alonso and I are not what you think."

" Then what's that?" Melanie asked with great interest.

"You'll know in the future."

"You're beginning to hide things from me? Lucia Balstone, you've changed!" Melanie complained.

That's right.

She had changed.

She would seek revenge for the grievance!

"By the way." Melanie suddenly thought of something. "Ambrose is back."

"Really?" Lucia replied.

She remembered sometime these few days.

She didn't know the date exactly.

"Last night, he came back quietly, which scared me. The key is..." Melanie held back her anger and didn't say it.

On the contrary, Lucia was a little interested.

"Anyway, he must have bad intentions when he comes back. He must be here to steal my family's property!" Melanie Cais said firmly, "I won't let him succeed."

Lucia really wanted to tell her.

It wasn't her stepbrother who wanted to steal the family property from her. It was... someone she had always been longing for.

But she felt that she needed time to convince Melanie.

"Since you don't want Ambrose to steal your family property, why don't you go to work and control the company in your own hands?"

"Er..." Melanie didn't answer.

Apparently, she was very playful and didn't want to go to work.

She stammered, "Trenton Gloig can help me support our family!"

Melanie was the same as her.

She was as innocent as her.

She said, "Anyway, you should think about my suggestion. I won't say it anymore. My grandma called me."

A call came in.

"What good news can your grandma have for you?" Melanie said grumpily.

It was indeed not a good thing.

That was why she needed time to deal with these people!

Lucia hung up Melanie's phone and answered her grandma Ayla Blake's call.

"Grandma..."

"Who are you talking to on the phone just now? You haven't answered my call for a long time! Not respected at all!" The tone on the other end of the line was not very good.

Lucia held her phone and endured it for a while.

Her grandmother never liked her because she valued men more than women. She always doted on her eldest grandson, Jimmy Balstone. Over the years, she had tolerated her grandmother, just like her father.

But she was reborn.

She didn't want to be so aggrieved in this life.

She said, "Grandma, what can I do for you?"

"Come back to the old house!" After that, she suddenly hung up the phone.

Lucia was annoyed.

She felt that it was time to teach her grandmother a lesson!

Otherwise, she would have thought she was powerful enough to rule the world.

She put down her phone, washed quickly, and then went downstairs to go out.

"Lucia, where are you going to, and you haven't had breakfast?" Reagan quickly stopped her daughter.

"To Grandma's house."

"What are you doing there?" Reagan was obviously a little surprised.

She was indeed scared of her mother-in-law from the bottom of her heart.

Since she married into the Balstone family, she had never been kindly treated by her mother-in-law. The reason was that Reagan was from an inferior family, and Ayla did not like her. Fortunately, Lucia's grandfather liked Reagan very much, so he agreed to their marriage.

After getting married, Reagan avoided Ayla as much as she could.

Now that she heard her daughter wanted to see her grandma, she was naturally worried about it.

"Grandma said that she has something to say to me."

"What's the matter?"

"She didn't say it."

Reagan didn't dare to resist Ayla for so many years, so she naturally didn't dare to stop Lucia from going. She thought for a while and said, "I'll go with you."

"Are you worried grandma will bully me?

"When did she stop bullying you?" Reagan said grumpily.

"You won't be able to help even if you go," Lucia said mercilessly.

She understood her mother didn't want to cause too much family conflict and would never go against her grandmother.

"At least I won't let your grandma scold you alone." This was the best protection for her.

Lucia smiled.

Her mother was really kind.

She said, "Let's go."

"Let's go. I'll show you how to deal with your unreasonable mother-in-law!"
