“My damn grandson was planning divorce Chloe behind my back! If I hadn’t caught wind of it, he would’ve gone through

With that thought, Admas grabbed Michael and yanked him out of his seat.
“Come home with me!”
Chloe stared at their divorce papers for what felt like an eternity before finally tearing her gaze away and getting up from the chair.
