Chapter 289 I Won’t Embarrass You Anymore
At Xander Residence.
Daniella spotted Grayson on the sofa, his face clouded with glum, while Neil occupied the other one.
She looked at Neil and speculated Grayson was probably scolding him.
Slowly, she descended the stairs.
At the sound of her footsteps, Grayson spun around and bellowed, “Come down here, quickly!”
Astonished, Daniella asked, “Are you addressing me, Grandpa?”
“Who else would we be waiting for?” Grayson’s voice thundered.
As she approached Grayson, her heart raced. She questioned him softly, “What’s the matter,
Grandpa?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrayson hurled a stack of photos toward Daniella.
The images scattered, revealing distressing scenes–all of them related to her.
Daniella went numb, her body trembling uncontrollably.
“How do you plan to explain this? Your company just started, yet your employees know about your
scandalous past!” Grayson’s voice was harsh.
As Grayson berated her, Daniella began to piece things together as she glanced briefly at the photos.
She then fixed a fierce gaze on Neil. “Was it you? Did you inform Grandpa about this?”
Grayson’s response was swift, his cane swishing toward Daniella’s back as he barked, “Nonsense!”
Daniella cried out in pain.
.Neil replied casually, “Grandpa was already aware. I didn’t inform him.”
Daniella frowned in pain but was too scared to touch her back. She looked away from Neil and told
Grayson, “Why won’t you listen to my side of the story, Grandpa?*
“I didn’t hand over the company for you to shame our family!” Grayson’s tone was scornful.
Daniella sneered. “Do you think this is what I wanted? Everyone has a questionable past! Was
surviving that wrong?”
“You’re not disabled, yet you resorted to selling yourself,” Neil remarked.
Daniella’s face stiffened. She had intended to remind Grayson of her tough life, but Neil’s words
caught her off guard.

Grayson’s expression soured. “My birthday party is just two weeks away, and you’re turning me into a
laughingstock!”
“Even if I made mistakes before, someone’s intentionally trying to expose me!” Daniella argued.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGrayson glared at her. “Someone’s out to get you? Would they even have a chance if you weren’t
involved in disgraceful activities?”
“Grandpa, I’ve taken steps against the culprit. Just trust me one more time, please. I’ll run the company
well and won’t bring you any more shame.” Daniella’s tears flowed freely.
“It’s too late. A lot of people know what happened with Clara yesterday, and I believe the police will be
here soon,‘ Neil revealed.
Daniella was stunned. “What do you mean?”
Neil explained grimly, “Clara suffered fatal abuse. Do you want the gruesome details?”
Daniella panicked. She hadn’t expected her bodyguards to be so ruthless. ‘Clara’s dead? I don’t think I
told them to kill her.‘
Terrified, Daniella dropped to her knees and pleaded with Grayson, “Please, Grandpa, save me. I
didn’t mean for Clara to die!”
