THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 303

Ann fired off three questions in a row, worried her mother might have misheard.

This was the Sylvester family they were talking about!

The most powerful household in all of Eldermere.

And Master Ninth—he was a legend in the business world, a force of nature, someone so dazzlingly out of reach that even before thirty, he had already performed miracles in the corporate arena.

Ann never even dared to dream about someone like him.

But now.

The Sylvester family was actually moving to the Capital.

And Beatrice herself was coming to the city to choose the future matriarch of the Sylvester family. For Ann, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The perfect chance.

She was beautiful, intelligent, and capable—surely the ideal candidate in Beatrice’s eyes.

“Everyone’s saying it, so I think it must be true. After all, rumors don’t just come out of nowhere,” Amanda narrowed her eyes thoughtfully. “Ann, you need to be ready. Once the Sylvesters arrive, they’re bound to make some big moves.”

“I understand, Mom.” Ann nodded.

She glanced at Daniel.

Daniel was impressive in his own right.

But compared to Master Ninth, he was still a little too young, a little too green.

What a pity.

He’d have to settle for being her backup plan.

A devoted guy like Daniel would probably stay single for her, pining away his whole life.

That was fine by her.

Men would do anything for the women they adored.

When the time came, she’d treat Daniel as a stepping stone.

And not just any stepping stone—a first-class one.

The thought of a boy so many other girls yearned for, reduced to trailing after her and becoming just another rung on her ladder, filled Ann with a smug satisfaction. The corners of her lips curled into a triumphant smile.

Meanwhile, Keira was still introducing Caitlin around the party.

Caitlin didn’t seem to mind, following Keira closely from one group to the next.

“Keira, Miss Gonzales.”
