In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 140 Reluctant Apology
Wendy couldn't help but think that Grace had strong tactics to have managed to gain Xander's support so quickly. It was no wonder that her cousin, Yvonne, had mentioned Grace's interference in her relationship with Benjamin.She thought, "Yvonne was right. This woman isn't easy to deal with."With these thoughts in mind, she reluctantly humbled herself and quickly offered an apology. "I'm sorry, Mr. Fulton. I shouldn't have said that. Please forgive me."However, Xander replied, "I'm not the one you should apologize to, Ms. Gardner."Wendy was flabbergasted, for she couldn't bring herself to apologize to Grace.In her eyes, it was Grace's fault that the Quines had gone bankrupt and Yvonne had been imprisoned. She had come here today to teach Grace a lesson."Mr. Fulton, I …"Xander stared at her and rhythmically tapped the table with his fingers. The atmosphere in the room became tense. His patience had its limits. Seeing Wendy's hesitation to apologize, he stood up and adju

She delivered the presentation proficiently, showing her professionalism.After her presentation, she closed her file and smiled at everyone."So, these are my thoughts. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask, and we can discuss them together."As Wendy spoke, she swept her gaze across the room, finally resting it on Grace."Ms. Lewis, as Amirate's president, you must have valuable insights to offer regarding our proposal. Why don't you share your thoughts with us?"Wendy directly shifted the conversation to Grace, and as soon as she spoke, everyone's attention turned toward Grace.Of course, Grace noticed the disdain in Wendy's eyes, but she just frowned and made no immediate m

There was an air of disbelief as they exchanged glances."What are you talking about, Ms. Lewis?" Wendy was the first to speak up, and her voice was tinged with a subtle anger.She had meticulously reviewed her presentation slides, ensuring that the content was based on her research and was error-free.Wendy couldn't believe that Grace, who didn't understand anything, dared to claim there were issues with her work."Ms. Lewis, I invited you to provide some input as Amirate's president. I didn't expect you to be an amateur. You don't know anything, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly!"Wendy was blunt. When it came to work, she considered herself a professional, much more competent than Grace.So s

In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 144 Failed Cooperation
Alvin caught up with them at the elevator."Mr. Fulton, Nexa Group has made extensive preparations for this project and invested a substantial amount of money. "If Amirate doesn't cooperate with us now, it will be a fatal blow for us. I hope you can give us another chance, Mr. Fulton."However, Xander and Grace remained silent.As the elevator gradually approached their floor, Alvin was running out of ways to persuade them. "Mr. Fulton, Ms. Lewis, I hope we can still have an opportunity to collaborate. I apologize for the unexpected events today, but cooperation requires some adjustment."The moment the elevator doors opened, Grace and Xander entered it."You can go back now, Mr. Leroy."Alvin's heart sank, and he could only watch as the elevator doors closed.Just then, Benjamin approached Alvin with Larry.

"But I was well prepared, thanks to you. You shared the nanotechnology information with me beforehand. Otherwise, I might have been humiliated by Wendy during the meeting."Xander, are we still going to collaborate with Nexa on this project?"Hearing that, Xander reached out and ruffled her hair. His eyes were full of tenderness, as if he were looking at a precious treasure. "What do you think?""Well, business is business. We should keep it separate from personal grudges."Xander hummed in agreement and continued, "Okay. We'll need to see Nexa's sincerity. But Gracie, can I discuss something with you?"As Grace looked at him, her eyes were extremely innocent, making his heart skip a beat.Some things needed to be said."Can you change the way you address me from now on?"Grace froze for a moment, followed by a confused expression.Before she could respond, Xander continued, "Just call me Xan from now on. Everyone calls me Xander. It's not special at all.""Xan?" A hint of su
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 146 Disappointed Samuel
"Women will never tolerate a third person in a relationship, and Ms. Lewis is no exception."However, that was in the past. The Grace who had had eyes only for Benjamin, indeed couldn't tolerate such things. But now, everything seemed to have changed.Benjamin took a deep breath, and all his despair disappeared in an instant. It was as though the somewhat dejected Benjamin from just now had just been an illusion."Let's go, Larry." With that, Benjamin walked away.…Right after Grace returned to her office in Amirate, an unexpected guest arrived.Samuel had received first-hand information that the collaboration between Amirate and Nexa Group had soured.Delighted, he couldn't resist dropping by Grace's office to watch the fun."Ms. Lewis!
