In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 160 Not Worthy of Him
"Those who can stand toe to toe with him are undoubtedly individuals of equal excellence," Linda continued.Grace understood the underlying message in her words.However, she hadn't expected such words to come from an assistant. "Ms. Snow, you're certainly diligent in your work, even showing concern for the boss's personal life. "But I must remind you that your involvement seems a bit too extensive," Grace responded.Linda hadn't anticipated Grace's straightforwardness. Therefore, she had no reason to hide anything. "Ms. Lewis, I'm considering Mr. Fulton's best interests as well. After all, if you and Mr. Fulton were to become a couple, the rumors and gossip wouldn't be pleasant. "Perhaps you wouldn't mind, but what about Mr. Fulton? Do you think he wouldn't mind?" Linda asked.Just as she finished speaking, Xander returned with the pastries.He opened the door and immediately sensed the tension in the car. He looked concernedly at Grace and asked, "What's wrong?"Linda's w
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 161 Aunt Hestia's Power
In just a moment, Hestia had made up her mind.However, Linda had no idea what the older woman was thinking. She hurriedly replied, "Mr. Fulton asked me to drive them here."Hestia merely responded with an "oh" and cast a resentful look in Xander's direction. Xander scratched his nose, not understanding why Hestia was looking at him like that. Without further delay, Hestia immediately drove Linda away. "If that's the case, Linda, your task is considered complete. "Since my goddaughter is here today, I won't keep you around for dinner. We'll set up another time for you to visit our home as a guest."Upon hearing that, Linda's expression changed subtly, but she quickly regained her composure. "Sure, Madam Fulton. In that case, I'll head back now."Then, she turned toward Xander. "Mr. Fulton, I'll take my leave then."Xander simply nodded in response.Linda clenched her fists tightly. She was reluctant to leave, but she couldn't find a valid reason to stay right now.After s
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 162 A Lingering Sense of Unease
Xander understood what Hestia's look meant, but he couldn't shake the feeling that Grace was somewhat distant toward him. It seemed like the path ahead was going to be long and challenging."Oh, by the way, Gracie, I know you're interested in design. Professor Alan Morris from the School of Design at Pamore University is an old classmate of mine. "In a couple of days, he'll be hosting a design exhibition in Pamore. I have an invitation for it. You and Xander can go on my behalf," Hestia offered.A faint, playful smile appeared at the corner of Grace's lips. Her interest was piqued."Sounds good! It's a great opportunity to learn something new," she responded.Hestia's heart leaped with joy as she glanced at Xander, who realized that she was creating an opportunity for him and Grace to spend time together."Sure, let's go together," Xander added.Hestia nodded in satisfaction. "Good. I can rest with both of you going together. But, young man, remember to take good care of Grac
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 163 The Hawkins Family's Decline
However, Susan still didn't think Grace's presence there mattered. "Alright, don't overthink it. Remember what I told you—just make a good impression on Professor Morris."Meanwhile, Grace had arrived at the exhibition with Xander.The two made a striking pair with their good looks and drew the attention of many.While most people didn't know much about Xander, they had heard quite a bit about Grace through rumors."Ms. Lewis is now divorced, but she seems to be living a luxurious life, and her male companion doesn't look too shabby. He's much better than Mr. Hawkins.""You're right! This man doesn't seem to belong to our circle. Who is this gentleman?""Do you know Futurelink Corporation? That rising conglomerate? That man is the CEO of that company!"The crowd gasped in surprise."No wonder he's with Ms. Lewis. They make a perfect couple!""Indeed, Ms. Lewis is such a fortunate woman! She has a great background, looks beautiful, and is successful. She's done wonders for Amir
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 164 Astonishing Artwork
"I just took a walk around, and I couldn't find your work. Are you sure you handed it over to Professor Morris?" Susan asked.Celia quickly snapped back to reality. "I submitted it. Maybe it's on the other side. Let me take you there."With that, the two of them headed to the other side of the design exhibition.Meanwhile, Grace remained composed as she was surrounded by people.After a round of interactions, she greeted everyone and then found a couch where she could sit and rest. Xander brought her a glass of champagne and handed it to her. "How's it going? Are you tired?"Grace shook her head. "Not at all."Xander continued, "I just took a look around. There are relatively few design works by Professor Morris himself at today's exhibition. The rest of them are his students' works. "I heard that Professor Morris is planning to retire and is looking to take on a successor, so he's using this opportunity to assess the students' abilities."Grace nodded. "I see. Let's go and
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 165 She Didn't Design This
"Ms. Hawkins, there must be a unique design story behind such a remarkable design. Can you share it with us?" someone asked eagerly.Celia smiled gracefully and said confidently, "Actually, this artwork was inspired by a show I attended in France. "It conveyed the independence and intellectual beauty of women. That's why I chose bold color combinations to highlight the essence of femininity. "The details in the cuffs and collars are also meticulously designed. You can see the thought put into the overall concept …"Once Celia finished explaining, those around her couldn't help but offer their appreciation for her work."Wow, Ms. Hawkins, you really have a unique understanding of design. It's no wonder you've produced such an excellent piece. "I'm interested to know if you're currently considering a partnership with a design studio. A designer as exceptional as you would be a valuable addition to our studio."Our company specializes in fashion too. A talented designer like you
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 166 Where's the Proof
As Susan spoke, she nudged Celia with a grin.Celia seized the opportunity to speak. "I plan to apply for your graduate program in my senior year and hope for a chance to study design with you." Alan nodded in understanding and encouraged her. "Keep up the good work."After that, he left under the watchful eyes of the crowd.Susan's heart filled with excitement when she heard Alan's response. She grabbed Celia and exclaimed, "Celia, it's looking very promising! You need to keep pushing forward. Don't let me down!"Celia couldn't hide her delight and responded, "Don't worry, Mom! I've got what it takes." Joining Alan's graduate program was well within her reach.However, the next moment, Grace approached her with a grim expression. For some reason, Celia felt an urge to avoid her."Let's talk!" Grace said, her words carrying an unspoken weight.Celia tried to ignore Grace. As she was about to leave, Grace reached out and firmly grasped her wrist. "What's the matter? Feeling
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 167 We Can Never Be Friends
However, it was clear that Celia didn't particularly appreciate Grace's gesture."Celia, I'm going to give you one more chance. Withdraw this artwork from the exhibition by yourself, or else you'll regret it," Grace warned.Celia remained unfazed and ignored Grace's warning. "Do as you please," she confidently replied, before walking away with her head held high.As she pushed open the glass door, she bumped into Frederick. "Frederick, what are you doing here?"Instead of answering her question, Frederick asked casually, "When did you and Grace become such good friends?"Celia sneered, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who would possibly be friends with her? She's the heiress of the Lewis family now. I can't possibly reach her level."Her words were dripping with sarcasm and underlying tension."Ahhh," Frederick said in understanding and chose not to delve further into the matter.Celia didn't pay any more attention to him and haughtily walked away with her nose in the ai
