Sherry had seen many things, so even though Xander didn't give her the time of day, she remained unfazed."I understand, Mr. Fulton. You must have met a lot of people and forgotten about me. I'm Sherry Clark. We actually met at Futurelink Corporation's grand opening reception."Xander listened, but he still showed no sign of remembering her. "Oh, I'm sorry. I don't recall."He was straightforward, and his response almost bordered on rejection. Hearing that, Sherry smiled awkwardly.Meanwhile, Grace couldn't help but find the situation amusing.

"This young lady has bid three million dollars!"Without hesitation, Grace raised her paddle again. "Five million dollars.""Wow! Am I hearing correctly? A watch being sold for this much is outrageous!""Even if she's rich, she shouldn't waste it like this.""What do you know?

Ignoring Sherry, Grace took out her card.But as she was about to hand it over to the staff, Xander took a step ahead and said, "Use this one."Grace quickly refused. "No, Xan. Just use mine."Yet he smiled and replied, "You don't need to be so polite with me. Consider this dress a gift from me, wishing for your career to flourish and for your fashion show to be a massive success.""What?"

Benjamin struggled to restrain his emotions.Yet he maintained a calm facade and changed the topic. "This bodycon dress is nice."Grace sensed his interest in the dress and asked, "Are you interested in this dress too, Mr. Hawkins?"Benjamin didn't explain much. He simply said, "Everyone likes nice things, don't they?"Hearing that, Grace noticed that he seemed to be implying something but didn't dwell on it. "Well, thank you for giving up, Mr. Hawkins." With that said, she turned to leave.Benjamin didn't say anything else and just watched her walk away.The next moment, Sherry, who was standing nearby, shamelessly approached him. "Mr. Hawkins, can you lend me three million dollars?"When Benjamin turned around and saw her eager face, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes. "I've never had the habit of lending money to others."Sherry was embarrassed to receive such a clear refusal. But now, she had no way to get ten million dollars.

Benjamin will also attend tomorrow's fashion show and give the opening speech."Grace was surprised. "When did Hawkins Group start doing charity?"Emily bluntly pointed out, "It's definitely because of Celia's incident last time. It had a certain impact on Hawkins Group's reputation. They must be doing all of this to restore their image."Grace just acknowledged it with an "oh" and didn't take it seriously. As the chief designer, her task was to ensure that all the outfits were smoothly showcased in the fashion show."Babe, do you think Benjamin intentionally joined this event because he knows you're the chief designer?"Although Emily didn't know it, she had hit the nail on the head.

"Don't mention her."However, Grace smiled. "What's wrong, Mr. Hawkins? Did your first love turn into a nightmare?"Benjamin suppressed the anger within him.
