"Gracie, remember this. You shouldn't doubt yourself just because of one failed relationship. In my opinion, you're worthy of the best."Grace's heart warmed at his words. "I know, Aaron. It's so good to have all of you."Aaron reached out and ruffled her hair. "What's with you being so formal? In matters of the heart, it's how you feel that counts. But you also have to face your own heart. Don't miss the person who truly loves you."Grace nodded, but she felt that Aaron was being unusually talkative today. "Aaron, when did you become such a gossip?""Have I? I'm just showing concern for you. After all, we can't be careless with matters that concern your lifelong happiness. Since I've been deceived once, I should learn my lesson. "You can't fall down in the same place twice. As long as that person isn't Benjamin, no matter who you end up with, our entire family will support you."Aaron's words made his stance clear. It was also what the rest of their family thought. Grace murm
If things continued to progress at this rate, there was a high chance that Grace would win the bet. But Samuel wouldn't admit defeat until the final moment. "What are you so anxious about? Isn't there still about half a year left? Getting a project done is difficult, but destroying a project is easy."Samuel's gaze darkened. He seemed to have resolved to burn all his bridges. He had been in the business world for a long time, and he wasn't about to lose to a young woman who had just started out. "We have to find a way to get rid of that Timothy fellow.""Director Walker, I have an idea about that."Samuel raised his eyebrows, looking pleasantly surprised. "Tell me what your idea is."Zane leaned close to his ear and said something in a low voice. Samuel was all smiles as he said, "It looks like you've learned a lot through all your years with me. Let's do it as you've planned.""Yes, Director Walker."…That night, Grace had arranged a celebratory party for Timothy at the Ph
"Go and get the phone of the woman called Grace …"As soon as the order was given, a few young gangsters surged forward and smashed the car's windows with hammers. With a bang, the car windows shattered into pieces, showering Grace with shards of glass. With a piercing sound, the car's alarm system began to wail. "You're Grace! Give me your phone."The gangsters stuck their heads in through the window pane to grab Grace's phone out of her hand. Grace leaned sideways to dodge them and kicked the man's head accurately and firmly. Immediately, blood began spurting from his nose. "What are you trying to do in broad daylight?"The man was in pain as he covered his face. "You bitch! Watch me kick your ass."He moved forward as soon as he finished speaking. But before he could, a few sleek black cars rushed up behind him. As the cars' brakes squealed to a stop, the young gangsters were immediately surrounded by well-trained bodyguards. They were like a heavenly army that had a
At Hawkins Manor, Geraldine was pacing back and forth with her phone in hand, looking a little anxious. There were drops of sweat on her nose. The clock on the wall was already pointing to 11:00 pm, but there was still no news from that bunch of young gangsters. Geraldine had completely lost patience and was about to change her shoes to go out. At that moment, she heard the sound of motorcycles from outside. Looking pleased, she hurriedly opened the door. "Tiger, how did things go?"Tiger was the lead gangster. He took off his helmet and looked expressionlessly at Geraldine before saying, "I'm sorry, Ms. Geraldine."Geraldine was lost for a moment and asked quickly, "Why are you apologizing? Didn't it go well? That's impossible! There's so many of you, and you couldn't deal with a single, frail woman?"Tiger was lost for words. "Ms. Geraldine, are you sure that you didn't get the wrong information?""What do you mean by that?""I'm sorry, Ms. Geraldine. I'll return the 200
"Geraldine isn't young anymore. How could she be so careless? I think this will be a good lesson for her.""Mom, Geraldine is my only daughter! If she goes to jail, how will I live?"Elizabeth wasn't moved by that. "She's already an adult and has to face the consequences of her actions."Titus hadn't expected that Elizabeth would be so stubborn. "Mom, if anything happens to Geraldine, then I won't live either. If you want to lose a son at your old age, then that's your choice."After tossing these words at her, Titus stormed out angrily.Elizabeth in resignation. In the end, she had no choice but to look for Benjamin. "Benjamin, could you talk to Grace about this? She has a soft heart. Perhaps you could discuss if there's any way to settle this?"Benjamin had already changed into a new suit. His expression was cold as he looked straight ahead. "Grandma, let's hand this matter over to the legal department and let them handle it."He couldn't bring himself to go to Grace and ask
But Yvonne wasn't worth that much money!"Three months. I only need to bail her out for three months. Ask if the bail can be halved. If they agree, send the money immediately!""Yes, Mr. Hawkins."…At Amirate Corporation, Grace was having an international meeting. Once the meeting was over, Luke knocked on her office door. "Ms. Lewis, a representative from Hawkins Group's legal department is here. They want to speak to you about Geraldine stealing company secrets."Grace instructed, "Let our lawyers handle this. Just report the result to me.""Yes, Ms. Lewis."Luke left and turned to see Samuel at the door. Luke's face was expressionless as he greeted Samuel politely, "Director Walker."Samuel smiled and said, "Mr. Ziegler, you're an old face that's been by Mr. Lewis' side for years. You don't need to be so formal with me."Luke inclined his head slightly. "Is there anything I can help you with, Director Walker?"Samuel looked at the closed office door. "I'm here to see Ms
Although Grace's reaction was unexpected, Samuel didn't think much of it. He just thought that she was flustered by the turn of events and hadn't had time to fully process it.Hence, he said, "The disciplinary inspection department will find out whether he's been wrongly accused or not. They're currently at the company right now. Would you like to go and have a look, Ms. Lewis?"Grace looked meaningfully at him, then got up and walked out. In Timothy's office, a bunch of people in uniform were currently collecting all kinds of evidence. Timothy was sitting on the couch with his legs crossed, looking completely unperturbed. "Have you finished checking? If you have, can you stop interrupting my work?" Timothy said flippantly. The people in uniform ignored him and continued to look through his things. Timothy snorted coldly, his gaze gradually becoming icy. When Grace walked in and saw the scene, she looked extremely displeased. "What are you doing?"The man in uniform who wa
When Samuel saw Grace and Timothy working seamlessly together, he huffed coldly inwardly. Then he looked meaningfully at Mr. Turner, who was standing in the distance. Mr. Turner understood at once and walked over to Timothy. "Mr. Donegan, we want to check your cash cards. Please cooperate."Timothy huffed coldly and took out his wallet from his pocket. Then, he took out the cards inside and placed them on the table, one by one. His movements carried a hint of scorn, but the cards he took out left all the onlookers flabbergasted. There were several limited-edition black cards from the top five banks in the country, and there was even a gold card from UBS!Mr. Turner was shocked. "These … these are your bank cards?"Timothy huffed coldly. "Didn't you want to check? Check them then! But I think that any of the cards here would have a limit over a few million dollars."Mr. Turner wiped the sweat off his forehead and said weakly, "Are all your cards real? They aren't fake, are
