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
"Or was this a trap you devised? What's your goal? To get me kicked out of Amirate?"There was silence. Timothy's words were deliberate and left Samuel unable to retort. Samuel stammered, unable to say anything coherent. Timothy ignored him and looked at Grace. He asked, "What do you think, Ms. Lewis?"Grace looked coldly at Samuel and said calmly, "Mr. Donegan is the heir of the Donegan Enterprises in Frenda. Our families had once arranged a marriage between us as well. He had only joined Amirate out of passion. "Now we've all seen what Mr. Donegan is capable of and how he single-handedly obtained the Dunhill project. I believe that Mr. Donegan is owed an explanation for today's events."Grace swept a glance across the room and finally looked at Mr. Turner. The contempt in her eyes was evident. "Since you reported him, that means you have evidence, right?"Show us the evidence. If you can't, then you can be charged for falsely accusing someone. You can be jailed for that."
Grace and Timothy exchanged glances, both of them thinking the same thing. When Samuel saw this, he rushed out without hesitating. He grabbed Zane and pushed him in front of Grace. "You asshole, say it! Was it you? How could you frame Mr. Donegan for corruption and accepting bribes? You have some nerve!"Zane panicked. He crawled in front of Grace and begged for mercy. "Ms. Lewis, please have mercy on me! I lost my senses and made a mistake. I didn't do it on purpose!"Grace looked down at him, completely unmoved. Zane turned to beg Timothy, who was beside her. "Mr. Donegan, I beg you, please let me go … I will never do it again."Timothy squatted down slowly, his lips curving in a lethal smile. "It's not impossible to have mercy on you, but you must tell me who ordered you to do this."Zane looked up timidly at Samuel, who was standing beside them, and immediately looked down again. He took all the blame upon himself. "No one ordered me to do it. I was jealous of Mr.
For the first time, Timothy felt that being part of the Donegan family was a good thing."Our company is taking a certain amount of risk by taking on the Dunhill project alone, so I suggest finding a company whose capability is on par with ours to collaborate with. "That way, we can greatly minimize our risk coefficient."When speaking about work, there was no sign of flippancy on Timothy's face at all. He continued, "Among the leading corporations in Pamore, apart from Hawkins Group, Futurelink Corporation has the strongest finances. "If we join forces, it will definitely maximize the results."Grace looked surprised. "Are you talking about collaborating with Futurelink Corporation?"Timothy assented, "Futurelink Corporation is the best choice. Of course …"Timothy paused for a moment and looked up at Grace. "There is another choice, which is Hawkins Group.""Benjamin?" Grace blurted out, then shook her head gently. She immediately vetoed it and said, "We won't consider
"Mr. Ziegler, what's on the work schedule for today?"Luke was half a step behind Grace as he reported her schedule. "There's an international video conference at 10:00 am. At 2:00 pm, you have an appointment with Mr. Barnes to discuss the project, and tonight at 7:00 pm, there's Neo Group's chairman and his wife's anniversary party—""Okay, I've got it."As soon as she finished, Grace's phone rang from her pocket. "Hello, babe. Are you busy?"Emily's voice traveled from the other end of the line. "The client I told you about last time came to the boutique today. It's the one who spent three million dollars to design a dress."The client asked for you specifically. Do you think you would have some time to come over?"Grace pushed the door open to her office and walked in. "When?""I've already asked her. Any time before 12:00 pm will be fine.""Alright, I've got it."Emily hung up and took a cup of coffee over to the client. "Ms. Gold, please wait a moment. Our designer will
"Did you come out to cause trouble again?" Grace said scornfully.Yvonne's expression changed, but she suppressed her rage and smiled instead. "Do you know why I managed to get out?"Benjamin paid a huge amount of bail! Do you get it, Grace? There's only ever been one person in his heart, and that's me. You're just the ex-wife that he looked down on."When Grace heard this, she betrayed no emotion and crossed her arms expressionlessly. "Then stay together forever. Don't come out and hurt others.""You!" Yvonne gritted her teeth and glared venomously at Grace. "I'm telling you, Grace, I'll make you go through everything that I had to experience.""If you want to go back to prison and stay there, then go ahead and try!"Grace's voice was intimidating. It felt like a physical blow to Yvonne, who had just gotten out of prison. Yvonne shuddered. She never wanted to step foot in prison again. "Just you wait." Yvonne spat vehemently. But just as she had finished speaking, the wo
