In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 338 Obscure Business
The man in the room walked out too, and his eyes lit up when he saw Grace. "Wow, where did this exquisite specimen come from?"Someone among them recognized Grace and knew that she had come in with Timothy. He spoke to the man in a low voice. "Darien, this is a guest of Mr. Donegan."When Darien Perez heard that she was with Timothy, his expression darkened. He walked toward Grace. "What did you see just now? What did you hear?"Grace stared at him without any fear in her eyes. "You're operating a legitimate business, but I never thought that such obscure business would be going on too. All those women inside were kidnapped and brought here by you, weren't they?"Darien laughed. His eyes were cruel and ruthless. "It looks like you don't want to leave today … but perhaps that's for the best. A gorgeous woman like you is rare stock."As he spoke, he waved his hand, indicating for his subordinates to come forward. Grace laughed coldly. "You'll have to see if you'll be able to cat

"What should we do? We'll be sent away tomorrow morning. I might never see my family again.""I don't want to die! Someone, please, save us!"There was silence for a while before the sound of someone sobbing came.When Grace heard it, her gaze darkened and her heart wrenched. She had never imagined that there would still be such shady things happening in today's civilized society.Her gaze followed the sounds of the sobs.But the next moment, she locked eyes with a pair of extremely calm eyes. It made a stark contrast with the mournful atmosphere. The girl looked as if she were only 17 or 18 years old, but she had the calmness and intelligence of an adult. Her face was cold and expressionless, but her eyes were fixed on Grace, as if she wanted to see right through her. Neither of them spoke. They remained like that for half an hour. Then, the girl spoke, and there was a note of uncertainty in her tone. "Can you really get us out of here?"Grace said firmly, "Trust me. I

At these words, the women shuddered. They had obviously all tasted the strength of the whip before. Then, Darien, who was in the lead, walked out.He looked at Grace without any trace of warmth in his eyes. "I didn't think that you would be so skilled. You escaped in about ten minutes."Grace looked coldly at him, and her voice was frosty when she spoke. "Let us go, or I'll destroy this place."Darien reacted as if he had heard a funny joke and walked over to Grace, clapping his hands. He had to admit that Grace had striking features, and even in this environment, she looked exotically beautiful! A gorgeous specimen like her would fetch a good price if she got on the market. But although she was beautiful, she was a rose with thorns. "Let you go? In your dreams!"Then, he waved a hand, and a few bodyguards came forward.But just at this moment, a subordinate rushed over. "Darien, bad news! Our bar has been surrounded."Darien's expression became furious. "What is going on

However, Grace said, "Darien, let them go."Darien nodded. "Naturally. After you, Ms. Lewis."Grace was angry, and her tone became icier. "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"Darien's expression immediately became more serious. "Ms. Lewis, it's my fault for opposing you, but I spent a lot of money to buy these people. Think about what a loss it would be!"Grace didn't give him a chance at all. "Loss? It looks like you won't give up until the very end."Darien had no way to deal with Grace, but he was extremely reluctant to give up on the other women. "Ms. Lewis, we and the Lewis family have always refrained from meddling with each other. It seems inappropriate for you to do this."As an apology, I will let you choose one of them and take her away. That should show my sincerity."There was no way Grace would accept his offer. "I told you to let all of them go. This is the last chance."Darien wanted to speak further, but another subordinate rushed up. "Darien, forget it!

Seeing that Grace was fine, Timothy was finally no longer on tenterhooks. Just as he relaxed, he noticed the girl standing next to Grace.Curious, he asked, "Who are you?"Noelle stared at him sharply, not answering his question.Only then did Timothy carefully examine her.He found that she was really delicate. He reached out and touched her head, saying, "It's okay. You'll be reunited with your family soon."Unexpectedly, Noelle dodged his touch."Don't touch me!"Timothy hadn't expected this young girl to be so guarded. "Girl, aren't you underage?"This remark angered Noelle. "Who's underage? I'm already 19 years old!"19 years old?Timothy didn't believe it. Noelle looked like she hadn't fully grown, but he didn't argue with her.He just advised, "Don't run out alone in the future. The outside world is very dangerous. Today, you were lucky that you met milady. "You know, those human traffickers can do anything. They might take you and cut out your kidneys."Noelle's e

"Are you Mr. Anthony Jackson, the chairman of Elysium Bank?"Anthony smiled. "Indeed."Standing nearby, Timothy seemed to have realized something. "Mr. Jackson, are you and Noelle ... relatives?"Anthony replied, "I'm Noelle's father."This revelation left Grace stunned. She hadn't expected Noelle to be the daughter of Elysium Bank's chairman."Nice to meet you, Mr. Jackson." Grace greeted him confidently and elegantly.Anthony couldn't help but appreciate her. "There's no need for formalities, Ms. Lewis."Grace continued, "Mr. Jackson, Noelle has external injuries with some infections. After receiving medical treatment, she's no longer in danger, but she hasn't woken up yet."Anthony nodded slightly. "I already knew about Noelle's condition before coming. Thank you for saving her, Ms. Lewis.""There's no need to be so polite, Mr. Jackson. It was just a small effort. Now that you're here, Noelle is in your hands. We'll take our leave.""Wait a moment." Anthony signaled to his

Grace couldn't wait and ran toward Harold. "Grandpa, I'm back."Harold looked at Grace, who was holding his arm, and said with a hint of displeasure, "It was so dangerous tonight, and you went to join in the fun?"Do you know that those human traffickers are after money and don't care about their lives? What if something had happened to you?"Grace quickly reassured Harold. "Grandpa, I'm fine. I'm sorry for making you worry."Harold snorted. "There will be no next time. I'll strengthen your security details in the future. We can't afford such accidents again."Grace nodded repeatedly. "I got it, Grandpa."As they spoke, Harold looked at Aaron, who wasn't far away. "Tell me. What happened to those human traffickers?"Aaron replied, "The police caught a few accomplices, but the mastermind, Darien Perez, escaped. There's no news for now."Harold was furious. "How can they be so careless? They let the mastermind escape just like that. After inflicting such a big blow on them this t

"This miracle must bear fruit. If I can hold my great-grandchild soon, I'll have no regrets in life."Grace was amused. "Grandpa, does that mean I'll be out of favor in the future?""No matter what, you're the only apple in our eyes. No one can replace you."Grace leaned on Harold's arm and said adorably, "I knew you were the best to me, Grandpa."…The next morning, Grace held the usual meeting for Amirate online and didn't finish work until close to noon.She stretched lazily and came out of the study.Coincidentally, she ran into Aaron, who was coming home. He was still wearing the same clothes from the night before, and there were some wrinkles on his suit jacket.As Grace recalled what Harold said last night, her curiosity instantly reignited."Aaron, where did you go last night?"Aaron was stunned for a moment.Yet he composed himself quickly and turned the tables naturally. "Why? Did you just get up?""No." Grace quickly denied it. "I just finished a meeting. Where

"Well, it's just that since Mrs. Jarvis introduced me to Ms. Lewis last time, I haven't had the chance to say thanks."The elevator doors opened then, and Dexter left after saying this.…After two hours of emergency treatment, Diana clung to a thread of life. Grace walked out, exhausted, and saw the angry figure of Dexter.Coincidentally, Dexter saw her as well. He turned and called out to her, "Ms. Lewis."Dexter, known for being stern and upright, suddenly smiled, which surprised Grace. "Mr. Hamilton.""You don't need to address me like that outside of work. Just call me by my name."As he had a higher seniority than her, Grace didn't dare be casual. "Are you here visiting a patient?"The weather was nice today. Standing in the sunlight, Grace's complexion was shining, seemingly hovering between youthfulness and freshness. She seemed even more beautiful than the flowers.Dexter suddenly recalled something Orson had said, and his expression darkened momentarily."I must ask
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 829: Not Reporting to the Police
"Mr. Fulton, this.."The guard looked hesitantly at Benjamin lying on the ground and frowned."Isn't this a hospital? He won't die."As Xander said this, he coincidentally met the gaze of a nearby doctor. The doctor flinched and instinctively took a step back."Xander—" Benjamin's call suddenly came from behind as Xander took a step forward."Even if you deal with me, can you handle Alexander?"Benjamin's voice was filled with resentment and self-mockery. He lay flat on his back on the ground, staring at the ceiling. "My elder brother seems to avoid fighting, but if he does, you're no match for him."Xander paused momentarily, then continued to walk away without looking back or responding.Hazel followed closely. "Benjamin doesn't seem to be joking. Could there be a backup plan?""Someone needs to take over to completely deal with the Hawkins family. Let's see if the eldest son of the Hawkins family is willing to step up."As Xander entered the elevator, he coincidentally met
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 828 Keeping His Name In Prayers
At the entrance, the police saw what was happening and moved to intervene but were stopped. A signal to hold back was given. "Don't worry. Mr. Fulton won't cause any fatalities.""Especially since you dared to make a move against Grace." Xander gave a cold laugh. "She spent a few days in prison, so I'll make sure you repay that a thousand times over.""Xander—"Grace brought this on herself. She even dared to investigate the Hawkins family, to dig into the past of the previous Mrs. Hawkins, to investigate Alexander!" Benjamin endured the pain he felt and was on the verge of a breakdown. "By the way, do you know who Alexander is? And the person he loves the most."Xander's face turned ashen, and he applied more force, causing Benjamin to scream in agony."If you were in my position, you would do the same." Benjamin struggled to speak. "Besides, don't you want Alexander to disappear? Don't you want Grace to be yours and only yours?"Xander remained silent, looking around disdainful
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 827 Not As Soft-hearted
A commotion broke out again outside the hospital room. At the same moment, the medical equipment started beeping urgently. Reina's face turned pale with fright as she threw herself onto Diana. "Di Di! Doctor! Someone come quickly!"In a panic, Grace rushed out and pounded on Cael's office door. "Bed 24, Dr. Simpson! Di Di is not doing well!"Cael immediately hurried over with the nurses.Grace was pushed into a corner by the crowd. She leaned against the wall, her face filled with melancholy. This scene did not escape the eyes of someone hidden in a corner, who also felt a sense of wistfulness.She didn't notice the figure cast long shadows in the light, with her being the sole focus in their view.…Meanwhile, in another building, police stood guard at the hospital room door where Benjamin was confined. His face was haggard and unshaven, and he no longer looked like the well-dressed Benjamin Hawkins.Instead, he resembled a prisoner.Before entering, Xander asked, "What's the

"If it were as usual, working for these wealthy families would keep money in my hands. But after Di Di's incident, our whole family got crushed. Her father wanted to give up, but I couldn't, so we divorced.""When I worked at the Hawkins family, both Mr. Hawkins and Mrs. Hawkins treated me well. Mrs. Hawkins knew about Di Di's situation and kept giving me money, but it was never enough. One day, I accidentally stumbled upon Mr. Hawkins having an affair with Susan…"Reina recalled the past with a look of melancholy on her face. "Susan gave me hush money and promised another payment if I did something for her."Grace had a hunch after hearing this. "She wanted you to frame Mrs. Hawkins, who was pregnant at the time.""I didn't want to." Reina shook her head, clearly pained. "But I have a daughter. I couldn't lose Di Di. I needed that money."Even as a mother herself, she could actually harm Felicia Wilson, Alexander's mother."The Hawkins family is wealthy. If you had told Mrs. Haw

Grace thought about it. So that's what happened."So you had someone beat him up?""I forgot to ask. Which hand did he touch you with?" Xander asked seriously.She thought for a moment. "The left hand? I can't remember exactly.""No problem. Both hands were hit," Xander said casually as if discussing the weather. Grace remembered the content of that video. Orson was clearly heavily injured and beaten mercilessly.Luckily, he got what he deserved. Xander had fiercely avenged her.The coat slipped off, revealing her outfit for the day. Xander glanced at it and said, "You're going out."Grace didn't deny it. She thought of today's matter with Celia. "Benjamin was released for medical treatment. I want to see him."Since it had come to this point, a meeting with him was reasonable.Xander leaned back on the couch, not speaking for a moment, his jaw clenched tight. He seemed to be contemplating something, or perhaps he was angry.Grace couldn't be sure, but she was resolute. "I

An hour later, Xander concluded the negotiations, with the partnership successfully sealed and the contract signed that day.He personally escorted the clients to the elevator and then returned to his office. Hazel approached cautiously with a cup of coffee. "Mr. Fulton.""Speak." Xander didn't look up from his documents."Ms. Lewis came by."He looked up at Hazel, his expression shifting. "Where is she?""She wanted to see you directly, but since the contract wasn't finalized, I didn't dare let her in to disturb you, so I…""I asked where she is."His gaze was icy, cutting her off mid-sentence.Hazel immediately lowered her head. "She's in the lounge."He stood up abruptly and headed straight for the lounge, leaving a stern warning, "If you take matters into your own hands again, resign."Hazel was left stunned.Grace hadn't left. Exhausted from the sleepless night, she lay on Futurelink's large couch, lost in thought.When Xander entered, he saw her fragile figure, as if
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 823 No Longer Under Fulton Group
"What is it?""Ms. Lewis, I just received news that Orson from the municipal bureau is in trouble…"Grace's expression changed. She had just seen him last night. How could something have happened so suddenly? Her first thought was of Xander.Luke sent her a video.It was night time In the video, the street outside a bar was brightly lit, and neon signs flashed from the tall buildings. The place was bustling with people. The videographer had been capturing the night scene when suddenly, the sound of roaring engines was heard—Orson stepped out of a car, dressed formally, and entered a club discreetly. But within minutes, he was kicked out, landing heavily on the ground.Approaching him were five or six masked men in black, clearly part of an organized group of thugs. Orson screamed in fear, "Who are you?"Two men grabbed him, while the others began beating him badly. His screams echoed through the street, and it was clear they were showing no mercy.Blood pooled on the ground.

With nothing better to do, Grace nodded. "Let's watch."Caleb led her out the door.The leading actress of the film they were heading to was a friend of Caleb's in the industry, which allowed him to visit the set under the guise of catching up. As their car parked at the entrance, they saw a throng of reporters pushing their way inside.Celia wore a hat and mask. She was dragging a suitcase, and she looked disheveled and desperate. "You can't fire me! I'm the second female lead! The film is almost finished! You're breaching the contract!""You caused a scandal. That's the real breach of contract. It's a good thing we're not asking you for damage compensation! Get out, get out!"The staff were shoving her out.Reporters swarmed her. "Celia, how do you respond to the video online?""Is it true you have a sugar daddy?""Celia, Celia!""Shut up!" Celia screamed, her hair a mess. "It's fake, all fake! I'm an actress, how could I do such things?""But the video…"Celia lashed out,
