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
"She hid it so well! She never showed a hint of the truth in front of us. If I had known she was the Lewis family's heiress, I wouldn't have dared to say anything bad about her.""We even treated her as a mistress. How could the Lewis family's heiress be someone's mistress? It's such a joke.""That's the Lewis family. If they stomp their feet, the whole of Frenda will tremble. We're just too different."Shirley felt a mix of emotions as she listened to her friends. Her father had cut off all of her credit cards because she had offended Grace and the Lewis family. Now, it was difficult for her to get even a few hundred dollars."Enough. Stop talking about her," she said angrily.Several classmates looked at each other and fell silent."Shirley, shall we go take a look at the limited edition bag you told me about?""Yeah, Shirley, I heard Chanel has a new perfume. I really want it."Shirley couldn't say she had no money, so she could only force herself to say, "Let's go take a lo
"Even if you flatter her, she might not want you."After saying this, Shirley walked away angrily, leaving behind a group of people exchanging glances awkwardly.Blair wanted to catch up with her. "Shirley, wait for me."However, the next second, she was held back by one of the others."Why chase after her? Do you still think she's still the same Lowe family's heiress?"Blair was puzzled. "What do you mean by that?""Don't you know she offended Grace? The Lewis family has already released news that they will acquire Lowe Enterprise within a week.""Lowe Enterprise is in danger now, and I heard that they have cut off all of Shirley's financial sources. From now on, it's better for us to have less contact with her."At their words, Blair decided not to chase after Shirley.After thinking for a moment, she said, "If only we hadn't offended Grace. If we could form a connection with the Lewis family, success would be just around the corner.""Oh, do you think only you regret it? W
The red sedan had already been brought under control by the bodyguards.As the car window was wound down, a bodyguard stepped forward and reported, "Ms. Lewis, we've intercepted the person. How would you like to handle it?"Grace opened the door and got out of the car. At first glance, she saw Shirley in the driver's seat, trembling with fear.Seeing Grace, Shirley lowered her eyes guiltily. "Gr-Grace."Grace snorted and approached without hesitation. A crisp sound echoed as she slapped Shirley. "Is this all you're capable of, Shirley?"Shirley's face had turned to the side thanks to the slap, but she didn't dare to retaliate.She had impulsively wanted to run Grace over, but she had never expected the Lewis family's bodyguards to be so formidable.She had only driven less than two miles before she had been intercepted."Grace, I only regret not killing you just now."Grace sneered. "Do you think you're worthy of doing that? Shirley, this is attempted murder. Based on this alo
After looking Noelle up and down, Timothy teased, "Really? You don't look like it at all."Noelle stomped her foot in anger, but he seemed indifferent and even stuck his tongue out at her.This completely irritated Noelle. "You old man in your 30s!"Timothy objected, "Who's in their 30s? Correct yourself."Noelle, who had just scored a point, stuck her tongue out at him and then pulled Grace inside.Annoyed, Timothy hurriedly followed."Girl, open your eyes and take a good look. How do I look like I'm in my 30s?"The two continued to argue, refusing to give in to each other.Watching these two bickering, Grace couldn't help but find them amusing. Somehow, they seemed cute together.Just as she was lost in thought, Hestia's voice suddenly rang out. "Gracie!"This time, Grace was surprised. "Aunt Hestia, you're here too?"Anthony, who appeared with her, quickly explained, "Hestia and I have been good friends for years."Hestia continued, "That's right. Anthony said it's all t
