In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 382 Doubting Everything
They reached the laboratory's entrance, and Kelly pointed to a door on the far right on the second floor. "He should be there. Let's go!" Grace followed closely. The door to the laboratory on the second floor was slightly ajar. Kelly knocked on the door and asked, "Professor William, are you in?" There was no response. Kelly pushed the door open, and the two walked along the corridor until they reached the end. Grace saw a man with slightly white hair, wearing a white coat, conducting experiments in the laboratory. He held a pipette, dripping liquid into a glass bottle, creating a dazzling light inside the bottle. William stopped and recorded the data with a smile. After completing his experiments, he took off his safety goggles and walked out of the laboratory. "William! You're messing around again." William, however, was thrilled."There's a breakthrough. I can finally continue writing the new research paper." He looked at Grace and asked, "Who is this?" Grace to

As he spoke, William took his phone and logged onto his online storage system. He quickly swiped across the screen, finally stopping at the time point of the year 2019. Then, he handed the phone to Grace. "I was a judge for this competition. The entire competition was recorded with videos and photos. Take a look at the video of the awards session. Didn't she come first?" Grace took the phone and opened the video, but found no trace of herself. Jessica, however, stood on the highest podium, and William personally presented her with the trophy. Grace's mind was filled with confusion. This was absurd. How could this be? In disbelief, she reopened a picture of the list of contestants, only to find that her name wasn't on it.Yet she distinctly remembered competing in three rounds, defeating six opponents, advancing to the finals, and ultimately winning the championship. "Professor Kelly, this can't be real ..." Grace looked at Kelly with hope, hoping the latter could spe

Jessica laughed. "Grace, you really overestimate yourself." With that, she hung up. Grace tightened her grip as she listened to the dial tone, and her eyes gradually darkened. After a pause, she made another call. "Victor, are you busy?" Victor thought he had misheard and took another look at the number. He teased Grace, "Gracie, you finally decided to call me! This is rare."Grace puffed her cheeks and retorted, "Not at all, Victor!" Victor interjected, "Alright, what's up?" Grace smirked and answered, "It's a small matter. I was wondering if you could help with something." "Let me hear it." "Can you access Coronia University's archive system?" As she spoke, violent coughing erupted on the other end of the phone. After a moment, Victor asked in astonishment, "Gracie, you're not asking me to hack the system, are you?" "Well, I want to know if someone has ever tampered with it." Grace suspected that Jessica had manipulated the records and wanted confirmation

Grace raised her eyebrows and muttered, "He's too efficient!" However, the siblings were unaware that someone was already a step ahead of Victor. In the archive room, the sound of someone tapping away on the keyboard could be heard, and a series of numbers and characters appeared on the blank computer screen. Xander's fingers quickly danced across the keyboard, and in just two minutes, he had accessed the academic information system. He also took the time to fix a few bugs in the system. After five minutes, he smiled and exited the academic information system after transferring all the information he had found to his phone. After clearing all traces, Xander finally left the archive room. ... At this moment, Grace was holding William's phone, watching the competition video again. After talking with Jessica, she became certain the video had been edited.But she didn't say it out loud in front of William. Instead, she asked, "Professor William, can you send me a copy of t

Grace was surprised that Xander was so skilled in computer software. Even Victor, who was a top-notch hacker, had said that hacking into this system was tricky. How had Xander managed to get in so quickly? He had even managed to obtain information! "Xander, how did you do it?"Callum coughed lightly on the side. He wanted to help Xander explain but feared that saying too much would expose Xander's secret identity. He had to control himself. Xander cleared his throat and didn't answer her question. "I've checked your information file, and the altered information has been restored." Grace felt relieved. With this, all of Jessica's plans had fallen apart. "But ..." Xander paused and continued, "I didn't find the original design that was plagiarized in your file."Grace felt like she had been struck by lightning. Her expression stiffened, and she asked, "How is that possible?" Xander looked grave as he explained, "There's only one possibility. That original design was never

It took about two hours by car to reach Jessica's house from Coronia University. The road was bumpy along the way. During the journey, Callum briefed them on Jessica's background. In short, she was the only child from a wealthy family. This became evident when they saw the large villa when they got to the Landon family's house. The villa had an antique design, with a large garden in front featuring meticulously cared-for flowers and plants. "This is the place," Callum said, stepping out of the car first. "Let's go look," Xander said, reassuringly gripping Grace's hand. Grace nodded and followed him out of the car. Standing outside the villa, they started to examine it closely. Callum was the first to speak. "Theoretically, the Landon family hasn't lived here for a long time, but the villa is so well-kempt. It doesn't look abandoned." After saying this, he stepped forward and rang the doorbell. Soon, a woman in her 50s or 60s emerged from the house and slowly approac

Grace, however, caught on to the housekeeper's words and casually asked, "You've been working for the Landon family for many years, haven't you? That also makes you a long-time member of the household." The housekeeper nodded. "I've been with the Landon family since Ms. Jessica was very young. It's been almost 20 years." Grace and Xander exchanged glances. She continued, "So you must have watched Jessica grow up!" The housekeeper smiled and nodded as if reminiscing about the past. "Ms. Jessica had always been obedient and attentive when she was young. She always listened to Mr. and Mrs. Landon. "She has also excelled in her studies since she was little. She was their pride and joy. Ms. Jessica would be happiest if they were still here, but ..." At this point, the housekeeper couldn't help but sigh. "Mr. and Mrs. Landon unfortunately passed away. They lost their lives in a car accident five years ago. "As for Ms. Jessica, although she survived that accident, she spent near

The housekeeper explained, "Ever since Ms. Jessica's accident, she's avoided this place to repress the painful memories. So these are all her previous works. Did you not find the drawing she mentioned?" "That's not it," Grace muttered. Then, she took out her phone and said, "I'm not sure which one it is. I'll take a picture and ask her." The housekeeper didn't doubt her and replied, "Sure, go ahead. While you're at it, ask Ms. Jessica if she will return anytime soon. That would be best."The housekeeper sounded like she was looking forward to it. Grace looked up at her. She couldn't help but think that she, too, had grown up without her parents. Fortunately, she had always had Marien around to care for her and had lived a comfortable life. "You've watched Jessica grow up, so you must be close to her, right?" The housekeeper replied, "I'm just a housekeeper." She made her identity and position clear with a simple statement. Grace didn't press on further but quickly took

"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

"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

"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,
