In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 411 Flawless Acting
When Jessica heard this, she couldn't help laughing out loud. Her laughter was shrill and jarring to the ears. It made everyone who heard it frown.She only stopped after a long time and then pulled herself free of Grace's grip. She said coldly, "What kind of nonsense is that? If I'm not Jessica, then who am I?""That's what I want to know too."Grace looked grim as she stared at Jessica, trying to get something out of her. However, Jessica only laughed. "Is this the evidence you found, Grace? As far as I can see, this doesn't prove anything."Can this prove your innocence? I don't think so! The fact is that you plagiarized me, and I advise you not to keep badgering me or making up ridiculous excuses like this."Grace raised her eyebrows. "So you won't admit it?"Jessica looked righteous. "What do I have to admit? Do I need to prove my own identity? You don't see any burn scars on my body because I had a skin grafting operation, which covered the scars very well."As for the b

Jessica laughed arrogantly. She didn't know if Grace didn't understand how serious things were or if she just didn't care at all. Her voice was dripping with scorn as she said, "Grace, oh Grace. How could you be in the mood to drink tea at this point? Within half an hour, your reputation will be ruined. I'll see if you can still laugh then."Grace just answered carelessly, "Really? Let's wait and see."She had just finished speaking when she saw that the long hand on her watch was pointing to 10:30 am. Her lips curled. "The show has begun."Jessica didn't understand what she meant, but two minutes later, her phone rang. "Bad news, Ms. Landon. Something's happened."The voice on the other end of the phone said something, and Jessica's expression changed completely. "That's impossible … It's completely impossible."Jessica hung up at once and pointed at Grace. "It's you! You're the one who did all this! You bitch, how could you be so venomous?"Grace said slowly, "That's a bit

The two of them exchanged glances and said simultaneously, "The Quine family?""The Quine family!"There was a flash of surprise in Grace's eyes. "Xander, it looks like we had the same thought.""Just now, the fake Jessica kept going on about a billion dollars, and it's not the first time she's emphasized this amount. Only the Quine family have had a conflict with us over a billion dollars. There's no one else."In a deep, low voice, Xander analyzed the situation. The past incident between Grace and Richard over the latter's billion-dollar finger ring had spread like wildfire through the upper class society. As a result, the Quine family's reputation had suffered a great blow.After that there had been the issue with Yvonne. Now, the Quines, who had once been one of the leading families in Pamore, were completely bankrupt!This series of events were all connected to Grace in some way.Therefore, the Quine family was most likely behind the plagiarism issue."Plus, I've already c

Richard's skin was loose, and his hair had turned white. He seemed to have aged several years since Grace had last seen him.He was so focused on his work that he didn't notice Grace behind him.It was only when Grace stood in front of him that he said courteously, "Do you need your car washed, miss?"Upon not getting an answer, Richard looked up. When he saw who was in front of him, his kind expression immediately changed. He looked furious."It's you!"The bucket in his hand fell to the ground, sending water splashing out onto the floor.Gace smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes. "Mr. Quine Senior, it's been a while."Richard clenched his teeth furiously at the sight of Grace.He glared at Grace and said very unpleasantly, "What are you doing here?""Mr. Quine Senior, shall we talk for a while?"Richard huffed coldly and said nastily, "I don't have anything to say to you. If you're here to ridicule me, then look at me all you want. Just don't interrupt my work."He was no

Grace couldn't understand this at all. But she didn't have time to think more about it as a calm figure walked toward her down the corridor. Benjamin looked at Grace, who was standing next to Xander. His gaze darkened, and he clenched his fists.Beside him, Larry felt the murderous air Benjamin was exuding. He coughed lightly and said, "Ms. Lewis!"Grace raised her eyebrows and turned in surprise.Then, she saw that Benjamin was standing some distance away behind her. She didn't know how long he had been there. His eyes were focused on the operating theater's doors, which were tightly shut."Grace, aren't you satisfied with how much the Quine family has fallen?"Benjamin's tone was extremely unpleasant. He faced Grace, looking as if he was about to defend the Quine family.Grace's eyes narrowed. "Mr. Hawkins, are you here to defend the Quine family?""No!" Benjamin blurted out as he looked at Grace. "I just hope that you'll stop here."Grace's lips curled scornfully. "I thoug

"It's not looking good for the patient. He has problems with his heart, and we need to urgently do a coronary artery bypass grafting procedure on his heart. If you're his family, then please sign the consent form as soon as possible."As he spoke, the doctor handed the surgery consent form to Benjamin. After a moment's hesitation, Benjamin picked up a pen and signed his own name. "No matter what, please try your best to save him.""Don't worry, we'll do our best."Then, there was silence in the corridor once more. When the doctor had returned to the operating theater, Benjamin instructed, "Larry, contact the best heart specialist in the world and get them here immediately.""Yes, Mr. Hawkins."Larry went off to the side at once to make calls. Then, Benjamin looked at Grace. He commanded her to leave at once. "Grace, there's nothing else to do here. You should leave."Grace didn't say anything, but truth be told, she was worried for Richard. She hadn't expected things to get to

In the office, the assistant reported carefully, "Jion, several of our partners have terminated their contracts with us. They've forcefully sued us to get compensation for breach of contract."The suppliers who have already paid are applying to return the products. The store can't hold anymore, and the clothing factories have stopped production."This incident is seriously affecting us. Doing PR for the news online isn't working. No one cares about the price we're offering."There was silence. When Jessica heard the updates, she was enraged. She angrily swung a hand across everything on the table, sending documents flying to the ground. "Damn it! Get lost, all of you!"Even though the assistant was frightened by Jessica's outburst, he continued speaking patiently. "Jion, if this goes on, our studio will be forced to close down sooner or later—"Jessica roared, "Then, let's close down! You all are just useless trash, and it's not worth keeping you anyway! What are you here for

Someone even started a live stream on their phone, and the number of viewers began increasing rapidly. There were almost one million people watching. "Jion, can you answer our questions?""You were the one who plagiarized Ms. Lewis' designs from the very beginning, but you falsely accused her of plagiarism and reported her. Where did you get the confidence to do that? Did you really think that the truth would never come to light? Or were you just betting on getting lucky?""Jion, what do you plan to do next? Will you apologize to the fans who once supported you?"Jessica covered her ears, not wanting to hear any of the reporters' questions. She kept shaking her head as she muttered, "I didn't plagiarize. I've been framed. This is all slander! All of you, get away from me! Get away!"But the reporters gave her no chance at all and kept their microphones and cameras in her face. She had no room to breathe. "Jion, please answer our questions."Jessica's mind went blank. She fel

"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

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,
