It was hard to answer Grace's question because Jessica had disappeared. Half an hour later, Zoey sent her a message. "Gracie, Jessica's disappeared."Grace was startled. "What did you say?"Zoey explained, "The person I hired to follow her said that she got out of a car right at the hospital's entrance. But then she was immediately whisked away in a black car."Grace clenched her fist when she heard that."She was taken away?""It looks like the other party is professionally trained. Their movements were practiced, and by the time my guy realized what was happening, Jessica had already disappeared.""Okay."Grace hung up, her eyes darkening. She looked toward the tightly closed door of the operating theater, where Richard was still undergoing surgery.Jessica had already shown up at the hospital, which showed that she and the Quines didn't have an ordinary relationship.But then who had taken her away?… That night, the hospital was quiet, and there was no one in the corrid
If the Quine family hadn't gone bankrupt and Yvonne hadn't suddenly disappeared, Jessica wouldn't have come back.And Danielle would still have been dead in everyone's memory."Danielle, I'm sorry about Yvonne." Benjamin didn't explain much. A simple apology conveyed everything."Ha, it's quite rare to hear an apology from the mighty Mr. Hawkins. But I don't need your apology. I just need your help to revive my family."Let's join forces against Grace. I want to crush her and destroy her completely. I want her to experience what losing everything feels like," Danielle said with determination.Benjamin's eyes sank, and he directly rejected her. "While I'm around, don't even think about touching Grace."That sentence was enough to express his stance.Danielle was surprised. Benjamin, who was known for his ruthless methods and was unbeatable in the business world, actually had a weakness."Benjamin, you only have one choice. Either help me, or Grace and I will die together. I don'
"I'll just roll with the punches."Grace had already formed a plan in her mind. Whatever it was that Jessica intended to do, she would handle it with caution.At 9:00 am, Grace walked into Amirate Corporation in her high heels. She looked exceptionally capable in her professional attire.As soon as she showed up, Luke, who had been waiting for her, quickly approached her. "Ms. Lewis, you're back."Grace nodded slightly and then entered the elevator. Luke followed closely, reporting Grace's schedule for the day."At 10:00 am, you have a video conference. At 11:00 am, you have a meeting with Mr. Barnes from Barnes Group in the conference room on the 22nd floor."As the elevator slowly ascended, it finally stopped at the top floor. Grace listened to Luke's updates and gave a light acknowledgment. "Okay."Then, she walked out of the elevator.Unexpectedly, Samuel approached her with a smile."Ms. Lewis, it's been a long time! You finally came to the company. I was worried that som
Grace smiled, seemingly agreeing as she nodded. "You're right, Director Walker. We shouldn't make things too ugly between us."However, the next moment, she opened her bag and took out a USB drive."Considering the overall situation, there are some things that I haven't revealed, but I think I should inform you in advance. What do you think?"Samuel didn't understand the meaning behind Grace's words, but his gaze focused on the USB drive in Grace's hand. "What are you trying to say, Ms. Lewis?"Grace smiled slightly and handed the USB drive to him.Leaning closer, she whispered, "Director Walker, although you and your wife are seniors in the company, you still have to abide by the company's rules. I think you're aware of what your wife has been doing in the finance department all these years."Her words made Samuel's face change instantly. "What are you trying to say?""Everything I want to say is on this USB drive. If you're interested, you can look at it at home."Hearing tha
At the mention of this, Luke's expression turned serious. "Ms. Lewis, the collapse of the Dunhill mine is suspicious. There were no casualties at the scene, but it has had a certain impact on our project progress.""Have you found out if it's an accident or intentional?"Luke raised his eyes, his mouth pursed into a straight line. "Based on the traces at the scene, it doesn't seem like an accident."Grace's eyes darkened slightly at this revelation, and she couldn't help but snort. "It seems someone couldn't sit still."A meaningful look flashed across her face. "Is this related to them?"Luke only said, "The investigation into this matter is ongoing. Once we get results, I'll report to you immediately."Grace waved her hand, signaling for Luke to leave her office.She raised her eyes and looked out of the floor-to-ceiling window. As she overlooked the city, she got lost in thought.Just then, a pleasant ringtone brought her back to the present."Grace, shall we meet?" Jessica
"It's your choice whether to believe me or not.""Hah, Grace, you're quite arrogant. Aren't you afraid I'll ruin everything you have?"Grace smiled, but her eyes were icy. "That depends on whether you're capable enough."Danielle had a determined expression. "Since you've put it that way, starting today, you should be careful."Landon Group won't let go of any of Amirate's projects. I'll make sure you fall from grace."Unyielding, Grace raised her eyes, meeting Danielle's head on. "Ms. Quine, are you declaring war on me?"Danielle shrugged, seemingly nonchalant. "So what if I am? By the way, let me remind you—I won't just snatch your business. I might even snatch your man too."Do you know why Benjamin used to take special care of Yvonne and even divorced you for her?"Feeling smug, Danielle tilted her chin. "That's because I asked him to take care of my family. He even went against you for the sake of my family. Grace, you loved Benjamin so much. It must be painful for you."
Benjamin composed his expression but remained silent.Danielle continued with a cold sneer, "But as a woman, I can clearly tell that Grace has no feelings for you, Benjamin. You should give up."Her words seemed to provoke Benjamin. He snapped, "Enough, Danielle.""Why? Are you unwilling to accept it?"Benjamin's lips twitched slightly. "Those who commit sins will perish. If you want to start over, I can give you the greatest support. Consider it Alexander's compensation for you.""Don't mention him!" Danielle yelled.Her emotions became extremely unstable. "Benjamin, don't mention him in front of me."Holding her head, she was in a state of losing control.As she turned around, she looked coldly at Benjamin, almost raging. "Benjamin, if you're willing to help me, invest 500 million dollars in Landon Group. Otherwise, I'll take Grace with me in death."When it came to money, Benjamin didn't hesitate for a moment.He took out his checkbook from his pocket and signed his name o
"There's a business reception tonight. It's time for Amirate to explore some new projects. Would you like to go and take a look?"Grace's eyes lit up, and she readily agreed."Sure, I've been worrying about the performance for the second half of the year. I haven't figured out anything yet, but maybe I can develop some new projects through this opportunity."…At 7:00 pm, Santio Grand Hotel, which was located in Pamore's most luxurious spot, was now brightly lit. There was a constant stream of people entering the hotel.Most of those attending this business reception were from some of Pamore's top-notch enterprises.In other words, if one could get an invitation to this reception, they must already have considerable wealth. Naturally, Hawkins Group was invited as well.After helping Benjamin get ready in his suit and tie, Larry respectfully said, "Mr. Hawkins, Futurelink is one of the organizers of tonight's business reception. Ms. Lewis is likely to attend."Benjamin's movemen
