In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 426 Not Your Place
"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
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 427 Attending the Reception
At the mention of Celia, Benjamin's eyes darkened, and his face became quite grim.Susan snorted and also began to complain to Benjamin. "Benjamin, you sent Cece abroad, and she has already suffered so much. When are you going to bring her back? Do you really want me to never meet my daughter again?"Benjamin turned around. His tone was calm as he replied, "Mom, if you want to stay with Celia, I can arrange that for you anytime."At those words, Susan immediately shut up.Astana, where Cece was, was poor and desolate, with a very bad living environment.Susan wasn't young anymore. If she were sent to such a place, she might not last a few days before her life was put in danger."Benjamin, I didn't mean that. I just miss Cece … Forget it. She made mistakes. It's okay if you want to punish her a bit. Luckily, I have Jessica with me now.""In that case, Ms. Landon, please take care of her."Looking obedient, Jessica said, "Mr. Hawkins, rest assured. I'll take good care of Madam Ha
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 428 Utterly Embarrassed
"Madam Hawkins, it's been a long time. You seem to be getting younger and younger.""What have you been busy with lately? Don't you have time to play cards with us?""We should get together when we have the chance."Listening to the crowd's "expressions of concern", Susan couldn't help but feel extremely satisfied. It was as if she had regained the feeling of being the center of attention as she had before.A sense of pride quickly welled up in her heart.Jessica, who was by her side, naturally attracted everyone's attention. "Madam Hawkins, this is …"Hearing that, Jessica took the initiative to be friendly. "Hi, everyone. I'm Jessica Landon."Upon hearing that, the crowd couldn't help but size Jessica up. Yet she was completely unfamiliar to them. So they concluded that she wasn't the daughter of any of the prestigious families.Hence, they didn't pay much attention to Jessica. Their attitudes toward her instantly cooled, and they showed no intention of interacting with her.
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 429 United Against a Common Enemy
Jessica elaborated on her situation, adding exaggerations to her story. Almost every word that came out of her mouth was aimed at defending herself.As Susan listened, her face contorted with anger. "That Grace is really not a good person. She's so malicious. She treated Cece and me that way before."Jessica lowered her gaze, feigning sadness as she sighed. "Sadly, I'm insignificant, and she's the Lewis family's daughter. I can't do anything to her. I can only endure."Susan knew that feeling all too well.In the past, she had also suffered at the hands of Grace. Even now, there was no news from Celia in Astana. They were separated by a great distance.Patting Jessica's hand, Susan pretended to console her. "You're not at fault, my dear. It's just that Grace is too cunning."Don't worry. The mills of justice grind slowly but surely. We just need to wait and see how miserable her end will be."Jessica nodded, humming in agreement. She then linked arms with Susan, appearing quite
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 430 Sarcastic Remarks
The wealthy lady sarcastically remarked, "Mrs. Hawkins, I don't think you're jealous. You're regretful—extremely regretful."After all, you were blind and turned down the opportunity to have the world's richest family's daughter as your daughter-in-law. Now you've found a—"She scrutinized Jessica, not bothering to hide her disdain as she said, "You found a person who can't be brought to the table. It's truly indescribable."Susan became anxious. "What nonsense are you talking about? Who did you say is blind? Explain yourself."Smiling, the wealthy lady shook her head and didn't bother engaging in further discussion with Susan. Instead, she walked toward Grace.Left alone, Susan stomped her foot in frustration."Ms. Lewis." The wealthy lady greeted Grace with a demeanor that was in stark contrast to how she had spoken to Susan.Grace smiled. "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Wright."Evelyn Dixon, who was known as Mrs. Wright, didn't expect Grace to know her. She felt greatly satisfied.
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 431 Are You Serious
Xander leaned in and pecked her lips, silencing all the words Grace was about to say.At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and Grace stared wide-eyed at him.She forgot to react.Xander chuckled affectionately and embraced her tighter. "Gracie, I hope we can have a happy marriage soon."Dumbfounded, Grace looked at him blankly. It took her several seconds to react. Then, she responded with a shy and soft hum.Her consent brought a gleam of joy to Xander's eyes. "Gracie, are you serious?"Grace smiled and looked him in the eyes.As Xander looked into her eyes, which were reflecting his figure, he smiled brightly.He had been waiting for this day for too long.The crowd around them also had their eyes fixed on them, and Grace's cheeks turned even redder. "Xander, there are people around."Only then did Xander release her.Grace quickly turned her face away and took a deep breath. She could feel the disoriented beats of her heart. This feeling was both familiar and unfam
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 432 Discovered a Secret
Grace smiled and agreed. "Sure, let's find some time to talk about it."However, Matthew seemed a bit impatient.Working with Futurelink and Amirate—two of Pamore's top companies—was something he had always dreamed of.Additionally, although Byte Technologies showed some promise, it still faced cash flow issues.With the strong backing of Futurelink and Amirate, the future of Byte Technologies would undoubtedly be bright."Ms. Lewis, Mr. Fulton, since we've met today, why not find a place to discuss our collaboration?"Grace and Xander exchanged a glance, both expressing their agreement.Matthew quickly ordered, "Wayne, go to the nearby hotel and book a business suite. We'll talk over there."Wayne promptly agreed. "Yes, Mr. Thorne.""Ms. Lewis, Mr. Fulton, see you there later."With a farewell, Matthew walked away with a cheerful smile.However, Grace couldn't help but feel curious. "Xander, why does it seem like Mr. Thorne is being overly enthusiastic?"Xander answered he
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 433 Catch Them in the Act
The two of them silently moved away from the couch.Jessica quickly pulled Susan into a corner. "This woman is really shameless. She actually booked a hotel room with a streamer in broad daylight."Susan scornfully added, "She was always fickle. I just don't get why Benjamin is still obsessed with her. This time, I must make him see her true colors."As she said that, she was ready to call Benjamin. Yet Jessica stopped her."We cannot rush this, Madam Hawkins. Let's plan carefully."However, Susan couldn't contain her frustration. "She's so disgusting. I can't stand it for a moment. I must make Benjamin see what kind of person she really is."The more she talked about it, the more agitated she became.Seeing Susan like this, Jessica snatched her phone away. "Madam Hawkins, don't be hasty. We don't have evidence now."Even if we bring Benjamin here, what can we do? Grace is cunning. She might just deny everything, and we'd be powerless."Upon hearing Jessica's words, Susan fina
