In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 525 Grab the Chance
Within ten minutes, one of the family members came out of the hospital room. "Please come in, Ms. Lewis."Grace didn't forget to take the documents with her.Eric was already awake. He lay on the hospital bed, looking at everyone through half-closed eyes.Raymond gestured toward him. "Gracie, say hello."Grace bowed. "Hello, Mr. Schultz. My name is Grace. Grace Lewis.""I know you. I was planning to meet you after the meeting ended.""That's not important. The most important thing is that you're safe and healthy.""Not important?""In terms of my job, the safety of the leader of Frenda's citizens is the most important."Eric's stern face broke into a smile as he looked at Raymond. "Ray, your goddaughter speaks very well."Raymond was very proud. "As she should.""I always repay my debts. You saved me. Tell me what you want."He was very direct. Grace gripped the corner of her documents tightly. "Will you give me whatever I want?""You don't hide anything, do you?""To be

"How is this not good news? Byte Technologies is Amirate's partner for this project, and Amirate belongs to the Lewis family. "If you help me, you're helping the entire family. Don't you think of yourself as part of the Lewis family?"Victor didn't reply to her voice message for a long time. Raymond was all smiles. "I can imagine the expression on Victor's face right now."Grace giggled. When she looked at Raymond from this angle in the car, Grace realized that the authority Xander exuded was very similar to that of his father. "Uncle Raymond, hasn't Fulton Group already been handed over to Xander? Why did you need to come personally?""Why? Shouldn't you know better than me?"He was poking fun at Grace, and she felt rather embarrassed.Xander had been focusing completely on Futurelink Corporation, and as a result, he didn't have as much energy to manage Fulton Group.She couldn't help defending Xander. "Xander started managing Fulton Group when he was 18 years old because

"Xander, you …" Hestia's voice trailed off downstairs. She had seen Grace, too.Grace stood where she was, staring at the man on the stairs in surprise."Xander? When did you get here?"Xander looked exhausted, but it didn't seem like he had just arrived in Frenda.He looked a little resigned and smiled as he leaned against the banisters. "Gracie, it looks like we really are fated for each other. What a surprise to see you here, of all places.""Don't talk nonsense." Grace was annoyed as she walked closer. "Were you already in Frenda when I called Peter?"Xander didn't deny it. "I had some business to take care of.""Where's my car?""Parked at my house.""You didn't even drive it back for me before you went abroad."Xander stared at her exposed skin, his gaze intense. "I wanted to make an excuse for us to meet again."Grace jumped, and her neck turned red at once. It felt uncomfortably warm.Hestia tactfully retreated without speaking when she saw what was happening."How

As an outsider, Grace didn't want to ask too much about the affairs of the Fulton family, but now there was no turning back. "I heard everything after 'rascal'."Xander burst into laughter. "You're very honest."Grace put the soup down. "Xander, have some supper.""Did you make this?""The maid did." She really was very honest.Xander ate two spoonfuls, but he didn't have much of an appetite. He set it aside. "What do you want to ask?"Grace stood behind him and began massaging his shoulders. "Aunt Hestia and Uncle Raymond raised us. Apart from the Lewis family, I always thought they only had you. Then, why do they call you the 'eldest son'?"She was exerting just the right amount of pressure, and Xander closed his eyes."Do you remember why my father and mother got divorced?""Aunt Hestia and Uncle Raymond have always liked bickering. At the time, they said it was just out of impulse.""At their level, it's not easy to get divorced. If it hadn't been something to do with p

Hestia was quite indignant, insisting that was the way it should be."Pick a few of ME's signature items, and I'll have someone draft a contract for you to sign this afternoon." Grace was pleasantly surprised. "Amirate's media is still not stable, I'm afraid—" "That's precisely why I want to give you a hand." Hestia looked at her with admiration and said, "I trust you. Go ahead and do it. I won't work with other platforms for the Black Friday sale. You have my full support, so be confident." This was for the best. It gave Amirate Corporation another card to play. Grace was very touched. "Thank you, Aunt Hestia!"Hestia looked very young for her age. Even though she was 50 years old, she looked like she was in her 30s. Only the fine lines at the corners of her eyes showed the traces of time. Grace looked at her, wanting to say more. "What's wrong?" Grace actually wanted to ask about more—about that woman outside, for one. But Hestia hadn't revealed anything over the ye

At the mention of this, there was a vicious glint in Xander's eyes. It was fleeting yet intense. "Hmm, you don't need to worry about it." Grace caught it and raised her hand to straighten his collar. "Xander, you've always been gentle. Your hands shouldn't be tainted with blood. I can help you when necessary. I'm not afraid of anything." Grace's eyes were more determined than ever. She looked almost as intimidating as Xander. Over the years, she had been through a lot. She was no longer the naïve young girl she once was. She knew that in this circle, there was never such a thing as peace. Xander caught her hand and said, "Through thick and thin?" "Yes, I remember." She also knew why he had said that at the time. The vicious look in his eyes faded. He held her hand and caressed it in his palm. "No, Gracie, you don't have to stoop so low for me." …A few hours earlier, at Fulton Group. Xander had taken over the company at the age of 18. He was well-known as an au

His real name was Jake Silas.Jake's face turned dark, and he yelled, "Xander!" "Your mother has wild ambitions, provoking us right to our home, but does the Fulton family accept you?" Xander stepped closer to Jake. He was slightly taller, so he towered over him. "Changing your own surname is just deceiving yourself and others. Just like your methods, it isn't worthy of any attention." Jake clenched his fists. "So what if you're the eldest son of the Fulton family? You need to see the bigger picture and consider the overall situation. "But I don't have to. I might not be as presentable, but I'm more aggressive and confident than you! You're always so proud, but you've forgotten that between the tortoise and the hare, the hare lost." Xander smirked mockingly. "You're overthinking this. I won't be the rabbit." With that, he turned and walked out. "If you're interested in playing with women, you might as well go home and see if your mother is still alive." "Xander!"

"Because you treated me to it." "Xander, that's just silly!" She thought of that scene and couldn't help but laugh. Seeing her smile, Xander asked, "Still nervous?" Grace shook her head. "Not anymore." But as she laughed, she suddenly felt something was off. Why had Xander done that back then? Just as she was about to ask, she caught his serious look, and she suddenly realized something. Her smile ceased, and a blush crept onto her face. Great, now she was even more nervous. "What ... what time is it now?" "10:00 pm. I've asked the maids to prepare a late-night snack for you when you get back."The conference room door opened, and Eric and the others filed out. Grace had been crouching for too long, and her legs were numb. So Xander helped her stand. "Congratulations, Ms. Lewis. Byte Technologies' e-commerce entry into the international market has been approved." Everyone was stunned and found it hard to believe. "It has been approved?" Grace whispered. "Yes.

"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,
