In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 577 His Name Is Shawn
The housekeeper looked confused as she waited for Luke's answer.Grace had sharp eyes and caught a man's figure appear on the balcony upstairs. "Sir, I'm here to see you."The man frowned. It seemed as if he had planned to hide. But since she had discovered him, he was forced to face them."Let them in, Martha."The villa's interior had a vintage style, and its garden had many plants and flowers. The man came downstairs. He was about six feet tall and wore a mask and a hat. He looked like a celebrity.Grace gestured for Luke to put the gifts down. "Please accept these gifts. It's not an extravagant one. It's just for your health."The man glanced at it. Every one of the gifts she had given him cost more than a thousand dollars, yet she had said that they weren't expensive at all."You shouldn't have. I don't need this."Grace felt rather awkward when she saw that the man had no intention of inviting her to sit down. "You saved me, and these gifts are only a simple expression

Grace took out a post-it from her bag and wrote down a string of numbers. "This is my number. Call me when you get there, and I'll arrange for a staff member to bring you in."She stuffed it into Shawn's hand briskly.He was about to speak when Luke rushed in from outside and whispered a few words in Grace's ear. Her expression changed at once."Really?"Luke nodded vigorously. "We have to hurry back to the office."Grace stood up. "I'm sorry, something urgent has come up. I need to leave.""Okay."She and Luke got in the car and sped off. Martha closed the door, came back, and said tentatively, "We rarely have guests here. This lady was very energetic.""Don't tell anyone that she came here."Shawn gripped the post-it tightly in his hand, but he didn't throw it into the trash can.When Grace returned to Amirate Corporation, it was already dark, and the conference room was brightly lit.She pushed the door open and saw the headlines that had been printed out and stuck all ov

Grace was surprised. "I couldn't tell."Caleb smiled bitterly. "Of course you couldn't. I wasn't even sure about what I wanted."He still remembered how things had been when he had lived at Lewis Residence. On the outside, he had always been energetic and optimistic, and everyone liked him. But the truth was that he had always felt like he was walking on eggshells because he was adopted.On one of his birthdays, Harold had given him the exact same present as the previous year. Caleb had suppressed his disappointment and exclaimed that he really liked it. He had even given Harold a big hug, and everyone had been happy.Lydia had been a guest there too. When the party had ended, she had given her gift to Caleb and said softly, "I know that you didn't really like that gift. I also know why you didn't say anything. "Happy birthday. I hope that you will be able to express your emotions honestly in the future."Caleb had been stunned. Then he had watched Lydia's slender, obstinate f

At that moment, Xander was at a social gathering. He had called Grace while he had stepped out for a smoke. He looked intently at the people passing by. Their blurred figures moved swiftly past him like a scene from a movie."I haven't booked my ticket yet, but I will definitely be there."Saturdays were work days in Frenda, and there was a project that he needed to attend to personally that day. It was extremely important, and he didn't know what time it would end. Grace assented lightly. "Do you miss me?"Grace felt shy when she heard his sweet words. "Miss you? It's only been half a month since we last met. I'm not that eager.""I guess I'm too confident, then."There was a short silence on the phone. Then, Grace said in a small voice, "It's not that I don't miss you."Of course, she couldn't see the huge smile that appeared on Xander's face. He could already imagine her expression. It must be adorable and mellow."I'll bring a gift for you when I come back.""I get a

"The more mysterious she makes things out to be, the more suspense she leaves the crowd in. Right now, the public has stopped focusing on his relationship. Instead, they're now speculating on whether or not he'll appear. Don't you think that this is very sophisticated marketing?"It finally dawned on Timothy. "Oh my! She knows that with Caleb's popularity, he will absolutely have to say something to the fans. But if he does, he can't just casually make a statement. They have to maximize the profits."Damn. She's a born businesswoman."Benjamin remained expressionless when he heard this. In truth, he felt conflicted. The skills she had shown had proven that she wouldn't have been able to reach her full potential at Hawkins Group.Timothy only stayed for a while before he remembered he had to pick his girlfriend up for lunch. Larry entered Benjamin's office. He lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Hawkins, I have news about the person you told me to investigate."Benjamin looked

"Mr. Baxter, I believe I've shown enough sincerity. Think about who should get Aether Group's project in Pamore again."As one chess piece fell, the winner was determined.Bobby dropped two white pieces and conceded. "Your chess skills are comparable to a national master's, Mr. Fulton. I admit defeat.""My plane is in three hours. If you make up your mind, we can return to Pamore together."Bobby was surprised for a moment. "You're also leaving?"Xander didn't say a word and started packing up the chessboard.Bobby realized he had overstepped and stood up to make a call.Meanwhile, Xander got a message from Grace. "Xander, I'm heading to the venue now. What are you doing?""Working.""Why isn't it over yet?" She added an emoticon, hinting at her disappointment.Xander smiled, typing, "Almost done." But before he could send it, he got a call from Hazel. She said, "Aether Group is handing their project to us." Xander gripped his phone, watching Bobby return to his line of s

Bobby wiped his sweat. "It seems you have someone you want to impress, Mr. Fulton."At Xander's age, having a woman and spending money to please her was normal. However, spending 150 million dollars on a woman was shocking. Besides having a substantial family background, it indicated that the woman's status was extraordinary.After all, women were graded in men's eyes.Xander didn't respond. "Put it away."Hazel closed the box. Seeing Xander stand up, she helped him put on his coat. "The plane ticket has been booked. We'll take off in an hour, and we should land in Pamore around 10:00 pm."10:00 pm … The gala would end by 11:00 pm, which was still manageable."Let's go."Bobby followed behind Xander, lost in thought.…In Pamore, Grace was backstage, and the audience arrived at the venue. She received a message from Xander letting her know that he was boarding the flight. "What makes you so happy, Ms. Lewis?" Matthew asked. Benjamin stood behind him.Grace's smile instant

Grace looked at Shawn. He was wearing a white high-neck sweater, a long coat, a cap, and a mask. The outfit added a touch of gentleness to him."Mr. Griffin, are you afraid of the cold?"Shawn looked straight ahead. "Very much."Grace nodded in understanding.There was a stretch of road leading to the venue's entrance. Grace didn't know what to say. Shawn saw through her and asked, "Do you feel awkward to see me?""No. I just thought you wouldn't come to such a noisy occasion. It's a bit unexpected.""I used to like lively events.""I couldn't tell. People who open teahouses usually like quiet, right?""You drink tea too. Do you like quiet?"Grace buried her face in her scarf and smiled awkwardly. "No, I don't like quiet. I also like lively events."Shawn smiled beneath the mask. "Do you think I'm old?""Of course not."Even though she hadn't seen his face, his eyes were bright, and he seemed energetic. He didn't seem old at all."Then, why do you always call me Mr. Griffi

"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

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,
