In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 613 Hickeys
Grace stayed at Summitview Manor for two days straight. Xander sent her to and from work himself. Some staff members managed to catch a photo of the two of them walking together. They looked perfect together. After Black Friday was over, the entire industry knew that Amirate had won an enormous victory. Added to the relentless promotion through Zoey's finance magazine, Grace was at the top of her game. They clamored for Grace to treat them to dinner. Grace had no choice. She showed the conversation to Xander, who smiled and made a reservation at a Pamore restaurant, which charged at least ten thousand per person. Before they arrived, Grace started laughing her head off at her phone. Xander leaned over to look at the conversation, but she dodged before he could see anything. "Are you checking up on me?""Can't I?""You can check any of my conversations with men, but you're not allowed to look at any of my conversations with my girls." The chat history of their group

Grace lifted her glass and smiled. "Do you have proof?""I haven't found proof yet.""You will." Grace looked at Lydia. "Where's Caleb?""He's got a new song, so he's in the recording studio."After they had gone public with their romance, Caleb had taken charge and made sure that Lydia's identity was not revealed. The only thing he could do in the ensuing uproar was to show everyone his skills.The challenge would be good for him. Xander listened to them talk and made sure to fill up Grace's plate from time to time. He had excellent table manners."Mr. Fulton, I'd like to make a toast to you. Gracie doesn't have a good temper, so please be more understanding of her."Zoey lifted up her glass. She spoke with the confidence of someone who was like family to Grace. "We're friends. You don't need to stand on formalities." Xander lowered his glass and looked at Grace. "She has a pretty good temper."Everyone immediately started teasing them. Grace blushed. "Mr. Fulton

Everyone enjoyed the meal thoroughly. Grace watched her friends leave. She hung on Xander's arm as they stood beside the car. "Did you smoke?"There was a faint whiff of smoke on his person. It wasn't strong. In fact, it smelled rather nice. "Just one." Xander rearranged her scarf for her. "I met Benjamin just now."Her eyes widened slightly in surprise. "What did you guys talk about?""He said that for the past three years, this restaurant has been booked by Hawkins Group. He said that you used to come here often."Xander's tone was measured, but he dragged out his words on purpose. It made Grace rather uncomfortable. Grace looked past him and saw Benjamin, who happened to be walking out. She looked away. "That's true. I used to meet clients here for him when I was his secretary, but I'd forgotten about it."She'd been so busy with Amirate for the past year and had completely forgotten about such a minor detail. When Grace looked up at Xander, there was a pleading l

It had only been a couple of days since they last met, but Samuel had undergone a huge transformation. He was dressed shabbily and hadn't shaved. His beer belly added to the effect, making him look completely down and out. The secretary couldn't believe his eyes when he came to pick him up. "When did you get out?" Samuel glared at the secretary and then kicked him. "Why didn't you come and rescue me after you got out? Ingrate!"The secretary dodged his kicks, wailing, "Mr. Walker, I only just got out! I came to bail you out the moment I was released!"Samuel's kick didn't land, and he plopped onto the floor. He panted as he looked at the road. "Where's my car?""I… your assets have all been taken by the loan sharks. I came here by public transport…"Samuel was aghast. "It's all gone?""... it's a-all gone." The secretary did not dare to look at him. "I still have a house…""Perhaps you've forgotten this, but you mortgaged your house for cash to invest in the Eastwood co

"Amirate is at the top of its game, and its stock is worth a lot of money, you know that. "As long as I sell it at a high price, I'll have money!""Gentlemen, please give me some time!"The men looked at each other. They decided to believe Samuel."I'll give you one day. If you can't pay, then you're dead!"The crowd of men moved off. The secretary hurriedly closed the door. "Mr. Walker, were you telling the truth? Those are Amirate's shares!"Samuel sat on the floor and looked down. There was the sharp smell of urine, and he turned red with embarrassment. "What do you think? Do you think that I'd be able to go back to Amirate now? Grace wants my life even more than those people!"Samuel was thinking clearly. "What about Jessica?""I can't reach her…""Bitch!"They were at Summitview Manor. "The moment Mr. Walker was released, all the shares for Amirate were put on sale," Luke reported. "Ten percent in total."Grace didn't even look at it. "Buy them all.""He's a

Samuel had reached a dead end. He rushed toward Grace and tried to strangle her but was stopped in time by Luke."Do you want to bear another charge, Director Walker?"Grace stood behind Luke, coldly watching Samuel struggle. She then made a call. "Officer, you can come up now."Shortly after, Angus and other police officers quickly entered and handcuffed Samuel. "You're suspected of intentional harm, illegal detention, invasion of privacy, and other charges. You're now under arrest."Samuel was almost dragged away. "Officers, this is a misunderstanding! She's inducing me to make a confession! It doesn't count!""Our conversation might not count, but what your assistant said might have some credibility, right?"Samuel looked at Josh at the door in disbelief. "You? It's you!""Director Walker... I didn't want to, but if I don't speak, I'll end up in jail, too.""You...!""He told me that the revelation of Caleb's relationship was your plan. Today, I'm returning everything

"As the end of the year approaches, major corporations have disclosed their financial reports for the year. Among them, the data from Amirate Corporation is particularly remarkable."We can see that several projects collaborated on by Amirate Corporation have brought them tremendous profits, exceeding their previous year's profit by 40%. Now, let's take a look..."In a dim room, Jessica curled up on a damp and cold sofa, drinking wine one gulp after another.As she glanced at the TV, she suddenly threw the bottle in her hand fiercely, smashing the screen. The host's face became distorted at once."You bitch!" Jessica gasped heavily.Suddenly, the door was pushed open. Faced with the strong smell of alcohol, the person instinctively covered their nose. With steady steps, they walked over to her and picked up the fallen bottle from the floor."No matter what, you're the only daughter of the Quine family out here. Mr. Quine Senior would be heartbroken to see that you've fallen

Jessica remained silent. After a moment, she grabbed Benjamin's hand."If he's back, that's another reason for you to help me get out of Pamore. Otherwise, if Grace finds out... Don't you love her? Aren't you afraid?"Benjamin's expression was unexpectedly calm. He grabbed Jessica's hand and shook it off. "Isn't Pamore a good place?""What do you mean?""Instead of hiding and running around, why not let Alexander leave Pamore? Isn't that better?"Jessica frowned, looking at him incredulously. "How is that possible? He works for the government! And even if he leaves, his people won't let me go.""My power in Pamore is enough to hide you." Benjamin had his own considerations. "There's only one way to get Alexander out.""What?""Create a more serious case related to him."Benjamin sat down. "I need to know why Brodie helped you."Jessica didn't want to say, but at this critical moment, she had no other choices."Can I trust you, Benjamin?"At her words, he smiled and shru

"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,
