The sunlight was perfect, shrouding the two of them in a halo of light. They were like a picturesque scene by the roadside.Xander loosely wrapped his hands around her waist. "Let's not worry about the bet for now. We'll see."Benjamin's car happened to pass by at this moment, and he saw this scene. His expression turned ugly as he gritted his teeth.Larry was very concerned. "Mr. Hawkins...""I understand why Alexander gave up."Larry waited for the next sentence."At this point, even if it's not me, it won't be him either."Grace had long since found the right guy, a man who had the ability to protect her.Benjamin rubbed his forehead, never having felt so defeated in his entire life.In the private room, Shawn said, "I gave up everything, but that doesn't mean that I won't collect some debts from you.""What?""You took my place and married Grace, but you didn't treat her well, making her suffer. I'll remember this. One day, I'll make you pay."Benjamin couldn't retort b

Winter rain continued to fall. Jessica wrapped herself tightly in her coat, sitting in the car.She had been drinking heavily for several days, but today she abstained. It was a rare moment of sobriety. Her face was pale. "Do I really have to go?""Our boss said so. Your staying here will put everyone in danger. "If you get caught, your charges could add up to decades. Don't be ungrateful, Ms. Landon."It was still early, so they were the only car on the road, speeding in the rain.After some time, a black car suddenly appeared in the rearview mirror, following behind them. Jessica became alert. "We're being followed! Is it the cops?"The driver turned the steering wheel. "I'll shake them off."He was skilled, but the other party was equally skilled. After several rounds, the driver still couldn't shake off the pursuer.Instead, they were overtaken. The other car blocked their way horizontally, forcing them to come to a halt.The driver's heart sank. "How could this hap

The next day, Grace seemed a bit absent-minded.Ashley reminded her several times. "Ms. Lewis, Mr. Caleb is on the line. He couldn't reach you and called me."Grace finally snapped out of her daze and took Ashley's phone.Caleb's face appeared on the screen. "Gracie, what's going on? You haven't been answering my calls. I was so worried!""My phone ran out of battery... What's up, Caleb?" Grace simply made up an excuse."Victor is on vacation. He's coming to Pamore to see you. Let's have dinner together tonight."Grace was delighted. "I haven't seen Victor in a long time. When will he arrive? I'll book a restaurant.""I'll have someone pick him up." Caleb suspiciously stared at her face. "You look unwell. What happened?"Grace shook her head vigorously, insisting that she was fine, and hastily hung up the phone.Having once traveled to Pamore for a man whose name she didn't even know and eventually married Benjamin by a twist of fate had already angered her family. If she we

Victor stood up and opened the window for some fresh air. He was a health-conscious guy, rarely involved in smoking or drinking."Give up and change course. There are many things in this world worth persisting for."He was very rational.Grace looked at him. "But all the effort and time in the past would go up in a puff of smoke. Don't you think it's a pity?""You should be happy. If those things keep lingering in your memory, you'll keep remembering and regretting them. "Letting them become a puff of smoke allows you to completely let go, doesn't it?"Victor played with a lighter in his hand as he spoke indifferently. With his personality, he had never been torn by such ethereal things.Grace frowned, but she felt a sense of enlightenment.Victor was right. That person never appeared all these years, indicating that they were not meant to be."Anyway, we chose the paths ourselves. We took the step for a reason."Hearing this, Grace extinguished her cigarette."You really h

It was the afternoon in Frenda. The vast conference room was filled with all nine directors, along with various high-ranking executives and committee members.When Xander walked in, all eyes turned toward him. He scanned the room, noticing that Jake had already taken his seat in his usual place—on the side in the front row.Jake even greeted him with a smile from his seat.Xander took his place at the head of the table. "Aren't you supposed to be in the hospital? It seems you're perfectly fine now."Hearing that, Jake moved his bandaged wrist. "Everyone knows that I'm a workaholic. In the past few years, even when you weren't around, I never missed a single board meeting."So I'm back here even with this injury just in case you have any last-minute issues, and I can take charge."It was an insinuation of ambition, clear for all to see.Without responding, Xander flipped open a document. "I apologize for keeping you all waiting. Let's start the meeting."Suddenly, a director a

Raymond nodded, feeling somewhat relieved.He turned to Jake, who had been quietly listening. "Grace is the apple of the Lewises' eyes. She's like a half-sister to you. You'll have a chance to meet her in the future.""I know. I met her last time. She's indeed different. Xander is really lucky," Jake said with a half-smile. "It's worth it for him to give up work for her."Xander remained silent, narrowing his eyes."You should thank Jake. If he hadn't been mediating with the committee these days, they would have asked for you to be impeached."As a president, how can you leave the company without any news for a week?" Raymond scolded."Yes, I should thank Jake," Xander said without arguing. "Anyway, I left Hazel at the company to handle the work.""You're the president of this company. If you don't approve those projects and funds, would your employees dare to start working?" Raymond was genuinely angry.Jake interjected, "Dad, don't get worked up. Xander is back now. The futur

"If I had insisted, it would prove that I had set this up." Xander massaged his temples."But I think Mr. Fulton Senior is very happy with Ms. Lewis dating you," said Hazel.Xander's face darkened. He didn't express any opinions on that."He's already supporting Jake. When Jake returns from Pamore, this project will be a crucial step in his promotion. By then, there might be another director added to the Fulton Group's board."Hazel was astonished. "Is it a dead end?""He doesn't know the difference between me going to Pamore and staying in Fulton Group. As long as I'm here, I won't let him have this opportunity."It was already nighttime in Frenda when Xander left the company and went to Hestia's place.When the housekeeper opened the door and saw him, she excitedly called out, "Mr. Xander, you're back."Xander raised a finger to signal her to keep it down. He then took off his coat. "Where's my mom?""She's in the living room, having a video call with Ms. Lewis."As he walk

Upon hearing that, Hestia asked, "Are you blaming me, Xander?""I didn't mean that.""I can't help it. I hate him whenever I think about how he betrayed our marriage and had a child with another woman. "I just hate them so much that I wish they were dead. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even see him again."Hestia gritted her teeth, unable to control her trembling.Xander understood that these years of deception and compromise had been hard for Hestia. He held her hand and said wearily, "I understand. Leave it to me. I'll handle it.""I’m sorry that you can't do what you want because of me. You can't be in charge of Futurelink and can't reunite with Grace." Hestia looked at him with a sense of guilt.She knew Xander had not had an easy time in both his career and relationship these past few years.Raymond was right about something."If it's true love, we don't have to be constantly together." Getting up, Xander said, "Grace is not a petty person."Back in the bedroom, he t

"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
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 823 No Longer Under Fulton Group
"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,
