In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 68 Not So Irritating
Unlike his previously carefree self, Timothy simply smiled gently. "It looks like you don't need a handkerchief."Grace remained stone-faced. "Of course not. I wasn't crying.""I thought you would be crying your eyes out like you had last time. I even prepared two handkerchiefs." Timothy took out a second handkerchief with a twinkle in his eyes."I came prepared, didn't I?" he asked.Grace recalled that night on the roof in Darai. She couldn't believe that she had cried in front of her nemesis, so her expression wavered a little. "I wasn't crying. You remembered it wrong."Timothy didn't argue with her and simply nodded. "I must have, then." Watching Grace's unhappy expression, he wondered if she had been crying over Ben that night."Do you want me to beat him up?" Timothy asked with a seriousness he rarely showed, then rubbed his hands together. "Your wish is my command.""That's your buddy we're talking about. It's already a miracle that you didn't side with him." Grace shru

"I was busy," Grace said with a smile. Hestia had always been close to Grace's mother. After both of Grace's parents had passed away, Hestia and her husband, Raymond Fulton, had been the ones who had taken care of Grace and her siblings.It was only after Grace had turned 18 years old that Hestia stopped worrying about her and started traveling the world. She had always been a mother figure to Grace during her childhood, so Grace had always considered her family.Grace looked around and smirked at Hestia. "Aunt Hestia, where's Uncle Raymond?""Why are we talking about him?" Hestia pretended to be angry. "Don't mention that guy.""Okay." Grace tried not to laugh. Hestia and Raymond Fulton were like cats and dogs. They would always bicker when they were together but worry about each other when they weren't.When they had been younger, they had gotten divorced in the heat of an argument. But Raymond had immediately regretted it. Thus, he had begun his hard-knock life of trying

What a small world."I'm so happy you could come visit, Benjamin," Yvonne said gently. She tried to hold his hand, but he subtly dodged her."I saw some of my business partners. I'm going over to talk to them," Benjamin said in a cold voice as he walked away.Yvonne was very irked. It had been two months since she had been sent to Frenda, but Benjamin had never called her, not even once. Now that he was finally here, she had wanted to spend some quality time with him, even if it was just for the sake of their baby.After reluctantly watching Benjamin leave, she turned back. She was surprised to find Grace standing right in front of her. There was a middle-aged woman who looked pretty despite her age standing next to Grace. With a smile, Yvonne tried to make her belly even more obvious and walked over as if Grace were the mistress, not her."Why do I keep bumping into you everywhere I go?" Yvonne asked.Grace didn't even look at her. "That's my line."Yvonne gritted her teeth

"I said, apologize!""In your dreams!" Yvonne still wasn't scared. "I'm the daughter of a family that's actually rich and powerful. Apologizing to an old lady like you? You must be crazy!"Hestia seized Yvonne's collar and slapped her again. "The insolence!" Yvonne had pissed her off so much that Hestia wanted to slap her a third time, but the former dodged her hand.Grace discreetly gave Hestia a thumbs-up and whispered to her, "Nice one, Aunt Hestia.""Of course. I can take care of trash like her quickly enough, can't I?" Hestia smiled back. "All you have to do is stand back when I'm around."Grace felt like she was loved unconditionally, seeing how Hestia had defended her, and her gaze was filled with adoration.Now, this was what family was supposed to be like. She didn't need to curry favor by trading gifts for affection, and they would stand up for her even if she hadn't done anything for them.Meanwhile, the slap had been so forceful that Yvonne needed to lean on a near

Yvonne had never been yelled at this loudly before. She felt so humiliated that her lips trembled. However, she still stood tall.She refused to bow her precious head in front of someone, especially when that person was Grace. It was her fault that Yvonne was stuck in Frenda and not Pamore in the first place.Yvonne was still in that awkward situation when she spotted Benjamin coming over. A plan formed in her head, so she walked over to Grace and only stopped when they were inches apart.Grace looked at Yvonne wearily. "What now?"Yvonne had a twinkle in her eye that suggested the ruthlessness of someone who was about to take their enemy down with them. "You drove me to this, Grace," she scoffed.Then, with a loud scream, she abruptly fell over and crashed into a nearby vase. As the huge, three-foot-tall vase clattered to the ground, she bumped her head on a pillar before passing out.Grace looked on emotionlessly. It was the same old trick, from the same old person. As B

"Then go home for a day or two, and return immediately after the anniversary." Because of Danielle and Alexander, Benjamin had always had endless patience with Yvonne. This time was no exception.Yvonne put a hand on her belly, but her expression became more and more cunning. This time, she needed to do whatever it took to stay in Pamore. She didn't want to stay in this cursed place for a moment longer. She would like to see how Grace was supposed to seduce her man if she were dead.Meanwhile, after Grace had chased them out, her mood improved, and she spent a while talking with Hestia about her travels.When the exhibition ended, Hestia called the mall to shut the place down so that the staff could dedicate themselves to serving her and Grace.By the time they had finally finished shopping and got home, it had been hours. Grace collapsed onto the couch. "You really are the woman who traveled the Malakkan Strait. Your physical endurance is superb. I am in awe," she babbled.

When Grace got to the stadium, Caleb's agent was already waiting at the entrance. After tossing her car keys to him, she walked to the VVIP seat Caleb had reserved for her.That seat was just a step away from the actual stage, and she could see blue placards all over the stadium. It was Caleb's signature color, and all the placards had his stage name on them—Simon.As the lights dimmed, the fans waved their blue glowsticks, turning the stadium into a sea of blue. The pounding music blasted its way into Grace's heart. When the backup dancers all started dancing in sync, she spotted Caleb immediately.After an upbeat song, Caleb ended with a pose in the center of the stage, panting while the spotlight focused on him. In that moment, he was the king of music.The fans went wild, screaming declarations of love. "Simon! We love you!""I'm not marrying anyone else!"When Caleb spotted Grace, a smile graced his charming face.The cameras immediately projected that onto the big sc

"Drive, Gracie!" Grace hit the pedal to the metal, and in a flash, the silver sports car disappeared from view. On the way, Caleb kept scrolling through social media on his phone.Every now and then, he showed Grace something he had found."Look, some of them think you're my childhood friend turned lover.""And this one says we met in Mardovia before falling in love at first sight.""This one's even more ridiculous. It says Mom had arranged our engagement since birth."Grace shook her head, speechless. "The internet sure has some crazy theories.""Oh, and—""And what?""And there's people insulting you …"Grace shot Caleb a murderous glare. "I want to punch you!"The sports car sped on through the night. However, a dump truck suddenly switched lanes and veered in Grace's direction quickly, showing no signs of stopping.Grace sensed something was wrong and tried to steer out of harm's way, but it was too late. There was a flash of white, and then—All the hairs on Grace's

"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
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 828 Keeping His Name In Prayers
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

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,
