In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 804: A Heart-to-Heart With Grace
Jake ignored her and pressed on, "Do you really have feelings?""Is it so unbelievable?" Grace raised an eyebrow. "My first job after graduation was opening a retail store. Although it was also busy and tiring, at least I was my own boss. Later, I joined Hawkins Group and spent the hardest years there. I learned a lot."Now that the boss has fallen, can't I feel regret?"Without those years at Hawkins Group, she wouldn't have thrived at Amirate.Hawkins Group should have had better development, but those leading it did not do well. Benjamin deserved to die. He even failed his former self.Jake was amused. He put out his cigarette, scoffing lowly."What are you laughing at?""Benjamin is finished. I think his original plan was to frame you and get you imprisoned, then have his backers bail him out. But now, they can't save themselves either. He's trapped by his own scheme."Jake crossed his legs, picking up a banana from the table and eating it with relish."He's stupid, but yo
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 805: She Actually Influences His Emotions
"He was the favored child. Everything he learned he understood immediately, while I had to exert ten times the effort to catch up. "In college, he studied computer science, and I did the same. The second year, when he realized I was closely following him, he resolutely switched majors, not wanting any contact with me."Jake sneered as he fiddled with a lighter in his hand, constantly flicking it on and off."I've heard that programming was his hobby, but he never touched it again afterward. He was determined to that extent just to shake me off. The moment I realized it, I felt like a complete clown."Grace clenched her hands. Without Jake's narrative, she wouldn't have known that Xander had once studied programming.No wonder he could crack Victor's firewall.Jake glanced at Grace after receiving no response.She was distracted, most likely because Xander was mentioned. He suddenly felt angry and threw the lighter aside."You asked me if I have feelings. I can't say for sure,"
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 806: Xander is Out
Hestia sat across from Xander. "How can you be sure that the people behind Benjamin are those two?"This move could almost be described as a fatal blow. Although the investigation is still ongoing, the downfall of the Lewis family and their affiliates seemed all but confirmed. Winston had zero tolerance for such matters."It's not hard to find out. Just look into which departments Hawkins Group has had the deepest dealings with over the years, and where there have been more unreasonable collaborations."Xander handed his mother a cup of hot water. "You don't have to come back anymore."Hestia didn't accept it and instead stared at him. "You're being investigated. Grace is being investigated. How can I leave Pamore peacefully? Even if you don't tell her, you should at least inform me."Xander had grown noticeably thinner, his features more defined. As a mature, clean-cut, and wealthy man, countless women would throw themselves at him."I thought that if my mother appeared to be ve
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 807: Statement Released at Dawn
Before leaving, Hestia asked Xander, "When do you plan to make an appearance? Not to mention losing Fulton Group, you still have Futurelink. The outside world is buzzing, and it's not good for your reputation."Everyone thought he hadn't come out yet and said Xander had become a discarded piece that was unable to return to the business world.Hazel was helping Hestia put on her coat. "Mr. Fulton has his plans. We are waiting for the official statement."This had been communicated by Winston, and Dexter was handling it, but Xander meant to wait a bit longer.They had to wait until his reputation was worse and the crisis was deeper.After Hestia left, Hazel advised, "Although you control Futurelink, without Fulton Group's support, the shareholders have grievances against you. Plus, there are recent deals that need your personal handling, so we can't wait any longer."There was still no news from Winston on when it would be handled. "How long is the deadline?" Xander asked."No mor
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 808: His Board Position Was Revoked
He rarely wore formal suits. Most of the time, his attire was casual—white shirt, black pants, with few other colors, exuding both warmth and aloofness.Today, perhaps due to the formal occasion, he donned a well-tailored custom suit that perfectly accentuated his tall and lean figure.The partner shook hands with him, and he responded with a slight smile. The camera captured his profile—distinct and angular. Today, his demeanor was exceptionally imposing.Grace stared at the man in the video, her heart skipping a beat. The last time she saw him was through a photo from Zoey. Today, after she saw him in person, he indeed looked much thinner.The livestream had already reached its midpoint. Xander had signed the cooperation agreement with the partner and was now cutting the ribbon on stage. Many employees were gathered below, looking quite excited.This livestream was highly publicized. The board member of Futurelink being exonerated naturally needed to be widely broadcasted to enh
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 809: Mrs. Jarvis Wants to See Her
He was referring to their last meeting, which should not have been discovered.The secretary didn't dare to speak rashly."What's Madam's schedule for today?"In their social class, the roles of husband and wife were implicitly understood—the husband manages external affairs while the wife takes care of family matters and social relationships. This was especially true for someone like his wife.Every circle has its own hierarchy. She belonged to the top tier, addressed as "Madam", surrounded by several second-tier women referred to as "Ladies", with everyone fawning over her.However, due to Winston's extraordinary status, there were occasions when he needed to attend events with his wife. Over time, she gained positions in various foundations and associations."Today, there’s a visit in Pamore. Madam has gone there.""Last time, Hestia mentioned that it was my student who found her, which made her decide to meet me. Who was that student?"The secretary thought for a moment. In
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 810 Don't Want to See Him
"Apologize for what? It's unnecessary. Mr. Fulton, I can't accept your apology. Take it back."She tried to break free from his strong grip, but her strength was no match for his, and she couldn't escape his embrace.Her packed luggage was nearby. Xander glanced at it and ran his hand through her long hair. "You're leaving. Where are you planning to go?" he asked knowingly. Wherever she went, it wouldn't be to find him."I'm not homeless. I still have work to handle, business trips, and social engagements. I can go anywhere. Isn't managing Futurelink enough for Mr. Fulton? Do you need to manage my life too?"Grace suppressed her anger and was still struggling to break free."Let go of me. You smell terrible."Hearing these words made him loosen his grip. Grace successfully escaped, turned away, and refused to look at him.Xander realized he had a perfume scent on him. He unbuttoned his shirt, took off his jacket, and threw it aside."I originally planned to keep my mother in th
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 811 Jake's Lighter
Her tone was full of irritation and impatience, devoid of any former warmth.Xander had an unpleasant expression, but he remained patient. "Hazel mentioned that you're leaving today. I'll take you there.""That's a lot of trouble for Mr. Fulton to come straight from a livestream to pick me up. Is it worth it? Unlike you, who has a clarification statement to back you up, my reputation almost got damaged."Grace was furious. Her shoulders were trembling and her words dripped with sarcasm."Grace." Xander's voice deepened. His patience was nearing its limit.Just then, the doorbell rang. A staff member said, "Ms. Lewis, your clothes have arrived."Xander looked up and stepped aside. Grace took a deep breath and reluctantly headed to the door. She opened it just a crack and took the clothes."You need to be at Emblem Garden by seven at the latest. Don't forget, Ms. Lewis. I'll have someone take you there."Grace said nothing in response.A hand came from behind, closing the door f
