Grace and Timothy exchanged glances, both of them thinking the same thing. When Samuel saw this, he rushed out without hesitating. He grabbed Zane and pushed him in front of Grace. "You asshole, say it! Was it you? How could you frame Mr. Donegan for corruption and accepting bribes? You have some nerve!"Zane panicked. He crawled in front of Grace and begged for mercy. "Ms. Lewis, please have mercy on me! I lost my senses and made a mistake. I didn't do it on purpose!"Grace looked down at him, completely unmoved. Zane turned to beg Timothy, who was beside her. "Mr. Donegan, I beg you, please let me go … I will never do it again."Timothy squatted down slowly, his lips curving in a lethal smile. "It's not impossible to have mercy on you, but you must tell me who ordered you to do this."Zane looked up timidly at Samuel, who was standing beside them, and immediately looked down again. He took all the blame upon himself. "No one ordered me to do it. I was jealous of Mr.

"Mr. Ziegler, what's on the work schedule for today?"Luke was half a step behind Grace as he reported her schedule. "There's an international video conference at 10:00 am. At 2:00 pm, you have an appointment with Mr. Barnes to discuss the project, and tonight at 7:00 pm, there's Neo Group's chairman and his wife's anniversary party—""Okay, I've got it."As soon as she finished, Grace's phone rang from her pocket. "Hello, babe. Are you busy?"Emily's voice traveled from the other end of the line. "The client I told you about last time came to the boutique today. It's the one who spent three million dollars to design a dress."The client asked for you specifically. Do you think you would have some time to come over?"Grace pushed the door open to her office and walked in. "When?""I've already asked her. Any time before 12:00 pm will be fine.""Alright, I've got it."Emily hung up and took a cup of coffee over to the client. "Ms. Gold, please wait a moment. Our designer will

"You were the one who designed the main outfit for the Pamore fashion show, right? It was excellent. I heard many stories about you in Palisia."As she spoke, she held out her hand to Grace. "Hello, I'm Helena Gold.""Nice to meet you, Ms. Gold. Thank you for sticking up for me just now. If you come to our shop to choose clothes in the future, I'll give you a 20% discount every time."Helena smiled and said teasingly, "I just spoke according to my conscience, but it looks like I gained some benefits.""Are you here to commission a custom-made haute couture gown?" Grace asked. There was a hint of a smile in Helena's eyes, and she said, "I want a haute couture gown with a floral theme for an event. The first person I thought of was you. How about it? Do you have time to customize it for me?""Of course. Let me take your measurements right now." Grace took Helena's measurements, and the two of them had a delightful conversation. Before she left, Helena gave Grace a business card.

Xander's expression was calm as he handed the menu over. "That's it! We'll order again if needed."When the waiter had left, Grace finally put down her glass and said, "Xander, how did you know that I don't eat onions or mushrooms?"Even Benjamin, who had been married to her for three years, knew nothing about this. How did Xander know her so well? Xander looked intensely at her and finally said, "Your older brother told me.""Aaron?"Xander nodded, but didn't say that he knew about her preferences because of how closely he had observed her. Grace didn't doubt him. "Grace, is that really you?" A sudden voice made Grace raise her eyebrows. The next second, Ava had already appeared in front of her. Her gossipy eyes looked greedily at Grace and Xander with no regard for anything else. As Benjamin's aunt, she had never liked Grace. She had just never expected Grace to get together with such an impressive man after leaving the Hawkins family. "What kind of relationship do

Little Xander had felt warm and fuzzy at the sound of her calling his name. He had taken the job of leading her seriously and had taken her riding in the garden. Little Grace's eyes had flickered from side to side as she asked a series of questions. "Xander, why doesn't the pony talk?""Why is the sky blue?""Why do birds fly?""Why are there boys and girls?"Little Grace had had an unending supply of questions, but little Xander hadn't been impatient at all. He had answered every question for her patiently. "Wow, Xander, you're so great! You know everything!"Little Grace had looked at him with adoration, as if there were pink stars shooting out of her eyes. Little Xander had felt extremely satisfied by that.This little sister was so adorable!"Gracie, could you just be my little sister?"Little Grace had shaken her head at that. "No!" As she spoke, she began counting on her fingers very seriously. "I have three brothers at home … and if I add you, I'll have four olde
