Chapter 311 She Spoke to You

Emily's face fell when she heard that. "What did you say?" Seeing her panicked expression, Yvonne laughed maliciously. Finally, the day she had been waiting for had arrived. "You don't believe it? But it's true. Grace is as good as dead in Dunhill, and I believe this news will reach here soon." Emily was furious now. She grabbed a broom and swung it at Yvonne. "You bitch! You're nothing but a homewrecker, or trash in the garbage dump! How dare you spout nonsense here? Watch me beat you to death!"​​Yvonne quickly dodged and jeered, "Hahaha! You can keep cursing me!" "Curse me all you want. Grace won't come back to life. Her body might not even be returned in one piece. "I advise you to prepare for her funeral. Pray hard, and she might bless you in the afterlife." Emily remained silent, and her eyes turned red. Then, she chased after Yvonne and gave her a hard slap on the face. However, Yvonne felt no pain as she continued to laugh heartily. Her bodyguards quickly i

Chapter 312 Meeting Max

Emily hummed and said, "That vile woman is becoming more and more arrogant." Grace tried to calm her down. "Let her gloat some more. Her time will come. I'll settle the score between her and me." There was a glint in Grace's eyes. After she hung up, Luke walked in. "Ms. Lewis, we've contacted Max. He has invited us to meet at Panola Manor tomorrow at 8 pm." A sly smile appeared on Grace's lips. "Tell him we'll be sure to arrive on time." Luke reminded her, "Should we inform the headquarters in Frenda and arrange for some men as backup?""There's no need. Bring our local security personnel. We're meeting him out in the open. This is a lawful society. They won't do anything foolish." "Yes, Ms. Lewis." After Luke left, Grace looked out of the window, overlooking the entire city. She tapped rhythmically on the desk as if she were calculating something.… The next evening, a group of bodyguards waited at the entrance of Amirate Corporation at 7:00 pm. Grace didn't tell

Chapter 313 Wolf In Sheep's Clothing

Max was unaware of this matter, so he asked in confusion, "Explain what?" Grace smiled calmly and replied, "Now that things have come to this point, there's no need for you to play dumb." Max's face immediately darkened, and he turned to Shane. "What happened? What did you do to offend Ms. Lewis? Tell me the truth." Shane's expression turned dark, and he leaned in to whisper something. Upon hearing it, Max slammed the table, exclaiming, "You reckless idiot!"Startled, Shane quickly tried to appease him. "Max, don't be mad. It was a moment of impulse." Max tried to calm himself down and stay level-headed before Grace. Shane had been with him for many years. He was Max's right-hand man. It seemed unlikely that he would dispose of Shane just for Grace. So he smiled apologetically and said, "Ms. Lewis, perhaps there's a misunderstanding here?" Grace had a rough idea of what was happening and responded, "Max, I almost lost my life, and you're telling me that it's a misunder

Chapter 314 Chess Is a Gamble

"Ms. Lewis, what do you think?" Grace could guess Max's intention, but she made herself clear. "Max, putting chess aside, you have to give me an explanation." Max reset all the chess pieces. While rearranging the pieces, he spoke calmly, "Of course. Let's use this game to determine the winner. "If you win, you can take Shane away, and I won't say another word. If you lose, we'll forget anything happened, and we can put this in the past." The general idea was that the chess game was like a gamble. Upon hearing Max's words, Shane's expression relaxed a bit. He knew Max was protecting him. After all, Max's chess skills were second to none in Pamore. Grace had no chance of winning against him. "So, Ms. Lewis, what do you say?" Shane couldn't help but jest, knowing that if Grace agreed, she would undoubtedly lose.Grace shook her head. Max thought she was backing out. His expression darkened, but to his surprise, Grace added, "The stakes seem a bit too small for this ga

Chapter 315 Victory and Defeat

Shane watched from aside and whispered, "Max, shall we take a break?" Max quickly shushed him. "Silence while watching chess. Don't you understand such a simple rule?" Shane kept quiet and looked toward Grace. She remained calm without faltering throughout. Even though this chess game involved her marriage, she wasn't flustered. Shane sneered, thinking Grace was putting up an act. "Hey, no, you can't take my knight!" Max quickly spoke up, interrupting Grace's move, "I made a mistake."As he spoke, he returned the piece and sneered, "It's all because of Shane. He distracted me and messed up my thinking. Ms. Lewis, can I redo my move?" Grace didn't speak, but she looked at him incredulously. Max looked a bit uneasy. He should understand such a basic rule after playing chess for so many years. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, you can take it!"So, he took his piece off the board, and the evenly matched game now clearly favored Grace. Beads of sweat appeared on M

Chapter 316 She's The Boss

Seeing this, the people around also yelled in unison, "Boss!" Shane was unwilling to accept reality as he watched the scene unfold. He couldn't believe that everyone was acknowledging Grace as their leader. It would be hard for him to survive in the future. "Shane, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and beg Ms. Lewis to let you off!" Max scolded.But Shane wouldn't yield easily. However, he had no choice. After some thought, he reluctantly kneeled to grovel. Grace was also stunned. She hadn't expected Max to be so influential. It was impressive indeed. "Okay! Thank you, all of you." Max quickly ordered his men to stand in line. Then, he approached Grace compliantly and said, "Ms. Lewis, from now on, we're all under your command. It's up to you to handle what Shane did. You can do whatever you want to him." Grace played with her fingers and said, "I'm not interested in his life, but I want him to do something for me." Shane was relieved to hear this. At lea

Chapter 317 Now You Know

Grace nodded obediently and said, "Don't worry, Xander, I understand." "Well, now that Max is willing to be under your command, things will be much easier for you in Pamore in the future." Grace hadn't anticipated this. The way she saw it, she had just reluctantly taken on another follower. Little did she know that this small act today had already caused a huge stir in the organized crime circle of Pamore.… Yvonne was completely unaware of what had happened. At this moment, she was sitting in the VIP room of the hotel, fixing herself up. After dressing up, she smiled at herself in the mirror. Just then, there was a knock, and Yvonne brightened up, quickly opening the door. "Darling, you finally came." The door opened.She was familiar with Shane, but unlike before, he was accompanied by several burly men today. Yvonne's face fell, and she asked, "Shane, why are you here with so many people today?" Shane looked serious. He didn't answer her question. Instead, he w

Chapter 318 Benjamin Interferes

No matter how much Yvonne pleaded, Shane remained firm. In the end, he even pushed her away. Shane ordered the people at the door, "Someone, tie her up for me." However, no one came in. Shane frowned in confusion and walked to the door. "I told you to come in and tie her up. Didn't you hear …" Before he could finish speaking, he was met with an intense gaze. The man was very domineering, making Shane feel pressured. "Mr. Hawkins, why are you here?" Benjamin didn't answer him and strode in. When Yvonne saw Benjamin, it was as if she had grabbed onto a lifeline. She hurriedly rushed over. "Benjamin, you're here? Please save me!"Benjamin stopped in his tracks. He looked down at her. There was no pity in his eyes, only disgust. "Mr. Hawkins, you didn't come here for her, did you?" Shane asked, and Yvonne was filled with joy. "Benjamin, take me away! Please take me away! I promise to obey you in the future, and I won't do anything to Grace again." Benjamin snort

Chapter 319 Threatening Him

Yvonne continued, "It's not hard if you want me to tell the truth. But you have to promise me to send me away from Pamore and give me a large sum of money, enough for the rest of my life." "Okay." His answer surprised Yvonne. She had never expected Benjamin to go to such lengths for Grace. "Benjamin, why regret it now?" "You don't have to waste your time. My patience is limited." Yvonne shook her head slightly. "Benjamin, I'm not stupid! I know you won't let me leave if I tell you now. Unless … you can personally help me leave. Once I'm out, I'll tell you the truth." Benjamin remained silent and looked at her in disgust. "No one has ever attempted to threaten me."With that, he ignored the surprised look on Yvonne's face and ordered the bodyguards to come in. "Hand her over to Shane. We've already exceeded the two-hour time limit." Yvonne panicked, realizing that Benjamin wasn't joking. "No, Benjamin, I ... I ..." Benjamin didn't respond, but the bodyguard reache

Chapter 320 It's Pointless

Grace lowered her gaze and remained silent. Benjamin continued, "I know Yvonne has done a lot to hurt you, and she will face the consequences. You must be curious about why I got her out of prison, but it's all for today." Upon hearing this, Grace looked up at Benjamin. "Mr. Hawkins, thank you for everything you've done, but it's pointless." Benjamin panicked and exclaimed, "No, Grace! How can it be pointless?" Grace didn't answer him, but deep down, she knew. Even if nothing had happened between Benjamin and Yvonne, nothing could fix the damage he had done to her. The plane crash had opened her eyes to who Benjamin truly was. She now knew not to make the same mistakes.So, she continued, "Mr. Hawkins, happiness can't be forced. Words can't heal a wounded heart. I've let go of our relationship. Please don't waste more time on me." Once Grace finished speaking, she turned away without hesitation. Benjamin tried to reach out to her, but he couldn't even grab her clothes.
