Chapter 331 The Tables Turn

"Don't listen to her nonsense. It's all fake." Kimberly hurriedly defended herself. At this moment, Timothy rushed over. He walked straight up to Grace with a concerned expression. "Are you okay, Milady?" Grace shrugged, unperturbed. "I'm fine." However, Timothy had heard the recording and immediately said, "Ms. Lewis is a VIP I invited. Do you think you can casually slander her?" Everyone fell silent at Timothy's words, and the crowd dispersed awkwardly. Shirley was dumbfounded. She was confused to see Timothy being so attentive and protective of Grace. She blinked and quickly approached with a smile."Mr. Donegan, I'm Shirley from Wonderful Electronics. It's a pleasure to meet you." Shirley tried to flatter him and make a good impression, but Timothy ignored her completely. Instead, he turned to Kimberly beside her. "Did you just slander Grace?" Kimberly was bewildered, not having fully grasped the situation yet. Timothy immediately ordered the security, "Throw

Chapter 332 What Do You Want

"Ms. Lewis, I work in foreign trading, and I hope to have the opportunity to work with you in the future." "Our company mainly operates in logistics. We hope you can provide us with more guidance in the future." Facing the crowd's admiration, Grace smiled and nodded politely, maintaining a confident attitude and gaining a lot of positive impressions. Many businesses even volunteered to collaborate with Grace. Seizing this opportunity, Grace secured several significant deals for the Amirate Corporation. Shirley watched as this unfolded.Her world had collapsed the moment Aaron had publicly revealed Grace's identity. She was utterly dumbfounded. She recalled how they had often looked down on Grace and insulted her during their school days. Now, she regretted it deeply. She had ruined such a valuable opportunity. "Shirley, why are you standing here? Didn't I ask you to build a good relationship with Ms. Lewis and work for more orders? What are you doing?" Kolby pulled Shi

Chapter 333 Hit Them Where It Hurts

Grace stared intently at her, and Shirley shrank back guiltily.Hit them where it hurts.Grace knew what Shirley cared the most about. Therefore, she spoke lightly, "It's time to revolutionize Wonderful Electronics. I think you should sit out the business summit this time around."When she heard this, Shirley immediately became anxious. "No—"The words slipped out of her. Wonderful Electronics was the family's only hope. If they backed out of the business summit, it would be a huge blow to the company. "Grace, I can promise you anything except this."Grace said expressionlessly, "If you back out of your own accord, there will still be a chance for redemption. If you refuse and are then forced to back out later, Wonderful Electronics may not escape unscathed."Shirley's knees buckled.A sense of horror swept over her. She had never imagined that Grace could be so cunning.At this moment, she deeply regretted what she had done, but she still gave it a shot. "Grace, Wonderfu

Chapter 334 Invited on Stage

She straightened up and walked toward backstage.A moment later, the opening ceremony of the business summit began, and the emcee stood onstage, speaking enthusiastically.He made the atmosphere of the business summit reach a crescendo of excitement very quickly. "I believe that everyone here is the elite in the business world. As usual, we will randomly select one person to come onstage and share about their management experience."Just as the emcee finished speaking, Shirley came out from backstage and stared sinisterly in Grace's direction.She had already begun to form a plan in her heart.Immediately, she walked over to the group of wealthy ladies from before, and there was a look of triumph on her face. "Just watch! There'll be a good show soon."The wealthy ladies had no idea what Shirley had up her sleeve, so they advised her, "Ms. Lowe, don't shoot yourself in the foot."Shirley jutted her chin out defiantly and didn't answer them.In her heart, she fervently hoped t

Chapter 335 Brilliant

Then, Grace began speaking about her management experience. She was humorous and witty, and she was neither too arrogant nor overly humble. She was perfectly tactful in her speech.Her simple, ten-minute explanation had everyone engrossed. When she finished, there was a moment of silence before the crowd erupted into thunderous applause."Ms. Lewis is truly a genius in business!""She is logical and adaptable. No wonder she's been so successful with managing Amirate.""Ms. Lewis is really a role model for us all! Although she's young, she has a very unique perspective on business.""If there's a chance to work with Ms. Lewis, it would be my honor!"Shirley was shocked by the praise that was erupting around her. She had wanted to catch Grace unawares, but she had never imagined that it would make Grace gain even more attention instead. How could this be?"Wait a minute." Shirley spoke up and stopped Grace, who was about to leave the stage.At this point, she threw caution to

Chapter 336 An Embarrassment

When Shirley heard what the wealthy lady said, she dug her nails into her palm hard, but she felt no pain. All of a sudden, Kolby appeared out of nowhere and walked directly toward Shirley.Then, there was a resounding slap, and Shirley held her cheek in disbelief. She spoke aggrievedly, "Dad, why did you hit me?"Kolby was furious.Aaron had already sent someone to warn him earlier, all because Shirley had intentionally made things difficult for Grace."Shirley, I guess you think you can call the shots now. What did I warn you about before you came here? Why did you provoke Ms. Lewis?"Shirley clutched her face.She couldn't believe that her father, who had always spoiled her, had hit her in public because of Grace. She lowered her eyes and said nothing, but in her heart, she blamed all of this on Grace. Kolby glared at her angrily and continued saying, "If you offend Ms. Lewis, then Wonderful Electronics is doomed. Do you know what you've done?"Shirley bit her lip and s

Chapter 337 Finding the Secret Attic

Timothy nodded vigorously. "Naturally! Apart from this, nothing is important.""But I think that you're going to meet the woman of your dreams very soon."Timothy was shocked at her words. "Milady, you must be joking."Grace raised her eyebrows. "You don't believe me?""It's not that I don't believe you. It's just that, apart from you, it will be very difficult to find anyone in this world that will make my heart skip a beat."Timothy mumbled this to himself and then sighed. "But milady, your happiness is more important than mine."That was why he had left Amirate without turning back. It was all so that she could be happy. His own happiness was no longer that important. "I've organized a get-together tonight. Do you want to come along?"Grace had wanted to refuse, but Timothy was looking pitifully at her. "Milady, please grace us with your presence! If you don't, my old man will never let me hear the end of it."Grace burst into laughter. Even the bold Timothy had someone

Chapter 338 Obscure Business

The man in the room walked out too, and his eyes lit up when he saw Grace. "Wow, where did this exquisite specimen come from?"Someone among them recognized Grace and knew that she had come in with Timothy. He spoke to the man in a low voice. "Darien, this is a guest of Mr. Donegan."When Darien Perez heard that she was with Timothy, his expression darkened. He walked toward Grace. "What did you see just now? What did you hear?"Grace stared at him without any fear in her eyes. "You're operating a legitimate business, but I never thought that such obscure business would be going on too. All those women inside were kidnapped and brought here by you, weren't they?"Darien laughed. His eyes were cruel and ruthless. "It looks like you don't want to leave today … but perhaps that's for the best. A gorgeous woman like you is rare stock."As he spoke, he waved his hand, indicating for his subordinates to come forward. Grace laughed coldly. "You'll have to see if you'll be able to cat

Chapter 339 Do You Want to Die

"What should we do? We'll be sent away tomorrow morning. I might never see my family again.""I don't want to die! Someone, please, save us!"There was silence for a while before the sound of someone sobbing came.When Grace heard it, her gaze darkened and her heart wrenched. She had never imagined that there would still be such shady things happening in today's civilized society.Her gaze followed the sounds of the sobs.But the next moment, she locked eyes with a pair of extremely calm eyes. It made a stark contrast with the mournful atmosphere. The girl looked as if she were only 17 or 18 years old, but she had the calmness and intelligence of an adult. Her face was cold and expressionless, but her eyes were fixed on Grace, as if she wanted to see right through her. Neither of them spoke. They remained like that for half an hour. Then, the girl spoke, and there was a note of uncertainty in her tone. "Can you really get us out of here?"Grace said firmly, "Trust me. I

Chapter 340 A Rose With Thorns

At these words, the women shuddered. They had obviously all tasted the strength of the whip before. Then, Darien, who was in the lead, walked out.He looked at Grace without any trace of warmth in his eyes. "I didn't think that you would be so skilled. You escaped in about ten minutes."Grace looked coldly at him, and her voice was frosty when she spoke. "Let us go, or I'll destroy this place."Darien reacted as if he had heard a funny joke and walked over to Grace, clapping his hands. He had to admit that Grace had striking features, and even in this environment, she looked exotically beautiful! A gorgeous specimen like her would fetch a good price if she got on the market. But although she was beautiful, she was a rose with thorns. "Let you go? In your dreams!"Then, he waved a hand, and a few bodyguards came forward.But just at this moment, a subordinate rushed over. "Darien, bad news! Our bar has been surrounded."Darien's expression became furious. "What is going on
