All Chapters of In the Lap of Luxury: Chapter 541 - Chapter 550

Grace felt a headache coming on as she realized that if the news continued to spread for a few more days, the situation would be beyond damage control. Luke presented his findings to Grace. "The assistant close to Willow is the most suspicious." This assistant had been with Willow for five years, even before the latter had risen to fame. She was Willow's most trusted person. Yet she had previously worked at Hawkins Group. Grace clenched the paper in her hand, a cold laugh escaping her lips.Luke frowned. "Ms. Lewis?" "I'm fine. I just can't believe that the man who has stabbed me in the back countless times would choose now to do it again." As she walked out, she bumped into Samuel, who was delighted. "Ms. Lewis, where are you rushing off to so angrily?" Grace glared at him and snapped, "You don't need to worry.""Byte Technologies is in trouble, and you must be overwhelmed. I've always said these emerging industries are just bubbles waiting to burst. But you wouldn't l

Early in the next morning, Luke reported, "I've managed to schedule a meeting with Theodore." "How did you manage that?" "Given Amirate Corporation's status, meeting the president of a small company is quite simple." Grace smiled and asked, "Where will the meeting take place?" "At the café downstairs at Amirate."… Meanwhile, Benjamin had just arrived at his office to find Jessica waiting for him. "I knew you're always punctual." Ignoring her, Benjamin asked, "What is it?" "Given the current trend, Byte Technologies will be finished in a few more days. I'm here to remind you not to think about extending a helping hand to Grace." Jessica smirked with satisfaction. Benjamin looked at her with disdain. There had been no news from Grace's end recently, which had worried him slightly."Are you done?" Jessica's expression darkened. "Larry, see her out." Larry promptly entered and gestured toward the door. "Ms. Landon, this way, please." Jessica cast a deep look

Benjamin didn't let go but held on tighter. "You fussing over Theodore is pointless, and so is questioning me. You have more important things to do right now!" Grace was so infuriated that she laughed. She signalled her bodyguards to drag Theodore away. The café regained its quiet atmosphere, leaving just Grace and Benjamin. "So, Mr. Hawkins, enlighten me. What should I be doing?" Benjamin pursed his lips and handed her the document he was holding. "Cut ties with Byte Technologies and choose a new path. You're three months away from the final quarter of the year. There's still time to turn back, Grace. I haven't closed all doors on you."Grace was baffled. She flipped through the document, noticing the words 'new energy'. Losing patience, she closed it abruptly. "So you had this planned all along? You block my path with Byte Technologies and then magnanimously offer me a new one. Is this some child's game for you, Benjamin? Don't you find it tiring?" Benjamin's frown d

Grace sounded very excited. "I'm not sleepy yet." "Let me guess, you've resolved the issue with Byte Technologies and can't sleep from excitement?" Grace was somewhat surprised. This matter had been resolved before the news reached overseas. "Did Matthew tell you?" Xander didn't answer. Instead, he said, "I have my ways of finding out. Just tell me if it's true." "Sort of," Grace admitted while fidgeting with a pillow in her arms. "I didn't want to tell you to avoid distracting you." "Ah, my Gracie has her ways of solving problems." His voice was magnetic and laced with affection. It made Grace flush. "What about you? Are things going smoothly there?" Smoothly? As Grace asked, Xander sat in his office at Fulton Group, bathed in sunlight, while Hazel brought him coffee and toast.Xander had shaken up Jake's connections within Fulton Group in just a few days and had almost reshuffled the entire company. No one dared to underestimate him as the future heir anymore.

Now, because of Grace's provocation, Jessica had to tighten her belt for the next three months. As Grace watched the commotion, she initially enjoyed the scene until she noticed the card Jessica used. Then, her smile faded. Emily noticed the change and asked, "What's wrong?" "That card. It looks familiar," Grace mused, unable to recall where she had seen it. Emily wanted a closer look, but Jessica had already tucked it away.Jessica approached Grace with a smug look, holding her new bag. "See, I've paid for it. Don't end up buying something cheaper than me, Ms. Lewis. That would be quite embarrassing!" Grace remained unfazed and walked into the store, instructing the clerk to wrap up a handbag she had previously eyed. It was a medium-priced bag she liked for its unique and elegant design. Jessica scoffed. "That’s only two thousand dollars. That's all?" Grace looked puzzled and answered, "I'm here to pick something I like, not to compete with you, Ms. Landon. Is there a
