At this moment, Peter released his grip and stood straight on the side. "Mr. Fulton."Sean trembled as he climbed off the couch. "You bitch, how dare you hit me? Xander, is this how your people handle things?"His head was bleeding. Half of his face was covered in blood, making him look terrifying.However, Xander didn't even glance at him. Instead, he walked over to Grace in the corner and slowly crouched down. He reached out his trembling hand. "Gracie."Grace had been holding back her emotions this whole time. When she saw Xander, she broke down at once. Tears streamed down her face."I don't know him."Xander lifted her face. It was so cold that it pierced his heart."I know. I'm here now. Calm down."Seeing this, Sean’s eyes widened. "Y-You know each other? Xander, you set me up!"Just then, the manager rushed over with people. When he saw the scene, he knew the situation was bad. "Mr. Fulton, this happened because of our negligence."Upon closer inspection, Grace's frai

Half an hour later, the driver hurriedly returned. "Mr. Fulton, here."He held out a bag. Inside was a white dress, identical to the one Grace was wearing. While she changed, Xander leaned against the car and lit a cigarette.Peter stood respectfully by his side. "The subway project is ready to start at any time. Are we being too impulsive by terminating the contract with Sean?""He's not the only material supplier in Frenda. If not for my respect for the older generation of the Brookes, I would have terminated this contract long ago."Otherwise, Xander wouldn't have been struck by Jake with this move."What about the directors and the committee?""I'll handle them." Xander took a deep drag from his cigarette. "Inform Hazel that she should go to the branch office from today on. There's no need for her to come back to the headquarters."Peter was taken aback. He hadn't expected Hazel to receive such a severe punishment.…The lights were on in Lewis Manor. Xander parked the c

Unable to find common ground in conversation, they decided to play poker instead.Wanting to liven things up, Isla made phone calls inviting more people to join. During the waiting period, Grace filled in for two rounds."Mrs. Brooke isn't answering her phone. Is something wrong?""You don't know? Last night, Mrs. Brooke stormed into Fortress, wielding a knife. It's said that when she arrived, the screens in the lobby were playing a loop of her husband with a woman," Jean recounted excitedly."What video?""You know, that kind."The ladies burst into laughter."Did she offend someone? The Brooke family has a solid background. Isn't this a slap in their face?""Fortress doesn't easily disclose client privacy. Whoever did this must be a big shot."Grace gazed at the cards in her hand, smiling but saying nothing.Bored of the women's chatter, Victor excused himself for some fresh air. He sent a text to Grace. "I'll wait outside. Come out after two rounds."That was her plan,

Xander knocked on the door, and an attendant opened it. Isla looked up and saw the good-looking man.Xander gestured with his finger, indicating for her not to make a sound.At that moment, Grace had already won over a dozen rounds. Another lady at the table understood the situation well and kept folding her cards. Combined with Grace's sharp wit, Priscilla and Jean were utterly defeated.A pile of chips lay on the table.Priscilla was visibly upset. After finishing the last round, she conceded. "You're really clever, Ms. Lewis. I admit defeat."Even from the back, Grace seemed delighted. "Okay. Losing isn't scary. It's being afraid to admit defeat that's scary. Aunt Priscilla, you need to practice your poker skills."Priscilla remained silent.After collecting the chips, Grace bid farewell and turned to leave. But as she did, she stumbled into a man's arms, hurting her nose. When she looked up, she saw Xander. "Xander?"Everyone looked over.Smiling, Xander gently rubbed

"Despite the improvement in our performance, the after-sales issues in e-commerce remain our top priority. All departments need to put in more effort to identify and resolve these problems," Grace said calmly, feeling a bit parched.Aaron handed her a glass of water.She mouthed "thank you" to him.Luke waited until everyone finished reporting before speaking, "As the end of the year approaches, it's time to arrange the annual meeting for Amirate Corporation. Ms. Lewis, how do you think we should proceed this year?"When Grace had been with the Hawkins family, she had handled many annual meetings, most of which were very dull. They mainly involved preparing the programs and buttering up to leaders. She thought it was boring, so she suggested, "Since we've done so well this year, why not throw a party and let everyone have some fun?"The video conference immediately buzzed with excitement, "That's a great idea!""What's the theme?" someone asked.Grace pondered for a moment and
