In the Lap of Luxury

The sunlight was perfect, shrouding the two of them in a halo of light. They were like a picturesque scene by the roadside. Xander loosely wrapped his hands around her waist. "Let's not worry about the bet for now. We'll see."

Benjamin's car happened to pass by at this moment, and he saw this scene. His expression turned ugly as he gritted his teeth. Larry was very concerned. "Mr. Hawkins..."

"I understand why Alexander gave up."

Larry waited for the next sentence.

"At this point, even if it's not me, it won't be him either."

Grace had long since found the right guy, a man who had the ability to protect her.

Benjamin rubbed his forehead, never having felt so defeated in his entire life.

In the private room, Shawn said, "I gave up everything, but that doesn't mean that I won't collect some debts from you."

"What?"

"You took my place and married Grace, but you didn't treat her well, making her suffer. I'll remember this. One day, I'll make you pay."

Benjamin couldn't retort because it was the truth.

"Arrange people to get Jessica out of here tomorrow."

Larry was surprised. "Aren't we supposed to keep her here? Our people may not have this level of expertise."

"Arrange a dinner tonight. I want to meet someone higher up. It should be possible to make preparations and give her a new identity."

In the car, the driver raised the partition, isolating the sound from the back seat.

"You're leaving tonight? Why so sudden? You said three days later." Shocked, Grace sat in the corner, creating distance from Xander. "Something happened at Fulton Group. I have to go back."

"Is it because of Jake?"

Xander rubbed the cigarette box in his hand, enduring the urge to smoke. "More or less."

Grace's chest heaved. Although reluctant, business came first. She could only try to understand. "Help me say hi to Aunt Hestia and Uncle Raymond. Take care of them."

At this moment, she looked so

endureth her face crinkled.

I a laugh, lifting her chin

"What about me?" Content

"Just stay alive."

Xander burst into laughter, scolding her for being heartless.

At 8:00 pm, Grace sent him off at the airport. Before leaving, he held her hand tightly.

He didn't say anything, but it felt like he had said so much.

Peter was indeed left behind. "Ms. Lewis, are you going back to Summitview Manor?"

With Xander gone, Grace wasn't particularly interested in that place. She gave an address to find Emily.

"This necklace is with you? When did you get it?"

Surprised, Emily held the ruby and examined it under the light.

"He gave it to me. How much do you think it's worth?"

Emily gave a cool smirk. After some thought, she said, "Not much, just about a hundred of my stores."

Grace frowned at the answer.

Emily carefully put the necklace back in the box.

"Xander is really generous to you. Any random gift is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Ask him if he has any siblings and introduce one ome."

Grace laughed and scolded her for being obsessed with money. "But he does have a younger brother..."

"He's not an only child? Who's his younger brother?"

After careful consideration, Grace changed the subject and didn't answer directly.

While the two besties chatted enthusiastically, Peter stood at the door and received a call.

"Benjamin will probably send

Jessica out of Pamore these twoe

days. Keep an eye on his

эл

movements. Inform me if there's anything."

"Got it."

The plane slowly took off. Before hanging up the phone, Xander heard the last sentence from the other party. "It's confirmed. The Hawkins family indeed has an eldest son. Not Benjamin, but a person named Alexander. "He's not a businessman. He works for the government."
