In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 14 We're Sleeping Together
Larry gritted his teeth and called Grace over and over again. Each time, the operator informed him that the line was busy.At one point, Benjamin grabbed his phone just as the call connected. "What is wrong with you? Larry, just tell Benjamin that he's not attending the expo this year," Grace snapped impatiently. The other end of the call was silent.After a while, a deep voice sounded. "It's me."Grace's breath caught when she heard Benjamin.He didn't comment on what she said earlier. Instead, he asked, "Will we be able to join the expo if we increase the sponsorship to 500 million dollars?"At that moment, Grace was sitting in Caleb's luxury sports car. "Benjamin, what are you playing at?"Seeing that she had been buried in work, Caleb had insisted on taking her out on a tour of the city. Grace hadn't been able to talk him out of it and had relented."If 500 million dollars isn't enough, then we'll make it a billion dollars. "And if that's still not enough, then I'm afr
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 15 Back to What It Looked Like
"This ring." Yvonne handed Benjamin a ring. It was a simple ring, but it shone slightly under the light.Benjamin recognized it at first glance. It was the only gift he had given Grace during their three years of marriage.He took the ring and ran his thumb over the inside of the ring, where their initials were inscribed: B & G. He still remembered Grace had asked him to put it on for her. However, he had impatiently replied, "Later."Even so, she had worn it for three years. He had never seen her without it.Yvonne was unhappy to see Benjamin lost in thought as he stared at the ring. Still, she kept a smile on her face. "This looks like an important ring. How could Ms. Lewis have forgotten it? Should we give it back to her, or …""Why should we give it back to her?" Susan immediately chimed in. "That woman looks harmless, but she turned her back on us without warning. She's bad!""I agree." Celia said. "I had a bad feeling about her when she first came here."Benjamin
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 16 Secretary-Cum-Wife
Benjamin sat in a first-class seat on the plane. He took out the pair of rings that he had instructed his housekeeper to throw away earlier.After some hesitation, he took out the bigger ring and put it on. He had never worn it before. But it fit him perfectly, as if it had been tailored for him.Over the last three years, he had refused to wear it, insisting that it wasn't appropriate for work.Any other wife would have thrown a tantrum at that.However, Grace hadn't. She had been gentle and obedient, indulgent of his every whim.He had never expected her to leave him so suddenly and determinedly. She hadn't even taken her wedding ring with her.Benjamin turned the ring around in his hand, frowning.Gentle and obedient, or determined. What was she really like?When the plane touched down at Darai, Benjamin headed to the offices of Donegan Enterprises. Once he reached, he went straight to the president's office.Timothy squinted at his computer, then picked up the proposal a

"There's no harm in a marriage of convenience as long as you don't interfere with each other," Benjamin said candidly."It's no harm for you since all you want is profit. I'm not like you! "I want to fall in love with my wife at first sight. She should be breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly smart. That's the kind of woman I want to marry." Timothy waved a hand. "You wouldn't understand."Benjamin couldn't argue with him on this. He changed the subject back to the expo. "Is there any way we can solve this?"Timothy patted his chest confidently. "The Donegans and Amirate are collaborating on this. All I need to do is make a call. I'm sure Aaron will do me this favor."He picked up his phone and called Aaron.However, Aaron didn't answer. When Timothy called him again, Aaron rejected the call, clearly implying that he wasn't willing to talk to him.Timothy put his phone awkwardly down, feeling embarrassed. His best friend had asked him for help. He had acted so confidently
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 18 Watch Where You Are
That night, Emily held a huge party in Grace's honor at the best club in Darai.The party was lively and extremely loud. On the stage, Emily slung an arm around Grace and raised her glass. "A toast to my best friend Grace, who's just escaped hell and has been reborn again!""Cheers!""Congratulations!"Grace downed the entirety of her glass in one gulp and pulled Emily into the crowd."Babe, this is the scion of HB Group. He has a net worth of billions of dollars. "That's the president of Paradin Enterprises. He's got a great figure, doesn't he?"Grace followed Emily as she introduced numerous people to her. As she turned, she bumped into someone."Are you blind? You stepped on my foot!" A shrill voice sounded from behind her.Gra raised an eyebrow and scoffed. She recognized that voice. It was her ex-sister-in-law, Celia Hawkins.Emily put herself between Grace and Celia. "Who the hell are you? Why are you so rude?"Celia was annoyed about ruining the shoes she had just
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 19 Return the Pain Twofold
There were too many people on Emily's side, and Yvonne was mortified by the confrontation. She backed away instinctively, trying to distance herself from Celia.Grace swirled her champagne and turned back to them. "Your sister-in-law's in trouble. Are you not going to stand up for her?" she taunted coldly."What are you guys doing over there?" An angry voice echoed.The crowd parted to reveal Benjamin, who was striding toward them with a dark expression.He saw Grace immediately.It had been some time since they had last met. She had put on a little weight and looked healthier—better, at least, than how she had looked when she had been with him.Her smile was almost as bright as the spotlights overhead. Her tailored dress complemented her complexion, making her look like a different woman. He couldn't take his eyes off her.When Celia saw her brother, she regained her courage and pointed at Grace and Emily. "Benjamin, they're bullying us!"Benjamin looked around, taking in
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 20 I Won't Make the Same Mistake Again
Benjamin's eyes were frigid. He'd never seen Grace like this before. Ever since the divorce, she had been acting more and more irrationally. "How can you hurt a pregnant woman? I thought you were better than this."Grace raised an eyebrow and said offhandedly, "You were wrong. I've always been like this."She didn't bother explaining anything to him."Are you done?" she said coldly. "If you're done, get lost.""Watch your attitude, Grace," Benjamin said, his expression tight with anger."What, are you expecting me to grovel in front of you?" Grace scoffed. "In your fucking dreams.""Benjamin, it hurts," Yvonne cried softly. Benjamin looked at her. Tears were sliding down her reddened face. Her face was pale as she put a protective hand over her stomach. She looked like she was about to faint any minute.Benjamin frowned. "I'll take you to the hospital."He picked her up. The crowd parted, leaving him a path toward the door.Benjamin took a few steps, then turned to G
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 21 Much Ado About an Assistant
Benjamin's text was just as overbearing as the man himself. "What happened today was Celia's fault. She will apologize to you, but you have to apologize to Yvonne as well!"Grace was furious. "What a fucking asshat. Does he have shit in his head instead of a brain?" she cursed as she blocked his contact.Emily smirked at her. "Babe, you're going to the auction with Aaron tomorrow, right? I'll choose your outfit for you. Let me see your closet," she begged."No problem. Pick whatever you want," Grace said.As soon as she pushed open the closet door, Emily exclaimed, "Wow, this is huge! It's even bigger than our boutique in Pamore!"Grace's closet extended three floors below her room. It was filled with all sorts of jewelry and clothes from luxury brands.Aaron had renovated it especially for her when she came back. It had only been completed yesterday."I thought my closet was big enough. Yours takes the cake," Emily said, staring at all the colorful clothes.Grace took a dres
