In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 10 Her Brother Is Here
"Benjamin?"Yvonne didn't know about the real relationship between Benjamin and Grace. But she had seen enough to be annoyed by Grace's presence. "Just let Ms. Lewis leave. My parents are still waiting for you at home. It's been some time since you last met them. They miss you."Her voice jolted Benjamin out of his thoughts.The Hawkins family owed the Quines a lot, so it was only right that he visited Yvonne's parents.Grace's expression remained impassive even after hearing that.It was as if she didn't care about him anymore.Benjamin felt irritated, and his expression did nothing to hide it."It's right there."Grace followed his gaze and saw her identification card wedged under the water cooler. It seemed as insignificant as Benjamin probably thought of her."Thanks." She swallowed the bitterness she was feeling and picked up her identification card. Then, she turned and walked out without any hesitation.She could almost feel his cold eyes following her as she left.

When she saw Yvonne behind him, she was stunned."Ms. Quine, I've already prepared your room for you. It's just up these stairs."Yvonne paused in front of the elevator and looked at Patty in disbelief.

Patty took the hint from Benjamin and stopped Yvvone from following him. "Ms. Quine, please follow me."
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 12 Her Brothers in Darai
Grace woke up in a luxurious room. The decor in the room hadn't changed at all. It looked exactly the way she had left it a few years ago.Turning, she saw a bowl of hot soup on the bedside table. There were a few pretty dresses laid out on the bed for her to choose from as well.It made her want to cry.No one had treated her like this in Pamore.A set of footsteps sounded. A man dressed in all black appeared in her room, exuding confidence and boldness.It was her eldest brother, Aaron Lewis, who had brought her home from Pamore.He was the head of the Lewis family at the moment. Aaron wasn't one to show his emotions easily. "Grandpa was really worried when he heard that something had happened to your plane. When he couldn't call you, he got anxious and had a heart attack. He's still hospitalized now."Grace became frantic with worry when she heard that her grandfather, Harold Lewis, was sick. She got out of bed. "Aaron, how's Grandpa?""He's fine. He's getting all the re
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 13 Caleb's Background
"Why am I the last one to find out that you're home? I can't believe you didn't tell me, Gracie! Was our friendship just a lie?"Grace recognized the voice of her third older brother, Caleb Lewis.Caleb wasn't her biological brother. Her family had adopted him after his parents had abandoned him at birth.Grace didn't look up from her documents. "Take a seat and be quiet. Don't disturb me."It had been three days, and she still needed to get through all the documents Aaron's secretary had given her.In just a day, she had received hundreds of phone calls from various international organizations around the world. She felt flustered.Caleb didn't mind her curtness. He sat down on the couch. "Aaron's being too harsh on you. How does he expect you to get through all of this? He's training you to be his heir, and it's going to be exhausting. "Come with me on my world tour. Think of it as a break.""I don't want to," Grace said as she cleaned up her desk. "Remember the time when
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
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 17 Welcome Dinner
"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
