Chapter 441 The Tables Turned

Jessica stepped forward and gently took Susan's arm to soothe her. "Don't worry. Only you and I know about this. Benjamin will never find out as long as I don't say anything." Susan, however, was panicking. She knew about Benjamin's concern for Grace, and he had warned her not to provoke Grace several times. But this time, she had crossed the line. "Jessica, you must help me keep this a secret!"Jessica smiled and nodded. "Don't worry, Madam Hawkins. The payment for the photographer was done from my account. Even if Benjamin investigates this, he can only trace it back to me and won't suspect you." Hearing this, Susan breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest. "Good. That's good." "But …" Jessica hesitated, then continued, "You promised to help me with the property deed for the land last time." "That's a small matter, Jessica. Since I've promised you, I will make it happen. Don't worry." Jessica smiled broadly. She linked arms with Susan and said, "Thank you, Mada

Chapter 442 Out of Reach

"I looked into it, and it turns out that someone paid to stir up the rumors about you and Wayne." "Do you know who it is?" "Not yet, but sooner or later, I'll find out who dared to do something so despicable." Zoey spoke with conviction, then added in a playful tone, "But speaking of which, the netizens are quite sharp-eyed. At least they didn't go off track and focused on the main things. "By the way, Gracie, how about inviting Xander for a get-together tonight?" Grace thought the suggestion was good. "Sure! I'll send him a message."Grace opened her chat with Xander. They hadn't spoken since last night, and Grace's eyes flickered with worry. During this time, she and Xander had been chatting regularly, and they had hardly stopped. The longest gap between their messages before had just been a few hours. But today was strange. It had been a whole night, and Xander hadn't replied to her message. Grace's fingers rapidly tapped on the screen as she sent Xander a message.

Chapter 443 A Coincidence

The security guard politely replied, "I'm unaware of Mr. Fulton's private matters. But young lady, let me remind you that Mr. Fulton isn't someone you should be trifled with. You'd better not have any ideas about him." Grace was speechless. She was about to say something when she suddenly heard a car horn behind her. Grace turned around and saw Benjamin's car parked by the roadside. Benjamin opened the car door and got out, walking straight toward her. "Grace, why are you here so late?" "Shouldn't I be asking you the question?" Grace replied.Benjamin had happened to be passing by when he saw her, so he had turned around. He looked up and saw the sign on the building, which read "Futurelink Corporation". The words seemed particularly irritating at this moment. "Are you here for Xander?" Benjamin asked. His eyes were filled with jealousy as he tried to read her expression. But Grace simply replied nonchalantly, "Mr. Hawkins, this is my business, and it has nothing to do w

Chapter 444 I Am Your Mother

With a stern expression, Benjamin asked coldly, "Mom, don't you have anything you want to explain to me?" Susan stumbled and almost fell, but she managed to hold onto the railing beside her. "I-I don't understand what you're talking about," Susan replied. Benjamin approached her, backing her into a corner. "Mom, do you not realize what you've done?" "You know?" Susan was shaking, and she slowly closed her eyes, overcome with fear. "I-I didn't mean to. I was just upset with that woman, Grace, for being such a show-off. I wanted to teach her a lesson." Hearing that, Benjamin immediately grabbed her arm. "What did you say? What did you do to Grace?"Susan was taken aback. "Isn't this what you were talking about?" Benjamin snorted coldly and let go of her arm. "It seems you've been keeping a lot from me." "No. Benjamin, listen to me. It's not what you think, I—" "That's enough!" Benjamin interrupted her. "Mom, I've given you many chances and told you not to provoke Gra

Chapter 445 You're Not Sorry

Susan was left speechless after being reprimanded. "Now you show no signs of remorse. In fact, you're making things worse. You're ruining all hope of them being together," Elizabeth said helplessly. She then looked at Benjamin. "Benjamin, do what you need. I'll support you. Your mother is at fault. But she's still your mother, no matter what. You have to show her some respect."Elizabeth let out a heavy sigh. "Grandma ..." Elizabeth waved her hand and didn't say anything more. She turned and walked away, trembling slightly. "Benjamin, I know it's my fault. I realize it now." Benjamin stared at Susan coldly, not saying a word. After a pause, he asked, "The piece of land for Jessica, did you acquire it under the Hawkins family's name?"Susan hesitated and slowly came to a realization. "Did you come back today to talk about this?" Benjamin ignored her question and asked, "Do you know who Jessica is?" Susan was puzzled, her eyes filled with confusion. Benjamin leaned

Chapter 446 We're Even

Benjamin slightly nodded and simply said, "Danielle, the real estate industry isn't doing well at the moment. There will soon be major reforms from above. Your hasty investment might very well trap your funds." Upon hearing this, Jessica's smile grew even wider. But she said maliciously, "Benjamin, aren't you just saying this because you're afraid I'll go against Grace? Are you worried that if I build Landon Group up, I'll confront Grace head-on?" Benjamin shook his head, his tone cold and disdainful as he said, "You're not worthy to be her opponent."Jessica's face turned cold. Before she could speak, Benjamin took out the evidence he had already prepared. "At least she wouldn't stoop to such lowly tactics like you." With that, he pushed the documents at her, hitting Jessica painfully. "You leaked those photos online, right? And you hired the internet trolls. Did I get that right?" Jessica hadn't expected Benjamin to trace it back to her so quickly, but she wasn't panic

Chapter 447 She Doesn't Know Him Well Enough

Grace stared blankly at her phone, lost in thought. "Ms. Lewis, here is your ginger tea. Please drink it while it's hot." Marien's voice broke Grace's train of thought. Grace quickly composed herself and said, "Just leave it, thanks." "Okay." As Marien was about to leave, Grace stopped her. "Marien, do you think if someone is suddenly out of reach, it could mean something has happened?" Marien was experienced in her ways. Seeing Grace's furrowed brows, she instantly understood. "Ms. Grace, you're not talking about Mr. Fulton, are you?" Grace blushed at having her thoughts read. "Marien, you ..." Marien explained with a smile, "You've been mentioning Mr. Fulton for the past few days. It's hard for an old lady like me to ignore it."Grace's face turned even redder. "Marien, what are you saying?" Marien reassured her, "Don't worry, Ms. Grace. If Mr. Fulton hasn't been in touch for a while, it might be because he's tied up with something. I believe he will contact you as

Chapter 448 Smiling Broadly

At this point, Grace instantly came to a realization. "Caleb, are you suggesting we bring Kayla into Amirate Corporation?" Caleb hummed in agreement. "That's exactly what I'm thinking." Grace nodded but didn't say anything else. It was widely known that actresses like Kayla, who have already debuted and gained some popularity, were challenging to recruit for a company. After all, an actress only started to make money once they gained popularity and heat. But now Kayla was voluntarily willing to join Amirate Corporation. "Ms. Lewis, do you not welcome me?" Kayla asked in a joking tone. "Of course not. How could that be? It's an honor to have you join our company, Ms. Green." "I look forward to working with you!"Kayla looked up at Caleb beside her. The affection in her eyes was something any woman could recognize. Grace immediately understood. It was clear that Kayla hadn't made this decision for work. Her true intentions were something else. Just as Grace was abou

Chapter 449 I Don't Have a Crush

"Gracie, what exactly are you trying to say?" Grace didn't beat around the bush and asked, "Caleb, you don't have other ideas about her, do you?" Caleb finally caught on to what Grace was implying. He smiled and replied, "When did you start inquiring about my personal life?" Seeing Caleb dodge her question, Grace couldn't help but become anxious. "You don't have a crush on her, do you?" Caleb flicked her forehead with his finger and scolded, "What are you thinking? Kay is just my junior, nothing more than that."Grace winced in pain, covering her forehead, and muttered, "Kay! You address her so intimately. Who knows if you're telling the truth?" Caleb said in exasperation, "Gracie, what can I say to make you believe?" "I do believe you. However, others might not think the same." After all, the way Kayla looked at Caleb blatantly revealed their relationship wasn't so innocent. "Caleb ... I ..." "Stop, Gracie! What are you trying to say?" Grace's eyes wandered as she

Chapter 450 Love Works in Mysterious Ways

Kayla wasn't at all upset. Instead, she said graciously, "No problem. You go ahead with your work. I can go around on my own." Seeing Kayla's demeanor, Caleb felt somewhat guilty. "I'll send my assistant over. You can tell him if you need anything." "Okay." After Caleb left, the smile on Kayla's face slowly faded. She turned her head, looking at the office's closed door with an eerie glint in her eyes.... Inside the office, Grace quickly greeted Lydia upon seeing her. "Why did you suddenly come over?" Lydia smiled and put down her bag. "I just happened to be passing by." Lydia lowered her gaze, casually asking, "Caleb is here too?" "Oh, he came to support my newly established talent department, and he signed his contract with Amirate Corporation." Lydia was surprised. "He signed with the company?" "Yes, he's our company's top celebrity now."Knowing Lydia's feelings for Caleb, Grace added, "If VERE Jewelry sponsors our company, only Caleb would really benefit from
