Chapter 531 Changing Into a Storage Room

His real name was Jake Silas.Jake's face turned dark, and he yelled, "Xander!" "Your mother has wild ambitions, provoking us right to our home, but does the Fulton family accept you?" Xander stepped closer to Jake. He was slightly taller, so he towered over him. "Changing your own surname is just deceiving yourself and others. Just like your methods, it isn't worthy of any attention." Jake clenched his fists. "So what if you're the eldest son of the Fulton family? You need to see the bigger picture and consider the overall situation. "But I don't have to. I might not be as presentable, but I'm more aggressive and confident than you! You're always so proud, but you've forgotten that between the tortoise and the hare, the hare lost." Xander smirked mockingly. "You're overthinking this. I won't be the rabbit." With that, he turned and walked out. "If you're interested in playing with women, you might as well go home and see if your mother is still alive." "Xander!"

Chapter 532 Nothing to Do With Money

"Because you treated me to it." "Xander, that's just silly!" She thought of that scene and couldn't help but laugh. Seeing her smile, Xander asked, "Still nervous?" Grace shook her head. "Not anymore." But as she laughed, she suddenly felt something was off. Why had Xander done that back then? Just as she was about to ask, she caught his serious look, and she suddenly realized something. Her smile ceased, and a blush crept onto her face. Great, now she was even more nervous. "What ... what time is it now?" "10:00 pm. I've asked the maids to prepare a late-night snack for you when you get back."The conference room door opened, and Eric and the others filed out. Grace had been crouching for too long, and her legs were numb. So Xander helped her stand. "Congratulations, Ms. Lewis. Byte Technologies' e-commerce entry into the international market has been approved." Everyone was stunned and found it hard to believe. "It has been approved?" Grace whispered. "Yes.

Chapter 533 Love Is Enough

Matthew called Grace the first thing after he found out about the approval. "Amazing, Ms. Lewis. I never expected you to be so competent! You actually managed to convince Mr. Schultz." Grace listened to the excitement in Matthew's voice while eating the late-night snack Hestia had prepared. "Mr. Williams, I've finished what you asked. About the agreement we had earlier …" "Don't worry, I'll keep my promise." Grace nodded, somewhat relieved. "Although we've gotten the approval, I hope your company can keep it confidential. It's not fully implemented yet, and it could be dangerous if someone with bad intentions were to interfere." It was a done deal, but caution was still necessary. "Of course, I'll instruct everyone to keep it under wraps until the right moment to go public!" Matthew promised.She just stared at the tea in front of her. Xander silently pushed a bowl of soup toward her, gesturing for her to eat. Grace looked up to see Hestia watching them with a wholes

Chapter 534 He'll Always Be Fulton Junior

"What about Jake? What do you plan to do about him?" "I'll take over Fulton Group." Hestia slowly put her hands down. "Don't let Grace know about this. She shouldn't get involved in these matters." Xander swallowed hard. After Hestia left, he slowly looked up and met Grace's eyes. Grace instinctively evaded his gaze. "Xander, have you decided to return to Fulton Group?" she asked softly. Xander tried to keep his smile casual. "Why? Do you think I can't handle it?" "Of course not! I'm just worried you might be targeted." "I've fallen for it once. It won't happen again!" Xander's face turned dark and cold, scaring Grace a bit. Grace pursed her lips, then mustered the courage to hook his little finger. "Xander, I visited Fulton Group when I was little, but I've forgotten what it's like now. I want to see it." Xander frowned slightly and asked, "You want to go?" Grace nodded and said, "I had Luke reschedule my flight for tomorrow afternoon. Can I visit your office i

Chapter 535 Posing as an Assistant

"For what?" "Mr. Jake was messing around with an assistant in the office." Aware that Grace was Xander's friend, the assistant answered her questions truthfully. Upon hearing this, Grace tilted her head slightly. Her smile was bright and piercing. Jake didn't hear their conversation, but he clenched his fists as he approached them. "What are you laughing at?" Grace looked at him with her hands in her pockets. Then, she asked the assistant, "Who is this?" Trembling, the assistant replied, "Mr. Jake."So, this was Jake Fulton. Grace noticed the mole at the corner of his eye, which made him bear some resemblance to Raymond. Jake's face grew even darker, and he asked, "Which department are you from?" The assistant was about to answer, but Grace stopped her. "So you're Mr. Jake. My apologies. I'm a new assistant. I just started today." Jake frowned, his gaze falling on the logo on her coat. "Why is an assistant wearing Chanel to work?" He found it suspicious that

Chapter 536 Favoritism

At that moment, Raymond spoke sternly, "Alright, Jake. Sit down." Caught between a rock and a hard place, Jake glared at Grace fiercely before reluctantly sitting down. Grace made a timely exit, and as she closed the door, she heard Raymond say, "Let's do as Xander suggested. You'll handle this project. Go and do some field investigation in Linden City first." Jake's gaze was burning. He was clearly unwilling, but he had no choice but to grab the cup in front of him and take a gulp. Grace left with a satisfied smile and hurried toward the elevator. The assistant from before caught up to her. "Ms. Lewis, you didn't do anything, did you?"Grace spread her hands and asked, "What could I possibly do? Alright, I'm leaving now. See you next time." Her smile was clearly mischievous. Just as Grace entered the elevator, Jake rushed out of the meeting room in a panic, clutching his stomach and desperately looking for a restroom. He looked utterly disheveled. As the meeting dispe

Chapter 537 Take It Easy

In the video, Grace glanced at the surveillance camera unintentionally. Her natural beauty and distinct presence stood out. Jake pressed pause, and his brow furrowed deeply. "So it was Xander? Don't let me find this woman!" …Meanwhile, as the plane took off, it traced an arc across the sky. Zoey was on a business trip. She had intentionally booked a flight to meet Grace at the airport after finding out the latter was coming home. "Jeez, you were away for quite a while on this trip. Everyone's saying it was for Byte Technologies' project. Is that true?" Zoey teased while opening the car door. Grace settled into the back seat. "It's true. What else are people saying?""They're also saying that since there's been no news for so long, you've probably failed." Zoey was very eager about the gossip. "Is it true?" Grace looked at her and asked, "What do you think?" "Can you stop that and give me a straight answer? This is big news. Whether it's a success or a failure, my h

Chapter 538 Controlling His Life

Jessica was wearing heavy makeup today. It made her look very vicious as she smirked. "The collaboration between Amirate Corporation and Byte Technologies is set in stone now. We're approaching the fourth quarter of the year now. Benjamin, will you help me?" Benjamin smoked from across her. His gaze fixed on Grace, never wavering. She seemed very happy today, exuding a relaxed air, far from her cautious self when she was around him. "Help you with what?" he asked, disinterested."I can't let Grace succeed in this collaboration," Jessica stated firmly. Benjamin scoffed upon hearing this. "Why, Danielle? What makes you think you can sabotage her deal? I told you, I won't let you touch her." Jessica raised an eyebrow and mocked, "You're quite the knight in shining armor. I never noticed that before. "You might like her, but it's clear she detests you! Since that's the case, why not join me?"Benjamin rubbed his temples and took a big swig of his drink. "If you don't have

Chapter 539 Illegitimate Child

Grace immediately looked up and asked, "What happened?" Ashley scrolled through her phone and exclaimed, "It turns out that Willow has an illegitimate child. This is huge news!" Surprised, Grace took out her phone to read the news. Indeed, that morning, the paparazzi had revealed that Willow had a child. By that afternoon, they had released footage of her secretly meeting a man, with the child calling him 'Daddy'! The internet went into a frenzy."I can read every word, but I don't understand anything." "She's married and had a child with another man? That's crazy!""I can't imagine what the husband is feeling." Ashley shook her head, sighing. "I know her agent. Her marriage was already a headache for him, and now he also has to deal with this PR disaster." Grace watched the video, gripping her phone tighter. "Maybe the child's not hers?" "That's impossible. Look, the child resembles Willow so much. Genetics don't lie, and the child even called her 'Mom'." Grace h

Chapter 539 Cutting Ties

Matthew looked up and asked, "Ms. Lewis, why are you here?" "As your partner, isn't it normal for me to check in?" He rubbed his temples and said, "I'm sorry that my personal issues have affected Amirate Corporation." "It's too late for apologies now. Is the child really yours?" Grace sat down. "Yes. I was indeed in a relationship with Willow for a few years, but due to personal reasons, it didn't work out. She didn't tell me about the pregnancy until after the child was born." Grace understood. Willow had taken advantage of the situation. She had secured herself a home while finding lifelong support using the child. "What about your wife's reaction to her?" "It's nothing new for people like us, Ms. Lewis. She doesn't care." Indeed, in a marriage of convenience, such things were often overlooked as long as they didn't affect personal interests. "Maybe she didn't care before, but now ..." Matthew's expression froze."Is it possible your wife orchestrated this?"
