In fact, it took only one day for the Securities and Exchange Commission to pass the evidence review and issue a certificate, clarifying that Xander was not involved in insider trading.In past cases, even if there was no issue found, the investigations usually uncovered some problems, and the reputation of the person investigated would suffer. Xander came out unscathed, relying on his absolute innocence and the people backing him.When Dexter signed the statement, his boss earnestly advised him, "You know who Mr. Jarvis is. He's your advisor, and you should be aware of his principles. Even with close relationships, as long as there are problems, he will investigate them thoroughly. Isn't his backing of Xander proof enough?"It was precisely because Dexter knew Winston's character and had the evidence in front of him that he agreed to sign and release Xander.However, the depth of Xander's schemes caused him to deeply furrow his brow, and he put down his pen. "Xander is not a simpl

Lydia brought many changes of clothes for Grace. She busied herself with the arrangements, remaining silent with her head bowed."Why so quiet? You don't even talk when you come to see me." Grace stood by, forcing a smile and feeling somewhat uneasy.Tears welled up in Lydia's eyes, falling in large drops. "You’ve never suffered like this. From the moment I met you, you've been the diamond cherished in the palm of the Lewis family. How could you end up as a prisoner?"This reaction frightened Grace, and she hurriedly wiped away Lydia's tears. "I'm fine now, aren't I? I haven't lost any limbs.""You've lost weight."Grace was startled, and the tight feeling in her chest squeezed her. She swallowed her sobs. "Tell everyone not to worry. I haven't done anything, so they can't convict me.""Emily is so angry she wants to take a knife to the Hawkins family."A picture formed in Grace's mind, and she laughed out loud. Lydia joined in. "Aaron is also very worried about you. Your brothe

All remaining traces of humor in Aaron's eyes vanished, and it was replaced with an eerie gaze."What would it take for you to take the money and release Grace?"Benjamin's adrenaline heightened. He responded firmly, "I won't take it."He wouldn't take it.At least for now, Aaron had to respect the man's boldness. He adjusted his cuffs calmly and gradually stood up. "So you want her to go to jail.""Aaron, the Lewis family had always been respectable people, with every generation more outstanding than the last. Tell me, what would happen if one of them happened to have been in jail?"Benjamin burst into laughter. He had probably pictured the Lewis family being criticized by the public. "Then, the Lewis family name wouldn't remain untarnished anymore. The Fulton family probably wouldn’t accept Grace either. Even Grace wouldn’t be able to accept this version of herself."Benjamin slowly analyzed the situation. It was as if he'd found the most amusing thing on earth. Leaning ag

On the fourth day of her detention, Grace met with Luke.Compared to her anxiety the last few days, Grace was now much more composed. "How are things on the outside?""As soon as you were detained, Amirate lost all forms of leadership and fell into complete chaos. Fortunately, Mr. Lewis had arrived in Pamore to take charge and stabilize everything. Curious about your future, there have been all sorts of speculations amongst the public."That was all within her expectations. She tapped her finger lightly on the table and wanted a precise answer. "Has Xander been released?""That... I'm not sure. There are many speculations, but without an official statement, we can’t be certain," Luke responded carefully.Grace changed her approach. "What has Hazel been up to lately?""She has been making trips to the Securities and Exchange Commission for the past few days, but there's been no movement in the last two. Perhaps I haven't been watching closely enough."From his answer, Grace confi

Hestia arrived in Pamore and was stopped at the airport by a high-ranking official. He spoke respectfully, "Madam Fulton, it's late, and Mr. Jarvis said there aren’t many restaurants that suit your taste. He had a chef prepare some dishes and asked me to deliver them to you."Hestia glanced at the food box in his hand and managed a smile. "Tell him that if he considers me a friend, he needn't bother so much. He should pay more attention to his wife. That's only right. I'm not interested in entering a life of trivial domestic concerns. Please decline it for me."Once a person got married, no matter how wealthy they were, they were bound to deal with mundane household affairs—a truth Hestia had realized early on when she married Raymond.The man left shortly after, embarrassed.Hestia, on behalf of Xander, had returned to the ME Group headquarters to seek help from her contacts. This time, her secretary, Karina, had also come along. Now, Karina spoke up, "Mr. Fulton has escaped dan
