Chapter 232 Confident as Always
He knew that she had been injured and had even gone as far as to follow her to Frenda.
However, the Lewis family had hidden her too well.
He stayed in Frenda for ten days but hadn’t been able to find her.
After he had returned to Pamore, he had been waiting for her at Amirate Corporation.
Grace concealed all her emotions. She calmly said, “Mr. Hawkins, is this your way of showing concern? I’m sorry, but I don’t need it.”
“Seeing you well puts my mind at ease,” Benjamin said.
He paused momentarily and continued, “The nanotechnology robot project with Albert has progressed to a critical stage. The product launch is next month. It’s our first collaboration. If you have time, we can go together.”
He had shifted the topic to work.
This time, Grace didn’t refuse. After all, it was a project she was managing. “Sure, I’ll arrange my schedule.”
In truth, Benjamin had overheard Grace’s conversation with Samuel earlier. He had figured that Grace needed help.
So he continued, “Ms. Lewis, Hawkins Group is now involved in several new projects. If you’re interested, we can continue our partnership …”
Without hesitation, Grace declined. “There’s no need, Mr. Hawkins.‘
Benjamin self–mockingly lowered his eyes, concealing his emotions. “Is it because you want nothing to do with me? Aren’t you always clear about keeping personal and professional matters separate?”
His words didn’t anger Grace or stir the slightest ripple in her composure.
She replied, “Mr. Hawkins, your confidence remains unwavering. However, Amirate
Corporation has already found a new partner, Futurelink Corporation. It’s best if there isn’t any excessive involvement with Hawkins Group…”
Her words were straightforward.
Benjamin was unimpressed. He said with disdain, “Futurelink is a new company. It’s still finding its footing, but it’s already rushing forward with projects? Aren’t you afraid of stumbling?”
“Mr. Hawkins, have you never learned how to respect others?” Grace retorted.
