In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 343

"Are you Mr. Anthony Jackson, the chairman of Elysium Bank?"

Anthony smiled. "Indeed."

Standing nearby, Timothy seemed to have realized something. "Mr. Jackson, are you and Noelle ... relatives?"

Anthony replied, "I'm Noelle's father."

This revelation left Grace stunned. She hadn't expected Noelle to be the daughter of Elysium Bank's chairman.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Jackson." Grace greeted him confidently and elegantly.

Anthony couldn't help but appreciate her. "There's no need for formalities, Ms. Lewis."

Grace continued, "Mr. Jackson, Noelle has external injuries with some infections. After receiving medical treatment, she's no longer in danger, but she hasn't woken up yet."

Anthony nodded slightly. "I already knew about Noelle's condition before coming. Thank you for saving her, Ms. Lewis."

"There's no need to be so polite, Mr. Jackson. It was just a small effort. Now that you're here, Noelle is in your hands. We'll take our leave."

"Wait a moment." Anthony signaled to his butler, who handed a blank check to Grace.

"Ms. Lewis, this is a token of appreciation from Mr. Jackson. Please accept it."

Without hesitation, Grace refused. "No, Mr. Jackson. I don't need this. Please take it back."

Seeing this, Anthony realized that he had been too abrupt. How could the daughter of the Lewis family want for such a small thing?

"Apologies, Ms. Lewis. It's a habit."

"No problem."

Anthony signaled for his butler to take the check back. "Since you don't need the check, consider this a favor I owe you. If you ever need assistance in the future, feel free to ask."

A favor from Elysium Bank's chairman was more valuable than a blank check, especially for a businessperson.
