In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 477

"Xander, do you think things would be better if I had chosen to invest in that plot of land?"

Xander looked straight at the front and asked, "Why? Are you starting to doubt yourself?"

"Yeah. I just feel like what they said made sense. If—"

"Gracie, believe in yourself. The project isn't as simple as it seems."

Grace's eyes lit up when she thought about what Xander had said to the directors. She leaned toward Xander and looked at him hopefully.

"Do you have some sort of insider information?"

Xander smiled and turned to look at her. He could see his own reflection in her eyes.

"I don't have insider information, just my intuition. Don't you think this project is moving too fast? It's like someone is speeding it forward.

"A regular construction project would need some time to get approved. Why did this one get approved so quickly?"

Grace gave it some thought and asked, "You do have a point. What could be wrong with this project?"

She fell deep in thought.

Xander shook his head in resignation when he saw that. He tried to divert her attention. "Alright, stop thinking about it. We'll know the answer in time."

Grace nodded and said, "That's true. But where are we going?"

Xander gave her a mysterious smile. "You'll know when we get there."

After he said that, he stepped on the gas. The car went on the highway and headed toward Xander's villa.

Grace only came back to her senses after the car stopped in his garage.
