In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 498

"Gracie, when you return to Frenda, there's something important I want to tell you."

Grace halted her movements, and her heart quickened its pace.

She raised her gaze, staring at Xander blankly.

After summoning some courage, she asked the question that had been on her mind. "Xander, is there something you've wanted to tell me but haven't had the chance to?"

Xander was confused.

Time seemed to freeze as their eyes met at this moment.

Grace felt her heart pounding, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.

Xander moved his lips, about to say something, when, unexpectedly, a ringtone interrupted him.

Grace snapped back to reality, quickly averting her gaze. She looked at the blinking screen of her phone and said in a fluster, "Uh ... I-I need to take this call."

She stood up, holding her phone, and briskly left the dining room. Once at the corner, she leaned against the wall and vigorously patted her chest. "Grace, oh Grace, why are you so nervous?"

Annoyed with herself, she hit her head a couple of times and stomped her foot in frustration.

When her phone rang again, she finally answered the call.

"Gracie, why did it take you so long to answer the phone?" Lydia's voice came through the phone.

Grace cleared her throat, masking her emotions, and asked, "Why? Is something wrong?"

"Wait, Gracie, you sound so calm. Are you still unaware of what happened?"

Grace was puzzled. "What?"

"Go on the Byte app and see for yourself. You're trending!"

Surprised, Grace asked, "What did you say? I'm trending?"

But what was so special about this location?

"What's wrong with this location?"

On the other end of the phone, Lydia's faint laughter could be heard. "This location represents many things. Just read the top comments from the netizens, and you'll understand."

Perplexed, Grace opened the comments section of the video. The top comment read, "Woo, Ms. Lewis is enjoying commoners' pleasures."

"I thought the world's richest people were always high and mighty. I didn't expect her to be so down-to-earth. The food looks delicious. Did you make it yourself, Ms. Lewis?"

"Shouldn't your focus be on the location? It's Summitview Manor! It's in a luxury residential area that even the rich can't easily buy."

"Ms. Lewis is so much different from us."

Just then, Lydia said, "Gracie, your heiress persona is quite a success!"
