In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 503

Grace said apologetically, "Sorry, Mr. Barnes. Something urgent came up, and I need to handle it. Let's stop the discussion here today. We'll keep in touch in case something crops up."

With that, she left in a hurry while talking on the phone.

Albert stared at her retreating figure in doubt. He ran after her and said, "Ms. Lewis, you seem really worried right now. Did something happen? You can tell me. I might even be able to help you."

"Thanks for your kindness, Mr. Barnes. I don't need any help right now."

The elevator doors opened, and Grace rushed in. Then, she gave the bank a call. 50 million dollars was doable for her, but it might be difficult to get it in cash.

Thanks to Grace's special status, the bank readily agreed. However, they needed an hour to prepare the cash.

At the same time, Caleb also received a text.

He was in the middle of a shoot for a magazine cover. As soon as he finished reading the text, he stopped the shoot.

He dialed Lydia's number, but the call wouldn't connect. When his manager saw him in this state, he quickly asked, "Caleb, what's the matter? Did something happen?"

Caleb grabbed his jacket. He didn't even have time to change out of the clothes he was wearing for the photoshoot.

All he said was, "There's something I need to take care of." Then, he left the set in a hurry.

On the other hand, Grace was anxiously waiting for the bank to deliver the cash. However, Xander found her first. Grace asked in surprise, "Xander, what are you doing here?"

"Something must have happened for you to request such a huge sum of money. I had to ask Mr. Ziegler to find out what happened. Were you able to find out who the kidnappers are?"

Grace shook her head. "I don't know! Lydia leads a very normal life. She wouldn't make enemies so easily."

"Then, who are the perpetrators? Why would they suddenly kidnap her?"

Grace frowned. "I don't know yet. But no matter what, we have to rescue Lydia first."
