In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 535

"For what?"

"Mr. Jake was messing around with an assistant in the office."

Aware that Grace was Xander's friend, the assistant answered her questions truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Grace tilted her head slightly. Her smile was bright and piercing.

Jake didn't hear their conversation, but he clenched his fists as he approached them.

"What are you laughing at?"

Grace looked at him with her hands in her pockets. Then, she asked the assistant, "Who is this?"

Trembling, the assistant replied, "Mr. Jake."

So, this was Jake Fulton.

Grace noticed the mole at the corner of his eye, which made him bear some resemblance to Raymond.

Jake's face grew even darker, and he asked, "Which department are you from?"

The assistant was about to answer, but Grace stopped her. "So you're Mr. Jake. My apologies. I'm a new assistant. I just started today."

Jake frowned, his gaze falling on the logo on her coat.

"Why is an assistant wearing Chanel to work?"

He found it suspicious that this woman wasn't afraid of him at all.

Grace pulled her hands out respectfully.

"This coat is a fake, just very well-made. Mr. Jake, you wouldn't prohibit employees from buying high-quality fakes, would you?"

Jake's frown deepened.

Trying to be smart, his subordinate said, "Mr. Jake, this must be the new assistant who started yesterday. Didn't President Fulton—"

Jake's frown relaxed a bit, and he ordered, "Come with me!"

Grace followed him closely, and the assistant couldn't stop her in time. Grace quietly signaled a thumbs-up sign to let her know everything was fine.

Since the executive office had been turned into a storage room, Jake entered another one, which was half the size of the original.

Jake discussed work with his subordinates, sounding like a busy man. Meanwhile, Grace silently took in everything while performing her duties.
