In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 543

Early in the next morning, Luke reported, "I've managed to schedule a meeting with Theodore."

"How did you manage that?"

"Given Amirate Corporation's status, meeting the president of a small company is quite simple."

Grace smiled and asked, "Where will the meeting take place?"

"At the café downstairs at Amirate."

Meanwhile, Benjamin had just arrived at his office to find Jessica waiting for him.

"I knew you're always punctual."

Ignoring her, Benjamin asked, "What is it?"

"Given the current trend, Byte Technologies will be finished in a few more days. I'm here to remind you not to think about extending a helping hand to Grace."

Jessica smirked with satisfaction.

Benjamin looked at her with disdain. There had been no news from Grace's end recently, which had worried him slightly.

"Are you done?"

Jessica's expression darkened.

"Larry, see her out."

Larry promptly entered and gestured toward the door. "Ms. Landon, this way, please."

Jessica cast a deep look at Benjamin. "Benjamin, you gave me this leverage. If you try to help her, don't blame me for telling her who's behind it all."

"Larry," Benjamin said sternly.

Without needing Larry to act, Jessica left the office on her own.

Benjamin loosened his tie in agitation.

Just then, his phone vibrated with an incoming call from Grace. He frowned, feeling a mix of excitement and guilt as he answered.

"Grace?"

"Benjamin, are you free? I need to talk to you."

His frown deepened, and he asked, "About what?"

"Have you heard about Byte Technologies? I have some questions I'd like to ask you. You know, I'm desperate and have no one else to turn to."
