In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 555

Xander hesitated for a moment. He waited for a while but gave up when Grace didn't change her mind about telling him.

"It's getting cold in Pamore. Wear warmer clothes when you go out," Xander advised.

Grace instinctively glanced at her outfit for the day. It was indeed a bit thin. She had felt a slight chill when she had been outside with Benjamin earlier.

She didn't take it to heart and said casually, "Xander, you're abroad, yet you're still checking the weather forecast for Pamore."

"Some people don't listen, so I naturally have to worry more," Xander replied.

Grace smiled and asked, "Are you busy today?"

"No."

"That's good."

The car had already arrived outside Amirate Corporation. Grace got out of the car. Before she could say another word, she saw Ashley waiting, not far away.

"But I'm about to get busy. I'll call you tonight."

Xander didn't even have time to respond before Grace hung up the phone. Standing beside him, Hazel noticed his expression turn grim.

"The meeting has been going on for three hours. Should we dismiss everyone?"

Xander put his phone away and said, "Go on. Also, do something for me."

…

Back in Pamore, Grace quickly walked up to Ashley. "What's the matter?"

Ashley was holding a document in her hand. She commented, "Ms. Lewis, you look pale."

"It's nothing. What is it?"

Ashley followed her and explained, "Byte Technologies is facing some difficulties in partnering with overseas e-commerce companies. It's mainly because the clients there don't trust us enough. No one wants to take risks, so things have stalled for a while."
