In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 567

Even thought Grace had had several sleepless nights, she had little time to rest.

When she reached Amirate Corporation the next afternoon, Luke had been waiting for her for quite some time. He immediately said, "Ms. Lewis, the issue with Byte Technologies has been resolved."

Grace was surprised. "Resolved?"

She had contacted Amirate Corporation's overseas clients, but she hadn't expected things to be settled so quickly.

Luke smiled and said, "They said two groups of influential clients suddenly joined in. I looked into it. One of the groups belongs to Fulton Group, and the other is Hawkins Group's overseas clients."

Grace immediately understood why Luke was smiling. She wasn't surprised that Xander had helped her, but Benjamin's willingness to step in despite the circumstances was somewhat unexpected.

"That's enough. With those clients and Amirate's connections, Byte Technologies can operate overseas."

"And the Hawkins Group ..."

Grace fell silent for a moment. "He owes me, after all. I deserve it, so there's no need to say more."

Luke took note of her decision.

…

Back in her office, Grace was restless for quite some time. She had been thinking about the card Jessica had used. She had a feeling that things weren't as simple as they seemed.

"Have there been any recent activities on Jessica's side?"

Luke thought for a moment. "Landon Realty is focusing all its energy on the Eastwood property. Besides meeting some related personnel, she's been socializing and playing cards with some wealthy ladies."

"Has she met Benjamin?"

"Not that I know of. At least our informants haven't reported anything."

Grace thought for a second, then took out her phone to text Xander. "Under what circumstances would a man give a supplementary card to a woman?"

He replied instantly, "Who's this about?"

"Just asking."

Grace couldn't help but smile wider as warmth spread through her heart. "You're so thoughtful. Have you given one to someone else before?"

Xander replied, "Never. I've never loved anyone else."

She stared at those words for a long time, her heart fluttering.

Just then, a soft cough sounded at the door. Grace instinctively looked up and was startled to see Caleb leaning against the door frame.

She had no idea how long he had been there. He had a mischievous look on his face.

"Caleb? When did you get here?"

"When you started giggling like that." Caleb walked over and jokingly wrapped his arm around her neck in a chokehold.

"Come clean. Who are you chatting with that's making you so happy? Are you in love?"

Grace gasped for air. "I ... I was watching a funny video!"
