In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 569

The construction site wasn't far from the venue. Jessica happened to be inspecting the site today. As soon as Grace and Caleb stepped out, she recognized them.

Ryan was groveling before her. He carefully observed her expression. "Ms. Landon, what are you looking at?"

Jessica's expression turned dark. "I'm waiting for your head to be put on a silver platter."

Ryan was shocked and said, "The job is done, and all the men in the crew are my people. There's absolutely no chance of the news leaking. Ms. Landon, please don't scare me."

Jessica huffed, glaring at Ryan. "You dragged me onto this sinking ship, but have you thought about how you're going to get off?"

Ryan was sweating profusely. "Ms. Landon, please be clear with me."

"I don't care how you do it. Just make sure you get the money soon! We can't mess around with this project."

Although Jessica wasn't very rational, she had this much sense. If things were investigated later, they could be imprisoned!

Ryan trembled and said, "I-I really don't have any more money. If we don't do this, we can't even get a day's work done!"

"You don't have any money?" Jessica stepped closer to him and said, "Then, go and find some by any means necessary!"

"I ..."

Jessica looked away. Suddenly, she lifted her chin and pointed at Grace, who wasn't too far away from them.

"See her? She holds absolute power over Amirate Corporation. She's got money. Think of a way to make some from her."

Ryan's eyes widened as he realized what Jessica meant.

"Amirate Corporation is so powerful! I can't do anything to her!"

"You must! You have no choice now. We're both doomed anyway, so you might as well try your luck with her. There's still a chance."

Jessica had a vicious look on her face. She stared at Grace and Caleb as they got into the car and left the place.

…

Grace didn't notice Jessica as her car drove past the construction site.

The fence was covered with red cloth with the words "Landon Realty".

Caleb saw that Grace was lost in thought and asked, "What are you looking at?"
