In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 576

Lydia blushed hotly and looked around. "Don't talk nonsense! What if someone with bad intentions heard you?"

That was the difficult thing about dating a celebrity.

In the past, the leaked photos of Grace and Caleb had also aroused a lot of speculation. Eventually, the rumors had finally subsided after everyone found out that the two of them were siblings.

In the eyes of the world, Caleb was a top celebrity and couldn't have any rumored girlfriends.

Lydia didn't like having everyone's attention on her, nor did she want to affect his career. Hence, she was extra careful.

Grace handed Lydia's phone back to her. "You're being so obvious about it that people are going to find out sooner or later."

Lydia smiled lightly. "It's fine. I'll just say that I'm a fan of his."

The others made a face and wailed, "That's so cheesy!"

When they finished teasing her, Zoey suddenly said, "You're one to talk, Grace. You've been in a good mood lately, too. You're always smiling."

Grace was startled and almost slipped up. "Have I?"

"It's written all over your face."

She tried to avoid the topic. "You're exaggerating."

Lydia tactfully asked Grace to come with her to get the jewelry.

While they were walking down the stairs, she asked softly, "Will Xander come back for the gala?"

"He promised he would."

Lydia's eyes curved as she smiled. "That's very sweet."

Grace took out a cigarette from her bag and lit it. "Thank you for keeping it a secret."

Lydia suddenly thought of something. "I heard that Benjamin saved Matthew's son and that he got permission to sponsor the gala in exchange."

Nearby, a banner was unfurled. Hawkins Group's logo was printed on it.

Benjamin was very sharp and rarely made the wrong choices when it came to business.

Grace looked up and spotted Benjamin standing nearby. There were a few staff members next to him, reporting to him about work.

The temperature had dropped, so he had dressed accordingly in a black coat. He felt eyes on him and turned to look over in Grace's direction.

Grace walked down the stairs and headed outside, stubbing her cigarette out as she went.

She hadn't been truthful when she had answered Lydia. In her heart, she had never forgotten that meeting at the airport.

That first look was why she had tolerated all of Benjamin's antics for so long. Even today, she was still considerate toward him.

Luke was waiting at the door. "The gift is in the trunk of the car. It's been prepared."

"Let's go, then."

The owner of Blossoms Teahouse was staying at Premier Manor, which was in a very secretive location. The person who lived there must be very wealthy.

Luke said humorously, "No wonder he didn't even blink when the building burned down the other day."

However, the villa was located in a remote location, which suggested that he wasn't from an extremely powerful family.

Luke pressed the doorbell. A housekeeper quickly opened the door, asking, "Who is it?"

"Is …" Luke hesitated and looked at Grace. They suddenly realized that they didn't even know what the man's name was.
