In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 590

It was none other than Jessica.

She had been there the whole time, witnessing Grace's brilliant victory.

The confidence Grace radiated stabbed Jessica deep. That was something Jessica had never experienced before. She couldn't comprehend how Grace could be so fortunate.

"You ..."

Jessica took a deep breath.

"As far as I know, you have a bet with Grace. If she can't increase Amirate's performance by 30%, she'll pack up and leave. If she succeeds, you'll give up your decision-making power at Amirate, right?"

Samuel's expression turned extremely ugly.

"Now it seems that not only did she succeed, but she probably doubled the performance. You lost."

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let her achieve this so easily."

Their limited vision was to blame.

"There's no use in blaming yourself now. If I were you, I'd settle this before the board meeting is held."

Jessica's tone was chilling. Startled, Samuel narrowed his eyes. "Ms. Landon, do you mean ..."

"Tonight is a good opportunity. The venue is close to our construction site. Director Walker, I can only help you up to this point. What you do next is your choice."

Her words were full of underlying messages. She didn't want to stay there for another second, so she got up and left.

As the audience slowly left, only Samuel remained seated. He was on pins and needles, and beads of sweat fell down his face.

Jessica was right. If the board meeting were held, Grace would undoubtedly force him to give up his decision-making rights. Perhaps he wouldn't even get his bonus.

He couldn't just sit and wait for his doom.

As Grace left the stage, her assistant quickly handed her a coat. When Grace lifted her head, her eyes fell on Shawn.

Most of the audience had left. Shawn was sitting alone, exuding a distinguished air. Not far away, some girls were whispering, trying to guess if he was a celebrity.

Smiling, Grace was about to approach him when a voice called out, "Ms. Lewis."
