In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 591

Shawn watched her figure, his eyes filled with infatuation.

"It's okay. I've seen Caleb's charm on stage."

He had come here with a purpose, but it wasn't to meet Caleb.

Grace smiled and thanked him.

At the exit, she happened to run into Luke. "Ms. Lewis, I didn't see Mr. Fulton."

Grace couldn't hide her disappointment, but she still forced a smile. "Xander must have been held up by something. He wouldn't just not come. Stay here and wait for him. Let him know I'm going to Amirate."

Luke agreed. When he glanced at the person beside her, he frowned. "Director Walker ..."

Seeing the distrust in Luke's eyes, Samuel immediately said, "Mr. Ziegler, are you looking down on me now because you've assisted two generations of presidents at Amirate?"

"That's not what I meant."

"Then, what do you mean?"

"That's enough." Grace didn't like Samuel's overbearing attitude. "Let's go, Director Walker."

…

Meanwhile, on the other side, the audience exit was crowded. Benjamin was swept along with the crowd. By the time he got out, he couldn't find Grace anywhere.

Larry said, "Ms. Lewis has probably already left."

Benjamin narrowed his eyes. "Is Xander still stuck on the highway?"

"I just received news that the Department of Transportation promptly repaired the road, and it's clear now. He should be out."

But it was too late. The gala had already ended.

Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief. Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. He was about to look over when he heard the sound of tires screeching.

Xander rushed out of the car. "Luke!"

Benjamin looked in Xander's direction, missing the man who quietly left behind him.

"Mr. Fulton, why did you just arrive?"

Xander was silent for a few seconds. "Where's Grace?"

"She just went to the office. She asked me to wait for you here."

Xander pressed his lips together. Even at such a time, Grace had still been thinking about him. His guilt gradually turned into a worry.
