In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 607

After they left, Xander crouched down and lifted Grace's face, which was flushed red.

"Why are you acting so shy? You took the initiative."

She forgot that Matthew also lived in the area. She didn't expect him to pass by just at that moment.

Grace avoided his eyes.

"I blame you for flirting with me outside and embarrassing me."

Xander was speechless; her unreasonable ability to argue had always been unparalleled.

The doorbell rang. Luke had arrived.

"Ms. Lewis, Mr. Walker's whereabouts are unknown. We contacted the bank, and there's not a penny in his account.

"The construction site is under investigation due to the kidnapping case. We'll trace the funding issue within two days.

Grace had expected this.

"Mr. Walker borrowed a considerable amount of money at high-interest rates to invest in the Eastwood property with Jessica.

"Even if he doesn't show up, those who lent him money will come knocking on our door. Assign someone to keep an eye on them."

Luke nodded in agreement.

"There are rumors circulating within Amirate. Do we need to respond?"

Grace pondered for a moment.

Taking action against Samuel was necessary, but influencing the other directors wouldn't be good.

"Tomorrow is Monday. We'll have a meeting, and I'll handle it."

It quickly became evening as the two discussed.

The aroma of food wafted from the kitchen, and the housekeeper brought out dish after dish. Xander came out of the study and offered, "Stay and eat together."

Luke quickly waved his hand.

"Absolutely not. I have work to do tonight."

Grace also tried to persuade him, but Luke refused.

"I'm just happy that you have someone to take care of you."

"Mr. Zieglar, you're not young anymore. Have you ever thought about marriage?"

Luke looked embarrassed at the mention of this.

"I have."
