In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 609

Alexander was the eldest son in the Hawkins family. His mother had died in childbirth, and his father had married Susan almost right after that.

She had taken over the family assets and given birth to Benjamin and Celia.

The strange thing was that Benjamin bore a strong resemblance to Alexander.

This bothered Susan, and she disliked Alexander even more as a result.

If it hadn't been for Elizabeth's protection, he wouldn't have survived.

After they grew a little older, Alexander went to boarding school. He rarely went home until he started work.

After some time, nobody within the circle knew that the Hawkins had an older son named Alexander.

After his accident, Grace had appeared.

This strange woman had grabbed him and started gabbling nonsense at him. Benjamin knew that the person she had taken him for was Alexander, not him.

She had liked him for so many years because of Alexander, not him.

He didn't know why, but he hadn't told her the truth. He had simply allowed things to develop to this point.

Now, Alexander had come back all of a sudden.

Outside the room, all the rich young men were glued to the walls and the crack of the door. Luke was on his way to greet a guest when he saw them. He was startled. "M-Mr. Donegan?"

Timothy turned around at once and lowered his voice. "What are you doing here, Mr. Ziegler?"

"What are you all—"

They hadn't managed to hear anything at all.

Timothy did not know why Benjamin wanted to see his uncle either, so he waved his hand dismissively.

"I haven't seen mi— I mean, I haven't seen Ms. Lewis in a while. Where is she? Amirate is doing so well. How come there's no news of her?"

Luke was impassive. "Ms. Lewis is not a high-profile person. If you have something to ask her, you can contact her directly."

In the past, Timothy would have done so. But they were just friends; he didn't think it was appropriate to disturb her for no reason.

Timothy waved his hand and beckoned to his friends. They would go somewhere else.

When they were gone, Luke looked at the room with its closed door.

When Benjamin heard what Howard had said, he got up and pulled the door open.

"Thank you, Chief Donegan. You've already given me the answer I wanted. As for what happened in the past, I will personally apologize to Alexander."
