In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 611

Xander saw that she was being obstinate and pinched her nose.

Grace snatched the cigarette from his fingers. It was too strong, and she wasn't used to it. She coughed heavily.

Xander patted her on the back.

"Then when can we do it?" She persisted.

Xander was finding it hard to stand firm. He clapped a hand to his forehead.

"Wow, you're keen."

It was an unfulfilled desire, after all.

Grace swatted him away and hid herself in the blankets. She scrunched up her face.

"You'd better not regret it!"

Xander had never been in a better mood.

Grace looked up. "Who is it?"

"He says his surname is Yeager."

Grace frowned.

A few minutes later, the door opened.

Grace had just sat down when Quentin tumbled in and slid to his knees in front of her.

"Ms. Lewis, Ms. Lewis, you've got to save me!"

Grace was shocked. She frowned. "Quentin, what do you mean by this?"

Quentin was sweating, and he knelt there, refusing to move.

"The other day, you tried to persuade me not to skimp on materials while doing business, and I understood what you were hinting at. I told the workers to stop transporting the stuff, but…"

The moment he mentioned it, Grace remembered. She remembered that there had been no further developments, but why was he now…?

"Are you really doing this kind of business?"

"I haven't done it for many years, but Ryan forced me to!

"He has evidence of what I did many years ago, and he threatened to expose me if I didn't work with him on the Eastwood project.

"I couldn't bear it, so I had no choice but to continue."
