In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 666

Grace's black eyes were very bright, and there was a firm resolve in them that no one else had. She looked at Benjamin, who let go of her guiltily.

"I did hide things from you in the past, but I've never done that since we got divorced. Although it's late, I'm sure you know how I feel about you."

"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about before we got married."

Benjamin swayed, and he pressed his lips together tightly. He didn't speak for a long time. "What?"

Grace hadn't wanted to expose him. In fact, she had initially planned on just treating him like a stranger if they met. Since Benjamin insisted on pestering her, she didn't want to be taken for a fool.

"If you had admitted it yourself, I would've still admired your guts as a man, even though it's late. But it seems that you don't even have the courage to admit it." Grace spoke slowly, watching as Benjamin's expression turned gradually darker.

"Does your older brother, Alexander, know that you married me in his stead?"

Benjamin turned as white as a sheet.

So, she knew all about it.

How had she found out?

After a long time, he spoke with difficulty. "You met him?"

Grace didn't answer directly. "Don't you think that you owe me an explanation at this point? You knew that the person I was looking for was Alexander, not you.

"Not only did you fail to tell me, but you even pretended to be him and married me. You made me slave away like a housekeeper for your family, and you wasted my youth!

"Was it fun, Benjamin?" Grace walked closer to him with every word.

He retreated backward. He didn't dare to meet her eyes.

Being exposed felt even worse than he had expected. He felt lightheaded, and his vision seemed to be turning black. His heart grew heavier.

"You knew about everything, but you just watched me sink deeper and deeper. You trapped me in Pamore to be your secretary and slave away for your family for so many years! Don't you feel even a shred of guilt toward me?"
