The next day, Noelle rushed to Amirate to tell Grace about what had happened the night before.
"Joshua has an official girlfriend that he's been seeing for about three or four months. However, the Iversons don't acknowledge her existence, and her background is unclear. They just treat it as him playing around."
Grace was flipping through some documents. "For the Iversons, even both the Hawkins family and Hawkins Group put together are insignificant.
"Besides, Benjamin had exiled Celia to Astana. How did she come back?"
Noelle shook her head. "No one knows. I heard that Joshua erased all traces of her past."
This was interesting. Was Celia really that capable?
Grace twirled the pen in her hand. "How were things last night?"
"Joshua and Timothy were like oil and water. Timothy tried to trick him into slipping up but failed despite trying the entire night. He was furious."
Grace couldn't help laughing at the idea that Timothy had failed for once.
"Celia was at the table playing cards with the rest of the women. The other ladies were afraid of Joshua, so they gave her a lot of advantages. She won quite a lot of money and got all high-and-mighty about it. She looked down on everyone!"
Noelle got angry again when she thought about Celia's behavior.
"I wouldn't even have spared her a glance in the past, but now she's somehow gotten herself into this position and is lording it over everyone."
Grace felt resigned. She poured Noelle a glass of water. "What would she be without Joshua as her benefactor? You're the heiress to Elysium Bank You don't need to stoop to her level."
Noelle deflated at once. "What would I be without Elysium Bank? We're the same, to be honest."
Grace was startled.
"Grace, my father still wants me to have a marriage alliance."
"Why? The Global Chamber of Commerce is doing well, even by international standards. They're on par with Elysium Bank."
She knew that Noelle and Timothy already had feelings for each other.
