Chapter 192 Setting Bouridaries

He had thought that their relationship would become less tense after this incident.

However, Grace just took a check out of her pocket.

Benjamin’s face darkened. “What do you mean by this?”

Grace raised her eyebrows. “A new Bentley only costs 5 million dollars. The remaining balance is just

to express my gratitude to you, Mr. Hawkins.”

Benjamin was furious.

20 million dollars?

She was just throwing money at him.

He had only done what he did out of a basic instinct to protect her. That was all.

Why did it seem so different in her eyes?

Seeing his grim expression, she remained silent.

Grace continued, “20 million dollars should be enough. If you don’t think it’s enough, just tell me a

number.”

“Grace! What do you think of me?” Benjamin looked angry.

He was still a patient.

Didn’t she care about the relationship between them?

Susan and Celia were watching beside them, flabbergasted. Was 20 million dollars nothing to

Grace?

There was even a hint of envy in their eyes. Grace really did come from a very good family.

Ever since Benjamin had limited their finances, even taking out 2 million dollars had become difficult.

They had a sudden urge to take that check.

“Grace, what are you doing?” Susan suddenly asked as she walked toward Grace.

She sneaked a glance at the check, her eyes shining.

When Grace saw this, she gave it to Susan and said, “Take it, Madam Hawkins.”

Susan was delighted. She was just about to reach out and take it when Benjamin stopped her.

“Mom, come here right now!”

Susan felt that it was a huge loss.

They were talking about 20 million dollars! What was the point of not accepting 117

Benjamin was furious. Who did Grace think he was?

Grace had seen through Susan’s thoughts and stuffed the check in her pocket. “Madam Hawkins, since

you’re Benjamin’s mother, please take this check on his behalf,”

When Grace finished speaking, she turned around and left.

20 million dollars would repay the debt she owed Benjamin, and they would be even.

To her surprise, she met Frederick the moment she stepped out. He had rushed over as soon as he

had heard the news.

“Well, Ms. Lewis, what a coincidence!”

Frederick was still as lackadaisical as always. There was even a hint of mockery in his tone.

He had never imagined that Benjamin would put his life on the line to save Grace. How touching!

“Ben is fine, right?”

Grace didn’t want to talk to him, so she said, “Go in and find out for yourself.”

Unexpectedly, Frederick sniggered.

“Judging by your expression, I expect that there’s nothing much wrong with him. But I’m pretty touched

that he was willing to risk his life to save you. He’s such husband material. You must be really moved.”

Grace remained silent but rolled her eyes at him.

“If I were to be moved over such a small thing, then should I just forget about all the stuff he’s done to

hurt me?”

Frederick scratched his nose awkwardly.

“That’s not what I meant. I mean, after this, you can see that he’s sincere about you, right? Why don’t

you consider giving him a chance?”

After all, Grace and Benjamin were now on par with each other. They were a perfect match,

As long as Grace was willing,

If they got together again, they would be the ultimate power couple!

Grace’s expression darkened as she listened to Frederick.

“Do you think it’s possible?”

After all, she wasn’t a masochist!
