Chapter 271 Elegance at the Racecourse

“Right. I think so too. But how could Mr. Fulton be interested in a secretary? Even if he’s

looking for a partner, it should be someone like Ms. Lewis, who has a comparable background.

Linda stood at the door, listening to her colleagues‘ words. A complex mix of emotions filled her, and

she silently clenched her fists.

Instantly, gloom filled her eyes.

Meanwhile, after Grace and Xander toured the company, she gained a rough understanding of the

company’s operations.

Xander asked, “What do you think, Gracie? Have you considered cooperating with Futurelink?”

Grace raised an eyebrow and said, “Do I still need to consider? I don’t want outsiders to profit.

It’s a done deal.”

Xander hummed in acknowledgment. “Okay. We can have the personnel from both companies

coordinate tomorrow and sign the contract as soon as possible.”

“Sounds good! Xander, we’re really efficient at our work, aren’t we?”

As they chatted and walked along the corridor, Xander couldn’t help but say, “Since we’re done with

work, how about we go out and relax a little?”

Grace’s eyes were filled with surprise. “Where do you want to take me?”



Xander pressed his lips together and walked up to her. “I remember you used to like riding horses

when you were a child. How about going to the racecourse?”

Grace was somewhat surprised.

“You actually remembered! But it’s been a long time since I last rode a horse. Now that you mention it, I

do feel like riding one. Shall we go to the racecourse?”

Without hesitation, Xander agreed directly. “Sure.”

Then, he drove with Grace to the racecourse.

It was a weekday, so there weren’t many people at the racecourse. As soon as Xander and Grace

reached there, some staff members came forward, showing a respectful attitude. “Mr. Fulton,

Ms. Lewis.”

Grace was puzzled. This was her first time at the racecourse, yet they seemed to recognize her.

“Bring that white horse over,” Xander ordered directly.

A staff member nodded. Following that, a beautiful adult white horse was brought over to

Grace.

At first glance, a hint of surprise appeared in Grace’s eyes. “This horse is really beautiful!”

Xander took the reins and led the horse to Grace. “Try it.”



The white horse seemed to understand and obediently crouched down in front of Grace.

“This horse understands!” Grace said, and then mounted the horse.

The white horse slowly stood up, taking graceful steps.

Behind them, the staff brought Xander’s usual black horse. After he mounted it, he rode to Grace’s right

side, and the two of them galloped on the racecourse.

Little did they know that Geraldine and Benjamin had just arrived at the entrance of the

racecourse.

After Grace had sent Geraldine to prison for stealing Amirate’s secrets, Hawkins Group had paid 30

million dollars to reach a settlement with Amirate.

Only then had Geraldine gotten the chance to be released.

Since the Hawkins had taken care of this matter, they let her work at Hawkins Group as Benjamin’s

secretary.

Hence, Geraldine was accompanying Benjamin to meet a client at the racecourse.

“Benjamin, when is Mr. Watson coming over? It’s so hot here. Shall we go inside and wait for him?”

Geraldine complained while using a document to shield herself from the sun.

Hearing that, Benjamin frowned slightly. He had no favorable feelings toward Geraldine, who had never

experienced any hardships. But considering the fact that she was his cousin, he had to put up with her.
