Benjamin smiled, seemingly knowing what to do. “Thanks, bro.”

With that, Benjamin stood up and left, leaving Frederick puzzled.

Early the next morning, Grace arrived at the office. It was the semi-annual board meeting. All of

Amirate’s directors and top executives had already gathered in the top-floor conference

room.

As soon as she entered the office, Luke handed Grace a document, saying, “Ms. Lewis, this is the

financial statement for the past six months and the financial accounting for the same. period.

“In the first half of the year, our company has accumulated profits that have already surpassed last

year’s total profit by 10%,” Luke said with obvious excitement.

They had not only achieved last year’s annual performance but also exceeded it by 10%. This would

be a significant accomplishment for any leader, but Grace had achieved it in just half a

year.

“Ms. Lewis, if we present this data to the old folks on the board, they will surely admire and respect

you. Your bet with Director Walker is as good as won.”

Grace listened to Luke’s words without showing any extra emotion on her face.

She took the document and looked through it. The calculated profit included the Dunhill project and the

profits from several unfinished projects.

“If we exclude the Dunhill project, how much profit do we have left?”

Luke hurriedly replied, “Ms. Lewis, if we exclude that, we’re still 30% short of last year’s performance.”

Grace nodded. “Got it. Let’s go to the meeting.”

In the conference room, Samuel sat in the second-in-command seat.

Before entering the conference room, he had already seen the financial statements for the first half of

the year.

Grace indeed had strategies, and the company’s performance was thriving. However, it still fell far short

“In the first half of the year, Ms. Lewis relled on the Dunhill project to achieve such high profits. The

second half of the year is usually more challenging, and there’s no project as good as the Dunhill one.

I’m afraid she’ll lose this time.’

Hearing that, Samuel felt smug, but he politely replied, “What are you talking about? Ms. Lewis was so

confident when she made the bet with me. I’m just going along with it.

“Now she’s doing her best to improve the company’s performance, so it’s too early for us to say

anything.”

“Haha, you’re really modest, Director Walker. We should learn from you.”

“Amirate indeed needs a central figure like Director Walker.”

“When you become the head of the company in the future, don’t forget us old folks.”

Samuel chuckled. “Rest assured. As long as everyone works diligently for the company, no one will be

mistreated.”

Grace, who had just reached the door, overheard their comments. Luke was about to push the door

and say something, but Grace stopped him.

“Ms. Lewis, these people are simply despicable.”

Yet Grace just smiled. “We can’t control their mouths. Let them say whatever they want. Our goal is to

make them realize that Amirate belongs to the Lewis family, not the Walkers.”
