Chapter 54 What Are You Going to Do About It

“Ms. Lewis, I couldn’t stop him…” The secretary looked awkward.

Grace said calmly, “It’s okay. Shut the door.”

Cameron’s ribs were much better now, and the bandages on his face had been taken off.

“Ms. Lewis, I saw the Barnes Group project proposal. My name isn’t on it. Was it overlooked?”

Grace twirled a gold pen between her fingers, and her expression was indifferent. “It wasn’t overlooked.

I didn’t tell them to add your name.”

“Ms. Lewis, we agreed upon this.”

The smile on Cameron’s face had disappeared, and he looked sinister. “It’s not courteous to burn your

bridges.”

Grace gazed sharply at Cameron. “You should remember that I am your boss. Naturally, I have reasons

for my decision.”

Cameron gave up all pretense and flattery. He said through gritted teeth, “Ms. Lewis, you’re going

overboard.”

“Am I? What are you going to do about it?”

Grace laughed indifferently. She took out a thick wad of pictures and tossed them on the table, then

gestured at it with her chin.

“If I had someone like you on the project, Mr. Luther, I’m afraid it would cause trouble.” Cameron was

thunderstruck when he saw it. His legs trembled as he looked at Grace in shock You… where did you

get these?”

“I still have a lot more of these. Should I develop them for you, Mr. Luther?”

“No, no, there’s no need…

.Cameron’s stance weakened at once.

Grace’s slender fingers tapped/gently on the table, and she smiled scornfully. “It was just as I had

guessed. That night wasn’t the first time you had secretly photographed people.

“I can contact all of these people. If they find out that you had recorded them having S** with you, I

think they will be ready to murder you.”

Cameron’s heart was thumping like a drum. He hadn’t expected Grace to find out about his little hobby.

Yet, at the thought of the profits he could get from this Barnes Group project, he decided to

“Ms. Lewis, I won’t be threatened by these. Those ladies had also benefited from me.

“If you’re talking about public shaming, then let’s all be humiliated together. I’m not afraid of

that.

“Stop trying to avoid it. Add my name to the project team as soon as possible. Or else you’ll be in for a

hard time in future collaborations.”

“Don’t waste your energy. I meant it when I said I wouldn’t add your name.”

Grace’s demeanor changed. She gave Cameron an oppressive feeling, as if she had everything under

her control.

“Mr. Luther, if you tell me who’s supporting you in Barnes Group, I may change my mind.”

Cameron was so enraged that he couldn’t speak.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to say anything, but the moment he said it, he would be giving proof of that

person betraying company secrets.

Grace would certainly mention this to Albert in the future. Right now, Cameron couldn’t do something

as stupid as throwing his own supporter under the bus.

“You wait and see!” Cameron slammed the door as he stormed out.

Luke asked Grace, “Ms. Lewis, do we need to kick such a man out of the company?

“There’s no need for that. He has a web of connections, and now isn’t the time. I still need him to lure

out the big fish behind him.”

Grace instructed Luke, “Monitor his movements in the company and report immediately if there’s a

problem.”

“Yes.”

Luke said, “Barnes Group called and said that the meeting for this afternoon has been scheduled.”

“Understood.”

Grace suddenly thought of Timothy. “What’s Timothy doing?”

“I looked at the schedule. He’s taking the earliest flight to Mardovia today.”

“That’s great. There’s finally no one to annoy me.” Grace laughed heartily.

At noon, Albert called and said he was very sorry, but there was an urgent project development

seminar he had to attend.

If Grace and Benjamin had any questions about progress, he asked if they could communicate

Grace acknowledged it and took Like to Barnes Group.

She carried an Hermès Birkin bag in white crocodile skin, and she was dressed in an elegant, dusky

blue skirt suit.

Her makeup was perfect, and she walked elegantly into the conference room.

Benjamin was already waiting there, his long fingers resting on the table. When he saw that perfect

figure in blue, there was an unreadable expression in his eyes.

Luke pulled out a seat for Grace to sit down and then stood silently behind her.

Grace smiled lightly and greeted the directors who had taken their seats, and then raised her eyebrows

as she glanced at Benjamin. She said in an icy tone, “Mr. Hawkins.”

Benjamin was stung by Grace’s sharp indifference, and he felt a stifling anger well up inside him

However, he had no way to release it. The only thing he could do was reply in the same icy tone,

“Hmm”
