Grace clenched the paper in her hand, a cold laugh escaping her lips.

Luke frowned. "Ms. Lewis?" "I'm fine. I just can't believe that the man who has stabbedin the back countless times would choose now to do it again." As she walked out, she bumped into Samuel, who was delighted.

"Ms. Lewis, where are you rushing off to so angrily?" Grace glared at him and snapped, "You don't need to worry." "Byte Technologies is in trouble, and you must be overwhelmed. I've always said these emerging industries are just bubbles waiting to burst. But you wouldn't listen." Grace stopped in her tracks and retorted, "Even if it's a bubble, I'll bear the consequences." "Can you afford it? Don't forget our bet. If I win, you have to resign from Amirate Corporation and never show your face here again!" Grace clenched her fist tightly. Never in the past year had she felt such immense pressure.

This project with Byte Technologies was her most crucial one yet.

"It's too early to discuss that. Let's wait and see." Grace left, sharp and determined. Samuel spat after her, loathing her deeply. But his mood improved as he recalled the project in Eastwood.

ŚwGrace tapped the steering wheel and said, "Luke, you seem experienced in this." Luke looked down and answered, "I've dealt with these situations before." "Then, you should also know that for them, it's all for one and one for all." A woman appeared at the villa's gate, ready to leave. Grace took opportunity to step out of her car and approached her. Coerthet belongs to englishS "Are you Mrs. Thorne?" EBerkeley was well into her 40s, but she looked like she was only 30 years old and exuded elegance and grace.

Estopped and looked at Grace. "And you are?" "My nis Grace Lewis. You can callGrace." Upon hearing this, Ewalked past Grace and commented, "You're Matthew's business partner.' Grace followed, "You know me?" "I've seen your non his documents." "Then, you must understand—" "No need to say more. I won't cforward with any statement of solidarity or shared hardship. If he's capable of keeping a mistress, he should be capable of cleaning up his own mess!" Egot into the back seat and signaled to the driver to leave.

Grace quickly blocked the car door. "Is he the only one at fault for keeping a mistress?" Elooked up sharply and asked, "What do you mean?" "This isn't the place to talk. How about we have a chat over coffee?" Ten minutes later, the two women sat in the sunlight by the window at a café.

Eleaned back in her seat and said, "Speak quickly. My tis limited." Grace didn't beat around the bush. She took a stack of photos from her bag and placed them on the table.
