"Since she's so intent on getting divorced, then so be it!" Benjamin raised his voice, anger surging inside him. "Call the lawyer and set an appointment at City Hall."Larry didn't dare hang up yet. "Mr. Hawkins, she said she wants the divorce settled as soon as possible, so they're willing to accommodate our timing."Hearing this, Benjamin threw his phone onto the ground without bothering to hang up. He put a hand on his forehead, feeling his headache intensify. "You're a cruel woman, Grace!"…Over at Amirate's office in Pamore, Grace pushed open the door to the meeting room. She walked up to the executives with Emily.With their friendship repaired, Emily had decided not to return to Frenda. She wanted to help Grace with her career while handling their boutique on the side.Grace introduced herself and Emily. "Hello, everyone. I'm Grace Lewis, the general manager appointed by the Darai headquarters. This is Emily Jenkins, my deputy. "I hope we can work together for the
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 29 Here Come the Bitches Again
In the middle of the high street stood a five-story office building. The exterior of the building was entirely made of glass.Today was the re-opening day of Emily's boutique.It had been three years since she last designed anything. Now she was picking up where she left off.This time, her boutique was in a better location than it had been three years ago.The decor inside was unique, with bright lights shining over the carefully selected clothes and jewelry. Simple and elegant, it showcased the exquisite taste of the owners to all passersby.Back then, Grace's and Emily's shop, along with their unique outfit designs, had been all the rage amongst the socialites of Pamore. Many young women had coveted their styles.Even before the doors were opened, there was already a long queue outside. They were all rich ladies, waiting patiently outside with their reservation numbers.Emily had pulled Grace away from Amirate so she could help out with styling clients.They were busy all mo
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 30 Why They Had Gotten Married in Secret
"Invitations purchased from third parties are void," Grace said, lifting an eyebrow mockingly. "You certainly aren't worthy of my attention.""Of course," she added, "if you spend over 50 thousand dollars here today, I might consider serving you."The Quine family wasn't filthy rich. Yvonne only had so much money to spend, and after the 31 million dollars she wasted on the diamond bracelet, Grace knew that she was broke now.Even if she managed to scrounge up the money somehow, it would only help Emily's profits.Either way, Grace won.Celia, an utter idiot, began urging Yvonne as well. "Yvonne, let's buy everything in this boutique. Then she'll see!"Yvonne lowered her eyes silently, ignoring Celia."No money?" Grace's voice was just loud enough for everyone to hear her. "If you're broke, then why waste the money to buy an invitation just to ogle at things you can't afford? I'm afraid I'll have to call security to turn you out."The world of socialites was a brutal one. Al
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 31 Calm Down or Communicate
Three days later, both parties' lawyers were gathered at City Hall for the procedure. Grace and Benjamin were there on time. When they got the forms, Grace filled them in quickly and without hesitation. In contrast, Benjamin hadn't even started. She gave him a side-eye and said emotionlessly, "I'm a busy woman, Mr. Hawkins."Benjamin's face fell when she rushed him, and he finally started filling in the forms. When they were done, they handed them to the staff member through the window."Wait," Benjamin suddenly said as the female staff member was about to stamp the divorce certificate, making her stop.She had never thought that the first couple she would have to deal with today would be the president of Hawkins Group and his secretary.At first, she had thought that they had fallen in love and come to get married, but this was even more shocking. They were getting a divorce!Benjamin turned to Grace and asked in the same high and mighty tone he had always used with her, "Are

Yvonne was overjoyed. After so many years of waiting, Benjamin was finally hers. If he proposed to her right now, she would say yes immediately.However, the star of the show still hadn't raised his glass. If anything, his face was grim, and his moodiness was obvious as he pressed his lips together without saying a word.The image of Grace leaving was still replaying in his mind. It refused to go away.Celia noticed the awkward atmosphere and said, "Say something, Benjamin! It's no fun if you don't say anything.""Yeah, Benjamin. That jinx is gone now, so you should be the happiest one here. Why aren't you smiling?" Susan asked.Then, she looked at Yvonne with satisfaction. "All I want now is for you to marry Yvonne as soon as possible, so I can have a grandson."Yvonne's face flushed. "Benjamin and I would need time for that, Mrs. Hawkins."Benjamin scanned the three of them before replying in a cold, aloof tone, "No one should tell Grandma about my divorce."Yvonne froze. Wha
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 33 Fight for the Spotlight
"I respect your decision," Zoey replied decisively. "Call me if you need anything. I'll be there.""Thank you." Grace had just hung up when Emily leaned over."What are you going to do? That bitch is so infuriating!""Aaron's taking me to a banquet hosted by Pamore Chamber of Commerce tomorrow night. Every single rich person in the city will be there. That's where I'll expose her."Emily cheered her on. "Heck yeah, babe! Destroy them!"The next night, people showed up wearing flashy outfits that shone under the blinding spotlights. It was a lively event.Grace showed up fashionably late with her floor-length, diamond-studded dress. It was handmade and showed off her figure perfectly in a luxurious yet elegant way.No one could look away from her. Her makeup was stunning, accentuating her beauty. It gave her a sharp, cold look that intimidated people.Every rich girl who read the tabloids started gossiping when they noticed Grace. When Celia showed up with a champagne glass
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 34 Grudges Old and New
Benjamin couldn't answer her. He had always sided with Sussan and Celia, and he had never really listened to what Grace had to say. Was that one of the reasons she had divorced him?Guilt flooded him when he thought about that. "Apologize," he ordered Celia with a stormy look. She lowered her head but refused to speak.Aaron came to Grace's side. He had a domineering expression on his face and was clearly seething."You think you can heal three years of humiliation and the slander you've spread after the divorce?" After the bullying Grace had suffered at the hands of the Hawkins, the mere sight of them disgusted him. When his eyes landed on Yvonne, he said, "I've already found the culprit who slandered one of my company's executives."Yvonne nervously tugged at her dress under Aaron's frigid gaze. It couldn't be. There was no way they knew it was her. She had sent those photos anonymously, so she couldn't have gotten exposed."The article was completely baseless and
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 35 Fined and Jailed
"Benjamin, why are you negotiating with that unlucky jinx?" Susan grabbed Benjamin's arm. She had never seen him speak so humbly or so open to discussing things with Grace.Besides, Grace had always the one to follow their orders. Why had things changed?She marched over to Grace with an arrogant expression and tone. "So what if we're slandering you? What reputation do you even have? "You didn't say anything back when our family was yelling at you!" Susan screeched.But when she noticed Benjamin's expression fall, she realized her mistake.She had just exposed her attitude toward Grace for the past three years.Aaron couldn't take it anymore and glanced at Grace from the side."This is the mother-in-law and sister-in-law you've taken care of for the past three years? What kind of people have you been serving?" he asked.Then he remembered his sister's embarrassment and composed himself. "It's your choice, but if you end up embarrassing the family, I'll hold you responsible."
