"Are there many regulations you have?" Aaron retorted with displeasure.The officials present trembled.Even though this wasn't his home turf, Aaron's commanding presence naturally intimidated them."There are hundreds of projects where Pamore and the Lewis Corporation collaborate. What do you think would happen to Pamore's GDP this year if I pull out the investments and sever these partnerships?"Aaron casually tossed his pen on the table.At that moment, someone knocked on the door, signaling to the head official. "A document has come down from above."Ten minutes later, the official returned, nodding respectfully to Aaron. "Tomorrow morning, you may visit Benjamin."Given the economic impact already caused by the troubles at Hawkins Group and Amirate, Pamore’s GDP would inevitably hit rock bottom if Aaron were to withdraw his investments.Having achieved his objective, Aaron got up and left while surrounded by a group of people.The official finally breathed a sigh of relie

All remaining traces of humor in Aaron's eyes vanished, and it was replaced with an eerie gaze."What would it take for you to take the money and release Grace?"Benjamin's adrenaline heightened. He responded firmly, "I won't take it."He wouldn't take it.At least for now, Aaron had to respect the man's boldness. He adjusted his cuffs calmly and gradually stood up. "So you want her to go to jail.""Aaron, the Lewis family had always been respectable people, with every generation more outstanding than the last. Tell me, what would happen if one of them happened to have been in jail?"Benjamin burst into laughter. He had probably pictured the Lewis family being criticized by the public. "Then, the Lewis family name wouldn't remain untarnished anymore. The Fulton family probably wouldn’t accept Grace either. Even Grace wouldn’t be able to accept this version of herself."Benjamin slowly analyzed the situation. It was as if he'd found the most amusing thing on earth. Leaning ag

"Are you talking about Joshua?" Xander leaned against the desk, passing over a document. "Why were Hawkins' tax issues only exposed now? Why weren't they discovered before? "Benjamin's amusement park project resulted in several deaths, yet the issue was quickly resolved without consequence. This was all because he had powerful support behind him."Aaron quickly skimmed through the document, understanding most of it. "You want to target the person behind him."He had powerful people supporting him. This was something Xander had realized during Jessica's incident. He had been biding his time, waiting for the opportunity to catch a bigger fish. Now with Benjamin walking into the trap, it was a good chance."The second-in-command in Pamore isn’t someone you can just go against." Aaron disagreed."Didn't you hear last night? I've already made my move."Xander, feeling restless, needed something to calm his nerves. He lit another cigarette.Aaron then recalled last night's meeting,
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 797: Applying for Medical Parole
On the fourth day of her detention, Grace met with Luke.Compared to her anxiety the last few days, Grace was now much more composed. "How are things on the outside?""As soon as you were detained, Amirate lost all forms of leadership and fell into complete chaos. Fortunately, Mr. Lewis had arrived in Pamore to take charge and stabilize everything. Curious about your future, there have been all sorts of speculations amongst the public."That was all within her expectations. She tapped her finger lightly on the table and wanted a precise answer. "Has Xander been released?""That... I'm not sure. There are many speculations, but without an official statement, we can’t be certain," Luke responded carefully.Grace changed her approach. "What has Hazel been up to lately?""She has been making trips to the Securities and Exchange Commission for the past few days, but there's been no movement in the last two. Perhaps I haven't been watching closely enough."From his answer, Grace confi
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 798: Only She Became the Victim
Caleb, full of grievances, was about to speak when he heard noise from outside the door.It was Xander returning from outside, although he had only gone down to the lobby to retrieve a document. His steps were steady, his face expressionless, showing a change only upon seeing the Lewis brothers."Mr. Fulton." Hazel approached him first.Caleb immediately turned around, surprised upon seeing him, "Xander? When did you get out?"He had seen recent news and wondered when it happened.Hazel responded, "A couple of days ago, Mr. Caleb. It hasn’t been announced publicly yet."Caleb ignored her. "I was asking him. Are you Xander?"Hazel immediately fell silent.Xander signaled to Hazel and then approached. "It's just been a few days. I've only just been released.""You're okay now?""You could say that."This response triggered Caleb's defiance. He threw his cap aside. "Grace was detained at the airport while trying to retrieve evidence for you.""I know." Xander's expression was

Hestia arrived in Pamore and was stopped at the airport by a high-ranking official. He spoke respectfully, "Madam Fulton, it's late, and Mr. Jarvis said there aren’t many restaurants that suit your taste. He had a chef prepare some dishes and asked me to deliver them to you."Hestia glanced at the food box in his hand and managed a smile. "Tell him that if he considers me a friend, he needn't bother so much. He should pay more attention to his wife. That's only right. I'm not interested in entering a life of trivial domestic concerns. Please decline it for me."Once a person got married, no matter how wealthy they were, they were bound to deal with mundane household affairs—a truth Hestia had realized early on when she married Raymond.The man left shortly after, embarrassed.Hestia, on behalf of Xander, had returned to the ME Group headquarters to seek help from her contacts. This time, her secretary, Karina, had also come along. Now, Karina spoke up, "Mr. Fulton has escaped dan
In the Lap of Luxury Chapter 800: She Changed Her Testimony
"The specifics of that accountant aren't fully in my grasp yet, but she certainly is one of Joshua's people."Joshua and Benjamin conspired against her and Xander, framing her to this point. Grace couldn't help but feel disdainful. "He invested 400 million, and there's a contract. What would happen if he can't make up the funds?""He would be deported, and he would never be able to partner with any domestic company again.""Does he even have that much money?"Luke hesitated before responding, "No, but from what I understand, others are already working toward this.""Aaron?" Grace immediately asked.Luke looked around and wrote a message on a piece of paper, which Grace quickly readIt read, "Xander has most likely been released."Grace took a deep breath. Her thoughts were a mess. Then, she spoke, "Ensure that we keep track of that accountant's movements. I don’t just want Joshua deported. I want him to pay for those Samson lives."Although Luke agreed, he still expressed conc

"But it's all in the past, isn't it?" Samson smiled bitterly. "We still have to live our lives. How will you manage in Pamore if you refuse to make amends? What will you do in the future?"Shawn paused in his steps. Similar advice had been given to him before by Angus and Spencer more than once."Samson, you think I should let go too?" Shawn gestured to his face. "This disfigured face, a ruined future, wasted years—if it were you, could you let it go?"Hearing this, Samson felt a pang of sorrow and shook his head. "I know it's not easy. But it wasn't that the team didn't support you in time back then. We didn't receive the command. The person who gave you the wrong deployment time was dismissed, wasn't he?"He felt that Shawn was torturing himself."I can't get past it." Shawn turned away. "Besides, I am no longer Alexander. I am Shawn now."Samson didn’t know what kind of psychological burden Shawn had been carrying these years. He didn’t expect anyone to understand. As for lett
