In the Lap of Luxury

Chapter 306 Useless Trash

The note read, "You won't get anything from me! My life is worthless. It doesn't matter if you kill me."

Grace tore the paper apart, sneering, "You think you're tough! Do you think I can't find out?

The men remained unmoved.

Grace spoke up. "Pamore, Max Stiller."

One name sent them into a puddle of confusion, and the men seemed nervous.

Grace narrowed her eyes and said, "I guess I was right."

"No, this has nothing to do with Max. We didn't like you and wanted to shut you up."

Grace didn't believe their excuses.

"It's a bit late for all this now," Grace said, already standing up with her back to them, her tone cold.

"If you're acting worthless, we'll treat you like trash!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Grace finished speaking and left without looking back, and the others began to plead desperately when they realized Grace was serious.

"Ms. Lewis, spare us."

"We were wrong."

"We won't do it again."

"Please, give us a chance."

But Grace said nothing and ignored them, walking out mercilessly.

Aaron couldn't help but say, "These people are despicable. We've given them a chance, and they don't appreciate it. Now they learn their lesson."

Grace finally stopped. Her eyebrows furrowed. She said, "I have nothing to do with Max from Pamore, and I haven't offended him. Why does he want to kill me?"

Aaron's face turned grave when this was brought up.

"This matter is complicated. I'm already looking into it, and we'll have results soon."

Grace nodded and said, "I'll handle it when I return to Pamore."

With that, the three of them left.

…

At the hotel, George was already waiting at the door.

He had arranged the highest standard of accommodation for Grace and ensured her safety with top-notch security since the incident at the mines.

"Ms. Lewis, if you need anything, just let us know. We are ready to serve you at any time."

Grace nodded politely. "Thank you, Mr. Lockwood." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"Not at all! It's what I should do."

Xander added, "The partnership details with Acme Group have been finalized. We can sign the contract whenever you want."

George was delighted. He exclaimed, "Thank you, Mr. Fulton and Ms. Lewis, for giving us this opportunity. We will do our best to ensure the success of this collaboration."

"Since there's no other issue, let's set a date and sign the contract." Grace sealed the deal with one sentence.

…

The next day, Acme Group held a grand signing ceremony and invited reporters from all over Dunhill.

Grace and George sat in the front seats and signed their names before everyone. Then, the venue erupted in enthusiastic applause.

Kenneth was watching the news on TV. He was so angry that his blood boiled. They had lost such a good opportunity because of a single mistake.

There was a knock on the door, interrupting his thoughts.

"Come in."

Vivian walked in with some documents.

"Mr. Williams, please look at the budget for this new project."
